The greatest joke of all is thinking Blizzard would care if it's unplayable for thousands of people. You've given them your money already, they no longer care about you.
Basically this happens when you throw a bunch of people at a project. For most cases whenever you come across a map not working it is the result of functions just being rewritten from scratch. (Worth noting usually in a much more modern and efficient way). The problem with this is that the pre-existing headers and libraries that are not being included/called/referenced properly causing things like buildings etc. to not appear. There is a line between laziness and a task being so daunting that it seems almost unfeasible. Anyone working on this is going to look for a shortcut in getting it done, especially when it's more or less written from an archaic language by today's standards. The thing that most people don't understand is that It's a ton of work to tackle... Like an absolutely ludicrous amount for a very small team or a few individuals that would need to have good communication and be on the same page to get everything done. (Worth noting that it's almost definitely a financial loss for blizzard to devote the resources and time to get it fixed properly.) I want it fixed just long anyone else, but this is going to take a long time most likely.
@@riskreforged I would argue at this point it would still be worth it for Blizzard in the long run because they simply NEED to earn points with their customers after all the disasters they've been through. Sure, maybe they'll technically make a financial loss on warcraft 3 sales, but they'd make a NET profit from other products off of good will from the community if they just proved themselves more.
In legion TD 11.1B, the entire game crashes after each game. This is maybe the most annoying bug out of all of them for me - Because you're going to spend minutes after each game just rebooting Warcraft 3.
Blizzard also does changes they don't mention in the patch notes that's super vital. They... Also say some things are fixed when they aren't. And lastly, classic HD means they touched the games model base and unit skin system which was added in reforged which was broken AF and nothing good can ever come out of a newbie Blizzard team touching anything related to models and reforged because they don't know what they're doing and that's how you get a legion TD with the entire cast of models being invisible.
Less players enjoying free custom maps === More potential customers for other Blizzard games like WoW, Starcraft 2, etc. Not to mention they retconned much of the original Warcraft 3 story and characters trough WoW, so moving people away from that game also moves them away from the legendary lore. Think about it, one of the main reasons WoW took off was because of Warcraft 3, so now that they want to do WoW 2.0, they can't do too much until the shadow of Warcraft 3 still watches over it.
i wish they would just give us back the 2003 version that actually worked. just revert everything to a pre-reforged state. i don't want any of this crap, i just want everything exactly as it was when i bought the goddamn game.
I hope bilizard see this vedio and Start fix it but this never going to happen as usual and the new environment is veeeery bad I didn't love it hope make vedio about it too to fix it too
I don't get , blizzard hire some community members and they will gladly fix the game!! Im sure 100% most of them would be fine with a small pay even if they were gonna be paid adequately it would help repair blizzard reputation this is a long term investment as more people overtime would flock to play warcraft 3 and from time to time some returning players too. Personally if it was me and had the capabilities of modding the game to fix it I would do so and with im ready to do so with no money just get the game working!!.
Don't give yourself away like that, The only time blizzard deserved free work was when 1.32 wasn't even released yet. After that they crossed the line.
@@StormKnight1 fancy seeing you here friend. Blizzard would never look for somebody to work from the community so the possibility itself is impossible we can only hope and dream about what a magnificent version of warcraft 3 can be made. Btw whats your thoughts on 2.0?
@pandaprewmaster325 My thoughts on 2.0 is that I was excited for about 2 hours until I started learning that there is going to be so many more issues that we're going to have to ... not just report to Blizzard but spoonfeed to blizzard, and then cross our fingers that maybe, just maybe they'll fix it correctly. So I'm pretty tired I don't know, Warcraft 3 community edition is starting to look more appealing every day.
Very nice report! People / Communities like you are super important for the game
Thanks we appreciate that.
Thank you! We have fun and enjoy the game so it makes sense to update with what we see/know.
Breaking old maps and not even adding any new functions for custom maps :(
Releasing a patch like this on a 20 year old game that completely and totally nukes it is absolutely MENTAL.
It's been interesting!

It's a sad state affairs atm

This does seem to be the case. It is a HUGE amount of work and we are hoping things can keep getting done. Thanks for the comment!

Lot's of reports of people crashing after each game. Hopefully we see a fix soon!

Yeah it's not ideal
not monetizable in a way that allows for $90 mounts at current. new blizz is really just death and decay
Yeah dang

Hero Wars League has the same issue. I hope it can be fixed ASAP 🙏
We can hope!
multiplayer just completely broke about an hour ago. you can't get into mp atm
Yeah lots of reports in our discord about this!
Blizzard is probably using junior developers who are clueless and way to few people on it. It's very funny either way.
That is the running joke!
Can you keep the Mac players in mind? I think there’s more of us than people think. It’s been down since Oct. 4.
Yes! I try to remember that a portion of players are on Mac
Loving the WC3 updates
i wish they would just give us back the 2003 version that actually worked. just revert everything to a pre-reforged state. i don't want any of this crap, i just want everything exactly as it was when i bought the goddamn game.
amen. Stop trying so hard to disappoint us and cut your losses, soulless Blizzard
At least it looks similar but yes it's unfortunate :/
R2S broken is so stupid ...
:(
well they just released a hptfix for this bug maybe blizzard just downloaded the coding
LOL
Cover the new bad environment I didn't love it at all we need old one
Interesting idea!
I hope bilizard see this vedio and Start fix it but this never going to happen as usual and the new environment is veeeery bad I didn't love it hope make vedio about it too to fix it too
I hope so as well

Or just give proven community devs access to code and let them work on patches themselves - Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition started doing that.
@@MadPutz thats possible but it means making wc3 open source
