Also game no woman will ever understand.
my sister in law used to play this a lot. now she has kids. fuck kids
I think it's a pretty zoomer friendly game that a lot of them could get into.
doesn't make it any less good.
maybe not understand, but girls like playing it
Hota team released first look at Factory - a new industrial faction they'll be adding some time in the future.

Yeah, fuck younger people getting into games I like.
Only slavs enjoy that game.
HOULY SHID looks awesome
Russians truly are the master race.
looks nice
You really want some underage cancer to shit on this game's legacy?
A time before you had to INSTALL a game on your CONSOLE.
>techno-magic is too zany for HoMM, I KNOW, LET'S MAKE A WILD WEST FACTION
only slavic trash like that game
but im italian
nope
With halflings getting a fedora upgrade (that also gives them grenades to sling).
It's a bit weird how white and clean their city looks for an industrial faction.
how could they possibly shit on the game or its "legacy"?
i have the game and the HD mod installed on every computer i own, global nuclear war could happen today and tomorrow i'd be playing the game same as usual
20-year-olds playing the game couldn't possibly ruin my fun
if anything, i'd be happy for them

tfw you´ll never see a spiritual sucesor to this game with proper 2D hand-drawing models and immersive scale instead of the bullshit unreal engine
i loved this more than homm 3, but
>retarded AI for not campaign
Looks decisively out of place. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it no longer looks like Heroes III. The town doesn't make a whole lot of logistical sense either, and the ground is an eyesore. That's unfortunate.
bases and SPAZZ MATICUS pilled
Looks very out of place, much like the original idea for factory
>inb4 M&M is sci fi
I know but HoMM3 has a very distinct traditional fairy tale style.
This is strange thats the first game my actual gf told me she started playing. Is this some kind of plot? Is homm a female game?
My gf played it a lot with her brother as a child, though she mostly loved it because it let her "collect monsters". Fortress is her favorite.
lots of chicks love fantasy, usually fantasy novels and movies.
Those nerd chicks are into the thematic genre of fantasy, rather than the mechanical genre of tbs, so they play dragon age, just like they'll play warcraft 3 and homm3.
Usually as whatever faction has elves.
Or vampires if they're nerd goths.
Their (usually)casual nature can also draw them to ranged factions like tower.
tbs games like homm can be played on a very casual level, there's very little in terms of barrier of entry.
Same reason all women play nids in 40k, huh. It reminds me of the "Pitbull mommy" thing
whats going on in this thread
The perspective seems bit funky in town screen
All I really hope for the new release ain't really the new town, but rebalance of gameplay

It's far too wild west, initial discussion was about Jules Verne science-fiction mixed with British second-industrial revolution, but this an outright American outback.
Fagets.
Ackshually they ripped off warhammer fantasy with the dark elves. And did it so shamelessly that I'm surprised they weren't sued to be honest, witch elves and cold one riders were straight up copied. Other than that I agree with everything you said.
I know plenty women who absolute adore Heroes. Mostly because of the artstyle too.
t. Slav.
Not really convinced about the artstyle, but amazing quality nevertheless.
I thought it would be more art deco judging by the castle, but that's the only thing maintaining that style
Even though it's a peak for children games these zoomers would still not enjoy it.
>bro it's like a sim game, you don't control the units, they have their own lives and do what they want to!
And then the ability to issue specific move orders exists.
>tfw after all these year's I can still come back to it with friends and enjoy it
is this the perfect game?
This looks excellent to me, I don't know what you guys are smoking.
Is Ubisoft retarded? Why don't they offer to sell HOTA to the west?
Like the old universe wasn't bigger vanilla garbage.
No, Inferno is useless and skeletals are.too op.
Old universe had even pure scifi, devils are literal aliens for example. NWG was going to make a HOMM3 faction based on scifi aspect but hordes of nufans sperged out and it was replaced with Conflux.

Hota team doesn't even take donations bruh, the entire thing is done out of love for the game and nothing else.
How is nighon or tatalia vanilla? Doesn't matter anyway since H4 had the best factions
You just see things. Old universe was a run-of-the-mill generic fantasy and even the sci-fi elements (which also were rather generic) didn't make it better. I am not saying Ashan is good, but you really should stop pretending old universe was anything special where in reality it was just an another DnD rip-off.

It's a homm3 total conversion mod though.
Like I said:
>no true HD mod for HoMM2
False, Heroes3 is a chickmagnet of a game.

