WarCraft: The Beginning (Patch 1.31) WIP

[ComradeMaper]

Hello, is there any update from this campaign?

Any updates?

Hi， bro，When will the latest version be released？

Hello, do you have any updates from Warcraft: First War after a long time?

Hello!

As many might have suggested, the project is mostly on pause for now
I'm working on it, but in the rare moments of having time and energy.

I love this campaign but the Khadgar levels are pretty annoying. I'm on Sand in an hourglass level and I CAN NOT find the essential oils for the potion. It's pretty frustrating...

Moroes' room, go left from Khadgar's one.

Man, this is so good. It's been a while since I've seen this good campaign. Good job.

Hello,

Do we have any hope that this campaign will be updated to work with Reforged v1.35+ ?

Hello,

For sure but not soon(
Could you please tell me what exactly is broken with 1.35? Or is it so bad that it's easier to say what's NOT broken?

 

[Kallel]

Thank you for your reply!

It just crashes immediately upon loading the first map (all is good until you don't try to load maps)

Holy... I remember running these on Reforged PTR when they announced Custom Campaigns... Will look into it when possible. Thanks for the info.

Hello ComradeMaper,

So I managed to gather a 1.31 WCIII version and I'm playing through the campaign, but I'm stuck at the "find a way to ocntrol the visions" level. I managed to read and click on all the books from "Nations of Azeroth", "Alchemy", "Ancient Lore", "Military History", "Arcane Arts"1 & 2, and "Beastiary", but no new recipes appeared in my alchemy handbook and nothing is happening in general. I got the 2 books on time and the scroll about "Vallion's Sight", of ocurse. What should I do?

Hello.
You need to read the books in the correct order (if you read the right one - you will get comment from Khadgar with a hint to the next book).
After the scroll he says 'Is that a name of some sort of spell or what?', hinting you to check the Arcane Arts shelves again, looking for some book about 'Sight', 'Seeing' or 'Vision'.

I try to give hints without telling the exact walkthrough) Let me know if you need further assistance.

P.S. Yeah, now when I look at this puzzle after a year or so... It might be quite confusing)

Greeting, @ComradeMaper what's the news from this Warcraft : the First War campaign? Really interested to see the story of the conflict against Medivh (possessed by Sargeras) and also the demon

Thanks!

So, I finally finished the campaign and I must say, the work you did is excellent! Great campaign indeed!

I'm not an English native speaker so I forgot what "WIP" meant and I was actually quite sad when I discovered that this is not finished, after the last chapter I was enthralled by the story and eager to discover the rest!

I'd just have a couple of feedbacks to give (in no particular order):

• In the first map, getting the treasure in the room with the chief Death Knight is basically impossible... Unless I'm too dumb and I just did not reflect on how to get the treasure enough, in which case, discard this point...
• In the map where Khadgar is knocked out, the section where Khadgar has to flee needs improvement because as of now it is... quite annoying. Khadgar isn't able to escape anywhere in the vicinity and he has to follow a long winded road in order to properly escape... But with the fog of war that road isn't intuitive and the player ends up dying fast and multiple times in a row because it is surrounded by enemies on nearly all sides except the one that is correct. I actually got SO frustrated that I had to use "iseedeadpeople" there.
• In all the rest of the gameplay, I would have liked a general higher difficulty though, I find that the only map that was properly challenging was the one where Orgrim had to destroy Human bases in 1 hour.
• The cooldown for the teleporting orb in Kharazan should be WAY lower. Walking everywhere is quite a pain, but if the orb takes too much time to recharge you're forced to do it anyway rendering the orb itself nearly useless.
• Please, do NOT let Alexstrasza place a recharging health circle on the spot where Sargeras usually goes when you are invisible and he can't see you. It's REALLY hard to damage Sargeras (as it SHOULD be, that's not the issue) and it becomes REALLY frustrating when Sargeras regains, like, all of his health because of Alexstrasza, making you lose the last 10 minutes of gameplay...
• Yeah, I think that you should change the sentence concerning the Vallon's Sight spell so that it points more explicitely to the "far sight"'s related book.

And...That was it, I think. Overall, GREAT campaign with a couple of blemishes here and there. 9.5/10.

The treasure is meant to be unobtainable. A greed test from Medivh)

Did not expect Sargeras to regenerate this way. Gonna fix it for sure

I can not use to examine on the strange hoofprint, so I couldn't handle the quest here.
I was playing it on Reforged.
Btw maybe you should change some models for Reforged, e.g. Alextrazsa, Blue dragon (Salogon?)
I think it was last chapter so I would like to finish it, maybe its possible wiht old version like 1.31.
And thx so much for that great story.
Also I couldnt find some names on warcraftwiki, thats all story is not canon in the campaign game?

 

[jardasplay]

God damn it it's so good. You going to continue the development?

WarCraft: The Beginning

In the beginning this whole project was heavily... 'inspired' by well-known WarCraft movie.

www.youtube.com

Another story of Warcraft 1, but with more hero-focused gameplay.

Dammit, it is sad to hear and notice that this campaign development is halted for now. The current "last" mission features some balance issues, IMO, like the battle of Aegwynn against Avatar of Sargeras, but overall I liked this campaign.
It is lore-friendly and I think that this campaign, along with projects from @OutsiderXE, can be used as para-official WC1 Lore in WC3.
Like and I hope that you will finish it, some day.
