Best Custom Games Warcraft III

Wacraft III Frozen Throne is a game from ancient times. Simply put, this is the strategy of our childhood, which we all fell for before even going to school. That’s how nostalgia works. But so far, the game is still alive and continues to get new fashion cards and additional campaigns. So let’s look at the best of all the cards created by the community these days.

Remember when we, as young children, tried to help the mighty Prince Artes in his quest to the far north? Do you remember how the great Lorderon was rescued from the hostile forces of the Undead, who wanted to enslave all of Azeroth? And so far this beautiful strategy is in good health and continues to please us and our children. There are games that do not have time or age, and Warcraft III is just of that kind.

In 2002, it was a real breakthrough in the RTS genre. We were waiting for a breathtaking graphics, insanely beautiful gameplay and a great economic system at the time. And if we’re going to talk about it before exciting campaigns, then this is a separate conversation. In the beginning, the very first version of the game, called Reign of Chaos, was released. That’s where we helped Artes on his quest. But in 2003 the incomparable Addon Frozen Throne was released, where we got the other side of Azeroth.

Warcraft III is considered one of the most popular multiplayer games on the planet. The authors from Blizzard made a wonderful gift for those who like to have fun, and gave the community Map Editor – a program for creating custom maps. It immediately attracted many enthusiasts, who immediately began to sculpt something interesting.

Recall that the famous Dota came out of a simple map for Warcraft III Frozen Throne. And how many maps and additional campaigns were made as a whole over the years! Not in a fairy tale to say, not with a pen to describe. No, well, with a pen, of course, you can describe, if you highlight only the best and highest quality. These are the maps and additional campaigns that will be presented to the public today.

World of Warcraft Heroes: Return

  • Создатель: andreaiona

World of Warcraft: Heroes Return is a fan multiplayer modification based on the original World of Warcraft franchise developed by Blizzard. The authors are trying to turn the world of Frozen Throne into World of Warcraft, add more atmosphere from the great MMORPG.

The main goal of the project is to create a simple, yet interesting and fascinating gameplay with a spectacular fantasy landscape and atmosphere that will allow players to feel like in the World of Warcraft. This assembly of maps was made with incredible skill and ability. Those who have long known the famous MMORPG, it will seem truly interesting.

Dota Heroes

  • Creator: XionWorks

Dota is a map for Warcraft III, which has become a real cult among the gaming community. And this Spanish fashion makes this map even more beautiful and interesting. The main goal of the project is to introduce more new heroes, thoroughly worked out in all aspects. The fashion is created by Spanish developers, big fans of famous Dotha.

This map is created exclusively for multiplayer battles, so fans of the single are advised to moderate their fervor. But for those, who love to fight with their friends in the open spaces of long-favored landscape, this is the real gift. So… Are you ready to meet the new heroes and check out their skills? Let’s go, then. Swing and play.

Heroes of the Storm

  • Creator: deener123

According to the author, he looked around many times and noticed that most of the card mods for Warcraft are just repeated skins with cool models, so he decided to present something new to us. That’s what happened to Heroes of the Storm. This mod adds new fractions, sets of soundtracks and of course abilities for heroes.

Here are the new fractions: Iron Horde, Naga Legion, Goblins, Murlocks, Bloody Elves. Also added several mini factions of mercenaries, introduced ships, remodeled camps and taverns for the same mercenaries. There are also plans to create a whole additional campaign with a new storyline. Heroes of the Storm is not just a fashion, but a real work of art. What are the only quality models of units and a new honed gameplay!

Warcraft 2.5

  • Creator: TaShadan

This project is a fascinating modification in the spirit of RTS of the old school. The events of the project take place after the second war, when the Alliance is still fighting with the remains of the Orogen Horde and is slowly restoring the former greatness of the kingdoms. The main task according to the authors is to transfer the gameplay Warcraft 2, Starcraft: Broodwar and Armies of Exigo to Warcraft 3.

The author focused exclusively on the old-school audience, so there are no particularly cool changes as in Heroes of the Storm here. But fans of old games and original style will like this project. The mod contains a collection of carefully designed maps, on which you can see all the changes made.

Elder Scrolls

  • Creator: salvadorc17

This time it is not just a fashion, but a whole additional campaign created on the basis of the famous setting. This campaign is based on the history of the Elder Scrolls series and all the content related to the series. The gameplay here is quite interesting. In each quest mission, you need to command the army and defeat the enemy, performing the main tasks.

The storyline of the campaign tells about the immediate events in Tamriel. In Tamriel III era, there were many conflicts between powerful empires. All events taking place here take place after the conquest of the Imperial City by King Kulekain.

