There isn't a child alive that grew up in the '90s and early that haven't heard at least once about Blizzard Entertainment's Warcraft series. This then never-before-seen take on the Tolkien universe has reshaped the gaming world, spawned sequels, expansions, and MMOs that are still among the most played game today.
One of the centerpieces of this franchise was Warcraft III and its expansion. The fans of this title have been begging for widescreen support ever since these devices come to a staple to what it means to have a gaming rig, so the developer delivered accordingly.
To prevent stretching there have been changes to the interfaces, such as the addition of bookends to the in-game interface, or black pillars in menus. Not only did the UI get an expansive update, but so did the game lobbies themselves. They were expanded to support 24 players, and 12 new team colors were added, namely maroon, navy, turquoise, violet, wheat, peach, mint, lavender, coal, snow, emerald, and peanut.
Ladder standings have been reset, meaning that anyone who is excited to start playing this new version will have the change for a new fresh start. Unfortunately for those that love to review old matches, they won't be able to view their replays anymore, since replays are incompatible between major game versions. This makes it look like they are preparing for even greater changes to the game that would otherwise be impossible to support on such an old system.
One major change that Warcraft III bought to the table as opposed to its 2D predecessors is the concept of "Hero units", which are units that are more powerful than the average cannon fodder that your base produces.
