The Online Experience
Now that I may have a word about the ‘HommV Online experience’, well, here it is:
Technically..which means ubi server. Well, could be better could be worse and at the end, it is what it is. Gamespy and Zone wasn’t gamer’s paradise either, we just got used to it. Just hope ubi starts patching the server as well, so it be more practical and stable.
HommV.. which means online multiplay. No transfers problems whatsoever. Autocombat combined with replay, is a luxurious option to have, saves time and game appetite. Even if it sucks many times(if you have fast units in army, like lizards, cerberi, nightmare etc, AC likes to kill them if your defence isnt big). Also, must fix that ‘cant do nothing while not my turn’ which is a ridicule.
Maps.. which means multiplayer maps. Which means ubisoft maps? omg! Having played a few.. i dunno, they just don’t have.. it. I mean, give me a good reason why both players HAVE to wait the days go by, to get the dollar and army, and meanwhile all is left to do is kill that precious crapmine. I believe h5 maps can be done in such way, that you can have a great, rich, fun game in 4h. Now you play like 5h and most time you just stroll around the map with main hero while waiting for the whiskey to mature. We need maps richer(in all aspect, I don’t mean free mony), more concentrated(in movepoints) and harder(in guard strength and gameplay strategies).
ToH.. One thing I noticed, some wait in the rooms having the ‘toh’ pass/lock on. What is that, some secret organization? Who will pass the word to game crazed teens?
The ‘gogo’ boys is toh future you know. And we need the clan tournament running, which is heart of gaming community.
few cents here
well..
enjoy gaming

Insa........
I can't figure you out. Sometimes your insight leads me to believe you're frekkin brilliant and other times you make moronic comments that make me think you're....well, a moron.
You've managed to do both in this post.
What, exactly, do you want?

Lichking seems pissed hehe. Actually I think when insatiable is complaining about the password protect games on ubi -- he specifically meant me -- I was waiting for Diallin to continue our game. The big problem with the UBI server is that there is no way to go into the chatroom when you have a game readied. So there is no way to 'promote' ToH when you've fired a game up short of putting the webaddress into the description.

Don't think so... As for me ubi maps is rich enough. But i dislike rich maps in Homm 4.
We won't need pump up whole army of heroes, just 1 hero. And chests need mostly to pump up heroes, not build an army. Even on Heroic we can build capitol in time, using only 1000/500 chests.
And if main hero can do more then 3 fights per day, time limit will be nightmmare for player.
In Homm4 i have up to 10-12 battles per day. Hopefully here will be no more then 5-6 in case of developing 2-nd hero or simple actions as taking wood/ore mine by 2-nd hero or taking 2-nd town on 'Subterrain treasures'.
