Each campaign is itself divided into chapters. Unlike previous Blizzard titles, such as Warcraft II or StarCraft, players are not directed to mission briefings in which plot exposition occurs and objectives are announced; rather, Warcraft III uses a system of «seamlessquests. Objectives, known as quests, are revealed to the player during the progress of the map. Main quests are those that the player must complete to proceed to the next chapter, but there are also optional quests which are not initially revealed, but can be discovered and completed alongside the main objectives.

This experience is carried over to subsequent missions, allowing the hero to grow throughout the course of the campaign. Warcraft 3 Reign of Chaos for PC. While different in terms of storyline and precise gameplay, all of the different races' campaigns are structured similarly. Each begins with a level involving simple mechanics to introduce the player to the race and the basic elements of their hero and units.
After one or two such levels the player's first «building mission» occurs, requiring them to build and maintain a base while competing with one or more enemy forces.
The only campaign that breaks this pattern is the Night Elf campaign, whose first mission involves building a limited base. The last level of each race's campaign is an «epic battle» which means that the player has to strike down a large number of enemy foes and finally destroy their main base. While campaign games can have many different objectives, the sole objective in multiplayer games is to destroy all the buildings of the opposition.
In default melee matches, players can pick their own heroes, and losing one will not end the game. To make the game proceed more quickly, by default the map is covered in fog of war instead of the Black Mask. Warcraft III, like Blizzard's previous title StarCraft, allows for single and multiplayer replays to be recorded and viewed, allowing a game to be played at slower and faster speeds and viewed from the perspective of all players.

However, at least 60 per cent of the missions in Warcraft III involve building up a few bases, amassing as many troops as possible and then mindlessly wading into the nearest enemy encampment, clouting anything which moves round the head until it drops off, and generally hoping your forces can overwhelm your adversary.
All too often you feel as though the landscape is dictating the tactics to you, funnelling you down set routes rather than offering you a wide variety of strategic options. Why, why, why, why, why? And why once more? Slap wrist. The likes of Shogun, Warrior Kings and Cossacks have shown us the way forward and in contrast, Warcraft Ill's simplistic approach just feels, well, old.
But enough pessimism. Many of the non base-building missions add a refreshing change to the drudge of constructing and killing - such as escorting convoys and holding out for a set time against hordes of rabid enemies. Just wait till you see what she can do with her magic wand. Each of these heroes has their own diverse and well-thought-out set of spells and abilities.

The Al is very solid and units will back each other up intelligently, with healers coming to the aid of their lacerated comrades. Best of all, the game is almost bug-free. And it gets even better. Oh yes. An aspect of Warcraft III that elevates it to heights worthy of greatness.
Never in the history of RTS games has there been a more compelling, beautifully presented, well-acted, uncliched plot than here. Never want to stop pushing onto the next cut-scene, be it in-engine or one of the truly incredible FMVs that Blizzard excel in. The plot played out from four very different perspectives , takes on a sinister twist-ridden direction, surprising you time and again with its brilliant unpredictability.
But how, I hear you ask, does my story end? Or will it be swept aside, left bleeding a slow, pathetic death, reaching out to its vanquishers and coughing out its last with a mouthful of blood? Heed what you have read and decide for yourself, for the outcome of this final battle is ultimately up to you. Whether you align yourself with the tactical freedom of Shogun and Warrior Kings or the simplicity and accessibility of Warcraft III is your choice.
But choose wisely my friends, because the RTS war is about to commence. Of the four sides on offer, the humans are probably the most well-rounded, while the Undead excel defensively.
They also have the ability to raise the dead, meaning once the enemy has lost a number of units, the Undead shamans can resurrect them and turn them against their one-time comrades.
Orcs are easily the most powerful offensively, although their defensive capabilities are about as daunting as an under-fives football team's rearguard. The Knight Elves not only have the advantage magically, but can also conceal themselves well at night. As for the choice of units, overall the selection is pretty well thought out many units have unique, upgradeable abilities , and range from standard foot soldiers to mighty fire-spewing dragons.
My name is Martin Korda, and I am a multiplayer Warcraftaholic patronising applause. It started with the odd game here and there, a couple at lunch and then a couple after work. But it didn't take long before I started binging. Jumping onto Blizzard's incredible Battlenet server - which automatically matches you up with a suitable opponent -proved too much of a temptation, and soon I was embroiled in hazy all-nighter sessions. Weekends disappeared faster than a tub of lard at a fat club.
