Please apologize to Samwise and bring back the original classic client in some form, preferably with RoC included.

Advertising your Product with something that´s not in the Final Product is called false advertising. And its illegal in many countries for a reason.

Deliver or get sued.

So nothing about the missing custom campaign ? :confused:
And nothing either about the copyright issues ? Modder are boycotting the game in HiveWorkshop. IF they do the game is going to be dead in matter of years. They are the only reason why Warcraft III Lived this long.

What I want to know is were is that “Classic Blizzard” team, group, whatever’s response to this all. Was there ever a team? Is there anything resembling a committee actually tasked with the focus to ensure thee classic Blizzard library remains alive? Is this what we are supposed to expect from it!? Was it planned from the start that literally only 6 actual Blizz employees were to work on this with the rest outsourced out? WAS THERE ANY QA about anything in this? Where was that “when it’s done” flair? I’m not against outsourcing as there are many other game studios that relied on doing so…but really!?

SURRRRRRRRE. That’s why.
Can’t have the option to experience the original tale while in the “classic” mode, then in the “REFORGED” mode have the enhanced features first promised.

Especially with the cinematic bait and switch. “Oh look at this epic redone intro cinematic!” Can’t wait to see the others! …they look like AI powered upscaled versions…maybe literally rendered in higher Rez…

Thanks at least for letting me get my money back!

It is very clear the development team hit budget constraints through development and consequentially made the decision to tone back on the production value to get the game out on budget.

If you really held the original in-game cut scenes in such high regard (hint: no one did, anywhere ever…they were just stick figures talking), you would have also taken out the other areas where you did have cinematic angles and direction, like when Muradin falls.

It’s disingenuous to your fans and still false advertising. We should not have been expected to pick apart a Blizzcon presentation that was technically behind a paywall to see that you as a company decided to ship a game earlier than you should have after making your initial sales pitch to the consumers.

No attempt to address the custom games EULA is a disaster. You can do better then this blizzard! Also remove the report button from custom games for the Xelnaga’s sake! [Not sure what higher powers exist in warcraft to cite here]

BugReport. Localization Issues. Please fix the following asap. Russian localization.
Orcs. Forward to Dev team.
1)Change «Землянка» to «Логово».
2) Change «Рубака» to «Бугай».
3) Change «Батрак» to «Раб».
4) Change «Налётчик» to «Волчий всадник».

True, for me it is the key. Give me ladder back. I don’t care hd graph. I’m playing w3 since 2002. I can live with SD graph.

If that’s the case then why use the enhanced cutscenes for advertising? At least try to come up with an excuse next time.

What you show on your website is what we expected. You guys went ghost for MONTHS AND MONTHS and never updated us on squat. That Blizzcon 2018 video is STILL ON YOUR WEBSITE AS YOU POST THIS!

Ridiculously bad damage control. Change the video on your website, it’s not the truth. Stop lying to your fans. Get your heads on straight and get to righting your wrongs.

Edit: And bring us back the old WC3 client–Ridiculous that you made Classic WC3 obsolete under the GUISE of “cross-play.”

All you had to do was to bring back an already perfect game with updated graphics and just a little magic optimization. In my opinion this is what a remake should be. The game is already there, just fresh it up.
I have no idea about programming or whatsoever, but this cant be hard can it?

I still like to think that Blizzard wont dissappoint us, that you have reached the bottom and will start to be the company you once were.

We’re sooooooory. Ya I bet you are.

Can we please get an official option to download and use the old WC3 client instead of the deforged one?

I don’t want to have 30 gigs of data when I can only use the 2 gigs of data that pertained to the original WC III RoC/TFT games. That’s effectively 28 gigs clogging up my harddrive for no reason.

such a poor excuse for not having 4h of reforged cutscenes. Who did you discuss it with at Last years blizzcon? all you did was show a teaser of arthas vs illaden saying its getting reforged! get excited everyone!!!

Reforged to what? why is the quality of this product over all GARBAGE compared to ANY other blizzard title. What is happening over there? Why did 8.3 WoW/BFA end in such a unfinished way? are you guys about to close shop this year? are finances bad? All the millions of wow subscribers not bringing in enough money? Papa activision sucking too much cash for candy crush? Jesus christ.
