No, they never actually thought about it. It's that Human are Western-looking, Undead are African (the human one at least,) and Night Elves are something relatively un-asian. It only make sense to put some Samurai in the Orc.

In WC3 it was explained that they were remnants of the Burning Blade. Apparently when they became influenced by demonic power they became possessed warriors that were so bloodthirsty they destroyed their own clan with in-fighting. The few that survived were some of the greatest warriors in history.

Warcraft IV could potentially be the most hype game is years.

Think about it, the game would instantly be interesting to the WoW crowd, old-WC3 players, Starcraft players, MOBAfags and E-sportsfags in general. That ON TOP of the usual Blizzard game hype.

Shit would be fucking unreal.

Fuck yes. My high school glory years were spent playing WC3 at LAN parties with my bros instead of, well, slaying pussy like the rest of my grade.

Now we're all grown up and got no time to enjoy such luxuries. LoL was supposed to help us ease into adulthood, we could at least play together from home, but it never really kicked off.

At least we've put in the effort recently to try make weekly gatherings a thing. Even if it's not always to play WC3 custom maps. Also btw apparently it's the 14th anniversary today of WC3!

SC2's problem wasn't just that casuals don't like RTS games, it's that SC2's gameplay was horribly inferior to its predecessor.

All the cool micro from SC1 was completely removed in favor of mostly A+M1 gameplay and bloating up the game with terrible Macro mechanics that turned everything into a shitty timing push.

There's also the fact that Blizzard REFUSED to give tips about the gameplay to anyone that asked because they were afraid of showing players "strategies", apparently due to how shallow the game was, and they also REFUSED to balanced the game properly due to not wanting to disrupt competitive play.

>>343639763

Well, the most sensible way for the upgrade would be to port it to the SC2/HotS engine.

On the downside, converting some assets and game structures could be a PITA, and the engine would require some changes to accommodate WC3 features (like more cliff levels).

On the upside, you get all the SC2 / HotS technical features, hardware and software compatibility, and you don't have to maintain the archaic codebase of WC3. And of course, Galaxy editor for WC3.

I'm just worried that they couldn't stand not to fuck with the content and shit on the legacy of WC3.

I think part of the point way back then was that Orcs came from their own world, so some of them being Japs while Night Elves were also Asian-influenced made sense, as they were from separate worlds.

WC2 is pretty fun.
If you could play Broodwar you'll be able to play it, if you're a casual scumbag that can't play either then just go straight into WC3.
Most of the story is retconned anyway.

The project was axed due feedback from their target group (Warcraft fanbase then) Bluntly told that cartoonish look wasn't grimdark and gritty enough. Blizzard was small company back then so of course, they yielded and complied to their userbase unlike now. The level of quality was more or less the outry from their fans then (People who voted for the game were a vast minority).

Warcraft Orcs vs Humans is not very easy to play, tedious to group units, no control groups, only 4 units per group.

Warcraft 2 is a bit smoother.
No control groups unless you get a later edition like Battlechest edition, then you have control groups and it's a smooth experience.
I edited the cpu cycles to get rid of the blitzkrieg map scrolling.

I suggest playing one of the warcraft 2 campaigns to get a sense of the setting before jumping into Warcraft 3.

Arthas can go and solo all of the side stuff if he has divine shield without a problem, while the rest of the food cap is used for defending the base.

Divine shield makes that mission very straight forward on hard.

Orcs and Humans is one of the first real RTS games. As such, a lot of later things that made the games so much better and easier to play aren't there. Ex: tiny groups of units, both races are essentially the same, etc.

It was great, a decade and a half ago when it was innovative. Warcraft 2 still holds up as a good game even now.
>>

It was one of the few missions that I had to restart twice on hard.
In fact, I think it's the only mission outside of TFT.
Defending missions in general are always boring as fuck.

What a strange gameplay and genre evolution Warcraft 3 brought us. The hero units the combat centered around brought fresh wind into the usual RTS genre. Blizzard even had it's own map where you explore a city with a bunch of non-race bound heroes. You could make your own as well, including skills.

Then along came Dota. Dota Dota. Based off on a Starcraft map that used the old form of Blizzards hero units, basically beefier and stronger standard units, it used the new system to its fullest. Spawning an entire genre that really can piss off.

Do the last waves come with Frostwyrms on normal as well? I remember seeing them in the mission, but don't know which difficulty that was.
>>
>>343668507
I don't even remember if they send those on hard, but I'm sure as hell they don't on normal.
I don't think you even need to build towers to complete the mission on normal, the game in general is very easy with a tiny bit of RTS experience.

Not so sure about not building towers. But so far the undead waves were disappointing.

I guess 2 guard towers and 3 canon towers at every entrance, a platoon of patrolling footmen, two priests for healing, and 4 peasant auto repairing and also patrolling do a pretty good job on top of the initial squad and Arthas.

I just started replaying this game the other day. Gives me something to do casually in between Overwatch matches. Came to /v/ on a whim and there's actually a fucking thread about it. I'm happy this game is still so universally loved, because it's one of my all time favourites.

Yeah there was another version where Legolas was so broken after a certain level you could hold down the west side wall with just him and all his archers even after they blew a hole in it. All four opponents could rush you and still lose.

Khadgar also used the skull to destroy the portal in beyond the dark portal.

>He did but it might not be his actual skull because there's no real evidence of his death.
Well, that's if you don't count the WC2 mission in which you directly kill him in-game, and the WC3 manual retconning it but stating he's dead anyway.
