Собственно САБЖ

И для начала:
Опубликованные на Геройском уголке минимальные системные требования к Героям 5, на проверку оказались очередной первоапрельской шуткой. Выяснили это, к сожалению, не сразу, но уже исправили (напомню, что новость от 3 апреля). Так что тем, кто начал подсчитывать стоимость очередного апгрейда, есть повод вздохнуть свободно. Возможно не все так страшно .

New World always wanted Heroes of Might & Magic to stay loyal to the original concept of the game. However, Ubisoft is now working things out a little different, with new and useful addons, like 3D-elements. The city view is now completely in 3D and also the fights are animated with a 3D-animation movie. Mix this with some nice light effects and you know you're dealing with a very good-looking game!

Good news for the less experienced players, since Ubisoft also changed the interface so it's less hard to find your way around the game. With the Trailer Path (also a new addition), every player will leave his mark behind so it's easier for other players to find the enemy. You can tell the strength and size of the enemy's armies by the depth of this Path.

There are a few changes on the battlefield itself as well. The size of battle area now depends on the size of the armies, so it's much better for those who don't like marching around, searching for the opposing army. This should result in quicker battles.

Last but not least, the multiplayer mode now has an additional 'fast mode', that will run much faster then the traditional multiplayer mode. Multiplayer games sometimes used to last for hours. So if you just want a quick battle before supper, you can start up the fast mode and be finished in only about 15 minutes.

Fragland hopes this new game will breng a new and refreshing touch to the series, and the tbs-genre with it. But will Ubisoft succeed in accomplishing this mission? You'll have to wait until 2006 and find out for yourself, when this title hits shelves !

Heroes of Might and Magic V - While I hate to start off with it, the graphics were there in full and wonderful. All 3D and beautiful. Not just the engine, which seemed fairly competent, but the art direction was simply gorgeous. Not the "shiny megabumps OMG" gorgeous, but the feel of a well painted picture gorgeous. Now the encouraging gameplay news is that they seem pretty committed to not screwing it up. It's still HoMM in almost every gameplay detail, which pleased me greatly. My ears perked up however when I heard the dreaded "easier to play, more appealing" line from the dev. So I pressed him on it and it turns out they intend to make the interface easier to use and simpler to make the game go quicker. They seem pretty dedicated to keeping it HoMM and changing the gameplay as little as possible, and using a good UI to make it easier and faster to play. For instance, in combat you can turn on "dynamic battles" which sets a time limit on your turn. It's still the same turn based combat, but now you have to make decisions in a limited time span, which could speed up multiplayer tremendously. Also the size of the battlefield scales with the armies involved, so two small armies facing off meet on a smaller battlefield, in order to resolve the battles more quickly. The basics were there, it looked gorgeous and it seemed they were committed to keeping the HoMM gameplay intact. So far what I've seen has me satisfied, though it's still at least a year off which leaves plenty of time for things to change.
