The version of the game Heroes of Might and Magic V has been on sale for a long time. Sellers present it as an "alpha version" or even a "demo version" of the game, although in reality, it is one of the first working versions of the game that is more than a year old. At one time, during the development process, this version became accessible to people who leaked it. About a year later, the version was uploaded to the internet, and now it has been copied onto CDs for sale.
It is understandable that fans of the series are eager to try out the fifth installment of the game. However, we must warn all potential buyers of these discs that, due to its age, this version does not even provide a rough idea of the game – it contains outdated graphics, a schematic Gameplay, and is practically unplayable due to its instability. Therefore, Nival Interactive urges fans of the Heroes of Might and Magic series not to waste their money and time on this version, which cannot provide either information about the fifth installment of the series or simple enjoyment.

How to distinguish a pirated version from a licensed one:
Buy the disc at stores affiliated with 1C:Multimedia. Their lists can be found here http://games.1c.ru/?type=sales [in these stores, 1C guarantees the purchase of a licensed disc]
The only online stores affiliated with 1C:Multimedia are ozone and balero
The original Heroes of Might and Magic V disc has a blue semi-circular edge on the right + the presence of logos of Nival Interactive and Ubisoft. Inside the box there is a coupon for participation in the "Postcard Promotion".
!!!Nival Interactive guarantees installation of patches and technical support (support) only for buyers of the licensed version of the game. !!!
One day and that’s it!!! My super-duper licensed copy will arrive by mail, and it will be in the great and mighty language, which makes me very happy!!! Just one day... So, the P.I.M.P. tendencies will appear soon.

YES, yes, the sooner the better... for now, I have to satisfy my hungry desire with a regular pirated copy... But tomorrow, I can finally have a real feast...
I personally buy the game for three reasons: to support Nival, because of the excellent translation, and most importantly, to be able to play online with others on the official Heroes server. :cool:
And that too, but I've never played on an offline server, only online. Tell me, is it really scary there?

Funny, I didn't know that, and I bought a pirated version, and everything works fine there; the only difference is the translation: it's in large, capital letters, and the heroes speak in English, so I have to read what they're mumbling about... But otherwise, everything is as it should be... ;)

Nah, why would we need pirated copies? With them:
1) Patches can't be installed.
2) You can't play online.
Enough! I've already bought a couple of "pirated" games... A license is the way to go.

and I repeat, DO NOT BUY PIRATED VERSIONS. Just find someone who has a licensed copy and create an image from their disc (e.g., using Alcohol 120%), and you'll have a completely free licensed copy. And you can also steal the internet key, and playing online is expensive anyway.
Snowball plays using an image and also online with a license; the main thing is to get the key. :)
Tigra was cheeky; he saw what I wrote about the key and edited his post. He stole my idea.

You say don't buy pirated copies, but I searched the whole city and couldn't find a legitimate copy anywhere. Just yesterday, I went into a small store and saw a licensed copy. Now, of course, I'll buy it; 350 rubles is worth it for such a game, but I'll wait for the second patch.

Only play the licensed version! I will only buy genuine copies of Heroes! And playing online isn't expensive, at least for me!
Скоро! Всем ждать! Они явятся!:smile20:

Yes, comrades! You created the right topic! Never buy pirated copies! I bought one, and now I'm suffering! The translation is just unbelievable. For example, unupgraded Nightmares are called "Hell Chargers." What else could I do? It's hard to find a legitimate copy anywhere! Even if it's on 4 discs, in a bag, and costs 350 rubles, it doesn't necessarily mean it's a legitimate copy.

I also try to buy the licensed version. But they often delay the release. Sometimes the pirated version is already available, but the licensed version is nowhere to be found. Like with the fourth Civilization.
