Btw the Friday video while short, it should prove pretty amusing  I hope  

But it will be a video made by Ubihole or just a fanmade video they found on youtube while searching for "HOMMVI"?

Speaking of posters, am I the only one that is starting to miss Nightterror?

Don't listen to Elvin, Of course we miss Nightterror. The only problem is that she isn't posting as much as she used to. (neither do I... (hmm maybe she's the reason...))
Hopefully she will start to hype more about H6 as we come closer to the release. (currently she seems more obsessed with MK )

Haha maybe they have added full town screens, but just as a joke.

H4 town building annoyed me to no end. 5 gems/crystal and 2500 gold so that you could get +250 gold per day and some 7k citadel/castle that did not boost your growth and were only in the way of building your dwellings. They'd only come in handy if an opponent attacked you


Then again, Cyclops Cave in H3 beats even such logistical construction mess. Dwelling was ready to be built about 10 days after game ended on average.

I just loved how hard it was to come by money in Heroes 4. 2500 investnent for +250 per turn is a good investment isnt it, for the 300 turn games on huge maps. But as you did, I too missed the increase in dwelling growth with the fortifications. Of course there could be an option to build your capital aswell, for a grand suiting sum of gold, wood and ore.

The richness of different hero types/classes was another such great thing about Heroes 4. I can't understand why the series are going backwards and from the idea of heroes joining the battles themselves, being vulnerable on the battlefield, and heroes being able to go arround on their own. I miss Nobility and Scouting heroes in the new incarnations of this game (and alot of other things). Stealth in Heroes 4 was a genious concept. Too bad it was so genious that the AI wasn't able to take advantage of it, but Jesus how fun it is when two great scouting heroes meets for a one to one battle, or try to avoid the other in multiplayer.

Well, just some thoughts from me. A long time fan that doesen't post so much, but I get so provoked by all this Heroes 4 bashing all the time. Guess those people havent tried out my Heroes 4 maps in multiplayer. Greatest Heroes experience ever, I can assure you.

The only thing I wish for is simultanious turns in H4 multiplayer. Then I would have the perfect game for multiplayer (and perhaps a little nerfing of the necromancer skill......).

All that said I still have some faith in Heroes 6, some of the new stuff are exciting, and the terrain looks pure magical. I'm sure it will crush Heroes 5 (a game I couldn't get myself to love like i did for all the previous versions) like a bug. And yes, I've pre-orderd.

Quote:
does anybody recall what does yuki onna do ??

The way I interpreted it was that she can use ice traps, but that's just my guess...


ice traps ? so she's an icey taller version of a goblin... thats bad thanks for the answer though


Yuki Onna abilities:

Frozen touch - strives to paralyze clusters of enemies
Frozen Caress - upgrade - stronger than frozen touch
Ice Shards - upgrade - creates line of ice that damages any who walk through

On town window (again!):
Everyone, please remember that although they might be simplifying the town window, it doesn't mean that it will get easier and quicker to build, probably on the contrary, they will still hold the Heroes formula we love ie. only can build 1 building per day....and with only three resources, this will get tough, esp. searching for the rare dragon crystals...finding them on the adventure map will be precious!

Anyway many other games have my attention now, like Jaba, sweet Jaba already said Mortal Kombat, but there are much more, Diablo 3, Dungeon Siege 3, Fear 3 and even Barbies sweet adventures 3 has my attention more at this point than HOMM6...

I hope the final product is gonna shine, but for now my interest is flowing elswhere.

Still love some posters here of course, they are the reason i'm still here as some haunting ghost


Diablo 3 -> play demon faction then
Dungeon Siege 3 -> play warlock faction then
Fear 3 -> play demon faction with nightmares fear ability then



Crysis 2 though, best FPS graphics ever!

But you know, since King's Quest 1, Prince of Persia, Half-Life and Crysis,

Heroes of Might & Magic is the best game ever, in terms of replayability and you can have a cup of coffee without missing anything in the game! Full control....

What topic do You propose? With all due respect, we've already discussed, whined/ranted/raged about, praised, and then whined some more about each and every minute aspect of H6 that we know of, and there probably won't be any more big reveals before we can fiinaaallyy play the beta/game, so there is no longer much to talk about. Have a little patience

Of course I'd be happy to restart the pointless ocean of pure nerdrage regarding the lamentable lack of proper town screens anytime , but somehow I feel that the developers are aware of the general opinion regarding them , and since I  already got away on multiple occasions with... a shade too strongly expressing my own, without getting a penalty, I'd rather not risk it again for a time.

@Nightterror:
Of course we miss you! You were my favorite poster by far even when I was but a lurker! Your signature mixture of light-hearted jokes, DandD references, and razor-sharp ripostes provides a most enjoyable read every time You care to share something with us, and I really mean this!

This might be a wierd question, but since I don't download maps at all it si interesting to me...

Whot kind of maps does Julien Pirou actually  make. Since he is the lead level designer I would like to know whot to expect from him.

Did he made more RPG style maps (that focused on the story), some of those megalomanic "Milios of everything maps (those that fell more like RTS maps), or some micro style maps (limited rescourses and just a small army to complet your task)

What topic do You propose?


what topic ? there are countless topics

1. the marksman or whatever the shooting princess from heaven is called has a falcon on his helmet, do u think that during the combat the bird comes alive, does what birds do on heads of people and gives him a lucky attack ?

2. the pikeman has a huge circle on his belly, does that mean he's an older version of iron man and its actually his battery ? and why did they have batteries back then ? how big are those batteries anyways coz that radiant glory looks like shes been electrocuted ?

