I saw a game hosting the Brave New World map. Did they seriously re-use maps from H3? That's bloody awesome!

After playing Kiril's campaign I have found a way that Ubi can redeem itself in my eyes:
I simply need Sarah as a playable dynasty hero and I might actually forgive all the squeaking and chirping I am going through right now 
Damn, from a graphical / art / unit design point of view the game is amazing. Flaming angels ftw!

Something I miss is the special hero ability that gives extra luck, which was in the Beta. Why was that removed?
Not removed, renamed. Fate = luck (pretty much). Though from what I have seen 1 point is not the same. 2 fate doesn't add much luck from all I have experienced.

Is it only me, or did Mission 2 of the Sanctuary campaign take AGES to complete? Well, atleast you get a cool looking Naga hero. ;D
Tedious.

Can someone tell me why Cerberus is the least produced unit among the core units in Inferno. It is the one that dies very easily, it must be the one that is produced more.
I am playing Kiril's campaign and don't find Inferno that weak, but of course I am just beginning tro learn the game, haven't played other races. I think giving Breeders "resurrect demons" ability, making their ranged attack's range "full" as the imps fly in their range attack and imps, contrary to arrows, would see their enemy as they are living and increasing the standart production numbers of cerberus would make them better significantly.

I am loving the game. During 1.4 I had restricted myself to duels, the very short time i had left since I was unable to play for most of its duration. And now playing the campaigns and trying new missions, it is a great experience. Take orc mission 2, that is where I really appreciated the new features. A jungle map with plenty of water nevigation, plenty of towns and enemy heroes. Finally it is a joy to play a water map, no losing your movement when boarding a ship nor do you waste half a stack(or rather stack micromanagement so that your weaker stack is small in numbers  ), no arranging caravans or multiple hero chaining so that I can combine armies and the town portal system has significantly reduced the need for backtracking. Missions feel more complex now with objectives changing or being added as they come and I like that. Some humourous moments too, in many ways it brings to mind the Armageddon's Blade Christian campaign  Foolhardy Waywardness was it? It has been so long. As for bugs there certainly are many of them but frankly there is only a couple that worry me, rest are no big deal.
Edit:
I also love the fact that the AI likes to keep me on my toes. I do not fear of losing but it is hard to make it out of battles unscathed, there are casualties and they add up

You are just happy not to have bugged orc map 2  . Had to happen with my favorite faction.
But agreed, overall maps seem bigger, richer, and more complex then I am used to in this series. A plus to map maker(s) on that side.

Aside from the bugs the game is really nice. I have already played 23 hours, love the units, the art& design is simply excellent, the music is amazing, every unit's so unique, the AI plays different every time you attack the same army. I am not that much irritated by the town windows to my surprise, altough I love 3D magnificent town screens in H5.
But there are downsides. I don't like is the skill tree, it is very limited and small. I have read they said "there are at least 500 skills to choose from" are they invicible in the campaigns, or what? Every race has the same skill tree, there are no race-specific skills and spells are not that interesting. Most of the skills are "increase/decrease smt. for x turn". I expected more original things.

I'm still waiting for someone to turn 'Creatures Lost/Defeated' into 'Battlefield Casualties'
and 'X dies' into 'X perish'

According to the bug's thread, someone has complained that Sveltana's voice acting was bad. Who was that? When I played the beta, one of the few things that really 'WOW'ed me was that, I thought for once the actor did not sound like some B-rank actor reading from a book.

@alci: Agreed, I immediately suspected a troll when I read the complaint about Svetlana's voice acting

I know what you mean, it is either 100% hit or a miss.
In my case they hit exactly the correct nerve, I was too fed up with the cartoony designs from H5 and King's Bounty.
I was sold by the gothic horror elements (look at that Pit Lord!), the high amount of female units (that are not oversexualized for a change!) and the generally darker tones and increased sharpness in the art.
Keeping my hopes up for those town screens!

Most english voices are great, the french voices on the other hand ... Orcs sound really handsome, it's just wrong

Well I certainly don't think British undead Meryl Streep Analsvet's Svetla Sveltana's voice is bad,
but I don't like her (or that bird for that matter) as a character.
Edit: Granted, I've only played the demo.
Either could potentially die for all I know, thus redeeming themselves in my eyes

I actually disagree, I think Sveltana's actress leaves much room for improvement. She has a very good voice, but her diction and emotion is way off, as if reading the lines in a wild hurry with no voice director for guidance.
One example is Anastasya's first cutscene where the line reads "Not you. Slava!", which calls for a short pause after the period. She, however, pronounces this as "Not you, Slava!" as though Slava is the one she's speaking to.
Most other actors like Anton and Anastasya did a fine job. 100 times better than the original Heroes V - I shudder to think of that stuff.
