[lordmaxim]

hey did you guys fix teh forge issue?

[Sleaker]

mm just some of my opinions/observations:

I like the new skill system.

I don't like the new hero selection, and the fact that I'm required to buy my new heros.

Map is entirely too large, while it might have been nice in HaE1 to have a large map, I feel that it kills the game. It makes the game really slow and feel like you're just watching your hero run around all over the map..

Empires seem really lame right now. While they are simpler they don't have that fun appeal anymore, I don't have to deal with pop management, multiple resources etc, and the roads are annoyingly large, not to mention invisible.

Builer Hero I like how the builder gather resources, but there aren't enough options for him. The tower is cool, but other than that I feel the builder is quite worthless. The amount of time it takes to gather res is fairly frustrating, esp since you can't buy them anymore.

Just my thoughts..

mm just some of my opinions/observations:

I agree about the new hero selection, having 2 pathways forces heros to be similiar since if you go the path of a wizard your gonna end up a mana shield wizard and healing isnt necessary unless for others the possibilty to train one class of hero permanently would be better, you could then even train into a king/emperor for empire and merc captain but at the moment everyone will play the same if you get the last str hero you just make sure you have full vamp, crit, evasion as soon as you get him your attack speed goes through the roof and your the haxxor. the old style was better

I disagree about the map being too large, if it was smaller it would be too easy to get to quests making the game much easier, its easy enough, i still havent finished hae but i just finished hae2 on very strong, single player, if you dont like running buy a teleport rod and use your allies units and structures to get around. the towns could have portals to each other and they charge you x10 your level in silver to use them but i think its already fine.

I did just play with the new empire, i won but it was easy? i dunno i like it but you really cant compare it to the hae1 empire they are too different, i think food should come back in, even if the building is small just having it makes it seem like theres more micromanagement to be done. I LOVE the fact that trees dont die. After i set up my walls and towers i did nothing i just sat there researching because i didnt have to do a thing with my stuff leveling on its own. I agree with the roads even if the houses stay 2x2 the roads could still be 1x1 (or make them both 1x1 and 1/4 all of the houses stats(hp,citizens,cost,research benefits) they are ugly the town isnt as pleasing anymore its so big and fat. Its really hard to compare the 2 systems they are so different but i would have to say i prefer number 1, the empire in 2 is too easy its more like a childrens sim

i didnt touch the builder since i saw it costs like 20 resources to upgrade damage by 4 i know if i wander around in the time it takes to mine 20 i can get a level and stack my damage much faster

This being said im so thoroughly addicted :]
love the map

[FinalLegacy]

what forge issue?...

anyway

you dont have to buy a new hero, u can also just stay that one but itll make alot of difference in late game
more heroes will probably be added in later versions though.

yup an epic sized map; this may not seem fun due to long walks but creep spawn spots are actually closer to eachother (also way more advanced workout on creepspots in case you didnt notice).
this means the increased map size does not affect any long walks (maybe the removed teleport does?), but more room for exping on pvp games and more freedom in choosing ur exp zone.

ive heard empires arent what they used to be. this will be better in later versions since we're going to revamp that (again).

dont have enough experience to decide anything to do with hero builder, ill get back on that later

thanks for commenting these things sleaker, and thanks for giving your opinion about em too, mugsy.
enjoy the game, dont forget hae2 is still on alpha; there's alot of unfinished work.

[mugsy]

eh i changed my mind i prefer the empire in number 2, i just played hae8.8b and it took me like 2 hours to get to the last age, but it was just boring heh, like i couldnt attack the fortress until the last tech level since the men arent good enough, i much prefer number 2 it seems quicker, plus unit levels and tower levels make it more user friendly, i do like the upgrade system as well. just dont like lack of difficulty keeping people, like no food/rations, fires and large buildings but i decided i wont play hae again just number 2, i like the way the boss's work.
