I wish 5 wasn't so clunky. The dual upgrades are the best idea ever
Agree, V is underrated.
Also, 5.5 mod make the game even better.
I unironically think 7 is really good (best since 3)
The biggest problem I have with it is the out of sync bug that's very prevalent in MP
Heroes 4 could have been great, but they fucked up with the Towns.
heroes 4 is my favorite heroes.
They messed up the artstyle in general. The music is great though.
anyone watching mekick right now?
I want to rape a heroes of might and magic ;_;
Post memes
Kyrre has a penis.
Oбкaкaлcя.
Necropolis is the only town they screwed up by mixing Inferno with it. The other towns are arguably better than their heroes 3 counterparts due to a number of improvements (e.g. bringing pixies back to nature).
Nah, chaos is even worse than necro. A clusterfuck of a town absolutely not worth of having the black fucking dragons on their roster. A disgrace to warlock and the dungeon.
Are there any memes that are NOT in russian?
Heroes 3 Succession Wars anyone?
This is an awesome mod.
Well they also fucked up inferno.
They also fucked up the towns by only giving you 4 creatures at once. That more than anything sent me back to 3 back in 2002
Legends of Eisenwald is better
And preserve's town lineup is a mishmash of absolute garbage
Some of the external lineups belong in there more than a fucking white tiger or the MLP unicorn
Oh shit it's finally out? I stopped following around last december.
0.8.1
Already playable. The art and the music is totally worthy.
Don't see nothing...
???
Man, my basic Russian is not enough for this shit.
I don't see anything funny. The joke is that troglodytes don't have eyes (and are immune to the blind spell in the game, since they are already blind.
>And preserve's town lineup is a mishmash of absolute garbage
Every creature of preserve is either an animal or plant (wolf, tiger, mantis, griffin, unicorn, wasport), a creature living in harmony with nature (sprite, elf, leprechaun, satyr) or an extension of nature itself (the four elementals, phoenix, faerie dragon).
What exactly is wrong with this?
Besides bringing back sprites and phoenixes from the older games, heroes 4 also made some other improvements to nature, like relocating the treasury to Order. Rampart was literally the worst possible town to have treasury, considering they are all about not being materialistic and embracing nature.
You reminder me of HoMM5 korean MMO elves Dungeon.
Makes sense, troglodites have no eyes and are thus blind
I always thought trogs were cute. Have they got rid of them yet? I played a bunch of the older ones and spinoffs like quest for the dragonbone staff but none of the ubisoft ones
Why is there no modern games with this aesthetic?
Just found out about Kings Bounty. Shits good but the music is something on another level
Pretty much since V was a reboot. In V's dungeon your tier 1 unit is some gay elf with a crossbow
My god, this looks fantastic. I loved Heroes 3 but Heroes 2 was the one that got me into the series and I always had sentiment towards it and actually liked the graphics more. Thanks for posting this.
>korean MMO elves Dungeon
They were literally dark elves from Warhammer fantasy though, to the point where I'm surprised they weren't fucking sued. Can't get more western than that.
good games but the units have way too much hp which makes battles drag out
>Succession Wars
Is MM6 set before or after Succession Wars?
I was very okey with the Dark Elves in the dungeons, that town needed a race with mind.
Because a cohesive theme wouldn't have to be put into 3 seperate groups, it'd just be 1.
Also how is a faerie dragon an extension of nature? You just didn't know where to put them.
Ah, H2... remember how fucking broken the evil warlock town was?
Lame. Now a trog with a crossbow would be much better
So before I buy 3. What exactly is wrong with Inferno?
Wizard town was more broken, titans could easily own dragons + you got extra spell at 5th level which was pretty nice.
Also.. HoMM6 fucked up Necropolis with "spiders cult"
>buying HoMM 3
You sound like an Inferno player all right
don't buy it, pirate the complete edition, then install HD mod
Why are they so damn good?
On the other hand it doesnt have turns. Turns are a huge kick into the pacing feel of the games
Your t1 sucks, everything is expensive, your t2 and your only shooter can kill your own dudes, you don't really have a unit that's the best in it's tier like with other towns, and your t7 is kinda meh
On the plus side you get demon farming and you can armageddon people easily. They're the worst town but you can still win
Link?
whats with russians and homm3?
Their shooters are not that great. AoE is often more of a hindrance than bonus. And you rely on shooters a lot in this game. Not to mention that it's your only shooter.
Tier 4 and Tier 5 are very awkward. Hornies are ok as they are cheap but Pit Lords cost a lot and are quite bad in combat.
And your final tier unit has every single advantage it could have - except from being strong. Devils loose 1v1 to most final tier units.
It would run on any toaster, was interesting play and was peak junk high fantasy. Russians dig junk high fantasy
>tfw can't run this shit on BotNet10
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
It's a good game.
HOMM 4 IS THE GREATEST FUCK HOMM3 NIGGERS
homm3 isnt bad though
>Because a cohesive theme wouldn't have to be put into 3 seperate groups, it'd just be 1.
