Just a general consensus on what we're doing? Testing Patch 1.8 and working on a future Patch for after 1.8, changing how the current Skill system work, tweaks to how Simturns work, and other such goodies i'm not allowed to talk about yet.
Can't exactly call it news, but it's better than nothing

Well, I guess they are working on an expansion, since it is not really possible that they are working just on patches, since it can be plainly seen that the delivery of patches is too slow. Even if they are working on an expansion it should be ready soon, since almost half a year has passed. But sure, it is also possible that they are doing nothing or reduced the team to like 10%, which is basically equals nothing.

I am not sure if I can call it news but I can copy for you some information I got a months ago or a bit later.
It is not something totally new but it's at least something to know.

VIPs have currently got a beta build to play and a common report is AI
is much better now, more work of course is going into it but just using
the 'wait command' and the creature abilities is a big deal, plus we
have a new priority system (no more splitting stacks into 1 to make them shoot it) Thats for combat, so it kinda covers duels, in that duels will be harder as an offset of increased combat AI.
Adventure map AI is always being made more efficient, it's getting there for sure.
As for Duels in general. We're adding some more heroes, I don't think
you'll ever have an option to customise what skills a hero will have,
but increasing the hero pool is certainly something that is happening
and i've already started sending the appropriate messages to people to look into that.
Now you'll be able to play the campaign with the new changes, and they are VERY different. When I say now of course I mean when they're in game. But that is hopefully not long.
End game (stat screen) is something in consideration (with way more stats compared to previous heroes games actually) and I have been involved in meetings about this. If it's 100% happening is not decided fully (shame I don't make the final decisions) but if it were to come it wouldn't be soon (lets say more than 1.5months)
More unit abilities are coming but not quite how you'de imagine.
Hero specialisation is a hot topic of mine. I need to push it for a meeting but right now it's a 'lower' priority as i'm pushing other areas that are more important and will provide greater end user experience, but i'm 100% in my notes. Any new heros that might or might not be introduced will have a more 'unique' specialization however.

Any kind of hope for Heroes 7 should be clinically assessed.
I' m sure u meant to say "welcome to our forum new people who might like the game,feel comfortable expressing your opinion here"
I also think that hope the game is barely existent,if not gone already,but I also do enjoy most aspects of the game. This forum knows my views on that as it knows yours very very well . Don't repeat yourselves people. You said what you had to say, leave room for other people to speak about smth different.

So who thinks there will be a Heroes 8? Given how Ubisoft milks everything, I assume there will be.

Let me guess: "H7 was too conservative, this is why it failed, now we have a new vision, Striders rule the world with Deers and we decided to switch to RTS because we can't be stuck in the past foreva".

Hmm.. Neon green deer with spider-leg antlers.. Could be arranged lore-wise and would allow the necro lineup to evolve.. The upgrade could even become a vampire deer!

I see. I have seen New World Computing's concept art and 3d renders of their vision of Heroes 5 and it looked pretty interesting.
As for Heroes 8? It will probably happen knowing Ubisoft but I doubt it will be good. I have long given up hope of their ever being a good Heroes of Might and Magic game.

To be honest, if any H8 appears, I really doubt it can be more conservative and more similar to its predecessors than H7 is.
