Well I suppose that there aren't nearly as good monsters as there are in HOMM3 and WoG 3.58f.
The monsters in HOMM3 are awesome, and are really good detalied.
Also including that nearly or every monster has an upgraded form of it.
And that adds more depth and variety in monster looks and abilities and skills.
Another thing to add is the Artifact placement system in both homm2 and homm3.
In HOMM2 you could only have a maximum of 14 artifacts including the Spell Book.
Whereas in HOMM3 I think that the maximum may be like 50 artifacts which you can hold in your backback but you can have the extra amount in the various places where you wish to place them.
Here is the Difference in the Artifacts system within both of the games:
HOMM2 Artifact System
HOMM3 Artifact System 1
HOMM3 Artifact System 2 another version which I found
Also in HOMM2 there are far less Secondary skills that you can choose from.
In HOMM3 there are alot more, and most of the secondary skills in HOMM2 are alright, but there are way more good secondary skills to choose from in HOMM3 and thats makes the game more challenging and fun to play.

Graphics. It is not bad for a seven year old game though.

Some creatures are really expensive. But i disagree when you tell about Titans.
They are the most powerfull ranged creature in the game; are immune to some good spells like blind, bersek, forgetfullness and weakness; Hate the Black Dragon, what made him a great weapon against dungeonīs army; its the fastest non-flying creature of the game(except the Crystal Dragon, but it is a neutral creature)and in the hand-to-hand combat he is so good like in the ranged.
So, itīs a good price.

one thing about homm3 complete i find a bit annoying is that if you are playing online with someone and leave the game opened for like 15+ minutes, the connection gets dropped quite often.
its also that annoying that sometimes you can't talk to someone or see what they are typing if they are being attacked.

I cant belive you put an option that the GAME is bad....
as for the growth, the skeletons suck, thats why they get such a good growth, its called balance(they get better with the upgrade tho).
the graphics arent bad at all. its just pure style, i think it is one of the great strenghts of the game. its got that half 3d half cartoony look. i am sure that even if i play the game 10 years from now i wont feel it's old because of the graphics. i mean come on.
ill agree on the opening sound tho, kinda annoying.
the cost is based on strenght i think.
the gameplay can probably feel a bit dull to some.
i think it kicks ass tho  (only thing is that load unload boat thing)

Vote: Starting combat music
Well, actually it's possible to get rid from delays at the beginning of each combat. Just put volume of "sound effects" to 0 and these annoying sounds will be skipped with no delay. However, I personally like to play with sound effects. I have asked already TE developers if they can disable "Starting combat music" in future TE version...

Yep, that starting combat music is annoying, but I too like to listen to the sound effects in the game.
I hope that they will take that starting combat music away, because that really is annoying.

You can pretty simple do it on your own...put an empty wav with the name of the combat sound into your data folder.

You forgot to put the "I don't see anything wrong with this game" option.
If I had to pick something, I would say the massive amounts of Skeletons Necropolis can get through farming, and later, in the AB expansion, Conflux.

The music at the start of battle is in the heroes3.snd file, not one of the mp3 files. The files are battle00.wav - battle06.wav and you have to put them in the data folder.
The file I used for testing is the short button click wav file. So I'll make new blank files and upload them.
btw, can anyone think of any other sounds that they think suck?

(who didnot made this sound sweat in the old days)?

Thanks, Binabik! it saves 5 seconds x 3 x 2 x 25 = 12,5 minutes per game.

I have been playing a long time with HOMM3, and I have some bad things that I think make the game just that little bit worse.
Firstly the music that starts when you start a battle, and that music bit goes for maybe 5 seconds maybe more, and it is just annoying as it takes time away, when you could have killed 2 or 3 stacks if your quick enough.
It is just plaing annoying and a waste of time if you ask me
As most of us, I have been playing for a long time with myself and I can sometimes see the overall performance getting lower than usual. But all in all, i'm a fun game.

So is Heroes 3. If you want to look for issues in Heroes 3, curse that "creature of the month" bullsnow. Especially on maps like Sander's Folly.

Sometimes the gameplay is unequal.Ex:me and my friemd were playing the game(he was playing Tower(Solmyr) and i Dungeon)On the second week he got the Titans Curios artifact almost for free.Then his chain lighning was ubeatable and he fought anything on the map so we just quit the game.