What 3 separate groups? Units like pixies and phoenixes were always part of nature, it's only heroes3 that inexplicably removed them.
And it's not 3 separate groups, it's one consistent theme: nature. And it is actually consistent, unlike heroes 3, where you have shit like dwarves, characterized by living underground and DISLIKING the open air. Wtf are they doing in rampart. And green/gold dragons: basically just a reskin of red/black dragons. Again, how do they fit the nature theme?
>Also how is a faerie dragon an extension of nature?
They're good-natured dragons that act as stewards of nature. What is hard to understand about that concept?
>junk high fantasy
What does that even mean?
High fantasy before LOTR movies
Cyrilic, don't be stupid.
You have 10 seconds to post top 3 tracks from the entire franchise.

It's honestly the only series that has done "high fantasy but actually sci-fi as well" right
wizardry did it too, but they're both from the same era
I can't.
Literally love the whole ost
>All these retarded rhetorical questions and refusal to accept even a single criticism of 4
Yep, it's 4fag alright. Every single time I look in one of these threads you're here autistically whinging that people are being mean about your beloved 4
I have to ask, do you actually think 4 looks better than 3? Is it actually possible to be that wrong?
perfect
>live in Moscow in May
double perfect
Up to the point where autistic ''fans'' decided to death-thread developers when they learned about The Forge. It might've prevented disaster that 4th brought upon franchise.
That is one fat fairy
Newfags ruin shit every time
>All these retarded rhetorical questions and refusal to accept even a single criticism of 4
You do realize I said heroes 4 necropolis sucks earlier in this thread?
Are you such a baby that you throw a tantrum whenever anyone says a single positive thing about heroes 4? You have yet to point out heroes 3 rampart does the nature theme better justice than heroes 4.
What am I looking at?
HoMM3 Necropolis troops.

posting best fanfare. I feel like I heard it used in great teacher onizuka for some reason, but it's been a very long time so my memory might be hazy.
>Just found out about Kings Bounty
enjoy loving the exact same game 3 times in a row. I know I do.
No comment on the constant rhetorical questions and you stopped using them so I know I hit a nerve there.
No I don't, I even occasionally play 4 still, I just hate the cunt who causes the same fucking argument every HoMM thread because he can't let someone think his favourite game might be shit in some ways. Fuck, you were in here so fast you're probably starting them now
This has been happening for literally years and it's fucking retarded
Unironically kill yourself.
What´s the problem with Heroes V art style?
gargoyle are the only design i dislike.
>tfw just run with stacks of ranged units and range everything to death
feels good
Posting best town theme.
youtube.com
>get a phoenix summoned into the center of your ranger stack
>die
Too cartoony. Nival had very cartoonish design to its games in the 2000s. On the other hand the games aged more or less well thanks to it
>What´s the problem with Heroes V art style?
>generic overdesigned animu WoW shit
Why would you praise this?
What's the best of the more modern HoMM games, 5,6 or 7?
Well WoW was the hot shit, so everyone wanted to bank on its strong points
5 no contest
Look at this griffin.
Look at the top of its head.
I know. But is it just fanart? It's really well-done.
I remember everyone shitting on it a lot though, are the never ones that much worse?
Armored Griffin is a cool idea.
>tried 5 long time ago
>didn't like art style
>pixies were sexy tho, fapped to them
>got bored after 1 hour and never came back
If that's the best of the new ones then 6 and 7 must be horrendous.
7 is pretty good at its core but online doesnt work.
Griffin? More like Griffith lmao
How clanky is 4 for someone used to modern games?
they are
is it just me or 5 feels slow, as in unresponsive controls and too long animations/waiting times
Not shit PC btw
So, for someone looking for a nice clicking away game, 7 might be good?
if you can deal with uplay you should give it a whirl when its on sale.
Not just you, I didn't like it either.
>Broccoli Lords
every god damn time
The style is peak pauldroncore with excess detail all over
If I remember correctly you could see their bare ass on the battlefield.
>that kino HoMM mod for warband is never going to get a version 0.7
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
It seems like it's based on something but I don't know what
Wasn't there a christmas themed one with santa acolytes or something?
fuckin nice
I was playing one of the HoMM3 campaigns the other day and I think the gameplay hasn't aged well. It just felt like a fucking chore to do the scenario objective while making sure to move my 8 heroes to every point where they could get EXP, Levels, or a Skill
3do has some deal with the first western company to release pc's in russia after the fall of the iron curtain and homm 3 came preinstalled on most pc's
It's not that it hasen't aged well - the gameplay itself is just not for you. That's ok. There're many other games that might suit your taste
>homm 4
>good music
lmao its literally stock music u retards lol
amazing
got any more?
it's good stock
that sounds like the biggest fucking nothing excuse ever
I played HoMM3 years ago, I even played and finished the Gameboy game
Except Warlock actually had the money thanks to the Dungeon
The death storyline was great.
Under appreciated post.
How is the vikings one?
