Heroes 6 Multiplayer impressions
Final version with patch day one have lot more two players maps Haven resurrection bag has gone. No save replay option after battle done  Played one duel vs real opponent, he quit game after realize game is lost for him, my statistic after this game remain 0/0 duels play/won. So multiplayer statistic still not working. No real mutliplayer ranking as it was in beta. Only achievements showing your activity level, not you skill

Is it really true this game has no simultanous turns? I hope not, because I'm downloading now, and Heroes games are in my opinion boring to play sp due to bad AI and very few strategical options.

Yes it is, has been known for months too. It is possible that they will be included in a patch but that remains to be seen.

Hmmm, so the Heroes series is no longer in the MP front-seat as it was when Heroes 3 came along. This game needs simultanous turns to be played as it should be, with 8 humans on a huuuuuge map. Well, guess all agree that it's needed. Let's hope the developers prioritize it. Guess I'll have to play 2 humans only, or play some Civ instead.
Can't believe their priority number one is townscreens by the way. And by the way 2: Thanx for the fast answer, I'm still not finished downloading.

Installed now, and went right to Multiplayer. Even more disapointments was waiting. Just had duel and hotseat option. So you can't play those huge maps at all in good old FFA fashion with many players on huge maps?
I've got a messege saying: Connection failed. The passed in key does not activate the expected priviliges.
Is that the reason I cant play a real FFA on 6-8 player map? I'm starting to get tired of how complicated things are these days.

It's one of the reasons more and more people choose console gaming over PC, I'm afraid.

Well, It's too bad. PC is best for strategy games. Developers have to get their eyes up that people want good MP for strategy games, even being able to play huuuuuuuuuge and complex long lasting games MP.

Some changes since Beta (duel) :
Haven have less morale, harder to fill racial jauge to IV
Panther's warrior all around slash is now like mighty slam but with a cooldown of 2 turns and always minimum range 3
Gating jauge is filling faster, often/(always) IV in first turn
Summoning less elementals than before.
Summoned earth elementals are apparently not yet enough to petrify champions creatures .
Ranking is only solo games (campain/solo card) and dynasty (first : 2 M in one day !).

Played yesterday more multiplayer games. Looks like statistic work for games on normal maps and solo, not work for duel. Attempted to play on normal maps. 3 games started, 3 leavers i got, 3 wins for me in statistic. Versus unknown people on normal map is impossible to play right now, 100% leavers .
Edit: Statistic work very strange, after i played singleplayer all multiplayer statistic reset to 0 score ... Just noticed game have new vidjets, inclusive one for ranking, bad part is only for solo mode.
Edit2: Looks like Russian version of H6 have his own server. I have Russian version, how now i will play vs friends from Europe ? Multiplayer Heroes already is not very popular and to split multiplayer community in different servers ? It's very wrong decision

Anyone figured out the HotSeat multiplayer yet? It seems all human controlled players can only choose from my unlocked Dynasty heroes. Since I just got the game it's just the 4 unlocked with the code I got buying the game - meaning two Necropolis heroes, one Stronghold and one Sancturay.
What happened to choosing any hero and any faction? Or do I have to play a lot of singleplayer to unlock heroes playable in HotSeat multiplayer mode? Maybe it's just a bug?

If connected to the Conflux, you will have to create new heroes to use them : dynasty > heroes (down left) > create new hero (up left).
When i was playing offline the beta, i had choice between one magic or one might hero for each faction (ten for five factions). It should be always the same today.
