    They REMOVED the original WC3:TFT (you can NOT play W3 via the old client anymore). That was the WC3 client that you could run on your old laptop - it is REMOVED from the existence! The new client of WC3:Reforged is Buggy, Laggy, Crashes, Ugly -- Reforged is 100% SCAM and LIES!

    Спасибо Blizzard за отвратную игру, полную багов, вылетов и прочей лажи. Нет новых сцен, просто перенесли движок. Лажа полная, не третьте деньги на это.

    **** game, forced update. Also hidden in the End user license agreement is a clause that says Blizzard owns everything you make (mods and whatnot). Very greedy indeed.

    Been playing the campaign, and this game is awesome. I'm aware it had a rocky start, but things are coming together and I'm having a blast and the graphics look great!

    Worse than the original game in all respects (except for unit models). The changes in campaign are negligible, the original version is no longer available and the cutscenes remained the same. But most importantly, Blizzard lied to their fans and ripped them off.

    First off, I want to say I'm sorry to those greedy ***** who didn't have the profit they wanted, and I'd like to share my disappointment regarding the lowest Blizzard has ever sunken before. Thanks for the typical corporate response that shifts the blame off yourselves and onto the players you intentionally misled, I hope all the backlash was worth getting that fiscal report in on time.First off, I want to say I'm sorry to those greedy ***** who didn't have the profit they wanted, and I'd like to share my disappointment regarding the lowest Blizzard has ever sunken before.

    How do you destroy one of the most amazing game legacies in history?

    Well, let's see... You could re-release a worse version of the game with only 1/3rd of the features, while simultaneously shutting down the servers for the original that have served strong for 20 years.

    Great job Blizz. You succeeded.

    the reforged graphics arn't worth 30-40 €.
    Versus 4vs4 random team is horrible to play, about 50% of the games at least 1 player of your or the other team leaves or gets a disconnect.
    and at least 1-2 times a week the ping is 450+ so its unplayable.
    don't buy this game don't support blizzard anymore

    Unlike many, I never really stopped playing WC3, especially custom games. When I saw a reforged version was coming out, I was thrilled! I didn't preorder (thankfully), but had every intention of purchasing upon release. I've played on Macs since 2010, prior to that was on PC.

When I saw a reforged version was coming out, I was thrilled! I didn't preorder (thankfully), but had every intention of purchasing upon release. I've played on Macs since 2010, prior to that was on PC.

    Frankly, I was already annoyed at the shift to Metal in the final patches of TFT, as my 2010 top of the line 27" iMac doesn't support metal. I could use a terminal launch to force openGL, and that worked fine for a bit but was already unnecessary. Then this reforged thing came out, and to my surprise, I had no choice but to adopt it! That immediately killed support on my 27" iMac, so naturally, I switch to my brand new quad core 2020 macbook air. Sure, not a gaming machine, but this is WC3 we're talking about...I played RoC on a 1.6ghz G5 iMac back in 2006 bc I could.

    The game is absolutely unplayable. Even at lowest graphics settings, I can't run at native resolution. I cant change my cursor speed or mouse sensitivity, which just boggles my mind, so the cursor is way too slow, even after adjusting it in the OS. The new custom map EULA is a joke...blizzard now wants ownership of what individuals and enthusiasts have worked hard over the years to keep WC3 a relevant game. The whole thing is just absolutely disgusting. The worst part? I can't even revert back to the normal game! While I could play this game for 10 years on my iMac, now, forever, I can't. That's just mind-blowing to me. Blizzard should have left a great game a great game and worked on WC4. This was not just a letdown, it physically breaks the game that I've enjoyed for the past 17 years. This will go down as the worst launch in history...it has to.

    Anybody who tries to defend this game must take into account that this isn't just a remastered separate release. It breaks the original game for all eternity. Shame on Blizzard, really, are the nicest words to describe my feelings about this. Technically, I can (sometimes) launch the game, so it gets a 1, not a zero.    … Expand

    A complete mess. A complete money grab. In any other industry, this would be considered false advertising and I hope this spells the end for Blizzard. They've been **** on gamers ever since the Activision takeover.

    I wonder how many acutual played the game. 2 facts remain. First the Camp is still top of the line its not better then the original one and not worse its nearly the same. Sec the mulitplayer is a **** show tbh. releasing a game in 2020 without a ladder is no small error its a huge mistake and clans also missing does not help the game at all.

    The eula controversy yeah its nothing special    I wonder how many acutual played the game. 2 facts remain.

    The eula controversy yeah its nothing special other companies do that too why only critic the **** out of blizz for it? its kinda hypocritical.

    but i do wanna say most of the missing stuff leaves the taste of it needed more time
    and the beta kinda proved that so why they still released the game in that state i don't know

    for the sake of the esport they should have waited for the solo players id did not make that much of a difference then most ppl would agree but tbh. for solo players reforged is fine

    Le gameplay est vraiment cool, je suis fan de l’univers depuis que l’original est sorti. Sincèrement, l’original est bcp mieux et a plus de contenu que reforged. Je suis complètement déçu du travail fait pour ce remake.

    Bought the game disregarding the review bombs. It has terrible performance, often lagging and dropping to abysmal frame rates. Sound will de-sync during gameplay and sometimes not return for 5 minutes. I expect more out of a remaster of an 18 year old game, especially after the stellar Starcraft Remaster in 2017. Is this a sub 1 rating game? No. But is deserving of scorn. Be better 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.
