I watched a copyrights attorney talk about WC:R [url]https://youtu.be/3zQXg7BLQXo[/url]
In intro he says metacritics rate the game 0.9/10
I'm like "that's not right, it's 1.6/10"
So I go to metacritics and it's 0.7/10 [url]https://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/warcraft-iii-reforged[/url]
People get more and more dissatisfied with WC:R as time goes by :>

Is it me or is this website lagging more and more often lately? -_-

This is so sad to hear tbh...
Like, I played WC3 custom maps for years before SC2 came out.

I mean, I understand Blizzard I guess. They're a company after all.
But it still feels disrespectful to all those awesome map makers who gave me and so many others so much joy.
Some people grew up with comic books.
Some people grew up with D&D and the like.
To each their own.
To me, custom maps were larger part of my childhood than I care to admit.

[QUOTE=Elixir;843807]We've also just been made Aware of blizzards new custom map policy in war3 reforged. If we were to even think about making anything for that platform, not only would blizzard get exclusive ownership of it [B]but we'd get banned for using 3rd party ip anyway. [/B]

The new new policy is definitely designed because blizzard are still super angry that dota and the multi billion dollar moba market started in their game and they got fuck all from it - even losing the naming lawsuit against valve. As far as we know this only applies to reforged and can't be really retroactively applied to sc - but it's something to keep an eye on[/QUOTE]
Can you elaborate on the highlighted part?
Does someone own the IP of all mafia games or something?
I don't quite get it. There are many different versions of every single thing in the world. Like, there are several mafia games on steam for example - what would be the difference in this mafia game?

Sorry for the dumb question. I imagine some people just facepalmed hard.

[QUOTE=Frinckles;842908]Sc2 is free. They can join whenever they'd like.[/QUOTE]
The same is true for SC:BW I believe.
It's so strange that WC3 is the outlier among the 3 Blizzard RTS games..

Was hoping you could give some answers?
I know you played Mafia on WC3.
Found your thread from last year: [url]https://www.sc2mafia.com/forum/showthread.php/41874-Warcraft-3-Mafia-Updates-with-v1-29-patch[/url]

Edit: ok nvm you already answered.
[QUOTE=powerofdeath;716385]12 players, less roles, less customization, like you couldnt choose how many ammo a vig would have, and certain mechanics are different, like bus driver cant bus themselves, etc.

meta is different in general

much easier to cheat, and you can get away with it because no staff team to moderate the community, but hosts have the ability to kick out trolls in the game anyway[/QUOTE]

Ok so Mafia there is bad/dead and there is no prospect of WC3Mafia ever coming in existence. :S

It's kinda sad though that the map editor is so different. Makes it impossible to let's say combine this community with the non existent theirs.

Now that Warcraft 3 Reforged has been released a few hours ago, I have been watching Grubby play the Campaign on Twitch.

But it got me thinking about [I]-Mafia-[/I].
To my knowledge, WC3 has the same Mafia as SC2 has, is that correct?
Maybe [MENTION=34329]Frinckles[/MENTION] or [MENTION=2275]Elixir[/MENTION] knows?

Does anyone know anything more? Is it being played? Is it being moderated? How similar is it? And most importantly - does it have a prospect of forming a new Forum Mafia community?
