Always expect it to be worse, so you either get surprised if it is better, or indifferent if it was as bad as expected. I won't put any hopes on DoW 4 until I see real live gameplay showing they learned in fixed mistakes from Iron harvest. Knowing how they barely improved the game after launch and shortly abandoned, I really have low expectations for DoW4

'P.S Please add all the races like in DOW 1 and the Tyranids from DOW 2 or at the very least Eldar. They are the best after all as you monkeighs should understand' - You don't want much do you?

DOW4 has a big chance to be the best sequel in the series. 70 single player coop missions, classic gameplay from the first one with base building. Last stand itself if done correctly can feed the game for ages. The power of WH40k brand is totally different from an unknown like Iron Harvest. It was their first project in rts genre and it wasn't even worse than COH3 relic slop. Have some faith.

DOW3 being a League of Legends wannabe has left such sickness in my gut.

They must have gotten the DEAL of a lifetime to literally abandon this game to develop for Games Workshop. I'm an avid Relic Entertainment fan, but they really dropped the ball with DOW3. I will still support them as they are one of my favorite developers right now, but i am disappointed still.

As for this dev, can't remember their name for the life of me, I will be supporting this new game of theirs full price on release as a show of good faith and a desire to see that game succeed. I did REALLY like Iron Harvest. I grinded the MP for a bit. I would enjoy playing another game of theirs.,

That is not for the devs to decide and lets be honest, GamesWorkshop will milk it hard as they are going fully BlackRock/ESG Corpo slop. Expect not more than 3-4 factions. I also highly doubt that GW will allow Adeptus Astartes Chapter customization, as this could hinder shareholder value in form of future DLCs.

However, nothing would bring me more happiness, than being proven wrong on that matter, but I doubt it could occur.

Don't expect too many DLC factions in DoW 4 anyone who understands math would understand that with the unique melee animation thing they are going for every new faction will become exponentially more work to produce, unless they start copy pasting animations

Thankfully the Devs do not have to Listen to a lossing Mindset like yours and can Continue to Successfully Develop NOT based on your shallow & negative outlook.

If they can do it with 4 Factions then they can do it with More Factions.

The Engine Supports the Math and the Hungry & Inspirational Developers can make it happen.

Relic:
Homeworld---> Impossible Creatures---> Dawn of War 1

King Art:
Iron Harvest---> Dawn of War 4

I hope DOW 4 does well and the devs keep expanding it for a long time to add many factions. Everyone from DOW 1 plus Tyranids would be ideal. The synced melee animations for every combination of units could be a huge obstacle to expanding the game so much, but we'll have to wait and see; I'm hoping that feature isn't as ambitious as it sounds like it could be.

I love RTS that have lots of factions, and none of my favorites are going to be in at launch. At least the Necron roster has been made a lot cooler since DOW 1.

Iron Harvest walked so Dawn of War IV could run. I firmly believe DoW 4 will be the best in the series. I think its going to have a very bright future.
