Heroes of the Storm Alpha!

Thanks for the updates on how to try the tutorial. It's quite nice to enjoy at least such a small part while we are waiting for any beta announcements.
I have used Toms tool to try switching the map and seems like its a tutorial + 1 1v1 map, I'm wondering does the game even have the "normal" pvp maps or it's just an issue switching to them at this point?

They don't exist, at least not in the same fashion.

These are the only three .StormMap files included with the game right now. There are scattered assets lying around for the other maps. It shouldn't be hard to do WAY more once the file format is reversed.

I noticed that since there are only 3 maps atm, does that mean this version of alpha client doesn't even have those other 3 game modes, or is it because we can't connect to their server to get a later version of the game?

This is the error that pops up!



I have a question for you guys that can run the game, do you have StarCraft 2 Installed on your PC?

That's cool, I'm patient enough to wait for the real beta, was just wondering overall.

I do but I doubt that matters for Heroes.

Also, someone has managed to get the test map working and are using stitches.

Right now I think you can only play Practice, so 5 vs 5 AI.

Use the map switch tool

Extract music played poorly or can not be played, because it is converted to a format WAV, codec IMA ADPCM, 48 000 kHz, 32-bit float, compressed music, therefore it is not usual player to listen, in general it is necessary to recode ...

Use the map switch tool

Btw you don't need to hammer F10 to open the menu. Just select the email editbox, hit Tab twice such that the checkbock gets focused and then you should be able to open the menu with F10 as this command will be sent to the game and not the editboxes.

I'm downloading SC2 just in case, because it doesn't stops giving me the error popup..
