The so called "no-loss" concept (whole game) is wrong and stupid.

Basically, if you post anything in such an insulting manner - even if what you say is right, and you meant well - you will be labelled as a troll, because this is exactly what trolls do - creating topics with the intent of drawing people into prolonged, often personal arguments that actually are far-far removed from the original topic. And frankly, your later comments indicate just that - you are going out of your way to simply say "No, I didn't!" to anyone who practically quotes what you said. This looking more and more like the famous "Argument" from Monty Python...

How can I insult a CONCEPT, son? I didn't say "everybody who does no-loss is stupid". I EVEN said black on white that it's logical and natural for the player to try and to want to do no loss.

Who is the troll here? Go get your glasses.

clever ways

LOL. If you think killing legions of bear with 1 assassin is clever and that casting mana accelerator+phantom inquisitor obsessively it means you just have a very poor definition for the word "clever".

You think HOMMIII was unbalanced, too?

Yes, and, just as a random fact, most people I know of play with custom rules. Even championships are played with custom rules by people because the game is broken. (Necropolis skeletons overpowerd, Diplomacy hero vs No diplomacy hero =gg, and these are just 2 examples out of dozens)
Heroes 4 was probably the most worthy attempt to make the game balanced and fair. Heroes 5 fixed necromancy but made it possible to beat 100.000 pheonix (lvl7) with only 2 vampires.

I am growing tired of having to explain myself to people in dire need of both logic and strategy courses. The fact remains that Kings Bounty (fun as it is, overall) remains a game that presents no challange whatsoever to expert strategy players. As soon as you put your hands on overpowered spells and units, the game is over. What is the point of playing the game thereafter? To see the SCORE? To see a number on the screen? In a game that is single-player? I find it interesting to analyse scores at the end of online Warcraft 3 games, but in singleplayer not so much.

Again you with calling other people `son` , and accusing all on this tread for bad eyesight. Is there anything we should know about you tiberiu? Like is your father calling you daughter all the time, or you wear jar type of glasses and half blind as bat?

And you DONT have problem with players doing no loss, but call them all stupid and retarded , then accept custom rules for championships but NO for personal play at home. Then asking why is no loss even choice of some players, it just IS. Some ppl get game and right from start google cheats for it, here players invest time to go thru game to see what it offers not for number on screen. As for your Warcraft3 online games i bet you`re real pleasure to play with that personality.

Don't call me "son". Even if you are 50, which I doubt. I am 34.

I have them on, thank you very much (contacts are just... weird). I directly quote your post: I discourage people to cry so much about how they can't do No loss in WOTN. Get more strategy. - by this, you imply people who do no loss don't know strategy... and a few paragraphs above, you call the concept of no loss "retarded".
And then you continue to call people "son" in a derogatory manner, even after multiple people explained to you how this is condescending.

Only a troll does that. You are well aware of what you are doing - please go on and continue, if you like, but we all know the reason you started this thread is not to provide any advice to the developers, but to troll the no-loss veterans of the game, and get your kicks by annoying people. Why that amuses some people, I have no idea, I'd find it poor entertainment, but you do obviously enjoy it since you take so much time to reply and insult every single person who replied to you...

I do recommend a place called 4chan for you... they'd welcome you with open arms.

No son. Quite the contrary in fact, but you need logical understanding to grasp this. How many classess of school do you have?

I am talking in a friendly manner. Didn't you ever hear priests or elder people talk like this?

I did nothing of the like, you are a liar. And I am not payed by Katauri to get their games right. However I reported some bugs myself.You can report my posts if you think that, there are moderators who will take care of this. No need to rant son.

I do recommend a place called 4chan for you... they'd welcome you with open arms.

And I recommend a university for you and some logic books. Time to update my ignore list..

Do a no-loss game with no reloads. Then I'll be impressed.

No reload challenges can be fun too, though combining with no-loss is pretty frustrating. The idea that you'd have to start the game over just for having some mage cast fire arrow at a bad time is... ugh.

From the moment I saw the topic I knew this will drag along quite nicely, but overall you guys have to admit the moderators are pretty laid back here: people justifying pirating the game on the official forum, luck of respect for fellow player/poster, … yeah the more things change the more stay the same.
So let me put 2 cents here: I chose to buy the game and after hard day at work I will chose to go no-loss on impossible (well I will try it) and I don’t give a damn what everybody else is thinking. Everybody is entitled to their opinions; there is a matter how you come across with it.

Restart game , why ? You have autosave in castles, and after traveling to new islands. No need to new game, just reload last autosave from getting to island you are currently at.

Yea, I get you. But what's wrong with justifying piracy anyway? You have to test your car before you buy it, right? Just to make sure it works, that it... it doesn't have, you know.. bugs.

As for the lack of respect. Everybody gets as much respect as they deserve.

I tried to do no-loss too, but the Necromancer nearly killed all my units, which was a happy encounter for me.

What I argued here was something different then what most understood - and I am responsible for what I write, not for what the less intelectually inclined understand. For the 1000th time, it is perfectly OK for the player of the game to TRY to not lose any units. The fact that the Game lets him be successful in this is the problem. A problem of difficulty. What is the point of calling a difficulty "Impossible", if it can be done without ever losing even a single unit the whole game? The problem is that this is hugely boring for anybody who wants a true, real, hard challange. Being able to do no-loss whole game just proves the game is extremely easy. Absurdly easy - not to mention they give you infinite money, infinite xp, infinite crystals and runes.
