Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne

Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
someone told me that two was better but ive never really seen 3
|
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
2 has some points i miss in 3.
but overall 3 is much better. the heros addition alone makes it so. |
I play Counter Strike

Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
thank you sir, for answering the question im sure everyone was dying to know.

I've only played the Beta, so I'm sure my impressions are out of date now.
It's good to see that massing dryads isn't such a dominant tactic any more. That used to tick me off because it's not the way they're meant to be used, but after a while, that was the only thing Night Elf players did. And it usually worked, too. This should be pretty fun at the start when people are still figuring things out. During the beta, I used to rip up Orc players who kept trying to mass shamans against me while I was playing Humans. It was great. My favorite hero is the Shadow Hunter for Orc. One time, I was playing with my roommate as an ally. He was Human and I was Orc. Big Bad Voodoo + Holy Light on the Shaman = destroyed enemies. :D Serpent Wards are pretty cool, too. I hope they've balanced out some of the neutral heroes, though. Some of them were completely ridiculous such as the Naga Sea Witch with Forked Lightning. My one complaint during the beta was that air power got seriously shafted. There's almost no reason to use flying units any more. There are too many commonly used units that can rip them up (spellcasters and ranged units). The point of air units is to attack other air units (especially Frost Wyrms and Chimeras) or ground units that can't hit back, but if the enemy is always going to be able to hit back just be following a normal strategy, what's the point? |
Xantar, Chimeras can't attack air units.
How much does that suck? They can only attack ground units. So you need to make sure your opponent is strictly ground before mass chimeraring. I like Gargolyles, and lots of them. They are quite cheap and good. |

dats why for your ground when you make chims. you make the doods that can turn into birds. druids of something i forget the name. i use chims more as siege more then anything. while ground is attacking enemy, chims swoop in from behind and destroy thier town. |

Of course, none of these are quite as good as sorceresses with Polymorph. Man, that spell is fun when you pull it off. :D Quote:
Of course, the guy I was up against was a fool who couldn't focus fire, but still, gargoyles aren't very useful against ground units. That's what the frost wyrms are for. |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
Blast I can't wait! Isn't it out already?? :D
I really hope they paid heed to the problems Xantar described. :( |
I just got it!!!
The ability to make your own shops is a bit confusing, and maybe a bit too much. I like the additional hero and units idea, even though I don't know what half of them do ..........yet. Those Orc ones are weird (with the linking ability) but could be good to use if you have many taurens on your team (for tauren summoning). What the hell do those Night elf flying units do?? I'm gonna play campaign, then battlenet all the way. So far my fave heroes are Human/Undead/Night Elf. Don't like the Orc one, but maybe I haven't used him properly. Undead one is so sick! And those night elf rock dudes are good! So much though. Love the game right now. The intro kicked ass. Love Blizzard! |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
go to www.war3.com for info on the new units.
|
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
I'll buy it when I have my new PC... :cool:
|
warlords battle cry has a better hero system the warcraft 3
the biggest reson warcraft3 in my opinion suked was the limit on the amout of units u can make unlike warcraft 2 in wich you can build a hored of units and swarm your opponet |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
If you could "SWARM" your opponent with 200+ units it would make the Heroes less useful.
|
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
I agree, it's just a totally different play style, and I like it!
If you like massing... well than perhaps this is nog your game. BTW if you have a huge army (100 is the limit in FT), you can still swarm the enemy because they never have that much. :) Single player is pretty cool too BTW. :) |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
So....... months later, I care to post my profile. :angel:
I've been playing TFT a lot lately and now I have a 50% winning strike again. :D I've lost a few games that I should never have played (1v1, arranged team), but I'm pretty good at team games. 39/33, level 13. The highest level I got with RoC was 14. After that, I only got to play with ally n00bs, so I went down to 12 again. :( I'd still like to play with you guys some times, but it's so hard... :( my profile: http://www.battle.net/war3/ladder/w3...Name=Canyarion |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
a year later you mean. :p
and i reformated, and my cousin has my WC3 CD, i have the TFT CD. but i need my first back to reinstall =/ |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
I just bought a new computer... and with it the Warcraft 3 battle chest......... I havn't played it yet though, so I'll suck... which makes me sad...
|
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
*gets out notepad*

I remember playing against.. Neo? I think he used mass probotectors. :D I beated GameMaster the other day. :p |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
Null, I like your WC themed NE signature picture. :)
|
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
Yes GM, I don't like yours.
Oh wait, you don't have one. :unsure: How bout a game sometime? |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
:D ty
and i'll beat er um play ya guys sometime............ as soon as i get my WC install CD back... HMMMM. i wonder if i could access one of my old bad HD's and copy the WC folder over, then install WC TFT over that.... yessss that might work... |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
Do you have MSN Messenger? angrist@home.nl
And let's see who kicks whose ass. :p *realises he only plays team games, never 1 on 1* Hm... |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne

Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
The new beta patch is now availabe for testing. :) 2 new heroes: Firelord and Goblin Alchemist.
I've been playing with it for a couple of hours and it's cool. The Firelord is a bit overpowerd though....... I like the Blademaster's windwalk much better now, he can walk through units :D. Select 'Westfall' as your gateway and download it automaticly. :) |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
True, the Firelord is currently unfair. Especially when the other team all use Firelords, talk about being newbie-ish. But alas, the Blade Master can still kill them with a couple Wind Walk strikes. :)
|
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
The summons are too powerful. 1 lava spawn turns into 4 eventually...... :(
|
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
I rule at 4 vs. 4 games! Grunts 2 Tauren!
|
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
Firelord will be weakened for sure.
Alchemist kinda sux. But he's fun. I refuse to use Firelord as he's too powerful. But Dk + Lich combo kills him pretty quick. |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
Here's my standard way of playing:
Grunts, Far Seer, Witch Doctors, Shaman. Perhaps Tauren and Spirit Walkers. ^_^ Works pretty well, but I need a second mine for those Tauren..... Oh yeah that's of course 3v3. I must rely on my allies for anti-air. :p |

In team it's better to build up like that. In single it's not usually the case to get Taurens. |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
I'm level 18 now, with 67/57 winning strike in team games. :p
I keep loving this game..... |
Re: WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne
I just got WC3. didn't get frozen throne yet. maybe i'll pick up a copy within the next 2 weeks, but with school and all, ugh..it's gonna be a crush.
