Warcraft 3 reforged but using World of Warcraft Models

Would it be possible to do that? Does that sound like a bad or good idea? Can you imagine a mod doing that? Warcraft 3 reforged, but using World of Warcraft 3d models and textures and graphics?

It sounds like something cool to me. What are your thoughts?

You can mod old engines with modern graphics.

I don’t know how. But I’ve seen it done in old games like duke nukem 3d with forever graphics

But do you think it’s a good or bad idea?

I don’t care for real time strategy… … indifferent

but i’m just saying though.

:stuck_out_tongue:

Come on. Just a little opinion sprinkled on here

:wink:

If you like the game and the graphics have aged considerably remastering it is a fun way to get back into it and give it another playthrough. If you don’t care about the game/style of game it’s not going to do anything for you.

I got D2R just this last week (#sale), haven’t played it since like…2010 or so and the updated graphics/cinematics is great for getting back into a classic. Kind of wish they’d do it for regular Diablo.

That is good. Very good.

I would rather they use a Warcraft III type game to tell a brand new story.

Bad idea. High res models don’t work in RTS. Most people play reforged using the original graphics, including myself.

Too much detail in a massive battle is just too hard for the brain to process and you end up seeing a blur and having no idea what is going on.

I would love some serious and good looking graphic overhaul for wow but they way it was done it warcraft 3 reforged, it made the game not very fluid. I love the details on the models but not at the cost of FPS. Wow is long overdue for more graphic updates. So I say yes but properly implemented.

I think you are mistaken. Look at company of heroes or rome totalwar.

Are we talking today’s models or yesteryear’s Classic models?

Most people can barely log on WoW and fish successfully. You are talking to a breed of people that struggle to function, not actual gamers.

Seriously? Don’t you just click on the button then click on the bobber when it starts shifting under?

Just ask in general chat if anyone’s played (insert top seller on steam currently). They’ll have no idea what it even is.

Most people that play WoW boot up their PC to a desktop that just has Recycle Bin and World of Warcraft.

Yeesh, I mean I don’t got any right to talk. Mainly a console player with Steam on the PC for those games not on consoles.

People made maps with wow models in wc3. But there is the issue that

  1. The wow models aren’t designed for that camera style.
  2. The wow models have a lot more geometry than rts models so they inflate the map size and other unwanted stuff.

And Damianus, I think that would be a cool idea
You’re making excuses. I say it could possibly be easy. What you’re saying makes no sense. Look at the video game “Natural Selection” and others like it. They mix FPS with RTS all the time.
I would like that too. Or at least the option. Lower graphics is good for large battle events like wpvp
