If the game is not decided before the time expires for one player, then this player will be the loser.
eeeeek that izz scary
me likes to fight every fight to not loooooze my warriors, if i fight ten times in one turn i burn a lot of time, someone else just uses auto combat and wins coz of that
is it a must option ?
I think he is referring to multiplayer vs human
Nope it's human vs human.....

Quote: Maybe I missed reading it in the posts, but is the editor definitely coming out at the same time as the game comes out? Is this editor confirmed to actually be easier to work with than the HOMM5 editor?
No to both questions.
I asked this in another thread, but never got a response so I'll ask again.
I know we weren't getting the RMG, but we were supposed to at least be getting the actual map editor. Hell, they even at one point said we might get it before the game came out. Now you are saying we aren't even getting the editor now? When was that announced and what the hell happened?
Noone ever said there would be no editor
The first question was "is the edior definately coming out at the same time as the game ?" and we don't know. Ubisoft has first promissed us it would be released before the game is out, then they backpedaled and said it would be released shortly after, but with all these postponements, who knows ?
The second question was "is it easier to use than H5's editor ?" and the answer is no, based on what we've seen of it in mid-July. It's a mix of H4 and H5 editors, but it looks more like they picked the worst of both. The editor is as user-friendly as most of the in-game interface and creating water areas, be it seas or rivers, is a major pain ... so don't imagine you'll be creating those gorgeous waterfalls they've been showing us anytime soon
I know it's still a work in progress, but the first contact with the editor was VERY negative, even worse than H5's editor.

For those who are not aware, Nightterror was recently revealed to be a formerly banned member. According to the CoC she will soon be banned and all her posts will be deleted.

Nope, and I don't expect it to be available early since the Gamescon is beginning today. First phase started at 6pm.

Yep, I think it's going to start in 3 or 4 hours. This is what they said on the facebook page:

Dumb question. Will the beta update automatically through Steam or will it do so through the beta start-up program (the one that is endlessly trying to sync save games)?

It shouldn't be Steam, after all not everybody get it from there. They had enough time to fix the client.

The beta will start again on 8pm Paris time(CET) which is almost 2 hours from now. Steam should follow suit immediately after.

Infinitus, are you sure this is the official final version?
The executable could not extract itself properly the first time, caused an error.
I am trying again now.
EDIT: Seeing as the file is actually growing in size every time you download it, I guess it was not final
The gu.exe is updating normally now however!

Yes, I had an error too. It doesn't matter anyway, since the update works now. Or it should work, that one gives an error as well.
Trying to download update file from http://static2.cdn.ubi.com/homm6/homm6_public_closed_beta_1.03.exe. Destination: C:\Users\yonutz\AppData\Local\Temp\ubi752C.tmp.exe.
Fatal download error (The requested URL returned error: 404).
Ubisoft and their crappy servers.

Yes, looks like was upload on server, not final. Better to use auto update from beta.

So can anyone confirm the swap of ballistics 2 and 3 have made the catapult great? Or does it remain the most sucktacular thing ever?
