ToH HEROES 7 -- Ready
I'm excited as much as the rest of you for this new H7 -- I hope it will be good. Will be buying it on release. Plan to play the campaigns and such, then jump into multiplayer.
ToH is now reopened for H7 multiplayer, and the site has been updated to reflect it. For now, it will be free challenge & main rankings games, but we will see how popular the multi is first before things like subtournaments and clans are considered. And the custom maps page will also be available for those who create decent multi maps for tourney games.

Don't want to spoil the surprise, but, wouldn't it be wiser to wait until it is fully patched? It has been announced the first patch will be about 3 GB large, and that is just one of many.

Still, there's not better timing for this to happen. And they're supposed to include Multiplayer in their post release support package, so I see no problem here.
Looking forward to it.

That's a touch worrying that multiplayer is not going to be there on release since often major additions like that tend to drag on and not get added as soon as companies say they will. (Diablo III pvp comes to mind)
Still, I did see that bit about the map editor being a focus point for them and the video they showed of it made it look pretty user friendly, so that is very encouraging. Will be keeping an eye on things and looking to jump back into HOMM if the MP is decent

Most of us will be fooling around with the campaigns and learning the ropes again, so I don't see us jumping into multiplayer right away. But the option is kept open from day 1 just in case. UBI's track record on multiplayer for this game hasn't been that good, so I can see some improvements/patches coming beyond the release. No doubt balancing issues will come into play as well. But TOH is all about the excuse of playing another, and having a place to record the game and see your stats.

Hey Scream, when actual gaming starts going on in the multiplayer world of Heroes7, you register on TOH, and make sure your opponent is registered as well. Then you submit your win or loss on the site, and it gets recorded/ranked. I have not tried the multiplayer section yet, but hopefully it is user-friendly, and the rooms have 'headers' where one can put 'TOH game' on there.
Ahh, the good old days of microsoft gaming zone....

Miss the Old Days!
I have high hopes for this game. I would love to get all the old gang back like the old days. Miss playing seriously. I hope this game is more molded around H3 and H5

My thoughts
I'm really enjoying the campaigns right now, though some of it can get annoying, or the funny 'talking heads', but the depth of the skillsets, the adventure, animation, combat, magic, sheer variety of creatures, all seem great. Its possible that the pure magic user could become overpowered, but its too early to tell.

The Laptop I am looking to get has an Intel 5th Gen Core i7-5500U 2.4Ghz (4MB Cache, Turbo Boost up to 3.0GHz)
My question is in the minimum system requirements it says it needs an i5 3.2 Ghz processor to run?
Is i7 considered higher even tho the processor is not 3.2 etc?

I have the same processor and the game works really well (it has never crashed!), so I'd expect the same thing from your laptop. Oh, and I have a GeForce 840M and game runs on max settings.

Thanks!
--------------------------------
btw... what is the preffered mode of communication to find opponents nowadays? Is there a list somewhere of skype accounts to add? I am assuming there is still nothing like the gaming zone that has showed up?
*** Hmm... noone frequents this board very often... been couple days and no posts or replies.  This is only way I know of to meet and arrange games.....

Though I finished the campaigns, I have not been able to start a multiplayer game. When I go to the game lobby, it stays 'searching' and no rooms are found. Not sure if its my end or not. But the good old days of microsoft gaming zone and user-friendly rooms seems non-existent right now.

That proves only one thing -- with every iteration of homm by UBI, they make the multiplayer an afterthought... or at least take a year or so to perfect the multiplayer side of the game.
(or force the community to make their own version years later that is much better eg. Heroes 5.5.

Maybe we should all learn from this and quit buying there products... But everyone rushes out to buy them so they can play the silly campaigns and that only re-enforces to UBI that they can make money buy making single player games.
