I bought this over December, but I haven't even installed it yet. Must get to it soon.

Looks like more delays are expected.
(I am not too bothered because to me the game is fine since I don't play online it just needs an expansion and that would be great)
Hello Heroes,
as we stated there is a dedicated to the game team working very hard on the patch, so don't worry, it will be released once it passed all of the technical tests. Unfortunately, it is not coming in time unnounced previously, but still our intention to support the game remains untouched.
While it is not a mystery that a patch is tested before release, we can not underestimate the importance of every small correction as it can create a bigger bug if not developed/tested correctly. When we are talking about a game as complex with a content as rich as Heroes VI is, every small correction can potentially create a bigger trouble. That is what happened with the patch 1.3: it can't be released now as some network issues have been reported.

Ok so patch 1.3 went live last night. I haven't checked it out yet but with the patch news a some would say surprising bit of news pooped up.
Black Hole is no longer working on Heroes VI. Instead it has fallen to Limbic Entertainment. BH and Ubi parted ways in quite a bad way which so it seems is not rare with developers and Ubi.
Here is some stuff
"We would like to take this opportunity to confirm that Black Hole is no longer working on Heroes VI, and I am very happy to introduce you to the studio we are now collaborating with: Limbic Entertainment, from Germany. You might have noticed this name from the credits of Heroes VI: Limbic worked with Black Hole during the final stages of Heroes VI’s development. Our commitment to improve and enrich the game remains unaltered, and Limbic has joined us to support the post-launch of Heroes VI. Limbic’s team are experts on the Heroes’ system, so it's only a matter of getting up to speed on a different portion of the project."

Downloaded the patch last night.. luckily only 52megs
Sjoe! when last was i online...i cant even remember.
Really didn't know about Black hole...wow..wonder how's the rest of Heroes 6 going to be like.
so wats the verdict overall, i see they are still improving the game with patches... but HOMM 3 is still king
Honestly HOMM 3 is a good memory but its lack of features is beginning to show a lot. I think this series has really evolved into something very different with each game showing a lot of promise.
I think HOMM 5 is probably better in more ways then not and I think HOMM 6 has so much potential to really be something great. I like it but it needs more of everything, more units, more maps, more skills, higher level cap, more artifacts etc etc.

Yeah until you needed Expert Earth Magic to cast mass slow lol and you ended up getting something useless like Eagle Eye lol.
Which one did you find lacks variety, I mentioned 3 of them
I have been playing Heroes 2 over the past couple days. Heroes 3 really wasn't that different compared to number 2 in amount of changes / improvements that Heroes 1 - 2 or 3 - 4 or 4 - 5 or 5 - 6 had. Heroes 3 was the most un unique one there lol
