Yes, I did mean blood ravens 🤦♂️I got carried away with the AI haha.
I was about to say don’t you dare rip on the blood angels unless it’s something they actually do.
That's what you get for using Abominable Intelligence!
@@slyllamademon2652 I was about to say "How dare you mix up everyone's favorite kleptomaniacs with Sanguinius' boys."
holy shit, i was just watching the vid and about to comment exactly this. poncha is quick!
would love to see another game like this with the Eldar..
Holy shit that intro with the marine speaking and breaking the 4th wall is hilarious.
Just wait till the unification mod video. I went hard with that.
@@PonchaYT that video is easily the video I'm the most excited about coming from you.
@@PonchaYT you do konow that 7.0 is coming too right
@@cjfalcon648 oh yeah. I’ve just been starting with the 6.9.2 content to get ahead but it will all be in one video.
@@PonchaYT okay thanks. Do you know when the next update going live? Just thought you know
these videos are definitely worth the wait, some of the best 40k videos
There's something you didn't mention. The new enemies were added to the game even if you don't own the DLC. They are added to the game by default, and it is an option to deactivate them. What it means is that people who don't own the DLC are facing Nurgle's lawnmower & cie without any of the benefits from the DLC.
THERES AN OPTION TO DISABLE THEM?! Goddammit, that stupid lawnmower is just annoying, I don't even own the dlc... I'd like to disable them, but I enjoy encountering the Blightbringer
@@Mogeko_Ranger At the start of the campaign, there is an option to activate DLC enemies or not. (It's on by default).
@@NobodySoldier
Oh I see, I'm still in the middle of my campaign when the dlc dropped so I was never given that option. Explains why the first boss fight of the game was so difficult
idk, lawnmower aint that bad imo
@@spaceflex2444 They are not the worse but they are oppressive, especially when you have high priority targets around.
On top of that, the DLC brought the guys with the bell and death guard with rocket launcher (they are a big threat).
My hopes for the future of Chaos Gate would definately be a Death Guard PoV campaign. 'The Lords of Silence' is widely considered one of the single best books Black Library published in many years and it has shown that Plague Marines can make compelling, likeable even, protagonists. And there is just so much you could do with them from a gameplay standpoint. GK are one of the single most homogenous faction in the setting, but with Nurgle followers you could go wild when it comes to different mutations and other dark gifts.
I am so on board, that would be amazing! I would gleefully spread the love of papa Nurgle!
The worst part besides the dread having that dumb helmet is the fact he can't execute
I don’t know why that wasn’t added. Seems like something that could have done.
It is actually very customary for chapters to adorn their dreads with their helmets, especially venerables
@@thebaron9405 I like the helmet but the devs not adding being able to execute enemies seems like it should have been.
@@thebaron9405 I know. It just looks off on that dread pattern. If it was a Contempter with Grey Knight tats it wouldn't be an issue imo.
@@PonchaYT ámen, i really wanted to see a dread just uppercut a guy into mush
IIRC, the recent patch make us able to take the Dreadnoughts to Final Mission as the Rear Guard
Yes you are correct.
"The return of a primarch brings new life"
Angron: I see I've already been forgotten..
Haha. Angron was technically the medic so maybe I can still be right.😉 just look the other way.
@@PonchaYT bahaha true
Firaxis did it right with XCom Enemy Within by overhaul the entire game around all the new things they added and integrated them into the main campaign while not disrupting but improving on it. Hopefully Duty Eternal getting patches and improvements enough to make it feel natural with the main campaign.
My first thought when i saw your video in recommendations
"oh wait its the warhammer guy isnt it?"
"i need to watch that"
my only complaint is that i need more.
I have never seen a bad Poncha video. Every upload is a treat
That 4th wall breaking...
You're spot on with the balance of this game. I haven't played since the patch but what really got me was the fact the free added enemies into the game were just lumped into the patrols throughout missions. You could play as tactically as you like but since there was usually 2 plague marines with grenades to destroy your cover, it didn't matter. This is especially painful in the early missions as the cultists chip damage suddenly is threatening.
