I must say that the resource allocation for this game is apparently much lower than H6. H6 looked like flagship (even though game failed in many other aspects). This one looks much more like an indie game (albeit a big one) than prime product.
However, there is hope as game-play in my opinion is already superior to that of a H6.
Downside is that amount of bugs/glitches indeed seems high for something that should release in 3 months, and UBI patch track record is not good.

Or the remaining skills greyed out in the Skillwheel, just like aurelian skillwheel did?
You can see your learned skills on the left. Hovering the cursor over each one shows you the level at which the skill currently is (Novice, Expert etc). You also have access to the wheel so you can see what you have so far, and what you can learn.

wouldn't fall victim to my own hype if I were you, even Heroes 6 had potential to be the best Heroes game, and yet basically none of its massive problems were dealt with from the beta to the release lol
very sad but very very very true. the problem is ubi not giving enough time/resources for this game! they just don't want to.
and indeed i still remember the hype for heroes 6 and how it turned out.
yet i have a glimmer of hope,
this^
id fire up the old h6 demo before id fire up the actual game, its just better; and thats not saying much.
yet i also have a glimmer of hope, for some unknown reason. this beta is too buggy for me to actually play, but from what little i have been able to i do see some potential. it seems like ubi understands a little better now that their target demographic is a bit older. i just hope theyve figured out that multiplayer strategy games must be bug free. nobody would play chess if there was a potential for the pieces to function differently each game.

I just replay Heroes 3 today and i notice my hero earning experience so faster... The scale of experience has been modified in H 5.5, i m asking if they are always going to do the same mistake again, ie one level for one obelisk... Sick.. I already blame about diplomacy and wish they could hear me, not sure i have decent solution, but i won t buy the game if there s something broken as diplomacy...

That's why I like the option in H6 which allows you to customize hero leveling speed/experience gained: normal, fast, fastest. The latter one is particularly useful if you play a one-map skirmish, because level 30 is well within reach, whereas normally you wouldn't even get close. I hope H7 will feature the same option. On 'fastest' a hero can easily gain 2 levels at once when visiting an exp boost (this is usually at the start).

Report 2
The amount and severity of bugs has led my commanding officer to bring out the ultimatum: This is not a beta but an alpha and he has ordered immediate evacuation of all forces. I repeat: all forces are to evacuate immediately. There are just too many bugs.

it's been pretty obvious for quite some time. I just got the idea for the joke so...
I don't think anyone expects the AI to be anything but abysmal hence no one really reacts to it. It's been mentioned a couple of times but it's just not surprising in any way.

Personally I was of the opinion that this beta was alpha since Dies Irae posted that original massive bug report.

Me think Ubi not introduce balance during Beta.
They could make more money in introducing simuilteanous turn in H3...

pretty sure i have mentioned it way earlier. wtf are my posts invisible????? the random skill system works nice tho. the only thing i would like is the restriction of having only one perk per rank.
that would spice things up although i handicap myself there.
if you know you can choose anything you want from the skill wheel then the randomness stop serving its purpose:/
also heal does ressurect a certain amount of troops doesn't it? no saving needed there.

It should have been obvious since the beginning when they announced what it would contain. Insiders and councilors got to play a build that also had 2 factions, also had 2 maps, was even better than this current one on many levels - graphically better, smoother performance, tester tools/cheats, more map objects, increased creature variety - and it was called an Alpha! The only major things this "Beta" build brought was the menu and some notion of replayability as a consequence. But that's kinda it.

I don't really understand why they even have a closed beta since it's:
1. Not really a beta. We aren't allowed to test all factions and the beta is soon over.
2. It really sucks as a demo. The game is unpolished and unfinshed.
I can't see how the closed beta is helping the game in any way, shape or form.

A marketing stratagem for pre-ordering, which as I see, turned rather unsuccessful

For me, one main problem is the AI turn, almost always near to Heroes Of Might and Magic 5, sad.
