Minor problem with my Beta
Hey all - this might have been answered already, I'm not sure. I did a little searching and couldn't find the answer.
I got my H6 beta working this morning and after a few minutes on the campaign I wanted to try out the "multiplayer." I was brought to the "hero creation" screen with no details or information about what the purpose was. How do I get back to that screen? I built 2 heroes (one an exact copy of the other because I didn't know what was going on) and it seems like I can now only use those heroes and they're even the same faction.
Sorry if this is a stupid question or the fix is really obvious, I haven't been able to find an answer.

For playing multiplayer you have to create an "Avatar", speak a hero.
In this window you can create some.
When you wanna start playing you can choose one of these made heroes, it's faction is the faction wich you will play in the game.
For your opponents you have also to make some heroes.
Just experiment a little and soon you will fully understan it.
BTW this isn't a problem but a new feature of the game.

I actually had the same problem, so ... if you DON'T want to use that hero, but just want to go back to using the custom heroes, how do you do that? Because I made a Haven hero, and now I can only choose him for myself AND all my opponents, and while it's fun and all to make a hero, I don't want to have to make one for every faction and class just so I can choose those.

I also have a problem with that: how can you use now that Griffin sword from the tut? I says it only works with pavel or however he's named. Do I have to create a hero whoose name is Pavel or what?

To create a new hero you have to click the Slava avatar in the main menu, it's not hard to figure it out from there. Dynasty artifacts are available only after you encounter them in the campaign, uncertain if you need to enable them manually on each of your created heroes in the hero screen or you can do that from ingame(there is an artifact section in the hero screen, the middle of the three buttons if memory serves).

You should be able to use Griffin Sword on any Might Hero, and Staff of the Tides on any Magic hero. That is, unless things changed since private beta.

You have to assign them to the hero during the creation and you have to activate Dynasty Bonus when you create a game to be able to use them.

That's the only way to have other factions on your map. The lack of random button is kinda ... surprising.

The multiplayer set up was a mess. I really hope they fix it before release.

Ah, this was the answer I needed. Thanks. I didn't know how to get back to the creation screen to generate more heroes, so I could only play multi with 6 Sanctuary factions... how boring.
Even though it's tedious and strange to have to generate a hero for each faction to enable that faction, in general I like the idea of customizing heroes so I'm okay with it. Plus, it's still beta of course!

Don't worry too much about it, it won't be like that in the release  Also pretty sure there will be a random faction option.

Ah ok. The closed beta had the campaign heroes for each faction as default, so thought it was because I had created my own hero I had somehow overruled that, but guess it was changed in the open beta.