Great video 👍
Appreciate you Acknowledging, we are never going to see the old dreadnoughts as the primaris filth overruns the setting rip
This hurts because the old dreadnoughts look 10x better than the primaris dreadnoughts
can we appreciate how good the voice for the dreadnaught it (unlike dow3)
I actually like the dreadnought's voice lines from DOW 3
@@courier665 heresy
@@Tzar-TZ nice argument corpse worshipper
@@courier665 its an objectively bad voice for the dreadnaught
@@Tzar-TZ Okay but why
Great audio work throughout the video.
Many chuckles much like haha
Space Wolves have all the dumbest pre-Primaris ideas like a dreadnought with an axe or space marines riding big wolves, that's true :D
Magnus liked this
Great video Poncha!
Great video! Took me by surprise how well this was put together. Great stuff, new subscriber!
Always happy to see you upload, looking forward to the unification mod video, hope you cover the new space marine games and maybe even total war warhammer ones too !
your edits are hilarious! Great job, keep it up. This is my first video from the channel and trying to decide what edition of the game to buy. you helped me out a ton!
Thanks mate.
Great review score system!
I dont know how well it sold, but its quite clearly one of the better 40k titles out there (which says a lot).
Personally i hope they get the chance to do a sequel but this time its Deathwatch.
Why?
Gives more options for customisation of "your dudes" - all the different chapters and different weapons.
And allows for variety of enemies. One mission is against Nids, one against Orcs, the next vs. Eldar, and so on.
I'm pretty stoked for your Boltgun review
Honestly is brilliant so far. I can’t wait for you to see it and what I’ve done.
Just dropping in here to tell you how much I love your videos. At this point you are my go-to 40K Game person.
Big plans ahead mate. I got so much coming for videos. Thanks for the kind words.
Ponch has blessed us this day.
Take your time, poncha. I greatly appreciate the level of research you put in your videos. 🙂
... even though that upsets the almighty algorythm 😅
I’m going to really try and push myself back to getting videos out quicker with the same quality.
@@PonchaYT i wish you best fortune with that 😄 but dont burn yourself out 😅
WOOOO NEW PONCHA VIDEO
I loved the generated voices!! How did you dooooooooo that! Great video :)
trade secret haha
love the intro
Worth noting the dreadnought is now usable in the final mission on the outside part.
Ah yes another son of russ. Our dreadnought is the beat
I really love your bingo system. That is really cool and smart.
was about time :)
love your videos
Don't worry about not being able to fight Mortarion with your Dreadnought; Nurgle's Dæmon Prince and 7 Great Unclean One's would have destroyed it before it could say "For the Emperor!"
But.. but… I wanted to at least try. Haha.
@@PonchaYT I may be a little biased towards the Blight Father.
The solution for making use of Khornate assets is theoretically pretty simple, just take a page out of XCOM War of the Chosen and add missions with Khornate activity allowing for 3 way battles.
Summon in bloodletters to attack every0one in missions with a high bodycount, occasional "chaos undivided" missions with both Khorne and Nurgle forces working together.
Got my sub with that intro
The intro was golden
Another change I think would be good is the ability to customize the games difficulty, ie more enemies but fast wound recover times. Something like that would be really nice
they should have just made the difficulty options the ones from mechanicus
God dame that Chat AI is Brutal, True but brutal.
"You sold your soul to chaos so we could use you as a satnav, so shut up." _DAMMMME_ !
"Another strike force is pinned down, id say fuck em but they have a dreadnaught" Sounds about right honestly.
"Ugh, its smells like papa nurgles shitter, are you sure we want to take control of this ship? Purge it in holy fire." The fact that he knows what that smells like is HERACY!
Edit: The fact that the DREADNAUGHT is only for those missions is NO SELL alone. For god sake That thing would be AWSOME to play with!
