What other release dates ? This is the first official release date we got from Ubi. Q1 2011, March 2011, Spring 2011 and 2011 are no release dates but merely "targets"

Yes we will. Off the top of my head there's the shaman, sister, ghost, celestial, lich, and succubus.

Isn't the date on the official site good enough?
I think you won't get any better source (except when you go to a store and see the game and buy it )

Regarding Sanctuary,
I have been contemplating this for some time and this is what I ended up with.
Personally, I have enjoyed every Heroes game from the day my best buddy came around my house with "something I have to show you, mate" - Bugs or no bugs, I have spent countless hours with this game, so fair to say, it's on my personal top 10 of all times.
I think, in this day and age, it's hard to develop ( or re-develop ) a game that keeps people ( I'm talking masses here, not specified groups ) interested for a really long period of time ! - So, my guess is that Ubisoft / Blackhole tried to combine the best of both worlds i.e. A beautiful and in-depth game AND still have a fairly fast-paced game to keep the masses satisfied ( It's the revenue that counts in the end, I am afraid ).
So, developing a brand new faction to a rather old'ish brand is ballsy but in my book a necessity ! - Do I really need another game with the usual 4-6 archetypes in a new fancy 2D/3D layout ? - Answer is ; No, I do not what that. I want to see something new, yet playable.
Of course their choices regarding creature types, overall layout, hero builds etc. may not meet my wishes or expectations but nevertheless I still try to keep an open mind, It's a Heroes game after all ™
I may have missed the info, but when looking at :
respec I can't help but to at least hope that this feature only appears once every, say 10 levels - Any info on this ?

I know, but i mean if they will be spellbook-type. For what I see, they are like abilities. It's more for the modding aspect, to make some of them have super-powerful spells ( ), and not only those"spells" that the few spell-casting creatures have.
I don't know if I'm being clear.

Ah, okay. I'm not sure about that. I think some of the creatures have multiple spells, and I'd imagine they don't have multiple buttons for creature abilities, so they probably have some sort of spellbook. That said, I don't know if that means you can mod in any spell in the game.

Please don't complain about/oppose delays even if they seem like an inconvenience. As SaveHeroes proved, getting Ubisoft's suits to enable longer development time is a mercy. Give the developers the time they need to finish their game. We want the best product that can reasonably be given on release, not after "enought" patches.

Yeah I'm surprised Ubisoft would let them get extra time.
If they need more time, it's real nice that they can get it. I hate games that are flawed on release.
Hey, wasn't 22 June the "rumored" release date for Diablo 3? (the rumor is based on that D3 was revealed on the 22 June 2008, but it won't be released by then....)

If Duke Nuken forever has a release date, every game can have one too
About the fanmade video. The only HoMM6 part of the video was the tittle. If I create a video of my cats and call the video "New faction for the first expansion of HOMM6", will my video be on the official site and I will get the goodies too?

Damn, I lost the thread for a couple of moments there, I was looking for a huge block of page links, but they've introduced a new space-saving feature you only get to see the first 5 (or 4 actually, since the title links to the first page) and last 6 pages, creative.

From one point of view I'm glade to see they take time to polish the game and deliver us an outstanding game, but from another point of view all this delay, yes taking in consideration that the March and May weren't officially presented, makes me think they hit some difficult issues that can't get a fix for them, hope I'm wrong and they release in June because they want to make it bug free and outstanding piece of game, well optimized and whit a challenging A.I. ...

This should give me ample time to figure out what the hell is going on in homm4. Just tried it and it is thoroughly confusing, but at least interesting lol.
Seeing that I live in the US, I'll let ya know what I think of the game since I'll be getting it on the 21st
