'Planned changes to Training are moved to version 1.5 (2.1)'

'Resurrection spell will not be changed. And never was planned to.'

Now,need I comment on that?Training delayed once again and res,a freaking 5 lvl spell remains like that?

>Training delayed once again

Yes. Dont let AI play Haven .. or face legions of archers.

I thought the dwarf faction came with the expansion. It is in the patch?

Who cares about AI,even if it does use the strategy-I've seen it do that only once on hard-it's still not nuch of a threat.But a decent+ human opponent...

Wondering what the change in gating will be.

Good to know that dwarves will take into account the other factions and balance.But that could also mean that it will be as bad as academy currently is...Hard to guess with these guys.

I don`t get the part with the dwarves - what does that mean?

Congrats MistWeaver, btw., fpr your first news item!

>I thought the dwarf faction came with the expansion. It is in the patch?
No. There is "add-on" in the bracers.

>I don`t get the part with the dwarves - what does that mean?
That means that Nival is going to make this faction balanced. This one takes roots from public opinion that dwarves are going to be too overpowered.

DaemianLucifer · Unread postby **DaemianLucifer** » 03 Nov 2006, 18:30

Bah,public is clueless.Public oppinion was also that HV is going to be a hit and DM would suck.They should listen to me,or the rebalancing might turn out to be same as elemental chains (over)simplification.

MistWeaver · Unread postby **MistWeaver** » 03 Nov 2006, 18:38

DL, they are not rebalancing dwarves because of the public. They just said that dwarves will be balanced as a response to opinion that they will be not.

Wow, is this supposed to be a joke or something?

- Gating ability will be changed

Way to be specific there.

- Planned changes to Training are moved to version 1.5 (2.1)

What, there is so little being fixed that they have to tell us what isn't being fixed now?

- Sylvan town has some fixed building prices

Care to elaborate or are you too busy messing something else up again that previously worked?

- Resurrection spell will not be changed. And never was planned to.

Once again, so little being changed that the list now contains stuff not being changed.

- Necropolis mage guild price will be fixed

See above for Sylvan.

- Dwarf faction(addon) is being added considering current game balance.

Nice run-on sentence. No wonder we can't get simple things like "enought" fixed with this poor grammar. I don't want to hear again how they are Russian and don't speak English well either. It's called being professional and if they are going to make a product for different languages, they should have someone there who can speak these languages properly.

Actualy this is my sentence, not Nival's This whole stuff is not some kind of official press-release. Its just my translation of OldBoy's post on nival russian H5-forum.

And this is not complete 1.4 change list. Just few things that were asked by community.

Yes.. one more thing .. its not Nival who translates H5 to diffrent languages. Just take russian version - its like if it was translated with online interpreter from arabic. Honestly.

King Imp · Unread postby **King Imp** » 03 Nov 2006, 21:40

Sorry about that Mist. Didn't realize this was a translation by you.

Still, that said, this isn't the first time that they've released news about upcoming patches and they say the stupidest things that sound like a child speaking.

My favorite of all time was when they said in the patch release info "Some other things are fixed."

I swear to you, that was said. How is that professional?

Knowing how things work over here it wouldn't suprize me that they actualy did. Trust me, it's not that they don't know the proper words, it's just that they don't care.
