Lies.It took 10 minutes for the last custom game i played to load!Once it was finished loading,there were no players left cause everybody left (end task)
Sound is terrible,textures are bugged.

Wtf ?

I meant that they will fix it. Geez, you kids! If you can’t handle day 1 bugs in games, don’t play them!

@CmaJIuH-2638

oh rly? so why realese game still looks like beta?

What games have you played lately? New games I mean, which were BUG FREE on the release day!

[KABAL-2960]

@LuckyPants-1155240

The game is literally unplayable.

Literally?! Then how this twitch streams are playing AS we speak with no problem? How is this LITERALLY?!

[anon17688411]

Old player to new players
Please understand. I didn’t asked for “Reforged”. Yesterday i lost my all accounts, all friends lists, clans, my old favorite game.
Problem not about how good/bad reforged is, but how they forced me (old players) to download this game.

[KABAL-2960]

THIS is a very solid concern which I agree with it. Something must be done in this situation.

[IN7I-21545]

Don’t call people kids,man.I would say most of the WC3 fans are grown ups 30+ years old.You insult our intelligence with your tunnel vision fanboy attitude.

[KABAL-2960]

Are you a bot?

[Toaster-1403]

We as consumers got screwed over by Blizzard and all you can say is the community is toxic? Are you listening to yourself right now?

[chords-2809]

Ther were even more things promised. So I named a few.

[LuckyPants-1155240]

Or maybe Kabal is a paid troll, trying to bury legitimate complaints with whitewash.
If he is thought thats just more evidence that blizzard doesnt know how to take care of its community. Maybe blizzard is partly responsible for the apparent and supposed toxic community on bnet.

Anyways, so tired of this company letting me down. Just going to get my refund and play classic wc3 on gameranger.

[IN7I-21545]

The guy is an apologist,people like him will take absolutely anything blizzard tries to shove down their throats.

I recommend to read this:

@Bakker-2835

Hello. I’ve been playing Warcraft 3 since 2004. I see a lot of people complaining about new graphics looking bad, lack of content, unfulfilled promises, post-launch bugs/crashes. However, I do not care about new graphics, campaigns, cinematics or Reforged as a whole. I just want to keep playing the game I played my entire life, the game that was already perfect for me.
But that is no longer possible. With the latest update, the old classic client is gone, it forces you to download the new Reforged client and play it using classic graphics, which cuts a lot of features that existed in previous versions.

Features that were available yesterday and have been cut 12 hours ago:

• Cross-region play (the custom game list is no longer global and you can’t play with players from other realms, meaning it’s much harder to find players and fill game lobbies)
• Custom campaigns
• Clans
• Player profiles
• Ladder (ranked matchmaking, stats, automated tournaments)
• Good, [battle.net](http://battle.net) 1.0 chat system (you can no longer use commands such as /f l, /join; information on how many players are currently playing; list of communal channels; [battle.net](http://battle.net) news section; overall the chat system lost its’ soul)
• Beautiful UI/menus (in reforged client the menus feel sluggish and less optimised; the chat box overlaps the menus, atmospheric 3D campaign backgrounds are gone, etc.)
• Creative freedom in custom games (the WE EULA has been changed, adding a lot of limitations - everything you create now fully belongs to Blizzard, read more in other topics; censorship in maps and game names, for example a lobby called “booty bay” can not be hosted, even though it’s the name of an offical WC3 map, etc.)
• Classic graphics in Reforged client look worse (shadows are missing, saturation is off, some spells/effects are missing)
• RoC campaign is now using TFT balancing

Features that were available before 2018 and have been cut during the latest updates:

• Arranged teams
• Reconnection via GProxy
• Overall game stability (desyncs or crashes would almost never happen, now custom games are plagued with both)
  Bot features (only going to list some of them):
• Online lobby list and in-game chat, available from a browser (what games are hosted right now, how many players are in a lobby, etc.)
• Competitive custom games (auto-balance and matchmaking based on ELO or empirical algorithms specialized for each custom map)
• Ability to kick/ban trolls (after the removal of bots they added the ban functionality, but you would have to re-ban the person every session)
• Better ping/latency
• Protection against hacks and maphacks
• Anti-spam protection
• Automatic replay saving and archiving with easy search from a website
• Game/replay archive
• Probably many more things that I can’t recall at this moment

I know this wall of text is not going to achieve anything, this is more for myself - I had to get it off my chest and let people know what ActivisionBlizzard has truly done to our game.
I just want to play the game I love.

Maybe you didn’t run into any issues? Here is my thread on playing my favorite video game series. If you watch the video, you see that I run into issues left and right. I started off wanting to love the game but ended up disappointed: Launch Day Gameplay Video Showcasing Bugs and Errors

[KABAL-2960]

Thats lots of text which basically is saying (almost) nothing.

This is more or less, nostalgia at this point, because that features are still available in a form or another.

People please, stop copy/paste things which you have no idea about because they …look cool.

[anon17688411]

Nostalgia? I lost all my accounts, friendlist, clans (i now recovered only around 10% contacts) Tell me how it’s good for me

[KABAL-2960]

That is a legit thing, but wasn’t your post about W3 Classic features vs Reforged and not about the fact that people lost their old W3 game including friendlist, etc?

[anon17688411]

I don’t care about new game. Just be happy if u like it, but don’t force me to download the new one. I hate it. I just want to play my $##@ game

…and again, i though your post is Classic vs Reforged features and not the fact that you lost your old game. THIS, as I already said, is a valid reason to be angry at, but comparing old features with new ones, which mostly, are the same in a form or another it … kinda sucks.
