IMPORTANT: For Anyone Who Loves WCIII , Please Read!

Well guess what, it looks worse now.

And armies of Azeroth, yeah… the mod that Fans made, and that if something like that its done in Warcraft 3 online nowdays, or anything similar in a way that could catch blizz’s interest, it would get its rights claimed so they couuld then profit from it in a stand alone game… so cool…

Instead of writting a long text like that, its easier to compare these people with the beaten wife/husband that wont speak up about it with the authorities because they have the mindset of “Oh they will change”

Warcraft III Reforged is an amazing game (Especially as a visual remaster) and clearly don’t deserve so low Metacritic
It’s an amazing game with a lot of work done and idiots destroyed it even after Blizzard 3 months ago told them what to excpect
They told you they aren’t remaking cutscenes
They told you they will put new locations and refferences to WoW but not change it entirely
They showed you a bit of Fight you’re now calling awful

Sry m8 but i dont see it this way! Blizzard/Activison made a promo for a prodact,that prodact isnt what it was sopouse to be.Thats a scam move(and i think not only for me!)!!! DEV’s got responsibility as well the rest of the creative parts of a project! Yea they are expoited, burned out, crunched and of course manipulated in other ways so that they genarate more money. But for me that maks it more prominent that DEV’s and all the people working on a project to step in and if need it go on a strike to make there point go throu the “money brainers”. I preorder the game the moment it was announced, was THAT EXITED! Big mistake it seams…! They delay the game for a month giv or take, nut if the game was not ready it be beter for a honest open apology and a delay for as long as it was need it!! DEV’s do have meeting and breafings with Directors and they with CDO,CFO or even CEO and wht not.They should have make A STATMENT! Or we make on be asking for refounds! Im whaiting one more day befor asking my money back…I was scumed, they under deliver and they dont have the guts to get out and say so and how they will fix this!!

PS:Sry for my miss spelings or strang put of words! Im wired this way it seams!

They told you a while ago what to excpect literaly,why ypu didn’t refund then,when they said all was scrapped?

It does deserve it. Because the ratings in metacritic are pointing out the Bugs, crashes, and total dissaster of an online. So yeah, it does deserve it. That’s not a review brigade or a review bombing, because its not getting bad scores just for the heck of it. Its getting in part because it did not deliver what it promised, and because it was delivered in a unstable state.

And if you played blizzard games back in the day, that was not something that used to happen. Hell even witha project as big as wow, the biggest issue people had back then was that the servers got populated way to fast and you had to Q to enter them, but the game itself? Was great and worked great without loading screens, which was surprising for a game that big at that time.

Here, we are talking about a mere remaster that its using the same engine, yes they said they are using the same engine. And still delivered a total disaster.

Name something they promised at Blizzcon 2019 what wasn’t deliver

  • Classic cutscenes with new animation sets and angles
  • Arthas vs Illidan Fight
  • Lost Missions
  • Re-Done WoW Locations
  • Old UI back
  • Editor connected to old maps
  • No huge WoW retcons

They have the same set and angles
Arthas vs Illidan was better in the original, clearly because the models were not polished enough for that fluent animation
Bare minum effort
I quite remember that the UI wasn’t even that much of a big deal, because there wasn’t much of a way they could reinvent it.
The Editor that steals your intelectual property very cool.
Not -huge- yet still expand. Anesterian doesn’t even have a freaking voice line to give you an example, that’s “Perfect” for you? I am the “hater” when your standards are so low?

You know why? Because one day,a moron stole something he made with Editor’s help and made money from it
His name was Icefrog and he basically used Blizzard’s property and use it
Imagine if you’re making money selling something you don’t have right to sell.
Imaging selling Mario Maker levels without any profit for Nintendo
Imagine selling mods without profit for creator of the game

Yeah let me tell you something. That moron created a game, he could have used Warcraft editor, age of empires editor, starcraft editor, the game would have been the same because the CORE CONCEPT was there.

