    Shouldnt have new bugs and performance issues in a 10 year old game. Also could have at least left the old game on its own infrastructure instead of breaking something that worked fine.

    Very bad.
    I don't recommend buying it and if you did don't forget to refund as this degenerated version of warcraft 3 shouldn't be allowed to exist or supported in the first place. You can just hope that future patches make it atleast enjoyable for the remaining 100 players.
    I am searching for a private server to play old TFT again as custom maps are anyway blizzards property now and

    Este juego es una jarta de mentiras. Me atrevo a decir que no han implementado nada de lo que prometieron, lo único que han hecho es es retocarlo todo lo mínimo posible para que no sea posible denunciarles y poco mas. Una pena, creo que lo tenían demasiado fácil y le han fallado a su comunidad. Os recomiendo hacer refund a modo de crítica.

Blizz should be ashamed of themselves, but they won't be. They're a massive business completely lacking a moral backbone like all businesses, who just want expanding monetary gain no matter how bad the stuff they crap out is. Hopefully these companies will eventually learn, deceitful practice after deceitful practice, that no studio is too big to fail. Expand

    There are several major features outright removed in Reforged or simply not functioning because it’s in a buggy state including player profiles, ladder system and custom campaigns. The updated EULA also discourages map makers and modders to participate in making content for Reforged. The cutscenes for the most part are undone and severely lacking in the quality Blizzard was once known for.There are several major features outright removed in Reforged or simply not functioning because it’s in a buggy state including player profiles, ladder system and custom campaigns. The updated EULA also discourages map makers and modders to participate in making content for Reforged. The cutscenes for the most part are undone and severely lacking in the quality Blizzard was once known for. The map textures are horrendous compared to the original game, the models are on par with Raid: Shadowlegends, this does not in any way feel like a homage to legendary classic Warcraft 3. Rather it feels like a slap in the face to Warcraft fans.

    If they didn’t ruin the original version of the game by merging the old client with this bug infested one, many people would not be complaining as much or refunding. I wouldn’t be complaining if they didn’t touch the original WC3 client. The issue is that they took out features from the original, released an unfinished product and downgraded classic WC3. Not even Bethesda was foolhardy enough to tamper with the original Skyrim when they released the special edition.

    This is an unmitigated disaster of a game, the developer "update" shows only the incompetency of the dev team leading this project further into the gutter. Rather than adding back basic features, fixing cutscenes and restoring the original client of WC3 they have doubled down on their justification for this mess of a game. I will no longer be supporting Blizzard games due to this disaster, you've ruined the game I enjoyed for most of my childhood. Reflect on what made the original WC3 a 9.2 user score and 92/100 critic score and how you've ended up as the worst rated game in history.

    Goodbye Blizzard, I would say we've had a good run but we obviously haven't.

    -Un prix excessivement cher soit 30€, pour des textures et des skins bas de gamme. -Des cinématiques promises pendant la blizzcon puis enlevées dans la version finale. - Une Interface de raccourcis inexistantes. Il faut aller fouiller dans le fichier

    -Un doigt d'honneur fait aux développeurs avec leur nouvelle politique. En gros faites des mod **** développeurs mais par contre, j'ai tous les droits sur vos œuvres et vous n'avez rien a dire ni a réclamer...
    En conclusion, c'est un boycott total de actipognon-blizzard, que je vais faire à partir de maintenant.
    PS : Ma nostalgie me poussait à mettre 1 en note, mais c'est cette dernière qui m'a également poussée a dépenser 30€. Je ne vais pas faire la même erreur. La note 0 est plus proche du réel.

You can't even see the old menus anymore.

    You've taken a great game from 2002, gave it a superficial model-update, and took a big wet-fart all over the player-base. You've transformed a classic game into a buggy mess 18 years after it came out, and now you ask me to pay MORE MONEY FOR IT? Disgraceful!

