If you go onto steam you can download custom made maps for free. I've downloaded about 5 now and haven't played all of them yet but they are a lot of fun and a good way to play new maps for free without the devs needing to pull resources from other developments.
We shouldn't have to do that tho there should be enough maps that we don't bored so fast, relic is just being lazy I paid $60 I expected more maps and game modes. I am expecting them to add maps in the form of a map pack like 3 maps for $15 or something, which will be really lame and should of been something that was in the game at release. Relic you clearly released a unfinished game, I wish everyone would stop sticking up for them, this is how we get unfinished games in the first place.

Leaderboards are great and all, but i was hoping for an actual RANKED system, perhaps ELO/Points, something like that. Give something to fight for dang it!!!
Agreed, Leaders boards are really lame and something I don't feel this game really needs at least not at this time, this game is missing so many features it makes my head spin, I am really disappointed relic.

"We shouldn't have to do that tho."
Shouldn't have to do what? You don't have to do anything. Don't act so entitled. You CHOSE to pay $60 for this game, so don't complain about your decision. You GET to download maps from customers who made maps. This is free. You aren't stuck with the couple that Relic made and you don't need to wait around hoping they'll release more. They will release more. That will happen, but in the mean time, enjoy yourself some free addons that your peers spent their time and energy making for us to enjoy.
This is not a thread that opened up for us to complain about our own life decisions. If you don't think this game is worth $60 than you shouldn't have bought it. You should return it. But don't blame the game for not being what you think you deserve it to be.
You sit here and you say "I want them to come out with a map pack of 3 maps for $15. This should have come free with the game, but it didn't" and in the same breath you tell me that you're unwilling to subscribe to the FREE maps that are available numbering in the 10s because... "we shouldn't have to do that."
You think its Relic's fault for releasing an "unfinished" game. You think that any developer anywhere wants to release a half finished game and then start making money. They don't. What they want to do is build engaging and entertaining games, that's why they got into the business to begin with. They're pressured by production companies and the community alike to release games asap. They money they make funds their next projects. That's just the industry. The $60 you spend on this game helps pay for the DLCs that you want. If you don't think this game is worth $60 than that is your choice, but don't shift the blame and act like Relic is forcing your hand.

The community shouldnt have to pick up the slack, on the lack of content for this game. not acting self entitled, I am giving my opinion on the current state of the game based on other $60 games I have played, I bought the game I think I am entitled to judge the game however want. Maybe it isn't relic fault maybe it is sega, but the fact still remains this is pretty weak, you can be a sheep lead by a blind Shepherd but I won't.

The community isn't picking up the slack, they're adding content and you're choosing to ignore it and complain because "relic didn't do it." Your opinion loses ground when it's not based in reality. Only sheep call other people sheep, why don't you try developing software before you start complaining about lack of content. People often complain about games lacking content when what they really mean is that the game doesn't offer them enough of the content that they want.
But you, you're different. You explicitly stated that you want more maps, but you refuse to use anyone's maps unless Relic made them... because... why again? Because you're mad at Relic for not making the maps themselves and don't want to use the community maps because Relic should've been the one to make them. You've lost me, it just sounds like entitled complaining.
You don't deserve anything except for the $60 you paid for.

Well for one i did go to school for computer programing/ video game design, so I think I know a little bit what I am talking about and I did say the community is picking up the slack, but they shouldnt have to, relic gets paid to make stuff for there game the more games they sale the more money they get, the people who take time to make maps are not getting paid to do so, and community maps is not going to help this game sell any better.
I'm never said I won't use the community maps, yes community maps are nice, but it shouldn't feel like it is required to download community maps which it currently feels like it is. there are very few maps in this game, no other rts game has so few maps even some mobas have more maps. Anyways I am just saying this game could use more official maps. Also this is hardly the only feature lacking in this game, it feels like to me they went the esports route trying to make it moba like with very few basic maps that are easy to balance, which they are not even balanced in Dawn of war 3 (a lot of people do complain about the design of the maps, I'm fine with how they are designed if they had more maps that would be a big issue but currently it is). I am fine with mobas, in fact I like to play them, but this is a rts and not just any rts it is Dawn of war sorry if I was expecting more considering the first 2 games had way more maps and game modes then Dawn of war 3 and that is just sad.
Also the average gamer probably isn't going to want to download maps either, so this game will never get that popular, which I'm sure you don't really care about, but that means less content in the future like more races or fewer expansion packs.
Face it this game is not doing very well in the game market, every review I have watched of this game have stated these problems, and tons of reviews on steam also say these problems so I'm not alone in thinking this way.
Any chance you can add the OPTION to disable hero units I would like to see how the game would play without them. Also just because I like having options. Please also add FFA and 8 player maps.
@Qmotion said:
We need new maps.. There are only 2 maps for 2v2.. This is insane. PLS add more maps
And more game modes, only one game mode really relic, really? It seems like this game was made to be some sort of esport competitive game, what ever happened to just playing a game for fun?
They thought it wouldn't be profitable enough, and they were wrong. Esports are just a fad, and one that's going to die out sooner rather than later.
@Alchemist13 said:
Can we please get so.e things this game basically needs? like key rebinds, I would like to be able to move around the map with WASD instead of the arrows. Also I a true full screen mode, because having the windows task bar at the bottom messes up my camera movement, but there is no way to get rid of it. Please relic these are basic features that almost all games have
Holding Alt is too hard for you?
Alt + WASD = move camera with WASD.
I play in fullscreen mode every time I play with no windows task bar.
Figure out what you're doing wrong.
Would you like Relic to play the game for you as well?

These are basic features that ever $60 game has why doesn't this one it isn't even that difficult to add these things there is really no excuse not to have these simple options. Also not everyone plays the game the same way as you do what is wrong with making more accessible for everyone to use? (probably because of some dumb esports reason) are you really that simple minded that you don't realize not everyone has the same computer or set up that you have, so problems some might have with the game you might not have, all I'm asking for the options to tailor the game to how I would like to play this game.
The full screen thing must of been a bug because it isn't there anymore when I am playing and I didn't change anything with my settings
Here is a link to a post a I made on why more options is important for game. If you still don't understand why.
Good decision, take your time. There are a lot of things to address, and it's encouraging to see Relic putting lots of thought and testing into it. We need to address power swords, assault leap, true damage, doctrines, Scorpions...etc. These are all foundational changes that require time. Taking a break until the patch is out, and look forward to playing again soon.
@Katitof said:
So, since patch was moved, any chance we might get a sneak peak on some of the set in stone balance changes?
Expectations are extremely high for it.
And now the light of my faith in this game has vanished.
3 days, man. Prepare your patience.
Relics, we believe you won't fail.
Dow3 can have a great future.
Please do not make a "dog fight" big maps with tiny meet-point as like some people are posting. That is boring and gives no opportunity to make tactics and strategies. Those basic map designs are excellent but we need more of them.
Does anyone noticed a patch notice? I've got a handful of bookmarked threads concerning some game-breaking experiences, but I'm not sure if I should bump them.

Eh probably not? Seeing the amount of money that gets flung around during esport events its only growing bigger and bigger every year. Some with prize money pools in the millions for the big tournaments. Dota, SC2, and LoL all have very robust esport scenes, with literally tons of cash flowing through each event in the form of sponsors.