The tools used do not matter, blizzard can claim the map MAYBE, but THE INTELECTUAL PROPPERTY IS A DIFFERENT THING.

That’s the core proof that you have never, EVER, created ANYTHING in your entire life. Let me giveyou an example that’s it not related to videos games.

There is a program that works to help you transcribe music you write called Guitar Pro, Ultimate Guitar owns that software. If they were to go by the logic of Blizzard’s terms, then they would own whatever intelectula property, in this case music, that was written with the help of their tool, because its THEIR tool.
Not even record companies have such a stupid way to operate, and they have been ripping artists off for generations now.

If you love WC3 put in for a refund and show Blizzard they can’t pull this crap and get away with it.

Another thing, because you just expose yourself so easily that im feeling pity for you.
You actually do believe that back in the days of TFT indie gaming companies were a thing like they are nowdays right? That the tools that we have nowdays were as accessible?

That’s what exposes you morons the most, the fact that you don’t know how game changing Warcraft’s map editor was and how it was the most accessible tool people that dreamed to develop their own games had. You think dota was the only game that came out from that?

Alright from the get goyou don’t know the whole story, but Aegis left the dota team in order to carry on to work on a project that ended up being League of Legends, THEN dota 2 came around, because EVEN AFTER league was around, Blizzard could not grasp the potential DOTA had and let the train pass, eventually valve got on that train.

I believe there was also a game in steam that came from the map Warlock

Another game that came out from warcraft 3 editor is The Red Soltice, which in warcraft 3 is known as NOTD Aftermath, and by the way is soon to have a sequel that so far is looking fantastic and im in for the alpha test ;). But of course, a warcraft veteran like yourself would have known that from the get go, right?

If blizzard decided to work WITH them instead of trying to rip their work off, then it would be a whole different story, you would have people delivering content with no stop that blizzard could then develop as a stand alone game, and have that person with the core idea working with them.

Nice idealistic speech but Warcraft died in 2004, it’s not getting better any time soon… it’s only getting worse so long as Blizzard touch it.

I am going to be real here. If the only thing they did, was update the models and animations, added 6 “reforged” cutscenes, improved 8 maps.

I’d be more than satisfied.

But no, the state in which this game released is disappointing. No ladder, no stats. Blizzard (Activision) claiming ownership over map makers work (the same people that are one of the main reasons this game was going strong 17 years after release) is just disrespectful and disgusting.

After 15 years of playing this game I don’t see myself stopping as long as the servers are up. However I have completely lost all trust in Blizzard as a company mainly to their blatant disregard towards the people that kept this game alive, it’s downright shocking and disrespectful.

But he not only created a game,he stole inerface from it,he stole whole character designs from it. He basically create a Warcraft III rip-off.
He used Editor features,character designs and all of that.
It’s like if you were using 3D tool and didn’t pay for using it to make money

You seriously as so moronic to think of Dota 2 as a Rip Off? Do you actually know that Warcraft 3 itself was a full blown rip off another game, right?
And if you do, tell me which.

And no, the designs were changed, the characters were changed. He in fact owned the characters and the stories he created. THe models could have been changed in 1000 different ways but the characters remain the same. You don’t know how intellectual propperty works, and guess the fact what, court agreed with that and blizzard lost the case.
Get over it.

Oh,great,another Warhammer freak…

Look…Dota literally stole anything. Just changed designes a bit,like a chinese rip-offs do. A whole concepts of a character,his look,even his voice line
Do you really think Pudge isn’t an Abomination rip-off? A fat,ugly,giant creature with blood and a giant hook and axe,screaming “FRESH MEAT!”
It’s like Overwatch and Paladins - You can’t tell it’s not a rip-off when the game plays same way,whole character designs are stolen and replaced a bit and all of that

They made a game using WC3’s editor and then the creator of the game wanted to work with Blizzard to make it DotA2. Blizzard laughed at him, so he went to Valve. They didn’t steal anything, he just left with his idea and made a fortune.