My GF was laid in bed playing HOMM III HD on her tablet today. She played it on PC when she was young as well.
Is there anything similar on PS4? She has a ps4, but I'm a PC gamer and don't really know of console games outside of the big titles.

>NWG was going to make a HOMM3 faction based on scifi aspect but hordes of nufans sperged out and it was replaced with Conflux.
They weren't nu-fans of mm, they were simply fans of homm, the first fans even. Homm took place in the same universe but on a planet that was made for it. Homm1-3 and there's no scifi in there, expecting them to be fine with scifi in that setting all of a sudden is madness. When the m&m series got its grubby hands on homm and endor they ignored the world and took a huge dump on it when they made mandate of heaven, worse betrayal than anything blizzard has done with warcraft, diablo or starcraft. I'm glad that forgefags got rightfully dabbed on.
Mandate of Heaven was kino and 7 was even better. Sci-fi did nothing wrong and we'll get our revenge when Factory comes out.
also angels are robots
Between the two eras which one was more likable for you?
Oh yeah ,that too.
>Mandate of Heaven was kino and 7
Shameful cashgrab trying to appeal to the homm audience by saying it takes place in the same world, when it doesn't.
Could've just made a new m&m setting, which they did but they just stole some names to trick people and then ignored half or more of homm1-2
There are mandatory classes in Russia for Chess, Dota and HoMM
BASED
But didn't they say they are gonna release Kronwerk and Inquisition first?
fantasy-scifi bait and switch is literally bread and butter of M&M series, they just set up a bigger than usual arc in HoMM - stretching over several games rather than one. And by the time they wanted to truly start the setting's endgame (which is when M&M traditionally shift into sci-fi) - HoMM3 they got cold feet and backed out.
that's some retarded shit you're spewing
Yeah, but the lack of technology kinda did diddle with the lore.
holy fuck i had this when i was a kid and could never remember the name. what a weird game
>fantasy-scifi bait and switch is literally bread and butter of M&M series
The scifi aspect isn't really relevant to my post.
Too clean.
The Forge was supposed to be an evil faction that was created after the bad end of M&M7.
They would've been a massive game changer. Dungeon would've been moved to neutral, alternative technology update for regular troops, the map would feature a lot of buildings emphasising the changing world and there would've been a knight campaign that would've been reminiscent of Samurai Jack.
It was all finished and done, all they had to do was slight fine tuning. Can't believe they all dropped this, just because some fags never played Might and Magic.
I don´t like the idea of "Cowboys" in my Heroes game... totally ruin the atmosphere, Forge town would have been a better idea.
You said the exact same thing about pirates before.
>streamable.com
Instead of showing off buildings and creatures, they play the most mundane early game turns, why??
I undertand that mixing Necropolis + Inferno + random monster is a terrible idea.
>I don't like the idea of "mechazombies" in MY Heroes game... totally ruin the atmosphere, Conflux town would've been a better idea.
I mean if NWC really wanted to create a separate fantasy setting they could have, you know, done the same thing they did with King's Bounty and not name it "Might & Magic". HoMM1 could have been King's Bounty 2 and so on, since it's already a follow-up to that game in all but name. But they decided to make the connection, starting with the name and when the thing that happens in every M&M game happened people were for some reason surprised.
It was only a side game for a card game, which heavily ripped off Magic the Gathering.
heroesofmightandmagic.com
Why did they put Undead and Daemon in one?
Why did Dwarves and Elves hate each other all of a sudden after being together for 3 games?
Of course it flopped worse than Valve's Artifact.
Just too bad that this was what pushed them into bankruptcy and made them sell their franchises to UbiShit.
Because they only have the first two creatures and the very earliest buildings done. The release date for the faction is december 31st and the year isn't specified, so that shit isn't even remotely close to being finished.
Why do people remember TA so fondly but TAK never gets mentioned?
A game so good, it spawned many spiritual successors
I don't think the factions are so bad.
The elf faction is bland, the rest are fine.
homm4 is still one of the worst games of all time due to the terrible gameplay, it tries to be aow with combat heroes which is impossible to balance when you have 1 unit of a creature representing hundreds of that type, the different siizes of units on the battlegrid is a fantastic idea which is handled so poorly that it killes the game because there are so many potential angles you can attack from and the controls don't give you perfect control of where you move to and attack from.
It also looks like garbage, but that could be forgiven if it had acceptable gameplay.
also
>Gargoyles (Tower)
oh you mean the Warlock creature?
Spooky statue fits great in a undead-demon faction.
Because giant robots, duh...
Forge wasn't even supposed to be playable, it was campaign only op enemy. And that's not forge replacement, hota crew never said they're doing abandoned faction
You're missing the point and rambling.
Homm1 and homm2 had stories, geography and history to them. Mandate ignored that. There was a world of enroth that homm1 and homm2 had created, that mandate of heaven could've taken place in, but instead they made a new world and called it the same which doesn't fit with what happened in the previous games.
Because this into is Fucking great
>youtube.com
Awesome game, but isn't it a Civ game with a fantasy theme? So can MoM take credit or should Civ take credit?
I am still waiting for a worthy successor to this one.
>that plot twist in M&M1
>many spiritual successors
>nobody has yet surpassed it
Same problem with Master of Orion 2
I fucking miss Master of Magic.
Which one of the successors has the most soul?
I still remember 10 years ago when I'd listen podcasts and IGN was talking to the Elemental war of magic devs and they said their game would be Master of Magic spiritual successor.
That game ended being such a mess, I still get nightmares with the patching hell that ensued.
It was so much more than Civ with a fantasy theme. So many features that weren't in Civ before or after MoM rolled around.
Those are two different beasts.
If you play it like a Civ game, you won't come far.
The cities and the races are only a means, the focus is really on magic.
>Which one of the successors has the most soul?
Honestly the most comprehensive successor I'd say is Age of Wonders 3 with all the dlc. Though I still find myself going to back to MoM more often than AoW
I tried, I really did. But when I read that one campaign can be like 50 hours, I nope'd out of it.
H4 is the best looking homm game
>MoM2 was planned
>Instead of 2, you could visit 5 planes
>12 different schools of Magic
It fucking hurts. There is a timeline, that has this and we are not in that one.
Awful opinion
Zoomers will never understand the amount of apm that goes into high level Brood War play, SC2 introduced so many qol changes that if you used as a crutch makes BW unplayable.