3. why does that cavalry dude have an invisible yellow horse ? is it a reference to when we used to play make believe with a broom acting like it was an actual horse ? or maybe it means that the whole golden look they have is actually one big lie and heaven actually dont even have money for real horses ?

4. why does a succubuss have a whip ? with whom can she play those kinky games in inferno town ? wait dont answer that, leave some mistery in the air

5. one of the biggest philosophical puzzles of all times "what came first to be - an imp or the Mother Breeder" ?

6. how old is pit lord anyways, he's always kneeling and using his sword like a walkin stick, why take someone who cant even walk on its own to be a champion ?

7. who feeds juggernauts ? since it has no fingers

8. that ghoul... if its not retarded what is his problem ?

9. what is a lamasu again ? a manticore who had sex with an ugly hag with lights off, turned the lights on , saw her, killed itself and was reborn as an undead... or did i mix something up ?

10. lady spider... and kappa... they're both eating flies ?

11. that panther warrior... what if panther kills the big orc ? does it wear orcs skull on its head ?

@Yaelicc:

Actually, from now on, I will definitely ask You for possible topics, as soon as we run out of them . Not only did You make me lol, but actually, we could devote a little news-free time to try to answer some of the questions raised.

1. No, it's a falcon who's been trained to s**t at will, emptying its squishy load randomly, once per combat, on an opposing stack of troops, causing them to run home to Mummy, demanding a new set of clothes, new gear, etc, then deciding that maybe if all it can do in battle is to get **** on, then all that fuss isn't worth it, thereafter preferring to live as a quiet hermit, who can't stand falcons, and eats them raw, whenever possible

That fake bird is to pretend that he has allways good morale, so his enemies will be more scared of him.

Quote:
2. the pikeman has a huge circle on his belly, does that mean he's an older version of iron man and its actually his battery ? and why did they have batteries back then ? how big are those batteries anyways coz that radiant glory looks like shes been electrocuted ?

That circle is a target. People from Haven aren't stupid. Instead of spend money in armor for everyone, they spent money for a very resistent armor with a target drawn there so enemies would think that it's easier to kill a soldier with a target drawn than a person without an armor.

Quote:
3. why does that cavalry dude have an invisible yellow horse ? is it a reference to when we used to play make believe with a broom acting like it was an actual horse ? or maybe it means that the whole golden look they have is actually one big lie and heaven actually dont even have money for real horses ?

Well, since they have no money for real horses, the Dragon of Light transformed some glories into horses so Champions could have an horse too.

Quote:
4. why does a succubuss have a whip ? with whom can she play those kinky games in inferno town ? wait dont answer that, leave some mistery in the air

She plays with the priestess

Quote:
5. one of the biggest philosophical puzzles of all times "what came first to be - an imp or the Mother Breeder" ?

Mother Breeder. She came from some weird material, and with that same material she created the imps. That's why we don't have Breeders in H6. They self-destructed because they created way too many imps.

Quote:
6. how old is pit lord anyways, he's always kneeling and using his sword like a walkin stick, why take someone who cant even walk on its own to be a champion ?

Knowledge. The older, the better. Also, who could understand better the weird philosophy of Inferno than a crazy old man?

Quote:
7. who feeds juggernauts ? since it has no fingers

Maniacs. That's why they have chains in the hands. If they gave food to the Juggernauts without them they would end up without hands.

Quote:
8. that ghoul... if its not retarded what is his problem ?

It is retarded. That's why he cut his legs non-stop in the model of the site

Quote:
9. what is a lamasu again ? a manticore who had sex with an ugly hag with lights off, turned the lights on , saw her, killed itself and was reborn as an undead... or did i mix something up ?

If you heard the version of the experiment of wizards, that is a myth, not the true story.
Well, you know the story of the H6 griffin, right?
Quote:
It is said that an act of compassion by an eagle who rescued a lion being carried away by the current of a dragon-vein gave rise to this formidable species.

There is a darker version of the same story which includes a human and a manticore. Haven priests thought they were demons, because they were too ugly. So they killed all lamasus. Necromancers ressurrect them, and because they were afraid of been accused of murderer, priests started spreading rumors that it was the wizards who made some crazy experiments that created and killed Lamasus.

Quote:
10. lady spider... and kappa... they're both eating flies ?

Lady spider diet includes male spiders, wizards, flies and butterflies.
Kappa prevents Sanctuary from having insect infestations. That's one of the reasons why Sanctuary is one of the most hygienic factions.

Quote:
11. that panther warrior... what if panther kills the big orc ? does it wear orcs skull on its head ?

Discover the answer to this and other questions in the next expansion: HOMM6:Cat Wrath.

Quote:
13. who is shark warriors biggest nemesis ? a dolphin boy or a fisherman ?

Do you know why the dolphins aren't in Sanctuary? Because they run away from the bullys (and guess who are these bullys). The shark warriors biggest nemesis are Spring Spirits. Shark warriors supposedly are Tier 7 creatures, but they are easily defeated because they got distracted with Spring Spirits and Glories.

Quote:
15. @ spring river - i hope u end up in antartic.... where there is no spring

And that's how a Spring Spirit upgrades into a Snow maiden


Quote:
17. what is a kirin ? an elemental who thinks its a dragon or.... ?

Well, people from Sanctuary discovered that they can easily be popular if they have a dragon as a tier 7 creature, so they combined a big number of water elementals and wind elementals till they formed something similar to a Dragon.
