Like seeing what is coming forward in Homm5
Fabrice Cambounet (from ubisoft's homm5), who posted more info on Celestial Heavens, pretty much reveals how their focus will be on multiplayer, and specifically on online games. I can see faster turns, less multi bugs, and better town/creature balance in a homm5 under his wing.
Looks like they will go with 3D models, like in homm4. We of course like that, though homm3 fans who did not like the change to the homm4 look might be a bit disappointed. But again the confusion lies as to whether the battlefield will be flat once again, or 3d like in homm4. Either way, it seems that they know what they're doing, and will grab best of both world and make a better game.

Well Heroes 4 is a complete diferent game then heroes 3 but most like heroes 34 more then alot think but like Rych says Dial up conn can get really frusterating with the outrageous requirements.
Personally I dont think many would care about the 3D as long as it does not take a totally dif direction like heroes 4 did.

I would like to see an even more 3d eviroment. Would be sweet to have the 3D view like in Warcraft, where you can change the view down and actually be running your horse thru the buildings etc. And in the battles, Have the view alot lower angled so each player sees the battle from there own side of the field.

I love the graphics of H4. I like them 10 times better then H3 to be honest. The biggest thing I don't like is the guessing game that takes place on the battle field. (yes I know about the grid and shadow added in the patch) But imo, its still to close to a guessing game. I would like to see it a little more defined on what critter can make it where. Love the graphics in H4 better then H3, but I like H3's precision on troop placement much better then H4's last minute patch addition. Just my thoughts.
Edit:
Just wanted to add, another thing I don't want to see is a game that requires crazy system requirements. It would really suck to see H5 be the type of game that requires a top of the line processor, top of the line video card with 3d acc., top of the line monitor, and a minimum of 516 Mb ram. Very few people can afford such equipment which would, imo, hurt the game more than help it.

How about temporarily moving your behinds to the Altar of Wishes and voice your opinion in the Heroes 5 poll?
Start out by giving your XXX cents on the questions asked and then if you're missing some questions and considerations to be made then suggest them (with reasonable answers!) in the query suggestion thread.
Remember that if the multi player community does not voice their opinion in the poll, then the views I will have to relay to ubisoft will be that of the single player.

heroes off battlefield
I thing this will be a good chang, I would like to see h5 keep the magic and skills of h4 and It be so u can take several heroes and then your creature groups.
It is hard to balance game correctly imho with heroes on the battlefield. they are too weak early in game and too strong late in games, with creatures being a minor point in final battle, I would like to see this change.
I very much like the skills and magic system as they are, and would not like to see it revert back to h3 where u have the one "superhero" with all the skills. tactics, pathfinding, and the magic system as in h4 is a very good system requiring several heroes.

Right.
Open your eyes, apart from few exceptions hero specialities were insignificant.
But it's not like I think the concept itself is bad, just design.
My personal fear is that "true 3d" will result in very limited amount of creatures.
