Might Magic Showdown 
Save
Might & Magic: Showdown will be shuttered at the end of the monthJul 18, 2017 - PC GamerTom said in his January preview of Might & Magic: Showdown, just ahead of its Early Access release, that painting the game's digital miniatures was great, but the actual PvP gameplay was among the "dullest" he'd seen in a long time. Several months later, it appears that Ubisoft is unable to figure out how to make it better, as Showdown is being shuttered at the end of the month. "We wish to convey our sincerest gratitude to you, our dedicated players, who have helped us navigate the management of an Early Access campaign—because of you, we have learned a great deal about how best to serve you and we hope to carry these learnings forward into future Ubisoft projects," Ubi wrote in a closure message posted last week. "We also owe a very special debt of gratitude to our Might & Magic fans who accepted this new take on the universe. It has been our pleasure and honor to deal with one of gaming’s longest lived communities." Might & Magic: Showdown is no longer available for purchase, and the servers will be shut down on July 31, after which it will no longer be playable. Until that same date, Ubisoft will also issue full refunds "to players who feel they are owed them." Might & Magic SHOWDOWN: Thank You and FarewellJul 11, 2017 - Community Announcementshttp://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27439023/ad808155541bf476694f2c9f8fa592fc8be5d5be.jpg Hello Heroes, We regret to announce that Might & Magic SHOWDOWN will be shutting down on July 31, 2017, ending our Early Access period and ceasing server support. As a result, the game will be inaccessible after this date. We wish to convey our sincerest gratitude to you, our dedicated players, who have helped us navigate the management of an Early Access campaign – because of you, we have learned a great deal about how best to serve you and we hope to carry these learnings forward into future Ubisoft projects. We also owe a very special debt of gratitude to our Might & Magic fans who accepted this new take on the universe. It has been our pleasure and honor to deal with one of gaming’s longest lived communities. Effective immediately, Might & Magic SHOWDOWN will be removed from the Steam Store to prevent further purchase of the Early Access license. The game will remain in your Steam Library, but server support will end on July 31, 2017 and the game itself will become inoperable. In an effort to ensure that we abide by our players’ expectations of the Early Access model, we will be offering full refunds to players who feel they are owed them until July 31, 2017. Thank you Heroes.

Darkness is looming over the world of SHOWDOWN… and with it come two brand new creatures, and one malevolent hero! Hailing from the shadowy corners of the Darkness faction, Faceless, Vampire and Sandro, the shadow of death himself, have come to wreak havoc and harvest souls. http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27439023/2e84b1c76afff9578f4e481561a50f0fab546c32.jpg Along with our vicious newcomers, we’ll be adding in the first of our solo campaigns, following the adventures of everyone’s favourite rampaging Barbarian, Crag Hack! More details about the campaign and the abilities and playstyle of our new hero/creatures will follow soon! This patch will also be our last patch before we come out of Early Access, meaning that there won’t be any updates for an extended period after this one. Don’t be alarmed though! This will allow us to bring you all a greater experience in the long term. As one of Ubisoft’s first real forays into the Early Access environment, we’ve learned a lot, but in our desire to deliver on new modes and features rapidly, we’ve realized there are some elements that require more time and attention than speedy iteration allows. This time between now and the full launch of the game will give us a chance to fully commit to finalizing these plans, and put your feedback to work for the final game. That being said, please do keep giving us your incredible feedback! It’s extremely valuable, and we’re excited to see what the future holds! Best regards, Your Might & Magic SHOWDOWN team. Creature Roles: What exactly are they?Apr 7, 2017 - Community AnnouncementsHeya Heroes, Due to some changes to the games PvP recently with the ATTACK CITADEL MODE, we added some 'roles' to our creatures in order to properly differentiate them. This post is to shine some light on what they are, and which creatures are better at certain tasks! With the ATTACK CITADEL MODE all creatures now have a new spell rotation that fits within 4 objectives. Those