    This is not what you promised. Just terrible optimization, hackneyed implementation of the game menu, etc.

    For all people here.
    This game is meh..
    Wc3 classic is unsinkable. And you can't "reforge" legendary game by one iteration to the garbage. This game is about 4-6 of 10. This is typical steam early access strategy game for 3$ with typical problems. But Blizzard had promised so much more for us. That i just can't take it. This is 0. The only way to fix this: - fix all bugs - update

    Meshes are okey.
    The only thing, that's "okey" it Warcraft III: Reforged.
    There's no new graphics, no new weather, no new sun effects. This is really bad remaster, but, this is not a remaster - this is Reforged. Well, no. Theres nothing reforged in Reforged. It's well played, and interesting, because of 18 years old decisions. All new content is kinda bad. И что сделали с озвучкой

    I love the new graphics but the fact that the cutscenes aren't redone is ridiculous.

And I found out, and this is less on Blizzards part but they decided not to add new cutscenes and to make the game fit better in the lore by working with Christie Golden which is so disappointing they would give in to the "fans" of the game when Christie is by far the best writer for the Warcraft series, books or games, and it was have been amazing to see new things added.

    За пару дней я прошла несколько кампаний...ничего не буду говорить про оптимизацию и лаги, и так много сказано уже. Не знаю, для кого сделан средний режим сложности, но я его не ощутила вообще. Модельки красивые, да, радуют глаз, но при общих лагах атмосферы не чувствуется, некоторые анимации сделаны на отвали. Чувство, будто карты глав уменьшили, работа над ландшафтом КельТаласа плохая: стоит сравнить атмосферность карт глав, где Арт*с только приходит в эльфийские леса, из в3 и рефорж...

    Они потеряли ту атмосферу, ту манящую изюминку, душу...

    Так как я очень люблю варкрафт, я могу простить близам эту халтуру, но кара в виде горящих пуканов моих со-фанатов таки настигнет их.

    - No actual new content or cinematics

    It's not as bad as everyone's been claiming, however it without a doubt does NOT live up to what was expected. It's liked everyone's been lied to about the new features or content in this game as there's none. In short, It's literally Warcraft 3 with better graphics, runs worse and has more bugs. 6/10 is my final rating.

    Can only comment on offline custom games. Was very bad at first, I was just playing AI and would disconnect due to connection?! Can now seem to play offline or it has been better displayed on GUI to logout or force custom game wherein there is only AI. Am more of a huge Broodwar fan...but graphics are nice but have lost some cartoonish charm.

    I think wc3 reforged is very flawed. However with the amount of people giving this game a 0/10 i can't really take those "reviews" seriously.
    This game is NOT a 0/10 game.
    I personally picked it up just before it fully released. Somwhere in the beta, like many players warcraftIII was my favorite game growing up, mainly for the custom games. Contrary to what many people here claim

    This game is NOT a 0/10 game.

    I personally picked it up just before it fully released. Somwhere in the beta, like many players warcraftIII was my favorite game growing up, mainly for the custom games.

    Contrary to what many people here claim the classic version of the game was borderline unplayable before reforged. small playerbase, constant crashes, ect. Since reforged i've still had some crashes but notibally less. Most of my disconects were my internet falling off instead of the game fatal error'ing on me. This for sure wasn't the case when i still played classic a year or two back. In classic i could almost never get a good game in.

    A lot of content got scrapped. For example reconecting to the game was promised at one point but not implemented. Just like many things were scrapped afterwards.
    The activision move to copyright custom maps is really terrible aswell. honestly someone should fire whoever makes these decisions.

    Reforged it'self however has been amazing as a secondary game for me. I've relived some of the fun i've had in the past and for the first time really played the campaign seriously.

    I don't remember how it was when i played this in classic but it never felt quite the same as it did in reforged. I LOVED the campaign. for the first time in my life i really connected to the story and that's honestly quite fun.

    I almost never completely play a game start to end but wc3 reforged was a blast for me personally.

    i don't remember there being this many missions.
    Here's a small summary of my thoughts:

    Contrary to what many people here claim:
    -custom games performance has improved ALOT. no more automatic hosting bots and 10k ping games that were the result of cross server mergings. And way less desyncs.
    -Still some of the same bugs however, desyncs do still happen sometimes, reconnecting is still not added.

    -New models look really nice. there are a TON of them
    -24 player maps are pretty fun and they still fill up decently right now, eras zombie invasion with 24 players playing as denmark or morocco is amazing!
    -The Campaign is more fun than it ever was before. For the first time in my life i really loved playing through it. I haven't had this much of a blast playing a campaign since dishonered II. The story might still be the same but on reforged for the first time it got through to me.
    -Non custom PVP seems to be ruined. I personally never really played that too much but i know others do. However in all honesty before reforged only a few hundred players ever played classic pvp wc3 and most of those are way to good to have fun at it anyway.

    Final thoughts:

    It's honestly been a joy to see my favorite game of all time be playable in better graphics with newer models and so on. While the gameplay might still be most of the same warcraft 3 is a timeless game. Theres a reason we were still playing before reforged released. I am personally very happy that blizzard made this. While the execution hasn't been that great the campaign is amazing and custom games seem to function better.
    I hope they patch in some of the things they promised before, and maybe add some scrapped functions again.