Damn that's kino as fuck. Is the rest of the game as hot blooded as that? TAK seems way slower paced.

When does the game zoom on models to justify close up as a argument?
A badly done, ugly model is a badly done, ugly model.
nope, scale and distance matter. I bet you look half decent from a distance as well.
Oh fuck, I have that game but never tried it, thanks user, going to give it a try.

This sound is PTSD inducing as a Zerg player.
I know it was a shameless cash grab, but it's also one of the best story I have ever witnessed in a video game series!
What made it so good? If they took the writers along to do HoMM IV it would've been on of it's redeeming qualities (also after witnessing that epic, the conclusion which was done in the IV's Barbarian campaign was just underwhelming)
is 96 zoom? Because I really enjoy this game, I fucking suck at it but I always liked it.
everyone under the age of 30 zooms. I am born in 89. and I still zoom until November when I'll buy my first legal monster energy.

Beat the shit out of her you dumb faggot.
Tell her to download HOMM 3 Complete from either GoG or a torrent site.
I am kinda bummed out by that... and by kinda bummed out, I mean super depressed over it, but I know that's irrational.
1st of november here.
Ah, it was so much fun to split up your army into 100 pieces and have them scout and patrol the entire map due to the fog of war change.
I'm currently replaying pic related.
It's just as I remembered it. I can still vividly recall most of the game and even names, even after 10 years of 10+ years of not playing it.
Has anyone here played 3? How does it compare? It looks stunning, but what about gameplay, and story(how is it connected to the series, anyways)?
Heard you play as part of the Iskander house, weren't they destroyed before the first game though?
Good damn, that looks good.
I hope they still got through with the train idea.
>and I still zoom until November
will you finally stop spouting your garbage meme bullshit after that? or is your mental damage to severe?
Until females, faggots and retarded rich entitled kids try to manipulate it
been here for 12 years, so I assume it's terminal by now.
how do i play this video game? ive spent a couple of hours with it but considering i cant beat the second campaign level i feel like im doing something wrong
Watch someone that's actually good play the game for a while. There is a channel on YT called Meridian, the dude has a really annoying nerdy voice, but his skills in the game are really good. I became like 10 times better at HoMM after watching a couple of his videos and I've been playing HoMM 3 since release as a child.
is this the dude that makes the battles last 40 minutes because he absolutely needs to spare even one lvl 1 unit from dying?
ok incel
sometimes... maybe

