Posts from Are there any plans to make a sixth installment in the Heroes series? Auto-translated

Are they planning to make Heroes 6? For the most clueless, that is, for me. If they are, please announce the start date of development and, if available, the release date. Sorry if I'm being a clueless person.

This is my first post. The topic is: "Are they planning to make Heroes 6?". And in general, I'm not even writing on the right topic anymore; this thread isn't for criticizing off-topic posters.

Of course, 6 Heroes is good, even very good, and it seems someone is working on it, but it probably won't be released in the next year or two, and most likely one or two more expansions for 5 will be released, although they wrote (somewhere I read) that Tribes of the East is the last part of Heroes 5. In general, as my friend, a staunch fan of Heroes 3, says, Heroes 5 is the same as 3, only with three times better graphics, and I somehow support him in this matter. Most of my friends who are fond of this game prefer version 3 or 5. Somehow, 3.5 and 4 didn't catch on with them (I'm not criticizing fans of these parts, just a personal opinion and observation). So, I think it will be the same with 6, so let's not rush things.

No one doubts that they will be released :) ;) We are more likely discussing what we would like them to be like))) although there are many such topics, but what can you do? :)
Nevertheless, I agree that it will take 1-2 years, although maybe even longer, the main thing is that a quality product is released.
As sad as it is to admit, the 4th part was released in a hurry. The game turned out to be good (it's actually my favorite part), but there are too many bugs in it, and that's very sad. Fewer hidden loopholes would be better.
You need to play using your mind, not the game's flaws, because this primarily harms the game itself....

This is just my personal opinion. It would have been better if Nival and Ubisoft didn't rush with the new Heroes game. Let us wait 5-6 years, or even longer, but we'll get a truly high-quality product with innovative features (in my opinion, they are essential; they added some interesting things to the fifth game, and I was thrilled, and I don't agree with the opinion that the fifth game is just the third game in 3D). During the waiting time, I would like to see new patches, maps (there aren't that many interesting 1v1 maps, and that's what's missing for tournaments, for example), and possibly even campaigns (not add-ons, but free campaigns, for example, a campaign telling about what Faydaen was doing while everyone else was dealing with Biara, a campaign about the adventures of Railag (although, this is unlikely), maybe something from history).

For some reason, I don't believe that Ubisoft will wait 5-6 years.

For some reason, I don't believe that Ubisoft will wait 5-6 years.

As a fan of the series, I want to believe that. Considering that Heroes 6 will be a fundamentally new game, not an add-on, the timeframe seems quite reasonable. And I want it to be a polished product, a balanced game with a minimum of bugs. Because when I remember version 1.0... Brrr...

P.S. In general, balancing takes a lot of time, as it is one of the most important criteria for a strategy game, but it is quite rare to achieve a perfect balance initially; patches, etc., are still necessary.

Personally, I believe that we will have to wait a long time for the sixth installment of Heroes. Heroes is not like NFS or Call of Duty, where you play it twice and then wait for the next part. Heroes is like chess; you can play it and play it endlessly without ever fully mastering it. The random map generator, Map Editor, and the ability to play with two players (even on one computer) are what will keep the game alive forever...

Ubisoft has already earned a huge amount from sales and will earn even more. And now, they can relax for 3 or 4 years and continue to profit.

As for Might & Magic 10, I believe that Ubisoft is not capable of creating the kind of Might & Magic that we all love...

Here are the general responses to the letters, but I have this feeling, and it might be wrong, that Heroes 6 will be developed by Russian developers. http://www.heroes6.ru/quest.php

Hmm... interesting.
Maybe we should write a letter too? To suggest adding new factions (Bolotnikov and others), changing the mobs, or improving the visual appearance, etc. I have a lot of suggestions. Hehe.

P.S. I would also like to participate in the development, mainly in terms of game design (factions, units, artifacts, etc.), and maybe a little bit in the graphics.

Hmm... interesting.

P.S. Actually, I would like to participate in the development. Mainly in the game design (factions, units, artifacts, etc.), and maybe a little bit in the graphics.

Figure it out yourself, and suggest whatever you want.

I've had a HUGE number of ideas for a long time. I just need 2-3 hours of free time, and I'll write down everything I want. Maybe I'll create a thread here, and everyone can share their ideas.

Hmm... interesting))
Maybe we should write a letter too? To suggest adding new creatures (Bogatyr and others), changing the mobs, or improving the appearance, etc.)))... I have many suggestions =)

Then, diversify the super-abilities of creatures and the dynamics of combat if your dream comes true.

Of course, Heroes 6 will happen! :smile02:

But the developers have such a huge responsibility that it's breathtaking! :eek: I think it's necessary to find a compromise. Try to take into account the wishes of the majority of players. Some don't like 3D, some don't like 2D - you could make it possible to switch between dimensions (this is just an example).

Cities are a whole different story! Will they add more cities to the existing 8 (in the Fifth game)? Hmm... you could add the beloved swamp and Conflux. Or you could come up with something new (of course, without deviating too much from the standards... I don't think anyone would want to see a City of Flying Berserker Jackals :D)! But will this benefit the game? Won't players' brains overload as they try to understand all the nuances of 10+ (!) races? :D This is a very big question!!! (Balance, again!)

I would like the game to be made by Nival, because the fifth game turned out to be very high quality, at least in terms of graphics! Russian developers already have a lot of experience. I hope that the sixth part will be even better!

In general, the gamers' universal love for the series has not been canceled by anyone! Therefore, the release of the Sixth part is only a matter of time! I'm 100% sure!:smile02:

Well, if the developers don't make Heroes 6, they'll be cursed and jinxed to death:D
I had an idea: create a race editor! This is something that absolutely needs to be in Heroes 6!
Larsson, that's a great idea about dimensions!
But that's for a separate topic, which hasn't been created yet.

Well, you're exaggerating about the editor... It'll end up like with the "Domkrat Berserkers"! :D Imagine: - Who are you playing as today? - As the Domkrats... - Who are they??? :eek: Where's the balance in that case? The player will start creating something indescribable that will destroy everything... There will be a race to create the highest quality units (I mean health or damage dealt)... No, thank you... Let's leave that to the developers! :) You can't deviate so much from the standards... Otherwise, it will become a completely different game... and, above all, a different universe, not a "Heroes" universe... ;)
