I'm not a fan of Star... I only know about this game from hearsay. I'm a fan of Heroes and Warlock... But still, judging by how rarely patches were released, it means that the balance was practically fine. But even if you take version 1.3, it still didn't really change the balance in Heroes at all... It's still far from perfect.

Yes, everything is fine. I'm starting to enjoy the game. The map sizes seem appropriate. The main thing now is a map generator and, ideally, composite artifacts. I would also like them to populate the sea with at least neutral creatures.

I'm a fan of Heroes and War... But still, judge for yourself how rarely patches were released, which means the balance there was practically all okay.
Correctly speaking, patches for previous Heroes games were released rarely, and BALANCE doesn't even know such games exist; it was never there to begin with. And as for War.... So, the game was released on 23 June 2002, which is a little over 4 years ago. Now the version is 1.20e; over the last 1.5 years, patches have been released from 1.19 (a,b,c) to the current one; before that, in 2.5 years, 19 patches were released, and again each was 1.x, 1.xb, and the last 7 even had d. I'll say it once more: if you don't know what you're talking about, keep quiet....

P.S. Sorry for the off-topic, I just can't stand such "smart" comments.....
P.P.S. If I offended anyone, sorry. Respectfully, Alan.

Dude, what are you doing? Why are you bringing StarCraft into this? We were comparing Heroes 5 to StarCraft. And I told you about the patches that rarely came out for the older Heroes games, but more often for StarCraft, and even then, not all of them were for balancing. And patch 1.3 for Heroes 5, again, didn't improve the balance; it was still as bad as before!

Ugh, as I said before, it’s hard to communicate with someone who only listens to themselves. I won’t argue anymore; it’s pointless....

P.S. If you look at my post #63, you’ll see that I started it with YOUR quote about Heroes and Barbarians.
P.P.S. Anyway, that’s enough.... IMHO, the patch improved the balance both within and between the factions.... I’m looking forward to the expansion.

As for Вар.... So, the game was released on June 23, 2002, which is a little over 4 years ago. Currently, it's version 1.20e, and in the last 1.5 years, patches have been released from 1.19 (a, b, c) to the current one. Before that, over 2.5 years, 19 patches were released, and each was 1.x, 1.xb, and the last 7 were even with c and d.

Keep in mind that these 20 patches over 4 years weigh almost as much as 3 patches for Heroes. But it's already good that Nival has started working on balancing.

And patch 1.3 for Heroes 5, again, left the balance as bad as it was before!

I disagree, 1.3 introduced quite significant changes to the game. But it's not enough, and I agree with you on that.
