Turn off Gas/Asteroid Icons?
Can we get another option to turn these off? After playing this game for a few minutes, I can tell the difference. All I need is the circle showing the area of the Gas or Asteroid fields. I don't need that icon floating overtop as well. Just adds unecessary clutter.

The circle and the model don't match at all. Having detailed mode on is the only way to play if you want to use these things or avoid them. Otherwise, who knows if you'll hit a thing or not. It isn't a big deal for me but a way to get rid of the little box telling you 'asteroids = bad' & 'clouds = hidey place' would be nice.

Yikes, looks like someone is tired, and didn't understand my OP. Pressing Alt shows you the radius of the Asteroids and puts the Icon in the middle. Double pressing Alt makes them stay up the whole time. What I asked was this...

All I need is the circle showing the area of the Gas or Asteroid fields. I don't need that icon floating overtop as well.

I just want to see the cricles, the icons are redudent.

I understand.

You seriously whining about that small icon?

I'm starting to understand why Warhammer 40k games suffer with such fails from game to game. because community constantly whine about everything, including these icons. I'll look at you when you won't have any more W40k games at all because they're not profitable and community hates/blames developers on any random small thing from "this isn't as in tabletop/lore" to "I don't need this multiplayer because im singleplayer player"

In heat of battle we have a lot of "radius circles" and when one is marked with special icon, it's easier to recognize and differentiate these circles.

That icon is not what messes up the game. Stop blame devs about random things you don't like.

Wow...this was a simple request. I wasn't whining. No where did I blame, insult, or shame these devs in my OP. Nor did I say it "messes up the game". This is just a preference.

There are plenty of people jumping on the hate train because the game isn't perfect, or they made changes from 1 -> 2 that they don't like. I'm not one of them. In fact, I'm one of those that thought Dawn of War 3 was a good game. :steammocking:

Should probably check your ego next time you open fire. I'm sorry you got embarrassed by pointing out your mistake. Save your anger for those that actually deserve it.

Sorry man, I just always liked Relic's take on WH40k. Space Marine and ALL the Dawn of Wars were great in my book. DoW 3 just suffered a similiar fate as Diablo 3. Raging fanboys with missed expectations. Fine game on it's own, but because it didn't fit a specific formula, it was made out to be the worst game in history.

Problem with DoW3 is that it tried to attract players from StarCraft and MOBAs. In result it attracts only those who never played neither DoW1/2, neither StarCraft or MOBAs.

I mean, they added base building just for titles in game features. Your base stays in the corner of map like in DoW2 or any MOBA game. But in DoW2 it wasn't that bad because that RTS was about positioning and control of small army, not about base building. So in DoW3 we got "basebuilding" that does nothing except allows to write about it in features.

Graphic was really nice (I agree on orks), but other than that, the style was a bit childish and distracting.

I am angry because seeing all these really dumb complains about the game, next time developers will think on doing W40k game, they'll prefer switch to other setting. because W40k players are usually never satisfied with games. Either something doesn't fit with lore, or "WHERE'S MY RACE", or "WHY I CAN'T LEVEL UP MY FLEET VS AI" (you can do that in campaign ffs)

A simple quality of life request isn't a complaint. I know what you are talking about, but getting this angry just emboldens the haters and they then becomes a mission for them to destroy the game and the "white knights" defending it.

RIP DoW 3. :steamsad:

RIp BFGA2 if that blame/whine trend continues. Heck, some ppl want from it single-player only and they don't care about multiplayer, when BFGA2 was already built more around multiplayer with separate singleplayer mode. yet, they're unhappy... "I CAN'T SANDBOX WITH MY CHAOS/TAU/ELDAR" pepepeee
