I know everyone is a little let down with this news, but, fall does last 3-4 months. So that is a lot of time still for them to make progress.
And the HotA team hasn't come out and explicitly say that the updates won't be ready till the New Year. So there is still hope.

install problem
Hi guys
Bought a new laptop. I reinstalled h3 complete version but I have an issue when downloading hota.
I get the message that I cannot install it in the system folder 'program files' (C:Program Files3DOHeroes 3 Complete) ... First time I got this error?
I tried moving the map to different locations but didnt do the trick? Any advise?

Just re-install h3 in any other folder than Program Files and then install HotA on it.

I run HotA on Linux and I always make a rule to not install apps in paths with spaces in them.
So you can try to reinstall in a simple location like C:\Games\Heroes3 and maybe post a screenshot if you still get an error.

shev441 said: Too bad release is being postponed again. Glad that you still keep working though, cause HOTA is simply great. Fact that estimated date for Factory's premiere is still end of 2019 makes me very happy. Can we still expect promised post with 1.6 features in upcomming days/weeks? I'm extra curious what have you prepered for us New informations would make it easier to wait during autumn.
Worry not my fellow king for it will be delivered on the due date. Wizards are never late nor early, they appear at the right time.
Miyamoto once said a delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad. He's damn right. HoTa will persist for years to come, i could even say decades. Waiting a handful of month for the product to remain top notch as we have right now is nothing compared to the ever lasting legacy it'll bring.
It they rush the new content and inject the game with poor quality content, the project will die. Fans will jump ship. For the specific case of this game, the bar is very high because only near-perfect to flawless games withstand the test of time; it would be a shame to ruin this one time opportunity that has been built up by more than two decades of dedicated fandom.
They do god's work by maintaining the masterpiece up to the standards the community awaits. We do our job by keeping on playing.
Play, and the game will never die.

Incomprehensible message. A man wrote about a news post. The developers could please the fans with news and continue to engage in development, but this does not happen. I do not understand this.

bro
all i'm saying is you don't have to worry, things will come nicely for us when they are ready. as long as we, the public, remains grateful for the new content, the developers will happily deliver.
they wouldn't do it if they didn't love it. it's voluntary contribution after all.
honestly my previous post was god tier i'm sorry you didn't grasp the wisdom i layed in between those lines.

Today is november first. Anyone has any news?
By the way during the meantime i tried the Succession mod : http://heroes3wog.net/the-succession-wars/
It's very good. Unfortunately i have font issues (i must run with <Graphics.Mode> = 5 otherwise i have poor performances) but it's very well playable.
It's much easier than HoTa but it's good. The music is fantastic and the new town (the desert town) refreshes the old HoMM2 game.
I strongly recommend you give it a try my fellow kings.
Enjoy during the wait time.
Other than that i'm still uber primed for the upcoming HoTa update. I really hope the dev deliver soon!!!

If they give us updates 1.6 now. Then we will not get anything for the new year. Perhaps that is why they are in no hurry to tell us anything about the Factory. Too early for that. After all, it can appear only after a year.

Didn't think about that did you lmao

I think the 1.6 version will slide to new year and the 1.7 version probably next summer

Well that would explain the silence, I guess, but I hope not.
One big update at New Years would be great.

The Docent said that summer is a dead season for them. Therefore, the factory must enter the new year. If not this one, then the next one. To my regret, the option with 2021 is so far more likely.

I know they said that the next release has been postponed indefinitely, but I would rather hear bad news than no news.
I mean I can handle the idea of not having a new version around New Year's. But otherwise I'm like "so you're telling me there's a chance" which sets me up for disappointment down the line.
