Hmmm I have 600 spacebucks on XBLA and could get 600 more to get this... I sort of want to wait and see if we get a Steam release though... also I'd have to buy 800 spacebucks to get this... fucking spacebucks....

 

[Gassey]

Very keen to see how the art looks. Must have been a mammoth effort.

 

[Gowans]

Can't wait to put some time into this, thing this is gona be a game that the Mrs is gona hog the time with.

Really interested in how the online goes.

Indeed it was. Every artist at Capy was working on it

It's a pretty large game filesize-wise, all because theres THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of frames of animation in HD.

Really interested in how the online goes.

Me too I really hope people give online a shot. The battle system really shines when you have 2 good human players going mono e mono.

 

[vixlar]

I see Capy is recieving a lot of praises. Some Capy games you recommend?

 

[Darg]

Liking the screens, It's might and magic so i'll most likely get this, now for a remake of might and magic 1-8 series (mostly number 6).

 

[Tailzo]

Local & Online Multiplayer (1v1 or 2v2)

I'm buying this

Critter Crunch on PSN has almost a religious following. They haven't put out other games than Clash of Heroes and Critter Crunch (to my knowledge). Small team and they take their time making their games high quality.

Sword & Sworcery EP for iPad which i hear is great, and someday I suppose I'll get to play on my iPod Touch. <shakes fist>

Very excited to buy this game again. Critter Crunch was also an under appreciated masterpiece that people should check out. Fantastic game design.

you can play:

1 player campaign
1 vs AI
1 vs 1 local
1 vs 1 online
2 vs AI local
2 vs 2 local
2 vs 2 online

I just like listing it like that cause it makes it seem crazy

That's exactly what I wanted. Me and my wife have a lot of fun playing co op, 1vs 1 is ok too, but if one of us starts to beat the other easely... well we stop playing

The new coop mode is really a *new* mode. It's not just 2 players crammed into the exact same gameplay. The board is much larger, and each player on a team gets their own units... and they can only move their own units...

It's a bit more puzzle-y in some ways than the traditional game, but we've been playing the crap out of it here at Capy

 

[Kafel]

Damn, I've just seen one of my online friends playing this.

please send me a code CW

 

[bubnbob]

Is there anything new added to the campaign from DS? I raped the DS ver in all holes and did everything available... while I dont mind doing it again, curious if theres more. Are the strategies the same or did things get mixed up?

Spoiler

Yes this is probably answered but I am keeping the thread active

The core campaign is the same from DS to XBLA/PSN. However, here's a few of the changes...

- all the shitty, useless units were redone from scratch, and now they all are very viable unit options. A couple of them, imo, are now the best units in the game.
- all the imbalanced attacks, defenses, hero spells and artifacts were fixed
- scrapped about 40% of all the artifacts and replaced them with better/more balanced ones
- added multiplayer-only artifacts you unlock as you rank up
- rebalanced many of the boss fights and harder battle sequences.
- made HD art

 

[vall03]

everytime I see this thread, it makes me sad that I still dont have the DS version...

 

[Diseased Yak]

Played and loved the DS version.

Will buy PSN copy as soon as it's up. Can't wait!

Wow. How many artists do you have at Capy?

 

[Suzzopher]

20% off for PS+ in Europe too Can't wait. The DS version is one of my favourite games on DS.

I was thinking about picking up the DS version, because of the I saw it for 5 pounds but these changes sound too good to pass on the HD version.

Love your guys games and I will pick this up on Day 1.

 

[Llyranor]

Wait, so 2p co-op online is only 2v2 PvP? Can't 2vAI online?

 

[Cromulent_Word]

Wait, so 2p co-op online is only 2v2 PvP? Can't 2vAI online?

You can't 2 v AI online. We crammed it as full as possible, but there was a limit to what we could get in.

Wow. How many artists do you have at Capy?

8 artists worked on Clash HD. It was quite an art-beast.

Not that it really matters, cause we mostly just want people to play the game... but buying the XBLA/PSN version for $15 supports Capy more than the DS version at almost any price

 

[Neckbeard69]

My body is ready...

The missus practically destroyed the DS-Lite playing this compulsively, so I'm looking forward to that on the PS3.

 

[Lyonaz]

Ooh nice! Always wanted to play this, but it got delayed to hell.
Will buy it tomorrow, just like Critter Crunch on day one.

PS. Can we hope for Move support patch?

 

[Cromulent_Word]

not gonna happen. sorry

Awesome. Hopefully this means that the early parts of chapter 2 are less painful!

 

[blame space]

points bought.. cannot wait for this release

 

[Cromulent_Word]

We overhauled Godric's hero spell. Its now BOTH defensive and offensive (absorbs hits for 1 round, using remaining power as an attack the nex), meaning you can finish fights with it. Speeds up Haven a lot, and gives Godric a great tool via his hero spell.

Has the music been upgraded? Would love to hear those tunes in a bit better than DS quality.

Seriously. ;___;

but this just reminds me, I still have some trophies left in Critter Crunch to get. Beating all the levels in story mode for instance (stupid challenge modes where you have to prevent the eggs from being ate or combo's and the puzzles are all I have left though).

 

[Cromulent_Word]

I only have a tiny amount of XBLA codes, but i'll give a couple away via GAF CONTEST on or around launch day.

 

[El-Suave]

I'm really curious if the balancing changed the endgame/boss battles a bit. On DS I found using your big guns that have a long wait time and need four troops aligned behind them wasn't really viable. If I remember correctly I finished the last boss only using regular, basic units (and some luck).

Anyway, it was one of my favorite DS games, and the fact that it comes with a PS+ discount in Europe only sweetens the deal.

[Withnail]

Buying it on day one for the art and because Critter Crunch is one of the best things on PSN.

Bring it on.

 

[soultron]

Will be buying not only because I love you guys and your work(s), but also because we're from the same hood.

<3

 

[K.Jack]

Any chance they release this on PC or PSP?

 

[Carl]

Will be getting this with the PS+ discount Can't wait. Would buy it anyway. PS+ discount just makes it an even better deal.

 

[Snuggles]

The official statement on a Steam release is "no comment", so at least it's not entirely ruled out. I would probably wait on it if it was confirmed, but oh well, I have a PS3 for reasons like this.

Yeah I can always buy it on PS3, but I'd prefer to play it on my laptop or PSP.

I'll wait a little while, just in case.

My ursine friends! You must unite to form a thorny wall, or all is lost!

Buying the fuck out of this once I get back from the bar tomorrow night - looking forward to playing it, and supporting the Capy crew.

Thanks dude!

Clash of Heroes HD PSN launch day (for NA) is upon us! And there was much rejoicing!

 

[Vanillalite]

Made my decision. I'll get more play out of this, and especially more MP out of this if I wait it out. Sorry XBLA, but you aren't get my sale. Time to hold out for what in my mind will be the inevitable Steam release. I'll get that day 1.

PSN wallet loaded - just waiting for the update.