That should have included the sound of getting irradiated.
Done, next?
They're both 4x but they play pretty differently.
Civ was first, MoM is better imo.
I need to give aow3 another shot, played it at launch and it was okay, but it was pretty lacking.
No need to make combat so small.
Also really dumb to have graphics for more figures per unit, while not having any difference mechanically.
MoMs figure system is great, and aow1-2 systems where you just have 1 figure representing 1 unit also works.
I played aow2 before MoM and MoM still beat it.
have sex
Done, next?
playing right now
with the unofficial 1.50 patch.
I've only played the unofficial insecticide(1.40) patch before.
Tried implodes mod, but sadly it simply isn't done and not really playable at the moment and that guy disappears for years. You can start MoM implode, but you'll get into issues where it isn't enjoyable anymore. I'm not sure if the AI even does anything, 13 other wizards and a zoom function would be sooo nice though
Tell your mom to swing by my place then ;)
Anyone tried Free Heroes 2 - Enhanced?
samefag yourself
I'm not done with your sister. ;^)
18 y/o here, i like HoMM3 took me a bit to wrap my head around the turn system though.
Ok brainlet zoomer.
I don't have a sister, but if you do, I'd happy to meet her ;)
K, your bro will be enough ;)
Done, next?
I don't have a bro you gaybo ;)
But I will have a friend in you :)
I don't like how recent patch fucked up the diplomatic stats.
It made perfectly sense, why change it?
I'm not gay you gaybo ;)
What did they change about the diplomatic stats?
Tried scanning 1.50 for stuff that seemed wrong, but it was so much to go through

>tfw no grid and zoom in MoM so have to rely on paint
Now that's autism.
This is what it used to be (or still is, if you stay clear of the fan patch)
So show us those 2 creatures and 5 buildings instead of picking gold from chests
And this is what it is now.
Basically White-Green and Orange-Purple went into an alliance, with Blue being the "neutral" role.
Blue should be in the "White-Green-we don't have world ending spells" Alliance. As a result, if you play as Jafar, Ariel hates you for some reason.
huh, yeah I don't think I like that change
seems pretty weird since it 1.50 like 1.40 was meant for bugfixes, not overhaul like CoM
>It also looks like garbage, but that could be forgiven if it had acceptable gameplay.
But it has the best gameplay in the entire series.
No it doesn't.
7 more creatures doesn't change how poorly the game plays during the combat screen.
Campaigns are actually most difficult single player content, play single maps instead until you get good.
Gunnar is my favorite hero by far, always gets the skills I like and has a shitload of movement points. Plus minotaurs are just badass
>But it has the best gameplay in the entire series.
On paper. Non-functioning AI, lack of adventure map objects and overall unpolished design mess all of that up.
Here's that bait image again which was refuted hundreds of times, yet you still keep posting it.
>i cant beat the second campaign level

>67 creatures, 1/3rd of which are recrutiable only from dwellings and you will hardly ever encounter them, whereas all but 4 creatures from base game can be easily recruited in towns
>in H4 you have to still choose from your limited pool of creatures, which are fairly unbalanced causing some units to literally NEVER be used
>oversaturation of artifacts, spells and ESPECIALLY elixirs. after couple hours you will be roaming the map with more pointless shit than you can ever hope to use, especially considering you will only be using couple spells that actually do shit
>caravans, while nice, also caused the game to be clusterfuck of countless units walking around the map like retards
>wild west faction
>terrain that melts the eyes
Terrible
oh right that terrain isn't in standard homm3
took me a while to wonder what you were talking about, didn't think about it because I'm so used to homm2 rough terrain
THERE IT IS
Could you post screencap of one of those refutes? Or just list them yourself?
How about you kill yourself?

Any tips for this game? First time playing it
Get a lot of heroes, but focus on fighting with only a few that you build up and level.
Some of the campaigns are alright. Like god save the queen/king iirc.
Still my favorite HOMM. Only ever played campaign, which is the best in the entire series.
>tile combat
gross
Thanks user
They would just complain about the box puzzles and fall asleep during the cutscenes and call every character gay.
>why is my weapon constantly missing? REEEEEE!!!
Pikemen counter dragons. They keep them at range with their pikes and dragons are powerless to do anything against that
I fell for that one when I was 12
Yeah, after UbiSoft took over they fucking did this run on the mill fantasy crap and it fucking sucks.
but it's not muh homm 3 so it sux :(((

Maybe not as deep when it comes to MP, but the campaign was absolutely fantastic, one of the best ever made in any vidya. Especially the pirate and the death one, 10/10 writing.
Based 30 year old boomer reporting in. I used to watch everything on TV. Especially the cartoon channels (fox kids, cartoon network, jetix, nickelodeon and bloomberg in mid 00s). They don't make 'em like they used to. The old Tom and Jerry cartoons are the best.
