You don't have to be connected all the time to play. Are you guys crazy? All that happens if you're not connected all the time is that your achivements arent stored.

Alright, thanks. I couldn't really know since it's not written anywhere clearly and since the Icon still says Single unit. Also the AI is building single units all thetime. Overall the things I'most impressed with this game are the effecient way the AI constructs its cities and the general breath of fresh air that the game is in terms of its many innovative features and graphics. But it all fails short in practtise. Take for example the c

Thanks for answering. It really feels as if I've bought an alpha build. Is it really meant to be that I can't build single units even for future designs of pioneers. The only way seems to be to never delete the pioneer class cause switching to him creates a single unit and then you can pick single for others to. Why is the single Unit icon = Party? Why does the AI on challenging level not pick up abandoned villages and mines? Why have you gu

Thank you very much Steven! Would you say the two engines are playable? Do I have to have the original copies of the game to play the game? Ah damnit I do...Ah well. Not a huge issue I guess. So have they improved the HoMM 2 AI anything? (I actually have two copies of HoMM 3, Complete and the classic Original but they are at my dads and I don't have a copy of HoMM2 anymore)

Well I don't mind the campaign actually. While it was a bit irritating to know you can't use all the functions it does seem like a nice story and all :)

It's true that the AI has trouble with the boats. The only way I could beat some of the really high civ levels (Think I beat Diety, Demigod for sure) was to use island hopping and maps with alot of water. I've seen people beat these cheating AI bastards without this to but I simply wasn't good enough and I could see the difference from land to sea. Still if the AI could handle them it would be very good. Or at least the option to have them in multiplayer-games.

If you reas the manual the difference between the AI's is the use of complex and incomplex algorithms. On easy it used alot more incomplex ones and may thusly do things that seem unexpected to you. It's not that it's as much "easy" as it is brutish.

I have yet to reach that part. I have just played the campaign more or less since it's a bit more of a "go ho" and my unit creation seems bugged as I can't even build single units of explorers and settlers but always in groups of 4. I understand that this is a intended feature nowdays but only for combat units? Anyway Ive heard stories about the terraforming magic to. Seems a bit to strong indeed. Maybe if it could be coded out of the game the game would be far

Not sure how I edit posts so I'll Double Post, sorry for that. Oh yeah guys. Consider a release like this for titles that start nearing the 10 year mark to or for releases of smaller games/programs: http://www.humblebundle.com/

Very admirable of you indeed. If you are truly wishing to go as far as it's needed for our civilization to continue to progress I would suggest these measures: Never, ever let yourselves be sued like EA is in various places of Europe now over invasive tools that scan harddrives and look for newely installed products or driver updates. Ask for people to fill in charts or ask for volounteers to submit these informations according to stric

Wait guys so because I waited and bought Elemental War of Magic later, hoping that it would finally be a finished product (and still encountering such graphical bugs that made me spend several hours just to get the thing running) won't even get a discount because the game wasn't bought pre-2010? :( I mean the game I bought wasn't very expensive at all considering it was a digital download. But then again it is still a game that I don't consider has left

Hello. Guys I need some help with several things but let's start with the most serious. I can't build single explorers or other units without using various bugs. I have only to choose from Party and Squad (Party represented by the single unit icon and Squad by the 3 people icon). This is in direct contrast to the manual in which you have several more options and in which clearly the single unit icon represents a single unit.</
