looks awesome. At least the special effects would be very useful for sure. The rest i dont like THAT much.
 
As you can see at the screenies, the game was first much more hero oriented, nad the terrain looks much more...changing, then in hte finalized version for example...

Anyways, we'll be presenting this to Blizz once we get enough sigs, so get your friends to get their friends to sign too ;)
 
i like how the old undead buildings actually have the nerubian style, like stated in the undead lore. OoOooOh at the night elf owl rider
 
Yeah, in the old version, the Moon Priestes could actually mount one of those...
Later they canged it to hippogriphs, and then removed it altogether...
 
I like the old UI except for the health bars. The Undead buildings looked kick-ass :p

WALLS!!! they actually had walls... unless they're doodads

The portraits look really messed up on most of em

And the buildings look more... Childish :p Some are really cool though (the human tower and others)

Humans had a battering ram...
 
mmhmmm Very nice, a few things that hit the spot..

http://www.scrollsoflore.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=39&pos=5 - Notice the doodads in the background?

http://www.scrollsoflore.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=39&pos=7 - For some reason, the unit models look VERY detailed to me compared to what we have.

http://www.scrollsoflore.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=39&pos=9 - Very nice trees..

http://www.scrollsoflore.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=39&pos=14 - Paladin and lightning very sexy..

http://www.scrollsoflore.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=39&pos=20 - Do you see that lich in the back? OMFG

http://www.scrollsoflore.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=39&pos=33 - wtf nuke?

http://www.scrollsoflore.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=39&pos=38 - Lol.. "Barrens, Crossroads".

Plus, the buildings are very intresting.. specially the orc ones.
 
So what kind of crap did they end up selling us?!

I hope they don't plan to use thsoe models for "WC4"...

BlizzOwner: Hey! Don't use the good models! We will sell them as new in a few years!
BlizzModeler: So should I use the models that were supposed to be in wc2 like last time? o_O
 
I never got why Blizzard didn't go with the original concept. (Or the second.) But one thing I know is that I would love to of played those versions.
 
> I hope they don't plan to use thsoe models for "WC4"...
I hope they do. That means we'll actually be getting WC4! :D

> why Blizzard didn't go with the original concept.
This one was better.
Two things you should have in mind
-these things are promotional, they took the best of the best and published it, you should see Wc3 promotion stuff
-you want what you don't have obviously, if you had these models instead of the current stuff you would probably compain how awesome the vampire-dreadlords look like

Also...Blizzard, sadly, doesn't care about petitions.
One of the most notable, porting WoW to Linux, received plenty of signatures IIRC, but WoW still doesn't have a Linux version to this date.
 
>Also, oninuva, the reason why is because the units are scaled down, so it kind of increases the resolution.

True, imagine playing footmen wars with those models....

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
