I wont say anything negative about the game before it is released. So far everything looks good, will be very interested in how it all works, it has a lot of potential


I also don't have a problem with how they are releasing the information. Most likely they have a set plan and are sticking to it. Yes it is nice to have more information but i don't see a contract specifically saying that they have to release any information at all, Patience is a virtue people.

I've been very impressed so far, they seem to have considered the impact of all of their changes quite well.

we won't have the whole picture yet but it looks promising. I only hope that it won't dissapoint in the end. screens and trailers dont tell much about the game mechanic wich is what makes a game fun :/ but having a few sweet explosions/implosions is always a plus. I see that many people try go google h6 demo.

Why so Warcraft?
I am speaking about Necropolis...
Why ghouls not, now homm classics: living dead and zombies?
Why do ghosts look like freakin banshees? Why don't they use H V, H III or, even the lamest IMHO, H IV design?
Why do vampires look like Death Knights (Arthas) and some kind of variation about Lich King??? WHY???
Why Sphinxes (Obsidian Destroyers)? Why Egypt theme?
Why floating crystals???
That is so freakin warcraft lore :/

__________________________________________________________________

Oh and from a different angle: Why make Haven (the faction of might) only defensive not balanced???
Humans in fantasy world should always be our exit if it comes to thinking of strenghts and weaknesses of the others - hence - they should be the most balanced faction if it comes to physical statistics...

H6 is definitely going in the right direction. It has a great potential to be even better than H3. I am very pleased with the progress they made so far.

Really nothing you would change?
As for now some concepts are full of copypasta, others are kind of strange and so on and so forth...
Only 3 months to go if you don't shout out loud now, there won't be even a slight chance they would change a thing... Even in a patch...

Well, everybody has a different opinion (more or less). And some things that everybody liked I didn't, and some things that I liked others didn't like. If they do some stupid thing I will be against that. So far I don't think that there are MAJOR things that need to be corrected. We can't know if something is good or bad unless we play the game and then make the decision. I am very optimistic because they included the fans in this game, but I wouldn't like it if they do everything what fans ask because they are making the game and not the fans. I believe that fans can be helpful in creating a game, but some times they can destroy it...

First of all Ghouls are from Dungeons and Dragons, and are from 1976, warcraft didn't invent ANY creature on its own, they just messed some creatures up.


Still, these resemble those from Warcraft. Why not walking dead / zombie?
Because new wave of gamers got used to Ghouls thx to Warcraft. Ubisoft just want to use the things gamers are used to to steal some audience. That is a very cheap psychological move. Everybody likes the things they know well...

Quote:

The sphinxes in this town are lamasu, and they fit this town perfectly, sphinxes are guardians of death, and again, the obsidian destroyer doesn't even closly resemble the lamasu from HOMM6.

Bwehuhehu. Change the name and it's fine. Yeah.
It means - they used Sphinx that (oups) flies in the undead town... It is conceptual copypasta not designing one. Still copypasta. Can you only perceive world using only sensual channels?

Quote:

Vampires should look like these creatures, you have nobles (homm4) and lords which look like the homm6 vampires, vampire spawn look like mutated batpeople.

No. They shouldn't. They should be more like those from H III imho. That WOW suited Death Knight in black fancy armour and gave them dual-wielding sword doesn't mean each an every vampire from now on should use this model. Why not come back to good old beginings and revive the old, original vampires???

Quote:

Spectres and banshee's look like that, warcraft didn't messed such creatures up, and in that way you could say that ANY female ghost looks like the ones in warcraft...


Hint: Read my previous post again closely. You'll surely find the answer

@Lesij
I can't agree that everything about necropolis is just a copy & paste in H6. If you have that view then why don't you say that all games are a bunch of copy & paste ideas...

(Almost) All games are a bunch of copy and paste ideas.

But it is kind of an offtopic. Warcraft lore was copied from Heroes lore, now Heroes steal from Warcraft...

Which games are original?
For example HOMM III was (it used only Roman, Greek, Nordic mythology and some films /for example about vampires/ as a base), and thus it had an awesome success

your point? I thought it was you who said it looked like a sphinx.
In any case, no the Lamasu is not very similar to the Obsidian Destroyer

Also they had ghouls in Dark Messiah and that was perfect, and they look alot cooler then in warcraft

Ontopic: yeah I like the direction the H6 development is having.
Of course it is still to early, but this far it sure as hell seems awesome

Necropolis pdf

How can you seriously think that the necropolis is a complete rip off from Warcraft?
The Lamasu is far from being a Sphinx or Obsidian Destroyer.
Ghouls might exist in warcraft, but they have been around for a long time, so it is not like they stole it from warcraft specificly. Besides they are a cool and welcomed replacement for the zombie.
Omg female ghosts! that must been stolen from warcraft

And if the developers wants to add cool units/creature should they really limit themselves just because they happen to exist in other games? I mean of course they shouldn't just rip em off completely, but if they give them there own twist I see no problem whatsoever.


But I do agree with that Arthas thing, poor vampires I wish they looked like they did in H3

I didn't say it was a complete rip off...
Also there were 'female' ghosts in H III. Why not use thier model?
