Countdown to B-Day
Countdown to B-Day
The open beta test could start anytime now, judging from what the <a href="/http://forums.ubi.com/groupee/forums/a/ ... 36993">new community manager</a>, Jinx, <a href="/http://forums.ubi.com/groupee/forums/a/ ... >announced a couple of days ago</a>. Solmyr, RLHvanDijk, Polaris and forum mascot Znork tried to <a href="/http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/pl ... .gif">make her talk more</a> earlier today, but with very little success: <i>"news soon. it only got mentioned a few days ago!"</i> And later on: <i>"did see the game in action yesterday. it was great."</i> She is a woman of a few words.
While you wait, you can look at <a href="/https://www.celestialheavens.com/417">concept art of the Heroes V protagonists</a>, Isabel and Agrael (thanks Igoraki). There is also <a href="/http://www.nival.com/homm5_ru/pressa/4123/">two tiny new screenshots on the Nival site</a> (thanks Age of Heroes). Is that The Flash on the right?

When it will be release exactly (the beta )???
Countdown to B-Day
The beta begins January the 19th. Scroll down the front page and you will see the announcement.
...
In the first of those new screens there is what looks like a rust/gold dragon, which would make it neutral. Or maybe it's the sylvan "green dragon" that they decided to give another colour. In the second we have a shadow dragon I presume.

Well Age of Heroes has Gold as the upgrade for Green Dragon, so that's most likely a Gold one.Morannon wrote:The beta begins January the 19th. Scroll down the front page and you will see the announcement.

Where can we probably find the beta when it starts? I mean there are several official sites. Do you think we will get to see all creatures, or just from 2 or 3 factions.

I mean, its a beta, so you'd think we get the whole game to sort out bugs. Compared to a demo

I konw this but I cant wait for a very llong time. I must go to the school at 12. 00 after I can apply for the beta. My copmuter requirements will be enough? (AMD XP 64 bit 2800+ , 1 GB Hynix ram, Ati 9600 XT with 256 ram)

Sorry for my mistakes , these were because of my keyboard s problem.

The shadow dragon is kind of small, looks more like a scared drake. I hope the black one is bigger.
Countdown to B-Day
if everyone is talking about the same picture let's think about this:
the dragon wasn't erect.
the colossus might well be the BIGGEST creature in the damn game (Colossus. think about it).
you don't need to be big to be powerful.
the black dragon might have the strongest attack but maybe it isn't so touch defense wise?
everyone loves the blackie. why isn't anyone whining about the colossus? his design is much more boring.

Well, I think those dragons should be a bit bigger, they play a major role in the game...
About the beta: I don't know why so many of you have a desire to play it. I'm from the kind of gamers who like to play the final game, in it's full bloom , not the bugged one (altough, the fact that the game will be released soon, I presume there won't be many ). I've waited soooooo long for this game, I can wait a bit longer....

Hmm I think its a gold/bronze/rust dragon etc, judging from the color unless the lighting effects are a bit bright which makes the green look gold. I dont think they will replace the green with gold upg> emerald but its possible, still I hope there will be green instead of gold as downgrade, fits better because the morphing from green to emerald seems more logical than gold--> emerald
I guess it looks more like a shadow dragon than black dragon, if you keep a close eye on where the dragons head get lighted by its breath, it looks more dark grey (with a touch of green) than black. And if you see the concept art of the Shadow Dragon, you will see that the dragon have a color blend of grey-greenish.
So dont worry about if the black dragon will really be black enough judging from the Dungeon VS Academy screenie, Im pretty sure it was a shadow dragon on that picture not a black one.

Betas are even inferior than demos. They lack of content (At least this one) and still have some bugs (Small ones, the worst ones have already been corrected in the closed beta )

I still don't get that stupid WoG puzzle.

I think the open beta will be release on tomorrow not today. ))

It's official: the launch of open beta has been postponed. News on the French site.
Frankly, I half expected it to happen. We've seen plenty of delays up to this stage.

As per http://www.mightandmagicgame.com/fr/ (translated)
It was decided to defer the launching ofopen beta planned for Heroes of Might and Magic V. An official statement on the effective date of launching of this beta will be carried out later on.
It was noted that beta could not have provided you a satisfactory vision of the play and, in order to provide you a product of better quality, it was thus decided to defer launching. All the team works now to finish as soon as possible with best possible quality the last adjustments on this open beta.
We excuse ourselves for all the hopes born today and which cannot be satisfied. We hope that you will understand that it is for better satisfying you than we had to make this decision.
Still all our excuses.

And then how many days later approximately???
Countdown to B-Day
There was no statement as to how long the open will be delayed.
I am actually glad that it is delayed. The more they get fixed before the masses see it, the better off everyone is.
