i've been desperate to get ahold of this game for about 2 weeks now

for some fucking reason i can't get a good full version of the game

if any of you have it, PLEASE BURN AN ISO for me and link me to it (i'm on a ridiculously good connection)

OR

someone tell me how to apply the fucking v1.3 patch without it saying "old file not found"
Whenever I encounter some little hitch, or some of my orbs get out of orbit, nothing pleases me so much as to make the crooked straight and crush down uneven places. www.day9.tv

HoMM2 kicked so much ass.

It all went downhill from there.

i beat the demo on impossible mode! so damn hard.

eventually bought the game even though it was pretty outdated then, was lots of fun though, pity not exactly balanced.

ghosts are way too strong

HoMM1 was an excellent introduction to the series, and at the time of its arrival, it exceeded the standard.

HoMM2 was a really, really good game, best in the series by far.

HoMM3 and on was all "here are a billion different creatures with no artistic vision, half of which you won't even remember the names of, and here's a hundred different campaigns where each stage seems to take weeks to complete. give me $60 please"

Hell yes ghosts.

Did you ever play that game multiplayer? How was it imbalanced? I thought ghosts were hired by your heroes, not bought from a particular race's town...

I only played lan with friends, and always on maps with no ghosts, else you would just boost up dimplomacy or whatever it is and rush to the ghosts and buy however many will join your forces. Then go hobgoblin/peasant abuse

So yeah i'm not to knowledgable on how balanced it was. Seemed ok, i liked wizard race best though. warlocks weren't bad either. I thought humans were a bit weak.

That was so long ago... like 7 years. I liked the green race with the phoenixes and druids and unicorns, because I'm a woman.

Warlocks also. There was just something so indescribably satisfying about gathering all the needed resources and finally making it to black dragons.

That's one thing we'll always wonder about HoMM2. How was it balanced?

It never really gathered a competitive multiplayer scene.

Phoenixs were so weak for an ultimate unit, fortunately you could get them pretty quick and got so more of them then other races each week.

Also magic races owned non magic races mid to late game. Chain lightning and ressurrect so good

While most computer games are made to be played while sitting alone in a dark room with headphones on, HoMM2 was completely different.

I'd be on the livingroom computer, parents watching TV or making dinner 20 feet away, playing that game with a couple friends.

Real actual friends that have heartbeats and stuff.

Nothing more human than gathering together with your real actual friends to ... stare at a pacifying box of commercial enslavement together in silence. Hey, it's not false advertising when they call it "programming." Your country, 'tis of thee.

HoMM 2 owns so bad. I have a copy but I don't know how to burn ico's.

And the game was suprisingly balanced, Knigth and Barbarian owned up early game and then got weaker in the midgame and then the magic races owned lategame.

I can't think of any of the races being any worse than the others, although all had their weakness. (Warlock NEVER having any ranged power whatsoever regardless of what you did. And only reason they survived midgame was minutour kings, and maybe hydras if you had teleport.
Also undead only survived midgame because they hade vampire lords.)

Edit: Also agreed that you almost never played it alone. Usually 3 persons infront of a computer. Man I must have played Good vs Evil 20 times.
