Warcraft 3

Post by lynxbat »

Wow....pretty nice. The graphics aren't anything to write home about but the gameplay is really nice. The depth of the game though is amazing! I am only barely into the the campaign and I am very intrigued. Really captures my interest. Once Liquidation gets it for his comp. then I will get to unleash my orc hordes upon him...hehe <p><embed src="http://www.nickandsarah.com/tag.swf" quality=high pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/dow ... kwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="150"> </embed> </p><i></i>

Well it is not in stores yet.....but I have my sources..<br><br>here is a harmless link to an information site<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.isonews.com">www.isonews.com</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>all they report is what is out there........<br><br>oh and it runs great on my comp, which is nothing special...it is much harder to master than the first 2. I feel swamped everytime I play it. But then again I am more of a FPS than a strat person. I don't like to micro manage...makes me irritable<br><br>and I am really just waiting to buy it....so I can play it on Battlenet<br><br>EDIT* Fixed by me to make the linky workee. -SH <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><embed src="http://www.nickandsarah.com/tag.swf" quality=high pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/dow ... kwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="150"> </embed> </p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub3.ezboard.com/uspinninghat.sh ...

Having played the beta and a friend magically has a copy, it's high quality baby. They really do a good job in keeping the feel of Warcraft 2 while updating the graphics and gameplay. It is indeed a much harder game to master than Warcraft or Starcraft and the whole added element of heroes changes everything. The most innovative thing I've seen is the ability to use unit special abilities in a mixed group without deselecting the others in the unit (ex: 5 orc grunts, 2 trolls, and a warlock, you can cast the warlock's spells while still selecting the grunts and trolls) Enable/disableing autocasting of certain spells is great too.<br><br>The Necromancer thoroughly sums up my opinions on the game: "I love the undead... frequently" <p><img src="http://www.rit.edu/~mbt1074/Angel%20Sig ...

The friend was actually accepted for the beta and recieved the CD and already has his hands on the full version. He visits a site called binnews.com that reports all the games and such out there, but nothing more than that... <p><img src="http://www.rit.edu/~mbt1074/Angel%20Sig ...

$75 is the special edition one. It comes with some extra stuff that requires reading. The regular one is still like $55-$60 <p><img src="http://www.rit.edu/~mbt1074/Angel%20Sig ...

No one showed me how to get my hands on a *cough* special edition.