Very nice.
Thanks for the review, always nice to hear your opinion on those multiple 40K games and projects. It's fun and informative.
About that, do you plan to cover the beta of Rogue Trader, in one way or another?
I will do a review. Unsure about beta. Maybe..
The best thing about this DLC is this review.
keep making videos man
That intro took me by surprise for sure but it's a welcome one.
However what Abominable Intelligence did you use?
I played the hell out of this game and loved it, before the DLC. I don't think i'll be going back to try the DLC out, it was fun but I've gotten my fill.
I do desperately hope they do more 40k games in this genre, but I'd really like to see something non-space marine. I don't even play the tabletop game, and I'm sick of em. I think Imperial Guard would make the perfect POV force. It makes sense for guardsmen to be more vulnerable and expendable, it makes more sense for guardsmen to upgrade their skills and equipment over time (since space marines - especially GKs - are ALREADY the elite of the elite with all the best gear). Plus, IG could bring all kinds of units as allies for variety. Heck, you could still bring a space marine, and you could make him an actual elite unit, next to the regular, mortal guardsmen.
This DLC is not worth going back for but the 2nd one is IMO. All around amazing DLC.
I'd love to see a Future dlc that adds a completly new campaign to the Game. Seperate from the original nurgle/Bloom campaign, but maybe referencing the story to establish a Timeline.
Instead of Deathguard and nurgle deamons, the Grey Knights could Fight Khorne and the World eaters which would be an opportunity to utilize the already existing assets and expanding in them.
Also it would Change the gameplay because World eaters would be significantly different as an enemy then the death guard. They could be less tanky, but instead faster and more Dangerous in melee Combat.
Intro is awesome. )))
I found using the techmarine to actually be insanely fun, and was a good way to hard counter a lot of the tougher enemies. Plasma cannon can be used to net cheeky enviromental kills or blast enemies out of cover or into more favorable positions, servo arm is a great way to stunlock a terminator or melta, hydraulic + bolter can actually kill entire groups of non-terminator marines entirely on their own, even on merciless difficulty. Also the ability to dominate enemy vehicles can be hilarious.
haven't really given it much of a spin yet but I can appreciate the fact that they seem to have been heavily inspired by the Mechanicus Tech Priests, particularly the Secutor discipline. They can't even use Overwatch, like in that game (although they can bring a Servitor to do it for them). Using their axes to destroy Armor is also a thing that worked well in Mechanicus.
Nice
Literally yesterday I wondered where this video was
You should honestly just be able to bring the dreadnought in anywhere. It's up to you to determine WHEN.
I'd honestly just love a sequel to this game with another chaos god as the main enemy. maybe Tzeentch as mentioned in the vid with a Magnus fight near the end to mirror the Morty one here. The gameplay and story were great, so more of the same in the form of a second game is all id really ask for and id happily buy it.
the idea of blood angels snatching a dreadnought like some dirty blood ravens makes me want to kill with a book. Codex astartes, to be exact. Other than that, great video
(Me trying to beat Ironman with this dlc enabled) - “Who would thought buying one dlc so small could endure so much pain, and he did Poncha, he did..”
"I'd say fuck 'em, we have higher priorities, but they have a dreadnought."
This is now canon to me.
It has arrived
Been waiting for this opinion video for sometime. I bought the DLC for SUPER cheap, but got ADHDed away for something else. Sad about the TechMarine as I was hoping it would have been worth to have something for those Non-Dreadnought missions (aka most of the DLC and core game)
I definitely want to check out this game eventually but I feel like it would be best in a year or two once all the content and patches are done. Seems like a work in progress still
Showing your face is a preference thing. Personally, I'm not on UA-cam to watch someone talking to a camera. Just give us depth and humor to your content and your good (which you already do :) )
you are right space wolf are the best brother
In my opinon, Chaos gate should make a big expasion/DLC where we get to play as the death guard. There are so many units they have acess to, stratagems and DOT based gameplay, that littearly all the groundwork is laid, for players to start as some basic cultist or plauge marine grunt, fighting guardsman, then vehicles, then space marines and knights as you grow in power and unlock more powerful classes, mutations and gifts of nurgle as you spread corrupiton through the sector, for this to work.