Every unit or hero here is made with love and skill. The authors’ knowledge of the ENT of the universe is immediately visible. Although the project is not too large-scale at the moment, but fans of TES will surely like it.

Throne of Azora: Revelation

  • Creator: Tyci

This fashion immerses us in a completely new storyline and new setting. Prince of Azores – Agamand chose four men as his personal bodyguards during the war with the Sweet Empire. And these heroes call themselves Ethan Longdarion, Sardan Roux, Sir Mogus and Cobo.

They must overcome their personal enslavement for the common good and serve their prince. Their purpose is simply to kill General Gavinrad, who is responsible for the superiority of the Sweet race in this war. However, it is not an easy task, because Gavinrad is still one step ahead of the entire team to decide the fate of Azores.

Fashion turns the gameplay from strategy to solid RPG. It has a unique combat system (inspired by Dark Souls), which focuses on fast reflexes. There are no auto-attacks here, so you will have to fight manually. You can block enemy strikes, or use special skulls exactly at the right time to counter enemy strikes and deal damage to the enemy.

Enemies will have different types of attack or even special abilities, which will try to break you. Each character has its own life history, and therefore it is strongly reflected in the gameplay.

Warcraft 3 Ascenscion

  • Creator: Ascenscion Mod Team

Another Spanish project with extremely controversial content. Some modders for Warcraft consider it a complete plagiarism and accuse the authors of stealing (although some of the content is borrowed from other mods, but the modding has no patent, right?). But the other part considers the project worthy, because of its fascinating gameplay and balance, as well as introduced new fractions.

Unfortunately, the fashion entirely in Spanish, but for the sake of a wonderful gameplay can and learn a little language, so that at least something here became clear. New factions, new units and new story line are waiting for you to download Ascenscion and put it on Frozen Throne. No other fashion has ever known so many improvements. The authors honestly admit that they have been working on the project for many years and are going to finish it soon.

Legendarium map pack

  • Creator: BagaturKhan

Single mission package for Frozen Throne, created by different fantasy universes and even sci-fi. Includes storyline maps of the universe Chronicle of Narnia, Tolkien Medea and even the Stargate. In all missions the AI works perfectly, who never sleeps and tries to use all his abilities to defeat the player. Lord of the Rings maps are more of a quest than a battle involving multiple armies. We are given individual characters from the universe of Tolkien, which existed in this or that era of the Arda. With their help, we have an unforgettable journey that will eventually lead us right into the clutches of enemies.

But with the Chronicles of Narnia everything is much more interesting. We are literally immersed in a giant battle from the start. The storyline is mainly devoted to the events from the book “The Conqueror of Dawn.” There we will help King Caspian, Lady Lilliandille and Lucy Pevancy to fight the Evil of the Dark Island. The trouble is, the Dark Island uses not only enslaved men, but powerful demons as well. The battle will be fought mostly on islands in the middle of the ocean. There’s a big sea battle to be fought.

As for the Stargate, it’s where we travel to different planets with SG-1. In one of our missions, we help the Teal’c Jaffa in the fight against the Goa’uld Coalition. In another, we’re fighting against the Ori Empire, which expects to destroy all the disobedient in the galaxy. Destroying spells and the most powerful technological aids are attached.

Dead Space: The End

  • Creator:  Akamatsu

The author claims to be a true fan of the Dead Space universe. Setting is really very good and has its own unique story. The idea was to implement one of the storylines, telling the story of the struggle against the mysterious Brotherhood Obelisk, seeking full control over the galaxy. Sectarians awaken horrifying Necromorphs, which get out of control and become a monstrous lethal force. In the main campaign, we are to help the brave earthlings fight the terrifying creatures.

The project has unique 3D models of units from the modemaker Grievous1, as well as numerous retextures of old models, which now give the atmosphere of Dead Space. However, many elements are preserved and from the original game. The campaign’s gameplay reminds Alien Shooter, where we have to shoot thousands of enemies. The battles are mostly with hordes of Necromorphs, that flood not only the ships, but also whole cities.

Power of Corruption mod

  • Creator: Power of Corruption Production

Power of Corruption is a giant, giant game-changing card that has completely changed the gameplay. Two new races have been added to the game, the Nagi and the Sargaras Demons. This project was once known as Naga Wars, and we could only play for the Depthbusters. Due to some requests and suggestions from players, the authors decided to add more innovation and features, and carefully honed the gameplay.

The mod has long been ready and considered complete. It has almost everything that you can. New fractions please the eye with their unique models. Numerous heroes have an extraordinary arsenal of abilities that literally tear everyone apart into molecules. AI works just fine. He carefully researches the player’s actions, analyzes them, and then hits with all his might. In the end, untrained gamers have a very hard time.


