Actually, Ubihole treats bosses as neutrals, so they pick 5 out of at least 17 creatures (16, because I don't think they would reveal water Dragon twice)

there are currently 71,385 like the might and magic facebook pages
EDIT: I think Irina said will release more than 1 neutral creature at the end of the week if the Might and Magic facebook page "like" reach 75000. mmm So the chance we might see all the Elementals and Phoenix. Well the current like is: 71,395
Here is Irina's quote: "Hello Heroes. It's a pleasure to see you like Neutrals! I've prepped for you 1 Neutral every day of the week...but if we reach 75000 fans on our FB page, I'll give you more pics in exclusivity! Let's do it???"

That would be dogs, comrade, not wolves.
By the way the dogs in Red Alert are about 10 times more fantastic than the dogs and wolves in most fantasy games, including Heroes. Instantly killing trained infantryman armed with assault rifle.

Not to mention being able to catch Sean Connery impersonators.
Those dogs are extremely awesome, anything that can go toe-to-toe with anything even remotely resembling Sean Connery is cool as a result.

Is anyone else choosing not to play Heroes 6 BETA b/c they don't want to spoil the surprise? Instead of playing a portion of the game to try to fix bugs, I want to start it up to immerse myself for the first time. I'm just wondering if I'm the only person who is like this lol.
The elementals seem pretty cool. I somewhat agree with nightterror that generic wolves could be done better. And I'm hoping there will be some dwellings for neutrals and they aren't all summonable. Playing homm3 recently I got frustrated that the top tier spells are almost all summon elementals. Weak.

I guess I'm the opposite, I always try out a game before I buy it. But I know of others who've said something similar as you have.
For me, the beta would be a good opportunity to give feedback.

It won't spoil the story, because we'll be able to play only the prologue and the first Sanctuary map. And the story of these levels is already known.
But give me your beta key if you think so because a friend of mine would be happy with it.

me too *raise hand* I want to experience the game as full well polished game as a whole the first time I enter the game, it is weird I know but somehow playing the beta spoiling the fun. But o well.
Actually rather than adding wolves I will be more fond with replacing some re-skinned unit (if they are actually a re-skinned not a complete copy-paste) with better unique model. But again it is just me.

We have an "old" video from the end of January where there is the Spring spirit named "Water elemental" Since it has been made before the annoucment of the Sanctuary we have no "official" or "up to date" prof. But it is a Dark cloud that stands above us all many fearing that this will be the truth.

I still think that there aren't two Spring Spirits walking around, but rather only the one and it's in the sanctuary line-up. In other words there is no neutral water elemental and the wolf was never added but rather a neutral from the start. Same with the light elemental - the light elemental is the Glory and just the Glory.
If I'm right, then the neutral line-up would be something like this:
1. Earth Elemental
2. Air Elemental
3. Fire Elemental
4. Darkness Elemental
5. Wolf
6. Mermaid
7. Phoenix
8. ???
I think when we saw those neutral water elementals in that video, they were just neutral Spring Spirits that hadn't been given an official name yet.
It's wishful thinking, I know. But come on, guys, even though there's a very real possibility that I'm completely wrong, isn't there also a very real possibility that I'm right?

That's what i thought... I, for one, hope they don't show the water and light elementals. just to be jerks...
@jackson: no. they've said 6 neutral elementals, so that is pretty much "impossible"

Just Two small problems
Elvin had had directly said that the wolves have been added later on. An indirectly that there are Two types of wolves
And also the 6 basic elementals were more or less confirned.
I do not say that you are wrong but I do belive this.
Also I think there are 10 neutrals we know about sofar (Original 8 plus 2 wolves

The knowledge is based on a 6 months old video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYL0IZaKOrc - showing an army fighting several Water Elementals - no reskins but exact copies of Spring Spirits actually (have a look @ 1:34).
As for the Light Elementals... only speculations, I guess.

Does anyone else see a difference between the artwork and in-game colors of these 2 elementals? I could swear I saw some emerald colors on earth elemental and purplish glow on air elemental. Is it just me or do neutrals have upgrades as well (2 wolves issue included)?

So looking at the Christmas tree, I'd say:
1. Water Elemental (gold crown?) (derivative of Mizu Kami)
2. Ghost
3. Snow Maiden
4. Priestess
5. Blazing Glory
6. Fate Spinner
7. Pearl Priestess
8. Succubus
9. Mermaid
10. Centaur
11. Light Elemental (derivative of Blazing Glory)
12. Putrid Lamasu
13. Spring Spirit
These are the chicks in the game.....

That is understandable but a beta isn't all fun and games. You volunteer to help so that thousands and thousands of players will have a better gaming experience. To know that you helped improve the game for everyone. I can sympathise but still find it a bit of a selfish decision.

On that matter, there is any info on open beta? Would surely solve the "free slots" from people who can't/don't want to test it. Plus might attract new people or old people who are uncertain about the game.

Any word on how one should go about getting a beta key? Or is it a totally random thing, barring a select few (and if so, what pool are they drawing from)?
