    30 euros por un pastiche con modelos genéricos de juego android asiático, animaciones robóticas de 1999 , texturas recicladas del original y un montón de bugs . Para mas inri han desactivado el juego original, han cerrado battlenet 1.0 , eliminado salas de chat, soporte para clanes y encontrar partida es poco menos que un milagro.

    Blizzard, tu antes molabas.

    I used to love Warcraft 3 back in the day, but having like 3 improvements (better graphics and updated sound and the new Battle.net infrastructure, although this is in more than 10 ways a bad thing but I'll let it slide as a positive) and SO MANY NEGATIVES that it's unbearable and then not even being able to get a refund for this just goes to show how low this company has sunken.

    What a debacle. The only word to describe what I'm feeling right now is "violated". The Chinese overlords that have taken over Blizzard have raped my childhood memories of this fantastic game, and then had the gull to demand 30 USD for this piece of crap. I hope all of the greedy empty suits involved in this die in a fire.

    The Right force players to adapt to new changes that is completely useless and distant from the original game, it was a dumb move as the new addition is only little or hard to notice, such as visual which you need to zoom over 100% to see.

    Campaign and some Matches with Bots are broken, because they merged the Changes from Frozen Throne into Reign of Chaos (there was a reason, they had two separate clients).

    Now that it is impossible to play the pre "reforged" classic WC3, i give it a Score of Zero.
    Otherwise it would be a 4.

Glad I refunded before it came out because I had a feeling things would be ugly but not that bad. Blizzard needs to get back on its feet and quick if they ever want to recover from this mess. I used to play a huge lot of your games, but this had me uninstall your launcher and cancel my subscription to WoW because I fear for Shadowlands.

    Ну а какого черта я должен платить за игру 1.3-2.5к рублей, в которой, оказывается, ничего делать и не будут (а за 2.5к рублей тебе отсыпят просто на пару скинов больше - ну это вообще охереть, зачем мне плюхи в других играх, если я хочу варкрафт? Странный подход к сбору бабок, конечно)? Помимо этого перенесут дату релиза, оптимизацию подвезут посредственную, так еще и вместо старого клиента на 1.5 гига я буду вынужден качать 25 гигов файлов с 228к текстурками (которые так-то даром не упали), это не считая еще более худшей(>более худшая) карты путей для юнитов, чем в оригинальном варике (а они и так достаточно плоха, не уровня того же СК2).
    Оценка даже не самой игре, ей можно и 3-4 балла поставить, за недоработки по графике, которую так и не допилили к ПЕРЕНЕСЕННОМУ релизу (ну тени-свет, некоторые графические баги со зданиями), за то, что игра по-разному ощущается на классической и новой графике (ну это вкусовщина), меню, которое жрет больше самой игры (иначе не ясно чому оно лагает больше, чем сама игра), мелкие фризы при сносе/заказе зданий/случайных действиях на карте, проблема с пингом и общий сервер для всех игроков, хотя в бнете есть возможность выбрать сервер (не нулевой шанс попасть против корейца-американца и играть на пинге 400+). Оценка близзам - народ не должен есть такой контент за 20 баксов, черт с ним с обещаниями, которые отменялись на закрытых презах, но в игре на релизе нет даже статы (я не про ладдер, хрен с ним и с турнирами автоматическими), нет красивых задников кампаний, как в оригинале, вместо них просто анимированные пикчи, которые каждый день можно заценить на кубах с аниме девочками под задравший трек (ну вы понимаете о чем я, иногда в этих кубах еще рикардо появляется).
    Написал 2 февраля отзыв, теперь (12) дополню - они не завезли даже сервера под это говно, большую часть игр приходится играть на пинге 250-500, это не говоря про ВНЕЗАПНЫЕ десинки 3х из 4х человек в команде в играх 4х4 (возможно и в других режимах, но пока не встречал, только в 4-4).
    В общем все, не покупайте, лучше купите чего-нибудь вкусного на эти деньги.

    3) Если с выделеным юнитом просто водить мышкой по миникарте будет перманентно звучать фраза этого юнита
    4) Эффекты вроде горящих зданий находящиеся в тумане войны устраивают стробоскоп из пламени, пожалуй, эпичнее чем на Курской дуге.
    5) После загрузки игры сбрасываются вейпоинты из зданий

    Textures are bad, models are bad, animations are bad, everything is dead bad. the only good point is the money they get to stay alive a bit longer.

    And above all Warcraft III has had a substantial modding scene, and custom games are an important part of the game's infrastructure. Now, Blizzard is looking to retain rights to anything created within Warcraft III: Reforged.

This is the Fyre festival of remasters, and this quote should be added in the back of your physical release (if you ever do one). Stay away from this game.

    Unfortunately, I have to admit that I am very disappointed with the launch as a person who saw the trailer from Blizzcon and went to buy it on pre-order at the same time, but it's being impossible to play most custom games due to bugs in visuals and text, sometimes players get disconnected even on the loading screen, and for huge fps drops on any mode. I hope Blizzard address this soon.

    Not only did Blizzard straight up lie about what Reforged was going to bring, but they also forced this broken mess onto the original WC3 by force-updating it, which makes it impossible to play the original, unbroken WC3.

    They literally destroyed my favorite game. They took a 18-year-old game, lit it on fire, then sold it for 30 dollars. Never buying a blizzard game again.... What a shame what this company has become

    Game was falsely advertised with far more features broken or stripped away than added. Furthermore, their policy regarding modding is soulless and disgusting. I made an exception to my rule against pre-ordering because I was such a fan of the Warcraft series. I will never make that mistake again. Time to get a refund.

