Not for Grass, no. We had toyed with the idea to make [url=http://heroes3towns.com/docent/hills_hl.png]some grass-covered hills[/url] for Highlands, but I eventually decided against implementing the results. We might revisit this later, though.

Well thanks a lot for your attempt to keep things fresh, but you should not have published this before we had the chance to do it officially. The most flabbergasting thing is the fact that you used twice recompressed JPG assets while the same pictures are readily available in PNG at our forum: [url=http://forum.df2.ru/index.php?showtopic=28905&view=findpost&p=755322]http://forum.df2.ru/index.php?showtopic=28905&view=findpost&p=755322[/url]

Machine translation is decidedly not the most optimal way to read important information.

A first third level concept of Factory
It has already been noted a few times that the Gunslinger is a high-level unit.
Also, we would like to state that the widely spread lamentations about the new town having too many humanoid units are unfounded. All such units have been shown already; the remainder of the lineup will be made up of beasts and mechanical constructs.
____________
Well then, let's try and make it somewhat more official. The Russian M&M Tavern VK community interviewed me about the announcement; it resulted in a fairly extensive piece. Besides mulling over the concept of the Factory, it has answers to a number of popular questions about the town, and HotA as a whole. Some content that was previously not shown in the teaser video is also presented. We will try and provide full translation of the interview within a week or two. It is not advised to read Google Translate's attempts to relay the material, as MT solutions are currently not up to the task, when it comes to translating advanced wording in Russian. We would like the English-speaking community to wait for the official translation before offering any in-depth comments.
For now, we decided to provide full-size illustrations with translated commentary.

Few questions for Hota team about the Factory:
1. One cannot replace what was never introduced or even planned to be. Forge is neither of those. That being said, yes - Factory is meant to leverage certain elements and ideas that could be paramount to the concept of Forge. We aren't talking about visuals but about being the most technologically advanced town of all (for Forge, that was the entire idea; for Factory, it is one of many). Still, it could be argued that Factory is going to take over this niche.
Moreover, select homages to the original Forge might yet happen not only within Factory as a town, but also other future HotA content, including Factory campaigns.
2. This is a common misconception. Forge never was announced as a town in HotA or even planned down to any kind of a roadmap. All Forge-related activity was limited to sporadic individual efforts of some crew members dating back to the period from 2011 to 2013, taken completely at their own behest. Some of those materials were published by their creators, like the town screen by Don_ko, but no further developments have happened on that front since.
Thus, speaking about changed plans would be a mistake. Factory is new plans, not a replacement of old ones.
3-4. Such details will be made public in due time.
phoenix4ever
1-2. Such details will be made public in due time.
3. Most likely.
Opera
1. Something of that sort might make an appearance in the campaigns, but it's too early to discuss such things.
2. No.
3. Yes, we are.
4. Most likely.
5. No earlier than a year from now.
6. Yes, it's a flamethrower indeed.

Old or new Resistance mechanics. It's a temporary solution.

The 1.5.4 version is out.
As previously announced, it is predominantly aimed at solving issues pertinent to the original game and HotA. The new release does not feature any significant new content, and players should not expect anything major to be out around New Year. However, like two years ago, some kind of announcement regarding the features to be introduced in the further versions might happen.
The HotA reference section at [url=http://h3hota.com/en/faq]h3hota.com[/url] continues developing:
- The FAQ section has been expanded and translated into English.
- An article featuring detailed descriptions of HotA random map templates with their charts and nuances has been published (currently only available in Russian). You can expect it to be further expanded with gameplay specifics for each template.

I've already stated a number of times that 1.5.4 will be strictly a bugfix update. Quite a huge one, in this regard, but without any new features or even significant graphics changes (Conflux map sprite is the only exception). And no, it will become available in December. No update will be released on the New Year's Day this year.

Number of new and never seen before object renders: Horn of the Abyss, Cove town (without Fort), updated Conflux model, Trident of Dominion.
The remade Conflux sprite is one of the many planned changes to fix the issues with the town's appearance that are being worked on. These sprites for the adventure map will be introduced in HotA 1.5.4, while some other changes, such as considerable improvements on the town screen and several tweaks to the heroes, are planned to be completed later.