For Warcraft III and its addons there is a huge number of mods. Mentioned here – just a small part of all the great content of the game community. For the game was created a huge number of global modifications and just countless minor additions. They can all be found on the Internet and on ModDB.

F*ck causal games what are your favorite games this gen.

We here at playeressence are hardcore gamers. Most of us have been playing games for the majority of our lives.  Every gamer has their games that they love. Games that as a gamer you never want to see die. At playeressence this is a place to discuss why you like games and what your favorite games are. Games have reached a medium now that you shouldn’t be ashamed to tell the causal or non-gamer that you like Final Fantasy or Mass Effect. As a gamer I love when non-gamers try to tell me what I should be doing with my spare time. Its funny as hell to me cause most of these people that say this to me are chicks who watch dancing with the stars and the bachelor, (talk about a waste of time). To get to the point though, I want to know your personal favorite games this generation and why. Here is my list.

 5. Bayonetta- Such an innovative combat system. I was blown away by the versatility Bayonetta has in her arsenal. Being able to dodge offset your combos, mix and match weapons to your hands and legs to create whole new combo moves. I collected all of the achievements in Bayonetta and beat the game 3 times.

4. Metal Gear Solid 4- I played this game in 2008 all day when it came out. I ignored my job, cell phone, and even had the surround sound blasted so high people my co-workers knocked on my door and I couldn’t hear them. This game owned my life for 2 days straight and I loved every second of it.

3. Pokemon Pearl/White- I confess… im a Pokemon addict. Over 350 hours into Pokemon Yellow on the GBA, 900 hours into Pokemon Pearl, and over 356 hours into Pokemon White on the DS. I just love the competition Pokemon brings. I wish the online play didn’t have so many rage quitters though.

2. Mario Galaxy (1+2)- When I first saw Mario Galaxy I didn’t think much of it. I didn’t like Super Mario Sunshine so I wasn’t expecting much. But boy did that change when I actually started playing it! The level design, graphics, and puzzles were a joy to play and see.

1. Mass Effect (series)- The innovation with the dialog system in Mass Effect won me over the first time I played it. The combat, exploration, and story was so good in the first Mass Effect the assortment of tech issues didn’t make me turn the game off in frustration one time.

What do you guys think? Whats your favorite games this generation and why? Put them in the comments below.

Top 5 Reasons the Wii U will be Successful

The Wii U has been taking a pounding by different websites and users over how Nintendo revealed the system. How much power the new system actually has and the footage of 3rd party games actually being 360/ps3 footage at E3 has not earned Nintendo good press. Many people are pointing to the Wii U being doomed a year before it even comes out. That is a silly claim and here are my top 5 reasons why the Wii U will be successful.

5. Has “Wii” In its name.

– The Wii U is the successor to the Nintendo’s highest selling home console ever. Keeping that name will go a long way to bringing the casuals back to purchase the Wii U.

4. The Wii U will be HD and support 1080P

– The Wii was shunned by many for it SD graphics. Developers said they just simply couldn’t bring their engines over to the Wii cause of a lack of horsepower. This will all change with the Wii U now that it will be fully HD supporting 1080P via HDMI.

3. 3rd Party support is picking up

– Batman Arkham City, Ninja Gaiden 3, Darksiders 2, Tekken, Aliens Colonial Marines, EA titles, Ghost Recon Online, Killer Freaks From Outer space, Assassins Creed, Dirt, Metro Last Light, in addition to these games being announced companies like Crytek, and Epic have announced they have their game engines up and running on the Wii U hardware. So this is a vast difference that the Wii had. All of these top-notch developers announcing games and support for the Wii U is fantastic and a sign of better things to come.

2. Revamped Online System (NO MORE FRIEND CODES)

– During the Ubisoft developer roundtable questions about Wii U’s online infrastructure were asked and Ubisoft answered them. The online will have a gamertag log in, achievements, game tracking, leaderboards, and all the bells and whistles you would expect from a PS3/360 game. Plus one more little detail… NO MORE FRIEND CODES. (Thank you Jesus! Can I get a AMEN!)

1. The Nintendo Magic

– Nintendo Magic you say? What is that? I call the Nintendo Magic the things Nintendo can only bring to the table. Mario, Metroid, Zelda, Pokemon, Smash Bros, F-Zero, Star Fox, Kirby, Fire Emblem, Punch Out, Donkey Kong Country. The killer first party IP’s that everybody buys. Nintendo’s 1st party IP’s are the reason I will always buy Nintendo products and that goes for a lot of other people too. The sales numbers don’t lie. The Nintendo Magic is also the innovation. The tablet style controller is so cool! Coming off of the Wii remote you knew Nintendo was going to do something big but seeing the applications they showed with games gets me very excited to play The Wii U when it launches sometime next year.
