Is the surprise Clash of Heroes II, lying under someone's bed in secrecy?

So, Marzhin, what if I told you that I had a pretty good idea about your little "surprise" there? Should I or should I not spoil?


That's an interesting question. It reminds me of the riddle of the two doors, where one leads to certain death and the other to freedom. Either you truly know something, or you don't.

If you don't know anything, all you'll do is troll the other fans.

If you do know something, then apart from ruining my surprise, killing my fun and making me dislike you a lot, it would also be quite revealing. As if you do know about the surprise, there's only one way you could have learnt about it.

In the end of the day... it's your choice I won't confirm nor deny anything you say.

I feel threatened now.

But just to confirm to you that I actually do know, and straight from the horses' mouth at that - do you remember us talking back at the fan day?

Burn H6 in hell first. And like Stalin erase it from its existence, history, evidence, destroy every detail of it.

Does anyone know whether non-construct warfare units will have victory animation or not? I really liked faceless' evil laugh.

A quick question. Will Heropedia include hero classes and their descriptions? Will they include animations, images or both?

You told us to have a newer build, so what is the deal, huh? Beta 2 is a real TORTURE!


When we were told about the beta's extension, we've asked ourselves about patching it. I'm not a tech guy but from what I understand eventually it came down to something like this:
Basically, the beta build is a branch of the main build. That branch is compiled, packaged, and made available to players after going through testing.
As you can imagine, the dev team is fixing bugs on the main build: the game itself. Updating beta 2 would therefore mean applying the fixes to the beta branch, that is already outdated in many areas. It would take time and manpower that, currently, is much needed on the frontline.
Another way to go would be to create a new branch, based on the current state of the main build, but that would basically be Beta 3. Again, it would take time and manpower, and since it's a brand new version it would have to go through testing again, etc. Considering it takes between 1 and 2 week to have a greenlight to publish...
So to sum it up, we have to choose our battles, and the main game is obviously our priority.

I get it, but extention of this beta has no sense, then. People can't play big maps, people get crashes, the AI is ... you name it. I mean, I will not play the small map again and again, especially if the AI is so stupid and I blow up everyone in my first game on Heroic.

Oh, well, good luck with the main release. It may be hard

I think even Beta testers deserve some challenge to be engaged etc.

I work in software dev and Marzhin is right - they couldn't possibly give a beta that stays up to date with the day by day improvements. But I think they should have put the release date back to... say December, and leave more time for feedback and changes. I feel H7 has been too rushed.

I hope there will be plenty of expansion packs. I don't mind paying as long as they take their time and make H7 good like they did with H5.
