>some map templates give me plenty of resources to easily outscale the AI>some maps are barren as fuck, but AI seems unaffected Is the game balanced solely around multiplayer or something?
The AI cheating seems like an immutable part of this franchise
>>738774556They literally tell you that on higher difficulties the AI start with more resources.Also you probably underestimate the compounding benefits of not losing a single unit every fight.
I've been to 4chan since 2004 and I hate HoMM threads because 99% of posters only play singleplayer. I play multiplayer and it's like being an adult talking with toddlers.
all map templates are dogshit, use the custom map generator which unironically churns out good maps
add fortress already
I beat the tutorial and have started the Campaign, 2-3 missions in and I feel like the game is finally clicking with me (I tried with HoMM3 but it didnt), I think I might need some times to replay the map because you need knowledge of where everything is in order not to fuck up the mission but otherwise it seems to be a matter of how strong can you get your stacks in the shortest time possible and whether you know when to split them, that and some spell throwing from the hero.I've also been playing whatever the hard difficulty is called where in HoMM3 I would get analy raped on easy by the AI but that's on me, I think I finally put 2 and 2 together
>>738777325She always looked like a babushka to me.
>>738777325I hope they will. I mean the lizardmen island is already there on the word map.
Dunno why there are single-hero map templates. Noone's gonna play that shit.
>>738775597Here's the thing: HoMM multiplayer is fucking terrible is why. You just have shit taste.HoMM3 needed a million fucking houserules in order to be even remotely playable, and by that point it's just an autismfest. Game just fundamentally unsuited for an actual back-and-forth game.Also you're a gay fag and I fucked your dad.
>>738775597Wanna play together? I mostly play 4/5 but could learn OE>>738780617>HoMM 3 is terribleFixed that for ya
This reminds me, I either watched a VOD or caught live HOMM3 tournament once and it was an actually bizarre sight. Both players had stacks in 4-digits even for highest tiers and the player had windows calculator open doing damage math
>>738774556Can I play the campaign without having to hear the shitty voice acting yet? Is there really no voice volume slider or some other option to turn it off? I checked twice now and found nothing. There's literally a separate UI SFX slider, I can't believe they'd leave out something like voice volume.
>>738781394Literally just spam click and it'll skip the dialogue? I've heard some autistic complaints about OE but this one takes the cake
>>738775597Do you mean multiplayer as in playing with mates or multiplayer as in sweaty mlg 1v1 against a random? Because very few like the latter while many engage in the former, if you do the latter I'm sorry you chose this series to be autistic in, could've been a lot better.
What is the point of the Single Hero mode maps? You need mules to get stuff man
>>738783137Every single hero can learn expert town portal in this game
>>738775597Playing multiplayer HoMM is not fun. It's just the same repetetive race on whoever can cheese it with armageddon spell or whoever get teleportation first.
>playing against the CPU sucks because it's either invades you at week two and the game ends there no matter if you win or lose the fightOR>you play on a big map and the CPU stops scaling after a few weeks and it has 1/10 of your army even at the highest difficulty>all the multiplayer PvP maps are so shitty designed it's like someone took all the good stuff from HoMM and just threw in a trash canThis agme sucks, good thing I never bought it
>>738781080>not watching jebus
>>738783308AI sucks in this game for sure, it's not fun to play against.It not only cheats but it also retarded.There are no good scenario maps.Campaign is unfinished and frankly quite bad.I think they can at least give us better PvP experience, because right now templates are awful.I still had fun because I played with IRL friends. For once I'm happy it's early access because they have to still do a lot of work.
>>738775597HoMM is the reverse Dominions.
>>738783308Hey, people enjoy it but im also on the boat of dozen h played without the seeing how I could i invest any more in it.Game seems to be skeewed into perfect movement/start + some tweks for few best heroes. Im after 2 games with two factions and it just to repetetive l, even for turn strat, which is what im playing since 90s.People forget (me included) how simple were games back in the day and want more.It was the same with orginal dungeon sige which i viewed as an awsome game back in the day, i replayed it last year and quited after 5h or smth, because it was so simple, barren and repetitive.Muliplayer is already filled with autism, aditional rules for choosing stuff ect.
>Artifacts carry over in campaignsThat's pretty funny but also makes campaigns a complete joke. There's artifacts that can be upgraded an unlimited number of times so you can just get +100 of a stat if you pass turn enough to get enough upgrade dust. That's also funny.
Is it just me or are G maps too big for their own good.It's clear by the time you explore half the map that you have won yet you still have to go through the ordeal of rushing all the towns, AI can't scale for shitWhat's the ideal map size?
>>738786520For the AI? I don't think there is one. AI really needs some tweaking. Maybe it's better on the highest difficulty? Dunno, haven't tried that yet.
