    Well. This is not a good remake, honestly. Some models look great, most don't. Its not that they are not high quality, its just that they don't hold the Warcraft charm and style and look like Heroes of the Storm. Generally, the game looks like these anime custom maps - out of place. Terrain definitely looks nice, but it can't compensate for everything. The units are harder to identify,Well. This is not a good remake, honestly. Some models look great, most don't. Its not that they are not high quality, its just that they don't hold the Warcraft charm and style and look like Heroes of the Storm. Generally, the game looks like these anime custom maps - out of place. Terrain definitely looks nice, but it can't compensate for everything. The units are harder to identify, both which unit it is and which player they belong to. I have requested a refund.

    All of the above would be palatable if not for the following things :
    1. The menu is extremely choppy, on 60fps. The classic menu was not that smooth in its transitions, but this one is somehow even worse.
    2. The UI is different and I am not sure if it is for the better. Looks a bit disorienting in custom game lobbies. The custom games browser is better visually at least, not sure if it is functionally. It looks more like a funny casual mobile game's UI, rather than a Warcraft UI. Its not horrible, but could be better.
    3. The biggest downside : Unit movement animations are 30fps even when the game runs at 60. It legit looks like lag. Its terrible and its an eyesore. It is virtually unplayable.
    4. Bugs? I started the main campaign to check it out and when i immediately saw the 3. issue, i quit the mission. I tried a custom game - same. Then I tried switching to classic mode and started the campaign again and guess what - the campaign would not even start. It loaded and then it presented me with a Defeat screen.
    5. No LAN and no custom games filters? Come on. I mean. Come on.

    Realistically, i would set this at a score of 3. I am setting it as 0 because i would NOT recommend it to anyone and because i want to lower the average score.

Blizzard has testified to his incompetence and the fact that there is no capable, inexperienced employee in the team who cares about the players. All this, of course, is in the interest of consumerism. Nauseous.

    Instead what we got?

    - No new UI
    - No new cutscenes (even the blizzcom one was removed)
    - Lots of old features missing

    Additionally, the game runs like hot **** garbage, the connectivity is terrible, and the absolute bare-bones nature of the multiplayer options is inexcusable. Howe do you make a remaster and REMOVE features? The lies about the remastered cutscenes and everything else is pathetic. An absolute bait and switch that leaves everyone dissapointed.

    Lastly, the blatant corporate greed behind sabotaging the custom games scene is disgusting. The custom games scene that sparked an entire new genre that blizzard couldn't stick their dicks into really made them mad. So now, they can sue anyone for any content they make, and declare that they flat out own it, leaving the modders in the dust with no compensation or even credit. It's disgusting and vile. **** you Blizzard.

    For anyone that is still holding out hope that Blizz will some how come to their senses, wake up if this disaster hasn't already woken you up that the old standards that we expect from this company are GONE. Any old employees still with the company have severely compromised their integrity for profit.

    Game over all feels like a scam, likes of which are commonly seen on steam. Where a developer/publisher releases and early-access game with promises of great future, with new and promised features and fixes to all the problems in the world. When in reality you are lucky to have AN update after which the developer/publisher will state that the game is released and no future content is planed for the game.
    Yet saying all of that I would conclude that Steam is still better due to the fact that it will let you get a refund on fair terms and will not lie to you about it.

    Ten minuses and a single plus.

    The game has removed several important features which the original possessed, like custom campaigns. It's a buggy mess and crashes consistently. But here's the kicker- you can't just go back to the old version of your beloved game any more! If it had been released without ruining the old version, I would have given it a 4, maybe a 5. But to make an existing product much, much worse than it was? How could that ever earn a 1?

    I tried to refund, they 'resolved' my ticket without telling me if they are going to refund me or not. As of now I still have the game, uninstalled.