    I hope blizzard isn't discouraged to keep working on this game and over time improve it. If they ditch this here this would be a "failure" but there is a LOT of potential to work with here. Alot of the decisions made were good. They should take that and give us some of the features they initially promised but scrapped along the way. There are a ton of people still playing. While it's currently rated as 0.6/10 it's definitely not what people are taking into account since alot of us are enjoying it alot still.

    I signed up on this site because of this game and what it means. This game is a interesting phenomenon from a critics point of view. It's a bad remake of an amazing game.

    I'm baffled. I don't know how i should review this game. Warcraft 3 was incredible and Reign of chaos has a score of 9.2 here on Metacritic. It's still the same game we all know and loved but i'm just so disappointed

It's still the same game we all know and loved but i'm just so disappointed in the final results that i don't want to give it the same review. I already owned Warcraft 3 so i bought it with the understanding that the new cinematic they promised were actually in the game. They broke their promise and lied to us.

    The question is, does it deserve a zero? Do we review Warcraft 3 or the "fancy" new paint job. Do we review our disappointment or are we just sick of "evil" video game companies taking advantage of us?

    I understand why people are upset with professional critics. It's known that if you don't give a game game a good review they will loose their perks. Youtubers will loose their early review copies making them miss out of hype view counts and behemoths like Ign and Gamespot will loose exclusive trailers and interviews which is the only reason why they are so big.

    I just read the Ign review for this game i understand why they gave the game a 7. Yes, 7 is the score you give a bad game from a business daddy but reading the review i saw this was a person who loved Warcraft.

    I still like the game. It's Warcraft 3. It's one of the best RTS's of all time. But given all that has been going on with Blizzard and just the video game industry in general. I'm not happy.

    I can't give this game the same review as the original. But it's Warcraft 3! I have the option of playing with the old graphics but i don't. So i can't give it a 0 either. I'm just going to give this a a bland 5 for the bland remake it is.

    Итак. Пусть это будет мой первый отзыв об игре, надо же с чего-то начинать.

Пусть это будет мой первый отзыв об игре, надо же с чего-то начинать. До сей поры игры у меня не вызывали особо разочарования, я старался искать плюсы и опускать минусы, ну или сводить эти минусы в минимальным проблемам игры. Когда был только анонсирован WC3 Reforged, для меня это было чем-то потрясающим, вау, старая игра с новой графикой, новые катсцены, обновленная кампания! И вот проходит 2(?) года и месяц с предзаказа мной данной игры. Первое что порадовало, обилие матчей в пользовательских играх, в открытой бете я очень таки наигрался в различные кастомки с новым и старым графоном. Но вот сидишь в меню игры, смотришь на это все и не ощущаешь тех чувств, когда запускаешь оригинальный WC3, будь то Reign of chaos или же Frozen Throne. В частности при выборе кампании тебя сразу же закидывают в миссию, не давая попасть в выбор этих миссий. Почему я уделяю внимание именно этому? Мне очень нравились фракционные меню кампаний, вот выбираешь кампанию ночных эльфов, экран темнеет и переносит тебя к совершенно другим декорациям, на фоне которых и стоит лучница ночных эльфов. В Reforged эти самые меню тоже есть, но... Псевдоанимированные картинки, серьезно? Ладно, это все же мелочи, но это первое за что я зацепился. Поиграв в "Исход орды" мне понравилась картинка в целом, но вот цветовая гамма местности ну как-то не очень, мягко говоря. И вот я снова зацепился за мелочь. Портреты персонажей. В катсценках при разговоре они не выглядят живыми. Статичный взгляд, почти неподвижная голова, не говоря уже про "липсинк". Да, игра на том же самом движке, я понимаю. Но вот даже на старых модельках они выглядели живее, хоть и немного нелепо. Снова мелочи, снова придирки. Но не тут то было, просадки ФПС, здравствуйте, давно не виделись в WC3! Видно очень сильно грузят новые текстурки мою систему, понимаю. Ладно катсцены, но неужели активижен настолько сильно подгонял, что вы игровые ролики не смогли переделать? Меня очень порадовал вступительный ролик, почти тот же самый, что я увидел в первый раз (это про орка и пехотинца, которому оторвут руку в оригнальном ролике, а в обновленной версии нет (у нас тут как бы овервотч по соседству, какие оторванные конечности, вы что!))
    Сам геймплей ощущается таким же, каким и был, мне нравится история игры, персонажи и весь мир игры. Моя оценка 5, но это оценка самой Warcraft 3. Оценка Warcraft 3 Reforged - 0 баллов. Я играю в тот же самый варкрафт, но с новыми текстурками и звуками. Боюсь, что тех самых Blizzard, которые могли и умели выпускать игры, которые мы любим больше нет. Балом правит Activision и кошелек Бобби Котика, прибыль с игр и цензура. Мое уважение Bungie хотя бы за то, что свалили из этого, надеюсь у Blizzard настанут лучшие времена. А пока, очень боюсь за Diablo 4 и будущее WoW.

