Yea and dumbified cover system, no mention of last stand mode which what kept dow2 from being dead for long time, and the pics look like something from dow2 just modded. |

Not as good as the intro trailer for the first Dawn of War, but pretty close. Lets hope the game is just as good, even though I believe the RTS genre to be on life support as it is...
RTS on a console or for the casual (console) gamer = does not work
That is why RTS is a niche genre now after ruling pc gaming for a few years decades ago. Niche = not enough profit for the shareholders = let us rather make multiplayer shooter XYZ or qte clickfest 1138. Rinse, repeat.
I am looking forward to DoW III. Yes, I am not afraid to say that I enjoyed DoW II, too. It was much moren an ARPG than an RTS, of course, but I liked the story and the characters, and the gameplay was alright. |

Sounds like they are taking the best parts of both titles
UNLEASH THE GIANTS
Take control of towering war machines and tip the balance of battle in your favor with the biggest characters in Dawn of War history. Turn the tide with the mighty Imperial Knight (Space Marine), the clattering Gorkanaut (Ork), or the haunting Wraithknight (Eldar).
COLOSSAL BATTLES
Dawn of War is famous for its epic action and those immense clashes are back - but now they're off-the-scale. Wage war with massive armies across violent volcanic terrain or onboard battlecruisers travelling fast through space.
CALL UP YOUR ELITE
Take your battle plans to another level by deploying powerful collectible elite squads, each boasting their own special abilities and bonuses that will help you unlock and develop new attacking strategies to conquer your foes.
DESTRUCTIVE ABILITIES
Cause devastation on the battlefield with powerful super-abilities. Rain down total destruction on your enemies with the Space Marine's Orbital Bombardment, the Eldar's blistering Eldritch Storm or the Ork’s Rokks to counter your unsuspecting rivals.
THREE-FACTION CAMPAIGN
Learn what makes each force formidable through alternating missions. You'll soon come to understand the combat advantages of Space Marines, Orks, and Eldar and the rules of a universe with no heroes or villains… only war.
ONE ARMY TO RULE
Build your own universal army from the very first moment you are matched in a melee. Progress through battle after battle with loyal troops by your side across both challenging campaign missions and dominating multiplayer maps.
A NEW DAWN ONLINE
Your army will wreak havoc in online co-operative mode. Join the multiplayer community and forge new alliances - then turn the tables on your new 'friends' as they become foes in explosive, chaotic and competitive maps.
The trailer caught me off guard as I didn't even know there was a third title being made, let alone far enough along to have a four minute trailer of pure hype at the ready. Opened up steam, saw the DoW3 screencap and got blown away. |

DOW I was a masterpiece, DOW II was the pits. DOW I had large expansive maps, DOW II had tiny maps designed and scripted like MOBA lanes.
When companies know their game is crap, they resort to CGI only promos.
Given the complete use of CGI to market this, DOW III must be like II or worse. |

Based on pics from pc gamer this looks less like a w40k game and more like starcraft crap, further it actually looks worse and same at best as dow2 a game that came out what 7 years ago? Come on now.
Dow2 had 4 races at initial release. This has 3? They better sure make up for this with better campaign for each but dont hold your breath. Further, no mention of last stand mode, a mode that saved dow2 initially from being totally dead(before they also turned it into stand alone game).
Oh and I forgot... they said they simplified(dumbified) cover...

Initially the trailer looked like there maybe something to it but after about 40 seconds you realize nope.

Tired of the same 3 fucking races every time too. I miss all the races from the expansions in DOW1, they need to bring back some Tau and Tyranid and Sisters. Fuck Blood Raven, and fuck the Eldar.
Yes the usual 3 races but we are moving into more inferior progression, dow2 had 4 races and this has only 3, I guess they liked 3 to sync with only 3 races... Come on now give us dark eldar instead of eldar this time but nope lets do same races totally once again. |

Dawn of War was great, replayed it a while ago and was still very enjoyable.
Though on this I'm not liking those screenshots. I have no interest in blizzard/cartoon aesthetics and no interest in Dawn of War being portrayed in mickey mouse colours.
If it's not representative of their direction they shouldn't have released the images. |

There's a PC Gamer article with some screenshots. And it has base building.
I don't have it, I just came across it earlier in a google search. It looks decent. |

| Like others have said, it had better be a complete 180 from the direction they took DOW 2... Everything they've done since then has been pretty crappy, at least in comparison to the greatness that was DOW 1 + expansions and COH 1 + first expansion. |

That was epic!
Really enjoyed first two, so looking forward to this. They better bring back the awesome co-op campaign gameplay though.
Agreed! The full campaign co-op in the second game and it's respective expansions was fucking terrific. Co-op has been the primary motivator for me playing through them over and over again.
I really hope they do it again.

Looks promising, I loved the first Dawn of War... not the second so much. Hope this is like the first.
Same. After I wore out the first game, I put another 100 hours or so into DoW1 mods. Great game overall. The second one... still can't bring myself to finish it.
Looks like they dug up the trailer team that did the original (vanilla) DoW1 trailer; I love it 
*EDIT* Looks like they are claiming base building and large scale battles... that's the right direction at least.