Я все понимаю - игре 18 лет, сервера Батлнет могли отключить и все такое, но ПОЧЕМУ ни одного сообщения от Близард - ЧТО ВСЕ БОЛЬШЕ ВЫ НЕ ИГРАЕТЕ В WARCRAFT ROC/TFT, ТЕПЕРЬ ТОКА Reforget?????
    Те кто покупал на Дисках еще может установить и не обновляться, те кто купил электронно теперь через сайт устанавливают Reforged(

    Все это печально.

    Do not buy this game, it does not deliver on its promise. If you did, do not shy from asking a refund. It is so bad, Warcraft 3 Reforged might help me stop playing. Ironically enough, it is largely due to the original Warcraft 3 I got into gaming. Now I feel a bit like the magic is gone, as if I could see the cold grin of the corporate marketing and not Warcraft universe I like so much.

    I can't believe the lack of quality that went into this.

    Even worse, the lack of features. It's basically just a reskin. It really seems blizzard has lost their touch with actual gamers, and the bean counters have truly taken over. I've asked for my money back. RIP to the #1 game I played through my childhood.

    Not the game they promised. They "sold" us a remade and updated game in 2018 and now they released just a reskin with pretty much nothing changed and tons of bugs. In addition, they wiped out the old Warcraft 3 content from the servers. This game is a scam that deserves to be refunded.

    The only thing this game improved on are the graphics, and that alone is somewhat of an overstatement. Warcraft 3 Reforged is a joke of a remaster riddled with bugs and unkept promises.

    Reforged is perhaps the biggest cashgrab of recent years, coming from a company with shady practices as of recent time. Not only does it not improve the base game, but it fundamentally breaks it so much, that any future updates are a far and away dream.

    I made an account just to make a review on this. Warcraft III will always hold a special place in my heart, as it effortlessly carried the torch that was lit with Warcraft II, and lit the way for Blizzard to succeed and maintain their status as a PC and RTS juggernaut.

    This game **** on the entire Mausoleum dedicated to Warcraft. With Starcraft Remastered, Blizzard showed some dedication and made the entire game free-to-play and 1080p-viable, while charging only a slight amount for the privilege to have a completely overhauled experience. Nothing about the game seemed to slog, but with Warcraft III: Reforged, the exact opposite is true.

    THIS IS NOW THE ONLY LEGITIMATE WAY TO PLAY WARCRAFT III. What used to be a $10 purchase on Blizzard's own site, for Classic Games, is now $30, take it or leave it. With it, you can expect the following features:
    - Enhanced portraits, models, and textures
    - Battle.net compatibility (never mind the fact that WCIII was Battle.net compatible back when it launched in 2002)
    - Matchmaking
    - A 2-second delay on ALL voice lines, as though a courier was running to you with a tape recorder with a recent message from Arthas Menethil, and when you play it it says "I'm here to help". You tell what the courier to do, he runs back, and comes back with the same tape recorder, and this time he says "A sound plan".
    - The ability to pour your heart and soul into making a custom map / game mode in Warcraft III's innovative map editor (or rather, use the one that was bundled with the game in 2002), have Blizzard steal the intellectual rights out from under your nose with their innovative terms of service, and then ban your account because your map / game mode broke their rules somehow, or upset one of four very irritable nations and Papa Blizzard still wants that dank cash flow for their insatiable investors. You are now out $30.

    THIS IS A LEGITIMATE TURN OF EVENTS THAT BLIZZARD IS WITHIN THEIR RIGHTS TO DO, BECAUSE THEY SET WHAT THEY ARE WITHIN THEIR RIGHTS TO DO.

    This is the only way to play this game now. As of writing this, Warcraft III: Reforged has a 1.1 / 10. Compare this to Fallout 76's 2.7/10. As a prior Blizzard fan, I can only weep. (I can't request a refund because everyone who has tried to help has been banned.)

ХЗ) или вот прошёл пред последнюю миссию за людей загружается последняя миссия нажимаю кнопку чтоб начать миссию , что вы думаете произошло? мне написали миссия провалена ( я ее начать толком то не успел как я ее провалить успел?).

    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.