    Not a great launch and unfortunately the month long delay for the release date doesn't seem like it was enough for the game to actually improve and have everything fleshed out.

The game needed another month maybe even two. Because of all the current problems with the game I would rate it a 5/10. But with time when the game gets patched and many of the issues get fixed, I'm sure this game could be a solid 7/10 or 8/10 (I will most probably update my score then). Unfortunately, compared to the original, which released in 2002, this remaster version can't even hold a candle to it. Maybe in the future if there is another massive graphics and animation overhaul, in addition to all of the other bugs being fixed it could reach a score of 10. Otherwise, for the moment I don't see it or feel the nostalgia.

    Pros:
    - Nice graphics, but not as amazing as I expected.
    - Nice magic effects, but not as good or revamped as expected.
    - Some??? cut-scenes have been re-rendered and look amazing.

    Cons:
    - The fight animations (magic casting, ranged and melee) are on occasion not consistent, e.g. character stops mid animation or repeats animation etc.
    - Moreover, I expected new fight and movement/death animations and improved magic effects. But this is just about the same as the original.
    - Some of the old modded maps work, which is nice, but many don't work as they should, which is crap.
    - Stat screen at the end of games seems to on occasion have hero icons floating all over the place or not showing stats in genera? (not sure if this is just me)
    - Campaign missions seem bugged at times (at least the prologue missions seem to work).

    Да из-за этого "Ремастера / Рескина", а не "Перековки" (язык тут вообще не поворачивается называть это ей), нас по сути лишили классики, так как теперь её "официально" и "легально" можно достать только при помощи "пиратства" (да не могу в это поверить сам даже немного). "Но есть же переключение графики" - скажете вы и будете "частично" правы, да переключение есть вот только с ним в этот раз напортачили знатно:
    Если взять ситуацию со Starcraft где сделали "платный ремастер" с возможностью переключения, как на новую, так и на старую графику и где сам он формально является "отдельной игрой", а "классическая" версия также осталась в "не изменённом виде", да и бесплатно стала раздаваться с возможностью вообще "легально" в неё играть, то вот с Warcraft III разработчики решили сделать всё намного "жестче": оригинал просто напросто "насильно затолкали" в ремастер причём в буквальном смысле, теперь сыграть в старый Warcraft III со "старой, русской озвучкой" и с некоторыми фишками мультиплеера у вас просто не получится, точнее "получиться" конечно, но "формально" вы теперь скачиваете "Перековку" в "старом виде", потому что вам теперь нужно 30 ГБ свободного Дискового Пространства, вместо 2 ГБ для игры 2002 ГОДА КАРЛ! причём, возможности сыграть именно в СТАРУЮ версию тупо нет даже бесплатно нельзя её скачать, а те у кого был куплен Warcraft III ещё до его официальной "Перековки", теперь можно смело сказать, что они "выкинули" 998 Руб. (цена покупки обоих дополнений старой версии игры), так как в самой игре теперь делать нечего: в кастомки не сыграешь по нормальному из-за багов, серверные аккаунты со всеми достижениями были потёрты в хлам, как будто в эту игру никто и никогда не играл, а вышла она только сейчас, кастомные кампании теперь также были вырезаны под корень (а ведь я, автор этого отзыва, в детстве начал активно задротить в Warcraft III, именно из-за этой "фичи") да и новые и ни кому не ведомые баги появились в игре 2002 Года не с того ни с сего.

    В общем подводя итог, я скажу что в этом "Ремастере" хорошо получились только две вещи:
    1) Теперь каждые модельки имеют свои "уникальные" текстуры и нет "повторений", которые были в "Классической" версии.
    2) Хорошо узнаваемую и возможно кому-то въевшуюся в память Музыку игры, также обновили и местами она начала звучать по новому.
    Все остальные, новые Вещи появившиеся в "Ремастере" (включая и Графику), это определённо Шаг назад от "Классики".

    I was super excited about this. I loved WC, WCII, WCIII when I played them originally. I preordered this the minute it was enabled. I am extremely disappointed in the game to this point. Day 1, I was not able to even play the prologue or campaign, as they would automatically end as a defeat before starting. I was finally able to get into the game, which looks nice but feels terribleI was super excited about this. I loved WC, WCII, WCIII when I played them originally.

    Game was not as remastered as advertised. Graphics ain't the best but it still Warcraft III gameplay. So yeah

    Played a few days and didn't expect anything.
    Worked normally for me except some lags.
    This is still the same warcraft with better graphic, but with some interface problems and optimization.
    Hope that Blizzard will fix it.

    Do it deserve such low rate? No, it is still WarCraft III we all know and love, but Activision Blizzard deserve this rate. Why? Because of false advertisement, lying to the fans, and not making their promises live. And of course, every fan made map is a property of Activison Blizzard, which means that the interest of the map makers will fall down. Otherwise, gameplay is still the same,Do it deserve such low rate? No, it is still WarCraft III we all know and love, but Activision Blizzard deserve this rate. Why?

    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.
