    Отвратительная оптимизация, лживая рекламная компания, сломанный визуальный стиль оригинала, сломанный мультиплеер и кастомные карты. Это просто позор.

    Я люблю WARCRAFT III не за компанию, а за многопользовательскую составляющею, мне почти без разницы на кат.сцены и сюжет. Но конкретно в этой игре мне не понравился движёк, он не подходит для этой игры. Юниты и здания сливаются, но всех больше меня бесит ландшафт (деревья, камни, земля, трава и т.д.), это какая то халтура, они убогие, убогая и физика всего мира.

    Even aside from possible false sales issues, the quality of this game still fails
    Even aside from the question of game content (whether the battle has been upgraded in all directions), this quality is really hard to believe that it is produced by Blizzard.

    Even aside from the question of game content (whether the battle has been upgraded in all directions), this quality is really hard to believe that it is produced by Blizzard.

    Say nothing else, simply play a battle
    Various serious bugs: such as jumping out immediately after level loading, black screen
    Stuck everywhere, dropped frames: main menu freezes, network freezes, frequent in-game frame drops (must go out when choosing a building, and it must freeze when entering certain areas of some maps)
    There are also details that are obviously not QA proofreading: mapping errors (such as the fishman at the bottom level of the prologue), subtitle errors (too frequent), very obvious map trigger errors, etc.


    The only thing that shines in people's eyes is the overall rendering effect. The models, textures, lighting, particle effects, etc. are not bad. Of course, the animation effects specific to some units are actually low quality, which is very inconsistent with other parts of the game. Feeling (e.g. waterfall, spring)
    But the quality of a game really doesn't depend on this alone, and the rendering performance can be frankly bad in this era.

    Feelings after playing a few levels, this is simply not a patient polished product
    Both are RTS, and Starcraft 2 are not at the same level, it is difficult to believe that Blizzard can allow products of this quality to be released

    After waiting for so long, I cannot describe how much disappointed I am. Bought the game and played custom maps. It crashed in all of the games I played.

    The terrain looks awful and the menu ui looks unfinished. Refunded the game, I loved Warcraft 3 and now cannot play the game anymore.

    I cannot believe the game was released in this state. The new models look very odd on top of the old terrain. The artwork and animations just don't feel organic and awkward.

I was beyond exciting last year when the game was announced, and what was shown at Blizzcon and what is released now are two completely separate instances.

    Update: Blizzard abandoned this game and hasn't touched it since April 2021. What a waste.

    The last time I was so disappointed for anything related to a videogame was with the diablo3 release.
    This is so wrong I don't know where to begin.

    Reforged could have been an incredible opportunity to revive a masterpiece, for both the single and multiplayer. At least they did not retcon the story, and I got my refund lol.

Activision-blizzard is no longer a PC game developer, they're no longer a passionate company that gives a damn about their customers, and they're refusing to refund anyones money for this **** of a product. NOT TO MENTION; they have DENIED us access to a product we bought almost 17 years ago (You can no longer buy or play Warcraft 3 through their website/launcher.) Denial of service? Taking products that aren't even 100% online, offline? That we've owned for years? The game (WC3 Reforged) is a total burning pile of hot garbage. No promises were kept during their announcement 2 years ago. There's no automated tournaments, 3d backgrounds, custom campaigns, features that all existed in the original game, but the remake has less and less the more you look around it's been entirely gutted and crashes and disconnects you from matches, it just doesn't work. This isn't something you patch when they're missing art assets. That's development issues. They also changed the Terms of Service so that you can't use any custom assets, and more, such as taking 3d models (even if u make them urself) that look like Goku, and saying that it's not allowed and banning you. Oh and they're banning you if you complain about not getting a refund.

    Was really looking forward to this remake. I really liked how it looked as demo at BlizzCon 2018, it felt like nice remake of a beloved game. Now on release it looks like everything that were changed are models and textures of characters. Not sure why they released it at all if it feels more like original than a remake. Very cheap move from Blizzard.

