Also, a small advantage of us-the fans, could be ubi's emplyers and their love for this game/prefessionalism. This fraction limit is zero ot tend to be zero. Just another. How can someone care about the game, when they dont even keep the fans informed? Had a look at the sites of ubi or nival? We are just a summ of money for them. The logo of this company should be like> Keep them boiled, they finally will pay for whatever we do, even if its nothing!
Nice day fellows

Who cares? Of course they are in this for money. Why should they not be? Whine about it all you like. I only pay them for the game if I like it. If not I do not buy it and that is the end of it. Some people have a sense of entitlement, as if Ubi is their slave, to produce games for them at whatever price they want, at whatever level of quality they desire...

Its a bit hard to figure out LEGALLY if you really like the game or if it has horrendous flaws.

1C > Nival. I just started playing King's Bounty the Legend and I think Ubisoft should look use 1C for Heroes 6. The game have so more polish and I have zero technical issues so far, something that Nival was unable to do with several patches.

1c is the publisher right? Katauri made the game? And whoever it was how is their track record on multiplayer? Did Fantasty Wars have it, I don't think so.

Anyway they could make a smashing heroes game and I would prefer them to Nival. What's more, it seems a more realistic possibility than say Blizzard taking over.

I don't know what the community expects HOMM to be but V blew my expectations away! I hope Nival gets the gig because I didn't know I could enjoy a PC game nearly daily for this many years.

As soon as I start scenario or random map AI turn started to crawl.In HoMM 4 full AI turn in the middle of the game ,with 5 AI players, take less time then AI proceeding AI turn only of one AI player in HoMM 5 on first AI turn only! On second AI turn in HoMM 5 scenarion I went to kitchen to cut a piece of cheese came back to computer-AI turn was still going on,so I went
to kitchen one more time got back and AI turn was only finishing .So I had to quit that scenario for I just did not want to wait for 10-20 min for AI to proceede turn in the mid of the game.Thank you, for money thrown away.Yes, I know campaign works all right, but this is a strategy game-people want to play scenarios too!
That's why I think that Nival is not good,not
good at all,and urge Ubisoft to find a developer
who could make the game working on reasonable
level.Waiting for AI taking 5-10 minutes to
accomplich AI turn for strategy game with hundreds of turns is real wrong thing.

Honestly, if I had Nival and Katauri to pick from, I'd go with Katauri without a doubt. They released a rock-solid game in the M&M universe, very addictive, almost bug-free (I had a few crashes), optimized for a wide system range, developer is supporting it more properly (and the fact that it shipped in a polished state makes it require less support). But I don't see that happening, as far as I know the contracts have all been signed already right?

Yeah you might be right
Nival has one strategy card game
Etherlords series.
They generally could not programm AI turns
as it accepted in turn-based strategy game.
I only played demo for KB but it is kind of allright ,hard to say buy demo only of course.

While I still think Nival should be kept on now that they've gotten a handle on the Heroes series, apparently "somebody else" doesn't feel the same way. *waves bye to Nival*

Let's see where that leads us. H6 can achieve so much, one can only hope

Lots of somebodies don't feel so. The question is - is the somebody you refer to someone whose opinion bears any weight?

*Looks at chuck with a spook kinda wondering eyes*

I just hope that the old adage about changing horses in midstream doesn't apply..........

*Pokes Sir Charles repeatedly to see if he can be awakened so that he can come with more info*

Hey, quit pokin'!

More info? Huh, what do you mean? I don't know what you're talking about.

Boy, I sure am Hungary. *drools*

(for those interested, there's a small hint in there...but it's all you're gonna get, sorry)

*Begins researching Hungarian companies*

Would be nice with an announcement of HoMM VI soon Far too much real life for me now at days. Need something to delve into online, other than work.

Wait ? No more Nival.. and Hungary eh ?.. Well thanks for the info i suppose.. although this might go wrongish..

Well well well. You sure you're hungry there Chuck?
Damn, it's been a long time since I last posted here... Well, hello all fellow forumdwellers. We meet again
