[PC] Heroes of Might & Magic V

You’ll be able to adjust graphics to the performance of your machine, but you should have 128 MB video ram and 512 MB memory plus a 2 Ghz processor at least – which is a high price to pay for the grafical abundance which is doubtlessly there. What that means is, the game won’t run on most notebooks older than a year, which is a pity. It has to be said that the graphics look awesome, but that not each and every kind of player will be happy with it. In multiplayer I expect that the 3d-view will on average lengthen the turns because it’s obviously much more complicated to work in a full 3d-environment than in 2d.

However, there will be a Duel Mode for those who just want to battle it out, in which players can fight against each other with preset heroes and armies. In multiplayer there is a ghost mode allowing a special kind of play for players who’d have to wait otherwise. There will be a map editor, probably not in the initial release, but if not, than as a download (before the addon). There will be six campaigns with five maps each that will actually tell one big story. There won’t be an overabundance of standalone maps in the first release, but more will be made available later as a download, since part of the maps couldn’t get properly playtested before the release date.

Since I not only was Beta tester, but still am the German translator of the game, I did see more than just the demo or preview version – in fact I’ve seen and played the complete product and therefore the whole campaign. The story is great. The first three campaign maps are tutorial maps, mainly, and should be a cakewalk for Homm veterans, but then it gets immersive. And should you feel excited now, reading this, and having asked yourself, will the game be worth it, relax: the game rocks. I mean, it ROCKS. HoMM V is CLEARLY the best Heroes game ever.

The new game's tactical battles take place on a 3D grid that vaguely resembles a chessboard, but as we've mentioned in our earlier coverage, Nival and Ubisoft have tweaked combat in a number of ways. For instance, combat is now preceded by a tactics mode that lets you prearrange your units within a limited area, similar to the tactics skill from Heroes III. In addition, the interface has been tweaked, so you can either view a row of icons along the bottom of the screen that indicates which creature will act next or an archive of messages that keeps track of which army attacked which, how much damage was dealt, and what special effects are in play.
