Anniversary Edition but only 4 races and content from vanilla game?!?

[Weidenwiesel]

I just installed the Anniversary Edition but after launching the game I only get the main menu for the original first title, only the original first 4 races and only content from the first title.

Here is what the store page says:

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Anniversary Edition now includes:
-Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War
-Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Soulstorm (not there after launch)
-Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Winter Assault (not there after launch)
-Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Dark Crusade (not there after launch)
-Nine Playable Armies (nope only got 4)
-Four unique campaigns (nope only got one)

What's going on?!?

I have the exact same issue here. Thanks for taking the time to report this! Do you also get a crappy old square resolution only?

How did you start it? For me it's not even starting up.

It is a packet of 4 games with one campaign each campaign.
In Soulstorm you have all races.
so
4 games = 4 unique campaigns.
9 Playable armies playable in Soulstorm.
Do the math.

The are all separate games, not DLC or expansions for Dawn of War. You have to install the game you want to play, and they are not backwards compatible.

In DoW, you get Space Marines, Orks, Eldar and Chaos. Winter Assault adds Imperial Guard. Dark Crusade adds Tau and Necrons. Soulstorm adds Sororitas and Dark Eldar. As stated: these are separate games (and always were), and do not unlock new factions in the previous games (and never did).

Dawn of War only has 4:3 resolution; the other games all have widescreen.

I purchased the anniversary edition last week and got all four games. If you don't see them all in your library, you should open a customer support ticket.

Yeah, this is by design. They half-assed the release, forgot to include the USK for age-rating (which is why you can't buy the game in Germany and some parts of Europe) and didn't even consider adding in ancient community patches that already added widescreen support.
All they did was basically add a SEGA intro video rofl.

That's so super enormously stupid.
This update takes the trophy of "shiitiest Anniversary edition ever".

What's worse, I already owned ALL titles before the Anniversary update and did not rebuy.
The Anniversary update just REMOVED all Addons from my library it seems, i.e. I now only have "Anniversary Edition" in my library and Winter Assault, Dark Crusade, Soulstorm ARE GONE,

That's why I initially thought the "new" Anniversary Edition would just be that, a combination of all.

I got screwed. Hard.

Talk to customer support. Seems like a very simple fix.
