Today, a letter from Fabrice Cambounet appeared.
He says that work on patch 1.5 for Heroes is progressing at a rapid pace, and new features are being tested and finalized. Fabrice also says that a lot of fan ideas are currently being collected on the Ubi forums, the most interesting ones are being identified, and they are planned to be included in the new patch.
The full version of the letter in English:
HeroesV: Way of the Patch
By Fabrice Cambounet, Producer.

Creating patches and additional content for Heroes 5 has been a bumpy road up to now, with the multiple masters required for the game, as well as the development of the add-on

We are still progressing on the tracks laid out a few months ago. We still have quite a few features being developed, and to be delivered in patch 1.5.

Among them, the duel preset editor is probably one of the most appealing. You will be able to tailor your own hero and play with him on multiplayer duels. We will also expand the map editor with a campaign option: you will be able to link maps together and create mini-campaigns, as complex as you like.

Nival is also working on a tournament tool that will allow anyone to host a small tournament and will manage the rankings between the players.

At this stage we are still gathering ideas and suggestions from the communities: a summary of ideas was done by the French community and another one was sent from Russia. All these ideas are considered and will enter our patch planning if we find them interesting. Of course, during all this time, balance tweaks will still happen!
And here is the translation:)
HeroesV: The Path of the Patch:)
Fabrice Cambounet, Producer:

Creating patches and additional content for Heroes V has been a very difficult task, as well as creating the add-on.

We are still working on the ideas put forward several months ago. We still have several features under development that we will include in patch 1.5.

Among them, the hero editor for duels stands out. You can create your own hero and play as him in duels. We will also improve the map editor by adding the ability to create Campaigns: you can combine several maps into mini-campaigns or create a very large, full-fledged campaign from a dozen maps. Everything is in your hands.
Nival is also working on a tournament editor that will allow anyone to host small tournaments, and it will also maintain a ranking system among players.
At the moment, we are still collecting ideas and suggestions from various communities: most of the ideas were proposed by the French and Russian communities. All of them will be taken into account and may be included in the patch if we find them interesting. But, of course, the balance is still not perfect!
