It's getting no hype because it doesn't have these two very important things: 1. First person 2. No thinking required mindless shooting action in first person. 3. Well, it DOES need guns and it has them, good job but it will still flop because of the lack of 1 and 2. If you think it's because it's not on consoles then you're a noob. (Also I think half of it has to do with Starcraft; even though Blizzard has gone wacko Starcraft 2 is greatly over shadowing every other RTS.)

Oh I am hyping it.  I find that relic makes strategy games better than Blizzard but I do really love Blizzard games.

I cant wait for the new death animations.

This will be RTS of the year if it comes out this year.

If it comes out next year it's going to be competing neck and neck with Starcraft 2.

Amazing... First and second reply are hermits showing they feel superior to the shooter loving console gamer. Hermits truly are the only ones on SW that deserve their bad reputation.

ok tell me then why do generic games like haze, cod3, dark sector get hyped ?

if this was a FPS and on consoles it would surely have gotten hyped by now.

even halo wars doesnt get hyped coz it a RTS.

I have yet to play the first one, much to my dismay. Should I get it on Steam or is a retail copy advised? Dawn of War 2 will also be on Steam, right?

I'm hyping this as well as Empire Total War.

With those 2 games SC2 can get cancelled for all I care.

I'm hyping it a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 9 here in GS. If it gets lower than 8 then its a flop.

Well SC2 is more competitive..not really gameplay centric like the other games.

Its like the CS of the RTS world..Basic gameplay but very good for competitions..which is how i see SC2

Really looking foward to it.

Relic seems to be pushing it into a very different... however better direction than DOW1.

RTS's are for people who have moved on from chess. I've never liked chess.

I've tried a few times to get on with RTS's, I just don't like them and find them tedious.

DOW is the only RTS ive seen where you actually get the race and units grow on you. WWAAAARRRHHHHGGG hehe

every unit has a personality that they grow on you and you actually say their in game battle cries!!

Lord knows how many ingame quotes there is but they are all uniqe and make the game worth while

I'm thinking about posting an info thread on this game when it's only a few weeks from release. So far, I'm collecting info as it gets announced.

I don't actually know all that much about the 40k universe, but I love what I do know, and when I see what I love being represented with such stunning detail and faithfulness to the real thing, and when I'm gonna be playing an RTS like CoH with such rich and incredible factions, then I absolutely can't wait for that to happen.

I'll definitely get this and Empire: Total War, and possibly Starcraft 2, Company of Heroes: Tales of Valour and Sins of a Solar Empire: Entrenchment (if they release in 2009). RTS fans will be absolutely wet next year.
