I think the have town is the bigest improvment.. well to be honest it was in the worst shape.. Still I have similar problems like in the Orc one. Some buildings really stand out and the picture doesn't look like one unit (Especially the market place)
On the other hand I think actually see some hauses in it.

I'm very disappointed. It looks... hideous.
"They" made:
and:
So why they can't do something similar as a town screens?

I like the Haven town screen, imo. by far the best one of those I have seen so far (Necropolis, Stronghold, Haven). It has the surrounding environment which is what I miss in the Necropolis one, and it looks somewhat like an actual settlement.

I'm not happy with the perspective on this one.
It seems like every new town screen is from a different stage of development than the previous.
Here everything is so bright, it almost hurts my eyes!

Convert it to Necropolis. 
Marketplace looks so unnatural, like being building from other place and dropped from the sky on random location.

In many ways I like it.
But, as well as necro has too much green, Haven has too much light/bright there, imo. A matter of taste though.
At least they're doing something good

this time, the castle is to small =PP
and yeah, scale seems random and messed up
might have to see the full-screen one though
but yeah, we NEED 3D town screens back in H7.
What about a 180 degree 3D town screen? That way, we avoid every single town being based around a pillar.

3D towns, without static camera --> instead, you can navigate through towns like H6 ones, but you can see differente angles.
I don't know if I explained myselft correctly: something like H5, but being able to move the camera to the west & east & north & south. You would avoid pilars (some could still get them) and we could have a lot of angles to admire them

These town screens suffer from the Heroes IV syndrome - gameplay-related dwellings scattered all around without anything to "glue" them together - like, say, some purely landscape dwellings that will make the whole thing look like a town, not a fort in the middle of nowhere. Sure, it's a vast improvement over the pathetic town windows but they are still far, far behind anything from Heroes III.

omg it's so pretty looking!
It's a damn shame these towns don't have a camera. The artwork itself is purty.

The furthermost house in the small cluster of buildings to the left of the main base doesn't cast a shadow 
EDIT: It's also placed in the middle of the road...
EDIT EDIT: Also ALSO it's a duplicate. At least three other buildings look just the same.

mmm
click to enlarge
I think it does cast a shadow, I see part of the road shadowed. Though I agree on the road thing.
If that is the full town, I see a lot of empty spaces :S

Why is every town shown from different perspective? We look at Haven from far up ,Necro close from front and Stronghold somewhere in between? Heaven buildings are smaller then both Necro and Stronghold ones.

I cna see two possible explanations:
- They are clueless about what they are doing, or
- What we've seen so far are only concept arts and not actual in-game renders

I agree, the Haven town screen looks good.....it looks spacious and clear and it's nice to see the cliff with the background, gives it a feeling of vastness with the statue on the right.....better than the necro and orc ones (which seem too much like H4)

No, these would be the actual in-game screens.
I still like the Haven screen, but I do agree there are some shadow issues going on. The left-most building of the castle looks like it's actually hovering above ground.

All the new town screens which have already been shared with us are quite disappointing as they are not beautiful and neat at all. The previous ones are much more enjoyable for me. IMO, of course.