    The old friend list gone.
    Custom game filter is gone.
    Custom game list is no longer global - you can't play custom games with people from other regions
    No MMR system.
    No custom keybinds.
    They removed the Dryad's "I'm so wasted" voice line, possibly others missing that have yet to be discovered.
    All the promised new cutscenes were cut.
    All the new English voice acting was cut.
    Foreign voice-acting, such as German and Russian, has been replaced with an inferior version, and is compulsory, it can NOT be changed back.
    All the new story content that was supposed to help tie the game into World of Warcraft was cut.
    The Arthas vs Illidan cutscene looks very cheap and amateurish.
    The menu is awful and slow. Looks like it was designed for a mobile device.
    The end of match summary is completely butchered and doesn't tell you useful info.
    Custom maps now have a report button so blizzard can ban maps and ban people hosting them for whatever reason they want.

    Most grievous of all, and what is completely unforgivable, is the fact that the old TFT classic client is gone. Even if you don't want anything to do with Reforged, the Reforged update is forced on you if you ever connect to Battle.net. It deletes your old client and replaces it with the new one. The old Battle.net is now gone.

    Finally, remember that this was delayed a month before release.

    This is probably the biggest rip off I have ever seen.

I have never been so disappointed in a launch, but this is pathetic. The game wont launch for me half the time, but I get "defeat" as soon as I launch the campaign.

Even the graphics in the game I find didn't change that much from the old one. I thought I was going to get a game like "Age of Empires: Definitive Edition", where the graphics were updated, the engine was revamped and they added new and improved Ai's and civilizations, but all I got was the same 2002 game being sold this year if I wanted to play the 2002 Warcraft, I would just reinstall it from the disks that I have.

    How they can continue to advertise this game using footage that ISN'T EVEN IN THE GAME is unbelievable. Bugs are one thing, network problems another, but wholly missing advertised features, cutscenes, and animations is beyond the pale.

    I played Warcraft 3 as a child, and though Reforged has appealing aesthetics, it disappoints in almost every other way. Blizzard launched Reforged rife with bugs and rendered classic WC3 - that I had already paid for separately - inaccessible. Campaigns regularly swap to instant defeat. The Beta worked better than the launch client.

It is full of bugs, the graphics are rushed and unpolished (even the menus look worse than the original). Hardly anything from the classic game works.. sounds.. replays.. they abandoned virtually everything they promised to deliver in this game. That's why they released it silently.

    I imagine in 2017 a conversation at Activision/Blizzard went like this:

    "Hey we totally missed the boat on DotA by not paying attention to our community and capitalizing on easy opportunities.. how can we not do that?"
    "I know, we'll change the EULA (user agreement) so that anyone who makes a custom game has to give it to us 100% so we can make all the money off it, and they get none!"
    "Brilliant! But nobody will like that... how can we make this okay?"
    "We could 'remake' warcraft 3? Give it some quality of life updates and some new graphics? Then poeple will be happy to play the new game with the new EULA."
    "Great idea, but I don't want to actually spend any money in order to make money... how about we just outsource everything for cheap, spend hardly any money at all, and update the EULA in the new game? We spend nothing, and make tons!!"
    "Brilliant!"
    "Brilliant!!!"

The guys working on the game were passionate, I've been following them quite vividly and their communication with the community and dedication was evident. However the project required a lot more time and in-house art staff to help truly bring this game to life. From the very first beta footage I saw, something striking hit me. Models were with radically different sizes and with very varying quality. That was very quick proof that the art was outsourced to a 3rd company and as such, simple corrections couldn't be quickly or efficiently done.
    .
    Now a lot of people are complaining about the old engine and they are in their right. However the engine isn't entirely the same. In the last 2 years since this game's inception, an absolute ton of beefing up was done to the game's engine, allowing for many new cool things to be achieved with it. However that potential was not tapped into with this remake. If anything, fans of classic Warcraft 3 can enjoy them, as those improvements to the engine allow for more advanced and better optimised custom maps to be released. Too bad Blizzard discourages map creation with their new end user licence... What a terrible time for this game to be developed at...

    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.