    So broken. I can't even get to main start menu. Just a black screen with a mouse cursor. Messaged bug team at Blizzard and they have no idea what's going on (many people are complaining about this issue). The beta worked on my PC so why not the final game? I paid for a finished game, not a black screen!

    Had it been just a **** re-release, I would have given it a 3-4. But this **** re-release of, mind you, a 17 year old game also completely destroyed the classic game by forcing the removal of "features" into the old client. You can NOT play the old Warcraft 3 anymore without pirating it.

    And they managed to NOT include The Frozen Throne DLC in this release, but expect you to pay 40

    And they managed to NOT include The Frozen Throne DLC in this release, but expect you to pay 40 bucks. Let me ask, 40 bucks, for what? What do YOU gain out of it? There's not a SINGLE good answer. This new release REMOVED things rather than ADD some. It's utterly disgusting and shameless. I don't even have hopes for Reforged, I just want Blizzard to revert what they did to classic.

    If I have to point out 2 key details that really stood out in reforged and that were a such a turn-off I couldn't play the game for long:
    1) The character animations being locked at 20 fps. When the rest of the game runs at 144hz, it's such an eyesore it's unforgivable.
    2) While they redubbed some of the voice lines (good on them), sound effects weren't improved at all. It really makes them stand out even worse when the voice acting sounds modern and decent, but the sound effects are the same as it was back in 2002 and the audio is compressed.

    Both of those issues are completely noticeable in 20 seconds of playing the first mission of the campaign. How did this go through testing? What the heck happened blizzard?

    in the year to make such applications for such a schedule and for such hopes, the Editor was most offended expecting a lot as it is the most important thing in the game, but there’s nothing there 5% new is no more horrible shame I will not cancel the purchase but the developers should be ashamed to wash their eyes and include music that is missing and with the picture we were deceived and I can’t say anything more how we were deceived and now the cards that we make now are Blizzard authors without our millet and permission to delete or pick up our card for ourselves is this normal? The campaign of Dota 2 is in their heart that they didn’t hold such a day in the tournament Ti 9 (If that is the main tournament of the year in Dote 2, if anyone didn’t know there are any).

    Where do I even start with this steaming pile of trash? From the beginning I suppose...

    In 2002 and 2003, Blizzard Entertainment released one of the greatest RTS's and greatest games ever made: Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos and Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne. This game revolutionized and standardized RTS games, had an amazing matchmaking system, a kick-ass campaign, an amazing custom game modding community, charming graphics, great voice acting, and a pleasing soundtrack. These two masterpieces launched the MOBA games DOTA and League of Legends, among others. The interest in these games was so massive that it spawned and continued the lore with World of Warcraft, which was and still is the most successfully MMORPG of all time. Warcraft 3 continued to have a tight-knit passionate fanbase of players to this day who would play 1v1s and team games or replay the campaign every year, just because it was that good of a story and so nostalgic.

    So what went wrong? Well, Blizzard had 18 years to remaster this game or to create Warcraft 4, which is what fans really wanted. It seems they were a victim of their own success, in that World of Warcraft was such a cash cow that they continued milking it until it was a withered husk of a game (See: Battle for Azeroth). They only began development of Warcraft 3: Reforged 2 years ago (allegedly) and released it 1 month behind schedule. And for what we got out of this game, it's embarrassing

    Blizzard (now Blizzard-Activision, HUGE difference) claims that this game has:
    -Visuals rebuilt from the ground up
    -Over 4 hours of reforged cutscenes
    -Limitless custom games to explore
    -Updated UI and rebalanced gameplay
    -Modern Blizzard Battle.net features

    What we got was:
    -Visuals that look like they were created by overworked interns from 2010 in some foreign development company in India
    -No reforged cutscenes, only the exact same cutscenes with "updated" graphics
    -Custom games that are legally owned by Blizzard
    -The same exact UI from 2002 and a few MINOR changes to gameplay with no new units, no new heroes, no new buildings, no new maps
    -Battle.net 2.0, which takes away profile stats, animated profile pictures, online connectivity, clans, player community, and a lot more things that other reviewers have detailed much better than I can

    Bonus "features":
    -Incredibly amount of lag, even on high-end system, even in 1v1 custom matches against a bot
    -No new campaigns
    -No new cutscenes
    -No new music
    -No new voice actors (would love to have the option to choose between old and new voice actors)
    -COMPLETE lack of polish - for god's sake the multiplayer chat doesn't even scroll down automatically when a new message is received
    -"updated" graphics that somehow look worse than the original and lack its charm. Either go with the charm of the old art style or update it completely to WoW style, don't do some half-ass attempt to merge the two

    Overall, this "game" was an attempt to cash in on people who have a love and huge amount of nostalgia for the old games. It was the absolute laziest attempt I have ever seen to "remaster" a game that I have ever seen in my 29 years of life and Blizzard and the people who worked on this should be absolutely ashamed. Not only did they not make remaster the game in an acceptable way, they completely destroyed the old game by not allowing normal Warcraft 3 players (the old game) to log into old Battle.net and use the features from that.

    So bravo, Blizzard (really Blizzard-Activision as Blizzard doesn't exist anymore). You managed to not only make a bad game, but to completely butcher and destroy the original. This was literally worse than the finale of Game of Thrones. Thanks for destroying the last bit of goodwill you had with the community of players you amassed making the actual good games of the 2000s and 90s. Adieu, Blizzard.

    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.
