Probably no changes. Trying to get a unique balanced faction would be hard enough work for them.

I asked this on nival forum.
Later when Old Boy ( from Nival) was answering questions, he mentioned that tweaking AI is the most difficult and laborious task from any. And 1.4 would contain just minor AI tweaks.

So I suppose this means that we can expect no major changes to AI until H6. (goddamnit)

Did you by remote chance learn when 1.4 is going to be out?It's been a while since we heard any news.
I, for one, am dying to find out what colour they paint Michael's toenails.

Somehow I'm not surprised.Still this guy's tone is like 'mind your own business'.Does he have any idea of customer relations?

Don't know why they do not focus on AI tweaks. I think I've made a good choice to not buy the game since I'm not encouraging bad AI on the Heroes series. Like H4, H5 had so much potential but unbalanced gamplay and bad AI makes me forget more and more how I used to be up late and play HOMM.

To be honest, I would gladly spend my money if they would promise lot AI tweaks.

Oh please.. nival shows absolutely NO respect towards customers. Do you guys remember beta time when ppl said that battle field is too small, and Nival should make it larger ?

Here (in russian)
http://www.dtf.ru/articles/read.php?id=41640&page=3

aprox. trans:
"Arena size was 8x10. With this arena there were no problems: creatures are well seen, there is tactics, gameplay is great. But then closed and opened beta testing began. Our beloved fans yelled "Arena is too small!!!" and whined (as was said by one of the devs - very correct word) 2 more titles. They could scare publisher so much that it made a decision to add 2 titles on width and height.


Using words such as "whining" towards customers shows it all. But I belive no one at Nival gives a f*ck about that.

Oh,just without any reason,do some of you remember that devil that was among the insightfull minority that said the BF is too small even before the beta stareted?Way before.The very first time they said there will be huge squares.And some of you that complain the BF is too small now,defended it back then.Do you remember it,eh?Just out of curriosity,nothing else :devious: :devil:

Dang, you mean Stefan wasn't the 'good' version, and you two the 'evil' versions? Hmm well that would explain why Stefan does have some evil in him..now if only I could awaken it a little more :)

No, that was shooting oneself in the cheek from inside the mouth. Of course, as both of us are as crazy as the other, imbracing the inner psycho isn't gonna make him go away from you hallucinations. There is no Banner, just us 2 Hulks.
