That's what BeYo_OnD said about Stronghold and gameplay on the blog:
Quote:
To be a bit more precise, the issues I saw are more on the gameplay side. The artwork for Stronghold (which is the faction we played with) is very good, probably the best of the 4 factions we've seen so far.
The Skillwheel is my nr.1 issue. It is very much Heroes 6 in the form of a Skillwheel. It has some novel features too but I don't think they necessarily help.
The UI is very intrusive, it follows you everywhere, Townscreen, Heroes, Adventure map, etc.
And other problems, can't detail tho.
So not only Stevie thinks there are gameplay issues. ;P

Those specifics at least don't have me too worried. The UI I feel is something that can at most be easily tweaked and at least be something more of a "side" issue. As for the skill wheel, I didn't have too high of expectations for it anyhow. Sadly, it is a large part of the game, but at least there will be options and the chance of it being improved over the next several months/beta. Interested to hear what else was noticed when the time comes.

Was the random skills option implemented yet? Did you ever ask them why they considered not implementing it before we nagged them about it?

Stevie's comments about the skill system are worrying, as it is a most important feature. Did you play with random skills on our off? I imagine that makes a difference, or are you not allowed to tell?
The UI I can live with, as I don't think it's that important.

Hi good people
So I got some 650 pages to run through. Than cannot be done for me atm. I am sure you have talked at lenght, somewhere, about these things, but i dare to ask nevertheless. Glad if someone will enlighten me:
- What is the main worries with what we know at the moment? A remark about "random skills" missing leaves me scared to death.
- Do we know anything about release more than "2015"?
- Will we get the heroes 5 kinda skill tree, that is: Endless replayability, and sim turns? And random start faction/hero?
I only play multiplayer, as you maybe could tell from my concerns.

yet Galaad, Stevie and Verriker arent banned. How funny.
well I guess the difference is your recent posts are (no offense) usually full of nothing but contempt and vitriol fired at fellow members here,
but all I try to do these days is argue the facts and lampoon Erwin, and only in retaliation for his own trolling of the Might and Magic franchise lol

@Galaad, @Stevie
If I may ask you some questions:
1. Did you were forced to sign NDA with your own blood?
2. Who did you meet at Ubisoft HQ? We mainly hear about Erwan but who else was there?
3. What bribes gifts did you get from Erwan? 
4. Which aspects of game were, according to your knowledge, still under construction and which one were more like set in stone?
5. Which factions did you play? Only Stronghold or maybe something else? Also one map or more?

The build we played didn't include randomness. And I don't see how randomness would benefit the gameplay of the Skillwheel when they implemented it like that, but it would sure bring some nice Heroes 5 flavor to it and I think that would be good. Not enough to wash the Heroes 6 taste away, but a start at least...

It's good to hear that you liked stronghold. Gives hope that the stronghhold fans among us won't suffer like the necro ones did.
Skill system on the other hand is worring, If it resembles more H6 then other games I fear the final result.

Did you voice these concerns and, if so, did they respond in a way that alleviated some of your concerns?

I gave some suggestions regarding the visual representation of the Skillwheel, but the mechanics behind it are pretty much set in stone I'm afraid.

You should wait for Galaad to make his thread and he'll answer these. I'll probably make one too and tell you how things went from my perspective but I'm kinda waiting on Arnaud to send me the interviews first.
