MMH5.5 is an unofficial expansion pack for HOMM5 Tribes of the East (standalone) or HOMM5 Complete. The pack will include many new adventure objects, new larger battlefields, new heroes, new classes, new specializations, new skills, new artifacts, new adventure spells, new HD textures and a greatly improved RMG with more than 60 'visualized' Templates. The AI is much more intelligent and calculated much faster. Balance is also greatly improved both for small competitive multiplayer maps as well as crazy XXXL maps with countless epic battles vs Neutrals and AI.
Everything that needed fixing in original and expansions, this mod fixed. Faster leveling up and in game skill tree, re-balancing magic schools are one of them.
For me, Heroes of Might and Magic 5 itself is 10/10 - additional great mod like this - YES please!
A fairly decent, if not the best, H5 mod out there.
No need to cover everything in detail as many others already said the same, but here're a few remarks:
+ All vanilla campaigns are here
+ No more ******** hard-to-get ultimates
+ Lots of well-designed new/remade/repurposed perks, more attention to Shatter Magic
+ 3 hero classes per race -- more outplay variety
+ New mechanics, specifically town governance
+ Significantly expanded artifact variety, artifact rebalancing
+ Careful and lore-friendly updates to spellbook, magic guilds and race alignments to certain magic schools
+ Very solid unit balancing, no stupid changes just for the sake of 'em
+ In-game manual
+ Long-term development with steady improvement of the game over time.
- Too many heroes per faction (6 per class, 18 per race) which leads to rather pointless specializations like increased weekly creature growth
- Some poor choices in terms of hero models/portraits, but who can make new *nicely fitting* models for each hero anyway? Some new portraits don't fit the game aesthetics, same can go to certain Red Haven heroes
- Minor language issues here and there, which can be fixed with some help from the community
incredible mod, a must play!
this mod give a new breath to the game, much more variety of playstyle, more balance, love it! still has updates! epic.
Epic!
Only good for multiplayer, the AI changes have resulted in enormous army growth for the computer players, meaning you will sooner or later lose.
Apart from that, the balance changes are perfect for multiplayer, just avoid single-player.
Ressurection of the game
Oustanding! ^^
buggiest **** ever, don't waste your time by playing this, you never know when you will not able to continue your game due to weird bugs caused by amateur coding skills
