I said mostly against the ai, not only and I don't see what is wrong with wanting a more balanced game.

People can just stop answering me, then you won't trigger a reaction. It's a never ending circle. But I'm done I won't talk more about skills in this thread, that's not what it's about and actually I wanted to be done with it a long time ago.

Dear HotA crew,
thanks for the updates!
Haven't tried them yet, but screenshots and changelogs look promising. The graphics of the new map objects are nicely done and some have very interesting functions (like Watering or Town Gate).
It's cool to see this project going on and on! Keep it up

Please tell me, how far behind am I and where can I get new stuff?
Best thing for me is HD mod. Inter alia it adds time saving features (Homm3 is no more clicking clicking clicking game): buttons for quick units and artifacts transfer, ctrl shift alt for spliting unit groups and grouping. Aslo high resolution, grids, unit movement area in battlefield with Ctrl, any unit picking in tactics stage, ect ect. And HD mod with Hota adds simultanious turns, that is players can play their turns at same time.

So far for me the best feature is the trading in town button. Was quite anoying if your hero maximum was reached. Best map feature the +2 Know/Power Arena... was about time too imho.

Is the Mindflayer meant to be a level 5 unit? Judging from it's stats and abilities. I absolutely love the idea of hypnotize, really curious what that plays out like in game. He sounds a bit overpowered (in a good way), has anyone fought battles against the unit to tell?

I'm new to the mod and I didn't finnished the campaign but from what I understood the "Horn of the Abyss" is an artifact composed by the Golden Goose, the Cornucopia and one of the Ineauxtible Carts.
I tried it several times but can't get it, did I missunderstood something or is it only available in the campaign?

Horn of the Abyss is a single relic artfact. As it is now it is incredibly overpowered, I managed to get 1196 Fangarms with this artifact, but Nik312 already said they will nerf the artifact in the future. So so far I'm playing without it.
Fangarms are 5. level units yes, they are pretty good, lots of nice abilities and flying, but not too fast.

HotA in polish language
Dear HotA Crew Members,
My question is: How are things with polish language version?
May I remind you that polish fanbase of Heroes III is one of the largest in the whole wide world. As far as I know, many texts (creatures, interface, possibly campaign texts and maps) are ready. I was personally involved in creating some of these needed files... and that was... hmmm... let's see... about 1,5 year ago?
This may sound little bit arrogant. I waited patiently long enough, and I'm tired of waiting. Now I demand a statement from you on this topic.
Will polish version of Horn of the Abyss will ever be a thing?

You got it wrong). That composition is only needed for completing specific mission. Horn of the Abyss is not a combo art.
Quote: but Nik312 already said they will nerf the artifact in the future
I have most certainly never said that. The artifact is designed to be absolutely overpowered and will remain so.

Wow. Just wow. Did it ever cross your mind to just... ask about the thing instead of waiting for years? We were telling almost since the release of English version that there will be no more official languages for HotA. That even 2 languages are a great liability in terms of keeping everything up-to-date and more will probably never appear.
However, we are planning to introduce an easier way to create user localizations in one way or another. So, that communities don't have to reverse-engineer anything to create their localization

Yes you did on page 169 I wrote this:
Sounds great with the bug fixes of the newest update.
So I found the Horn of the Abyss artifact for the first time today and I think you guys have created a new Cloak of the Undead King. I managed to get 1196 Fangarms when I won the game. They are 5th level units, might aswell have been Power Liches!
Maybe this artifact needs to be toned down just a little bit...
And you answered: (Unless I missunderstood you)
That was the exact intention

Once again proof you don't properly read other people's answers.
It was the exact intention to have it overpowered.

I wasn't the one who contacted you about possible localization - I just prepared whole bunch of files for the project, the end. And I was told until this very moment that "official polish version" will come, sooner or later.
Well, thanks for claryfing.

Hey there Nik,
love the new decorations and visitable buildings in the new version.
Ony thing crossed my mind tho, are you planning to add more stuff on the underworld platform ?
I mean, more subterranean objects ?
Just a thought - a natural bridge (over the vast void) would be sweet.
EDIT: now that I think of it, maybe some Lava objects too ?

I wonder why with the latest HotA versions it isn't possible to invite heroes in taverns anymore
it's weird cause it is not specified in the game changes
Sorry NVM..that feature is from HD mod not HotA

What does Horn of the Abyss do? It sounds fun from the reactions I'm reading.
And sorry if this was already answered, but is the new campaign fully complete, or will it be updated in the future? I'd like to know before I get invested in it.

Oh, right... I shouldn't have included the last two lines in that quote, sorry)
Quote: I wasn't the one who contacted you about possible localization
Hm. Could you specify who and when was contacted? That may or may not be important
Quote: Ony thing crossed my mind tho, are you planning to add more stuff on the underworld platform ?

Yes, we have that in mind.

Each campaign in the release is considered complete (except for the english texts - those may change in the nearest future to a more polished - no pun intended - version). The storyline of Horn of the Abyss artifact is also considered complete. However, we continiously refresh all campaign maps with new content as it appears and there will be new campaigns with other stories.