objectives will determine their target. We did a reset on all spell rotations to these default behaviors to put everyone on common ground. From there, you can change and adapt the tactics whichever way you want! OBJECTIVES: UNIT KILLER: Focus the target with the least health or the enemy citadel DESTROYER: Focus the enemy citadel DEFENDER: Focus the enemy who is dealing the most damage. ORB HUNTER: Prioritize the orb’s collect. CREATURES ROLES: TANK Orc Warrior: Unit Killer / Destroyer Minotaur: Defender / Orb Hunter Sentinel: Defender RANGE DPS Free City Mage: Unit Killer Mermaid: Defender Snow Maiden: Unit Killer / Destroyer Storm Caller: Unit Killer / Defender MELEE DPS Shade: Unit Killer / Orb Hunter Brimstone Golem: Destroyer Titan: Defender / Destroyer Cyclops: Unit Killer / Defender SUPPORT Inquisitor: Defender Earth Shaper: Defender VERSION UPDATE NOTES - April 6th 2017Apr 6, 2017 - Community Announcementshttp://cdn.edgecast.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27439023/ad808155541bf476694f2c9f8fa592fc8be5d5be.jpg Heya heroes! This weeks patch introduces some big changes to the game, including an all new game mode, hero control changes and more! As part of these changes, Hangvul will be introduced as the default hero for the campaign, in place of Veyer. As such, all players will be granted Hangvul for free, with all of his skills unlocked from the get go for existing players. Also, due to changes to a lot of abilities within recent patches,we will reset all creature programming, meaning you’ll have to set up your tactics again with the new/altered spells. Now, let’s get into the notes: NEW GAME MODE – CITADEL ATTACK We’ve replaced the DUEL PvP and SKIRMISH with CITADEL ATTACK. In Citadel Attack, the objective is to destroy the Citadel of the opponent’s team. The Citadels are protected by a SHIELD that needs to be destroyed before attacking the Citadel. To destroy the shield of the citadel, you need to gather ENERGY. There are three ways to gather energy, each with a different energy value. Collect ORBS that appear across the battlefield. Kill an enemy creature. Kill an enemy hero. The HERO now respawns when killed. The cooldown increases after each death. NEW HERO CONTROLS RIGHT Click on the ground to move your hero around the map. RIGHT Click on a target to use the DEFAULT ATTACK on him. To use HERO abilities, Left Click or use the shortcut associated to the ability to select it and LEFT Click on your target to launch. CREATURE SWAPPING In PvP or Skirmish matches, you will now be asked to select 4 creatures to accompany your hero into combat. Two of the creatures will be on the sidelines, ready to go in combat when needed. You can swap creatures either by selecting them with a click or by using keyboard shortcut Q, W and then by selecting which figurines you want to swap out. Each time a creature gets taken out of the field, it goes into a COOLDOWN before being active again. While on the sidelines, the creatures are slowly healing. If a creature was killed before being swapped, it will go in a COOLDOWN before being active again. CREATURE FURY LEVEL When creatures are idle on the sidelines, they enrage because they are not part of the battle. As time goes by, their FURY level goes up. When they finally make it into the fight, they will have a buff that is proportional to their FURY level. DEFAULT CREATURE PROGRAMMING To provide an easier introduction to the game as well as provide examples of creature behavior with the new game mode, we’ve revisited all of the creatures’ basic programming to fit with one of these four creature basic behavior: UNIT KILLER: Primary behavior will be to target enemy units and kill them as fast as possible. DEFENDER: Primary behavior will be to either heal units and the Citadel or help other units with the use of crowd control abilities. DESTROYER: Primary task will be to destroy the opponent’s Citadel wh...Maintenance: 06/04/2017Apr 6, 2017 - Community AnnouncementsUPDATE: We've encountered an unexpected delay while updating and while we don't have a precise ETA for resolution, the team is working hard to get things up and running ASAP!

Next week (the week of the 13th of March), there will be no update for Might & Magic SHOWDOWN. Never fear, though! This just means our next update will be even bigger.

What we’re working on is specifically designed to tackle these issues, amongst others, with one aspect of the update being focused on the multiplayer PvP side of the game, and the other being a fully fledged solo campaign mode. We can’t share any more information about this with you right now, but keep your eyes peeled for more sneak peeks!

