Are their coders incompetent?

I don't think so. Most likely, the problem is that a project like "Heroes of Might and Magic" is too complex for a company like "Black Hole." Another issue is that their services are cheaper than those of larger and more experienced firms. That's why they hired Hungarians for development, without considering the consequences. Or maybe they did consider them. In any case, "Black Hole" really tried; they wanted to create a quality game. Just look at how it looked in August 2010 – it was magnificent. If it weren't for the ****** publisher, things could have been different now, IMHO. They just needed to give them enough time and resources. An example is "Diablo III." Work has been going on for almost 10 years, and the result is already clearly visible. That's how you should approach things. But the shoddy work of "UbiSoft" is disgusting; they should be ashamed.

They still haven't managed to make a "Remember me" button in the launcher. It's annoying.

"Remember" didn't work before, and I don't think it will work now either.

Which button are you talking about? Is it this one? If so, that's very strange. The launcher always remembers me.

And which edition do you have, sir? Mine is from "Buki".

You're the only one here.

Mine is also from Buki: Here it is.

That's strange. Why did Ubilancher remember me specifically...?

Overall, the patch didn't live up to expectations. Now we're waiting for 1.4.

I also have something from Buku:

That's strange. Why did Ubilauncher remember me specifically...

There are already two of us...:D

In general, the patch didn't meet expectations. Now we're waiting for 1.4.

Yeah, the hype, the intrigue, the prolonged release... And I still can't play the second mission for Necropolis; it kicks me out of the game on the third turn, and the patch didn't help.

Hmm... it works fine for me too.

Yeah, the hype, the intrigue, the prolonged release... And I still can't beat the second mission for Necropolis; it crashes on the third turn, and the patch didn't help.

This is the price you pay for Ubilauncher remembering you.

PS: Honestly, I'm starting to feel a bit tired of the game. We waited so long for it, and the released product is raw and hasn't been properly improved in about six months.
At least they could add a map generator; it would provide more entertainment. Not everyone knows how to use the editor.

It will take quite some time before the new developer, Limbic, gets familiar with the program's code. So, don't expect anything major in the coming months.

Sixth installment of Heroes is nonsense, IMHO. When I first installed the pirated version and started playing, the first thing I didn't like was the map itself. It feels like you're walking through a corridor, like in King's Bounty, but what finally killed my desire to buy this product was the removal of the town screen (!!!). Seeing that small window, I thought: I must have downloaded a demo version with reduced towns, yeah right, I was dreaming. The developers decided that the town was unnecessary... On top of that, this system with forts and mines, did it really appeal to anyone who played the third or fifth Heroes games? Even Heroes 4 will be much better, at least because of its atmosphere and excellent musical accompaniment.