Sadly there has never truly been a warhammer game foucused on you playing as Chaos and truly digging into the potential of it. Chaos gate could allow that, espically as they are STILL adding new enemies to the game and new statagems for the death guard. It's biggest flaw/issue is that the gameplay mechancis and balance of the game are VERY delicate and easy to break for playing as the grey knights.
Being able ot be the deathguard can allow far more freedom and creativity for twists on the mechanics or whole new ones.
So much heresy in less than 5 seconds. You will be purged in righteous fire, Poncha. **BLAM**
Ooo would love boltgun review
my brother this starting is some heresy, but is good stuff :3
I think a Skirmish/Arena/Horde mode could be nice. Pick your squad, difficulty, map, modifiers and maybe have a couple of different enemy types you can fight against like Khorne, Tzeentch or even Slaanesh daemons. Like you said the khorne assets are already here so i think it would be cool.
It would also be a fun way to let people experience something like the dreadnaught whenever they want and let people kinda just mess around with stupid builds and loadouts.
I love the game, I finished it 3 times and I still playing it
I swear I must of imagined it or something, but I swear I remember the devlogs when the DLC was being advertised said that the dreadnought would only be available on certain missions, but the fact that so many people are surprised by that fact. Convinces me that I imagine that whole thing
I remember exactly the other way around lol
@@alucard197 perhaps I need to find the old videos then, I must of been really good at Gaslighting myself otherwise lol
Lads, how is this channel so unpopular, quality is top notch? That's crazy...
We will get there one day brother. I won’t stop till I’m there.
@@PonchaYT I did not expect you personally, but cool. I really like your videos, and they all look high effort. I've seen a few Warhammer channels, and most are much worse, but I guess they upload more frequently. Or maybe people just don't want to watch longer videos, in this era of shorts and tik tok. As the person much wiser that me said "That's crazy!"
@@legio1942 I really like edited videos over something put together in a minute. I don’t think I will ever go for quantity over quality.
@@PonchaYT I both understand and support, but it's just what algorithm loves these days. I have watched most of your videos multiple times, and I hope you keep your quality. Best wishes to you, buddy. Oh, and before I forget, I effing LOVE the "F the fans, we love money" skit, with corporate guy tossing money on half-naked primaris guy, and the resigned dude just doing his best to make something actually decent.
1:43 On the "show face" issue, one thing I see to much on YT is people show their face to much. When I sit down to watch a review, what I want to see is not the face but GAMEPLAY and listen to a witty written and well read script. Sometimes I not even watch the video, but just listen to someone's essay. So yeah, less is more quite often.
That intro made me spit out my coffee .. What TTS did you use ?
Big daddy dreadnought is wildin
Poncha, if you keep looking that good you can take up as much of my screen as you like ❤
Now now. You’re going to make me blush.
nice
There was just a giant region of space infected with korne rage possessions. They could make some use of those korne demons
Since they have already done the Khorne models, a small campaign with fighting them in a small scale campaign could be cool!
7:30 Blood Angels?
Surely you mean Blood Ravens!
They're the kleptomaniac chapter.
By Sanguinius! Us glorious sons of the hawkboi wouldn't dare steal a dreadnought! At least, not in such a crude and non-artistic manner.
And after Baal, we've got tons of spare Marines and chassis..Ask Dante, he knows the names of at least three fellas in every sarcophagus!
You must be mistaking us for the Ravens
things got so out of hands, even the Ravens "borrowed" your identity
Only space wolves, we need more space wolves xD
Chaos Gate Daemon Hunters is a remake sort of a a game called chaos gate
By the Emperor, yes!
