The previous Warcraft gave us two races, Warcraft III will have six different races to command which is more than has been seen before. This will include Orcs, Humans and Demons. You ll be able to play all six races during the course of the campaign. You got to towns, you interact with towns, you buy things from towns but at no point is a town exclusively yours. Next key feature is legendary heroes.
All units have to be attached to a hero in our game.
The next thing is Warcraft III will have a fully interactive world. You interact with the world to get your resources. What that means is that most of the games they do now in 3D they re actually saving up all the key-frames for every animation they do which takes a lot of memory. So the system we re using is much more point based so we can take key-frames and interpolate between points. So one of the things we ve been committed to at Blizzard is to have tools that users can use to play on maps or create scenarios if they wanted.
