Its a great game and the graphics are top-notch but it still has some serious balance isues. Some units are still way overpowered (Space Marine Dreadnoughts, Eldar Fire Prisms, etc.)
If they manage to balance things I think it will be an amazing game.
But until then theres really no reason to use over half of the units in the game.

Yeah... but it looks awesome. I really enjoy the capture and hold aspect of it. You build up squads with leaders that have specific bonuses and stuff... Granted it is just another rts but they can't really get any further in the genre right now. A sad fact that is limiting most types of games anyway. No innovators sadly anymore. Just people doing what they are told so they can make the most $.

Marines with rockets and/or upgraded antitank youvehicles work fine against those. However fire prisms were nerfed in beta but the nerf didnt do almost anything to ppl who play eldar (stunning your own units, didnt see many ppl go fire prisms and have melee units around of their own to stun)
Maybe I dont know how powerful those things are as I would always early game rush and kill 1 opp and by then 2ppl vs 1 nothing could save them from the zerg and even if they had machines my sm w/ rockets did fine.
Before fire prisms were nerfed I got rocked by an eldar using the prisms and the bugged commander lightning shit. After it was fixed I never saw it much, as I had developed my rush to stop eldar before they had time to get much of anything to stop a horde of melee units.
lol i like how they boasted during beta how the retail version will have single player campaign
I dont know if you can call 11 missions where you can only play one of the 4races really a single player campaign. There weren't any cgi movies during the campaign either. I have seen better story lines made for war3 player made campaigns then this that last longer.

The single-player campaign's ending was really f*****g weak. It ends making you think "ok now I gotta do the final mission" and it just goes to the credits.. absolutely no resolution to the story. I ended up beating it on hard thinking that maybe I can't unlock the last mission on normal difficulty to find out nope.. that's actually it.
What a crock.
But the story was decent, I liked the single player campaign except for the ending. I just hope that with the obvious expansion they let you play as the other races in the campaign mode.
It looks like the toned down the Dread's some more for release which I think was needed. The Space Marine squads really are awesome with missle launchers.

its just another RTS |
The game is good. However, the graphics are nowhere near being top notch (they're fine, just nothing extraordinary). It lacks a deep technology tree, meaning after a few games it's always the same thing, and the maps are really confusing to move around. As Frax said, it's just another RTS that will get played for a few months and forgotten. It doesn't have the power to be a classic like Warcraft or AoE/AoM.
It also came out the same week as Rome, and it's not half the game Rome is.
