3DO !!! Some Creature Looks MUST Be Changed!

I creared this to let all of you say what creature really must be changed...and maybe someone up there will hear us...hope so!
 In my list the first one it will be>>the blood thirsty vampire which in my opinion doesn't look so thirsty to me (vampire isn't and never was a gentleman>like 3DO assumed in homm4!!!!)
 Secondly it'll be the venom spawn which looks really stupid to me!
 There would be some more others that i can't think right now ... so LET'S HEAR IT GUYS!!!

OK Shae... LET's see>> 2red stars, no yellow>> now you think>> maybe this guy is sort of new on this forum>>> HE could know Incubus and he surelly could't have read all the threads that were posted BEFORE!!! >>> AND maybe this guy plays homm since homm1 appeared and doesn't want that some 3DO's untalented graphicians to blow things up with homm4 which I think it'll be a GREAT GAME but some little things must be changed (and time is >> until 15march2002)

That's pure crap, by the way (spoken with scottish accent)

More like ONLY nightmare. That fat, chubby little pony looks as lost as a buffalo in a china store. Watch out for complete list of creature graphics!

creatures

What's all the fuss about?

The vampire look really good.  Thumbs up for the Vampire for me.

As for the Venom Spawn i dont know so i will reserved judgement until the game is out.  That way i can see if the animation and speciality is good or bad.

The Eyes of truth will decide

The new graphics engine don't allow for good looking, detailed creatures like in h3. Instead it allows those stupid looking creatures. I don't understand why has nwc changed to that pseudo 3D engine.

STOP!

Hey, hey, hey! What are you arguing about? The guys at 3DO tried their best to make the game look like they pictured it. Maybe they can fix the looks in HOMM 5 or they can make an expansion of this game later but for now it is OK!
Well maybe they could change the looks of some creatures so they wouldn't look so nice and cute and would look more fersome.

Nothing stops !
There must be done a lot of changes, and I'm not going to wait 3 more years for that!!! I think they did nothing to make these creatures look ok, they just splashed them on the drawing board! I can't imagine someone who calls himself at least inspired, not to say talented drawing those hideous monsters! They must have changed the drawing team since h3.Bad call!!! Almost all of the creatures must be changed, they're either ugly and not fit, or un-proportioned stupid animals...just look at the horses; I think that guy has never seen a horse in real life!
About the mascarade with the vampire I don't even want to start now!

Pseudo is good said ... why on earth didn't they chose a better engine (buy one instead of make one for God's sake).

Not only some creaures must be changed, but some creatures must be expelled from the game:

- venom spawn, waspworth, leprechaun, dragon golem,mantis have to go, all of them unconditioned.
- vampires, harpies, ogre magi,pirate, sea monster,titan, zombie, all need a completely new face.
- others are pretty good, but if they don't move right will be just horse-****.

And what in the name of God is with all that purple on the Academy troops; they would be perfect without it...

Agree with you but...what's wrong with the Dragon Golem - looks fine...and maybe it moves even better.
Waspworth really looks useless...and venom spawn - very stupid...huh! What was in their mind (lack of imagination maybe!)

Dragon golem is a good idea. But here it stops. It doesn't matter how good it moves. I can see all the screws and resorts, and rivets, and hinges, at least they don't show the engine too...I wonder, is it diesel? It would be cheaper...A golem, even the name sais it, is a creature with life of it's own, not a tank...and certainly not with a driver.
A golem must also be the product of a magic process, but all I see is a mechanic putting together pieces of metal.
Too high-tech.

I personally am very unhappy the way 3do created it's creatures. They look very disjointed and look like amateur work. For some reason, instead of making the creatures look elegant and pretty like in H3, they made them hideous and comical instead. Take a look at the leprechaun's face... the sprite's face.. the elf's face... the demon's face.. the mermaid's face.. Also, what happened to the nice color schemes from H3? This is only present in the Haven town from what I can see.

I am not directly trying to slam any artist(s) at 3do, but from the amount of complaints people have been crying, this is maybe something they should take care of. I think, in general, people are unhappy with a lot of the way creatures look in the game. Granted, yes it is a new engine, but it can be done better. Perhaps the will listen to us, perhaps not. We will have to wait and see.

I got a better look at the dragon golem (the large img) and I spotted the big beard guy on its back...I chnaged my mind about it being ok and I agree with Vlad (this one also must be changed!)

Yes, I don't know what happened to those who made the h3 monsters, the only think I can think of is the fact that they changed the monster-graphic team. I won't start again with the description of terrible creatures, you should read the thread "creature verdict", there some people payed attention to details, and expressed their opinions. I hope with all my heart that 3do recognized it as a mistake and they're trying hard now to fix it.

Anybody who cares about graphics is missing the point.  Civ2 has crap graphics, and it's one of the best games ever made.  It still holds up after 6 years and 4 sequels.  Graphics are the icing on the cake, and definitely don't warrant block caps.