Today we'll be applying a brand new update to Might & Magic Showdown. As such, the servers will be unavailable from now (10 AM EST) until Noon EST (roughly 2 hours). After this maintenance, the update notes will be available here. All the best, and thank you for your patience, Your Might & Magic Showdown TeamFeedback Update Feb 10Feb 10, 2017 - Community AnnouncementsGreetings Heroes! We're extremely grateful for all of your feedback and have some updates on our priorities in response to what we've heard! We have three items on our docket that we're currently focused on and we hope that resolving these will lead to growth in our player base. Indeed, we can see that some of the issues we face could be helped by simply having more players, so you may notice a theme in our objectives below. SERVER ISSUES IN CHINA We're working on a vanguard solution to get this sorted as quickly as possible - essentially, the plan is to open a second set of servers in China specifically for players in Asia. While this will reduce the impact of lag in that territory, connectivity issues may still exist and our player base will be divided between North American/European servers and Asian servers. We still have work to do on this front, but we’ve got a few ideas we’ll tackle over the next few weeks. CORE COMBAT We're actively working on refining our combat system. The comments you've provided us on balancing are extremely useful and we expect to implement changes with our next patch (ETA: Thursday Feb 16). The team's objective here is to add more intrinsic fun to the combat system overall as well as provide more strategic/tactical maneuvers to engage you during battle. We’re definitely looking at Murazel’s performance in PvP and will be addressing it. We’ll keep iterating on both balance and core combat over the next few patches, so keep that feedback coming! PVE CONTENT Simply put, we've heard your requests for additional PvE content and are exploring ways we can streamline its delivery. In addition to those three priorities, we're still working on delivering new miniatures that you've requested, like Asad (pictured below) who we hope to add in next week's patch! http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27439023/344796770f2b352afffae3bc4fd4ec17096680fe.jpg Once we've made some progress on these three items, we'll look towards doing some more outreach to try to aggressively grow our playerbase, which should help alleviate long queue times. Thanks once again for providing the feedback and community engagement that demonstrates that our commitment to the Early Access model can be successful! -Your MMS Team PATCH NOTES - 01/02/2017Feb 2, 2017 - Community AnnouncementsHey Heroes, Here are the patch notes for today's update! You'll find all of the following in the game once the update is complete: New Game Mode: Skirmish 1.0 3v3 and 4v4 Skirmish is now available in the DUEL tab. This is a first iteration of the game mode. We will shape the skirmish mode based on community feedback. Hero Control 1.0 Players can now move the hero freely across the board during combat. We have 2 control options for the player’s movement (available in OPTIONS) CONTROL 1: Left-click will move the character on the board. Left-click HOLD will pan the camera. Right-click will rotate the camera. CONTROL 2: Left-click or Left-click hold will move the character on the board. Right-click will pan the camera. Middle mouse-click will rotate the camera. This will impact camera movement in the Citadel as well. This is a first iteration of the hero controls. We will expand on the hero controls based on community feedback. Visit Citadel 1.0 You can now visit another player’s Collection from your own Collection menu by clicking the ‘’VISIT CITADELS’’ button. The Collection will be displayed around the citadel with the SKINS, POSES and POSITIONS created/picked by the player. You can visit citadels by entering a player name, by looking for the last player you’ve met ONLINE or by clicking the RANDOM PLAYER button. In the next iteration, we will add the option to ‘’LIKE’’ a citadel and create a LEADERBOARD for the best Collections! Player SKINS are now saved in JPG format to allow faster loads. This comes at the expense of a (small) compression. Energy Management For Creatures We’ve changed the way ENERGY works for Creatures. All creatures now have 10 ENERGY points. The Energy is now based on the number of CONDITIONS (Command Lines) a Creature has – no longer related to the spells. Tabletop Camera We’ve added a new TABLETOP camera that showcases the entire playing area. We’ve made modifications to the control of the Hero Camera based on your control options. You can now toggle the cinematic camera on a separate button. CAMERA CONTROL: Space Bar will center camera on the HERO. ALT will switch the camera between Tabletop and Hero Camera. Daily Challenges Daily challenges now give a LOOT BOX to players upon completion. Challenges are for PvP and SKIRMISH. Connection Issues Added DEBUG INFO to help us understand/debug network & latency issues players have in different countries. Fixed issues where the players were getting a message ‘’OPPONENT LEFT’’ in PvE matches. This issue would arise when the players were losing their connection to the server. A proper message will now be displayed if this issue happens in the future. Please send the following information to support.ubi.com if you continue to encounter issues: o Press ‘L’ to see your current latency including o AvgReq: Package transport time + treatment of package o AvgServer: Server time to treat the package o dTS: Difference between server and client o Average InputTS: Average time between ‘sent’ o...