How did you do the voices of the i inquisitor and the grey knight at the beginning?
Can you cover newest DLC? Enjoying your content mate
I will. A few other videos probably first.
@@PonchaYT Did you ever review it? I can't find it if so.
the upsides of this dlc so far, get to play as techpriest mommy and sweet nurgle asmr, combat servitors are neat i guess.. hope they could be used for in the normal game tho
Jeez, I thought you were dead. More vids mate.
what's the music from the first two minutes of the video?
So I rescued the dreadnought but I find that no matter what mission type it is, I cant find the dreadnought to deploy it. Is there anything after rescuing the dreadnought I need to do? Or upgrading a specific part of the ship?
You get a follow up mission to roster the Dread AFTER you do the Craftworld mission. This is the worst design decision in the DLC. Technophage missions start spawning after the first Dread mission but you don't actually get him on your roster to use him for like 100+ days depending on whether or not you rush Craftworld (which before this DLC was a bad idea all around).
GW would like to remind you of their motto.
From my own playthrough, the dreadnought is nearly useless. Only available in missions where the enemies have an unusually high amount of armor piercing/stripping attacks, while it's standing there in the open, for all the world to shoot at. Not a single mission that the dreadnaught was available that it could lean on the only defense it has, the armor.
I like that if the dreadnaught is 'killed', it removes the Greyknight inside of it. If you, for whatever reason, have some others in stasis, you can throw them into it and get it back up and running. It also gives some changes depending on the class that you toss into it. Still not enough to consider bringing it because of how much of a liability it is on the few missions you can bring it in.
Didn't find doing the DLC missions that much of a hinderance to progressing the main campaign, mostly because of how much having the frigate allows flexibility in deployments. Was able to keep it completely locked down because of the added mobility of 'doing' 3 missions in the time it would normally take to do 2 of them.
I can't really comment on how much of a drain on servitors it is, because after the first two missions I brought it on I only threw it out there to make the frigate missions into a near guarantee with no injuries. It was collecting dust on the ship the rest of the time.
Yo that dialogue tho xD
That voice work was pretty solid. What program or service was used to generate it?
haha just wait till the boltgun review if you think this was good. Elevenlabs
I loved this game and was so happy when the DLC came out. I liked the content but like you said, between the difficulty the new missions have, and needing to repair the dreadnaught turned me off and I never even got to the missions to get the cruiser. Hated I could only use the DN on "technophage" missions
Fr idk why they didnt just do it up like xcom 2. The Shen's last gift DLC is essentially introducing a possibly overpowered unit with a bit more finesse and sublety. You got a cool new unit, and were allowed to have it leave its mark on your campaign, you get to decide how big or how little it ends up being.
Chaos god expansion if they are willing to put in the work. Such as one focused on Khorne or Tzeentch or Slaanesh and focus on cleansing corruption to be similar to the plague mechanic.
I bought the Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters - Grand Master Edition because it was on sale and because it had the DLC for a cheep price. Did not have the base game and was waiting on it just to get myself a excuse to get it. The last turn based game I played was Warhammer 40000: Mechanicus and before that XCOM 2. Having big robot units was so much fun in both games so I knew It would be awesome to get a dreadnought!!! ,but having it only on some missions is absurd. Some modder needs to make a mod just to be able to bring him whenever we want.
The dreadnought reminds me alot of the mec suit from xcom
i have yet to play this. I keep trying to play it but never in the mood. ill get to it one day
could you do a video similar to unification but instead about mods for DOW2? i have heard there are some big ones that are quite good
I have been looking at those.
Chaosgate should've taken a page out of XCOM 2's DLCs and it's expansion, War of the Chosen. In WOTC, you can choose the option to either play the dedicated missions for Shen's Last Gift DLC and Alien Hunters DLC or just have them integrated within the expanded campaign of WOTC.
I've thought they've added dread to final mission with one of the latest patches.
You are correct.
