wow.. just wow.. will the menu be animated like the original Warcraft 3?

This sounds really nice, the slow start, the awesome epic part at the middle, and the slow descending part at the end with the soft ending. Really immersive and mood-setting for playing a game!

I think it would also look good in a trailer or an intro for the mod

Hehe, thanks for the commment, Shaul is pretty experienced himself and has been playing piano for around about 20 years :P

The main menu will indeed be animated in Phase 2 of the beta stage, however, Phase 1 will simply have a non-animated background as we are too low on time and we've delayed the beta already for too long.

We may use it for a trailer though, thanks for the suggestion :)

It was originally. I'm not sure what the current modellers are doing right now, but unless King changed his mind on how to do it, it will be (I'm working on a different project because I hate working with Warcraft because the animation system is really weird and it's a huge pain in the *** to test models).

It is really good, but it doesn't sound like its for Warcraft or even Starcraft for that matter. IMHO It needs wardums (lower and louder beat) to add the Warcraft feel and if you going for a in between, add electric guitar/beat

Every game has its own music style. Heck, even if you look back at Warcraft 1 music and compare it to Warcraft 3's, you'll notice quite a difference. So you see, each game will vary a little bit, but in my opinion, this soundtrack still sounds like it fits with the Warcraft universe, and it fits perfectly with my projects lore.

In this modification we want the soundtracks to feel more immersive and atmospheric rather than generic and ambient. Our reasoning for this is that the projects story itself is THE closing of the Warcraft story, it's how we believe the series should end. Warcraft 3 never had much music that was non-ambient.

War-drums would feel too Orcish which is not what we want, we want to create a new theme for the non-racial soundtracks. Choir pieces are present in this soundtrack so it gives it a very WoW-esque feeling, which in my opinion, fits perfectly for the direction we are taking. It might seem unlikely now, but I'm sure once you try the modifications beta and see the art direction etc, you'll agree that it fits quite nicely.

Thanks for the concerns, always great to get constructive feedback.

I like the soundtracks you'd produced very much, they seem like a lot more time was put into them than the stock Warcraft 3 ambient tracks.

I'm really looking forward to this project by the way, as it's really a much more professional approach to the same thing I was trying to do.

I have high expectations for the campaign. =)

Truly epic. Exactly what I would expect from Warcraft IV