    This is unprecedented. You have defiled a nearly 2 decade old game that I used to cherish just for money. I doubt the real creators of Warcraft 3 even work at your company anymore. You're a bunch of morally-bankrupt grave-robbers.

    The players are clearly the only people who truly valued this game. HOW ABOUT YOU STOP HOLDING MY WARCRAFT 3 HOSTAGE? WHY CAN'T YOU GIVE IT BACK?!

    You can go ahead and make terrible new titles and remasters that I won't pay for, but ruining classics made by the real Blizzard? You've crossed the line bud.

    Total scam! I remember a time when games were made with pride and could be considered art. then the money-men come in and destroy the industry.

    pro tip; do not pre-order anything.

    im guessing blizzard is understaffed to make "more" money ending up killing their company for quick cash.

    All lies.
    I'm never trusting Blizzard again or pre-ordering any of their future games. Reforged is a joke, is a lie, is a disrespect to all the Warcraft community.
    Now if u wanna play the old Warcraft 3 from 17 years ago, u're forced to install 30Gb of useless data because you need Reforged content to play the old game. And even then, the old game is no longer the game u used to play

    I still can't believe this happened. Did the release of Reforged really just killed the legacy game and everything it stood for? Comptetive ladder games, fun custom games and a huge modding community - these three things are what kept warcraft 3 alive for 17 years. This game was an active breathing animal and acitivision blizzard basically cut off 3 of it's limbs and rip it's dick off. II still can't believe this happened.

What they got instead is beeing discredited for all their hard work and for all the love they showed to the game.

    The end of match summary is completely butchered and doesn't tell you useful info, the old client is gone, even if you don't own reforged you're forced into replacing it if you ever connect to bnet, custom maps now have a report button so blizzard can ban maps and ban people hosting them and finally, remember that this was delayed before release

    I am genuinely happy for the very, very, very few people that have managed to find something enjoyable about this travesty, but Reforged is a genuine insult to everyone who has ever played a video game- the ABSOLUTE least Activision (not Blizz, as they have proven they don't exist as anything beyond a corporate tag) deserves in return is a slightly mean review.
    I was able to get my refund by promising legal repercussions, so that might work for you as well. If it doesn't, then whenever the inevitable class-action lawsuit pops up, you'll be able to join with visible evidence.

    I can't find any words at all, the game is a pure disappointment.

The cheekiest thing is that blizzard still advertises with videos and content from the website, but this content is not in the game at all!!! Blizzard managed to make the new game a lot worse than the original one (beside the new 3D models, but this alone does not elp you out of this situation). 30francs?

    Because the case deserved my review. I just want to say that I have been waiting so much to play again warcraft III with frozen throne, one of my childhood games, in a quality that deserves a 2020 game, and this is really disappointing and heartbreaking. Blizzard, you were in the past the envy of all

    “This entire department must be purged.”

    It’s clear that Blizzard’s 2018 layoffs to “non-development roles” has and will continue to have ramifications for years to come. Putting feature development over quality assurance leads to neither features nor quality, and this absolute disaster of a product is both a testament to that fact and a tangible monument to J. Allen Brack’s hubris.

    Blizzard has addressed some of the complaints and criticism hurled its way, and has promised to work on many of these issues. Naturally, one must ask why the game was released in such a state, especially considering the negative attention the company has garnered over the past year with the reveal of Diablo Immortal and the Blizzard/China controversy.

    In the end it’s worth noting that when viewing a remake or remaster what needs to be taken into consideration is the source material, how it looks, feels, and plays. That is, in addition to the work carried out to recreate moments, update visuals, and change any of the presentation. To do otherwise would be silly, a terrible game with a wonderful remaster doesn’t warrant a high score. In the case of Warcraft III, the inverse to that is also true. So, what we end up with is something in-between. A classic reborn, in a package that doesn’t warrant all that much in the way of celebration.

    If you set your expectations a little lower, then Warcraft 3: Reforged is a game worth of your time and money. Sadly, for many of us out there, we were expecting a little more.
