can you still play city of heroes in 2018

We’re Ubisoft, we’ve acquired the IP, we have not created it… Fighting the nostalgic aura of Heroes 3 is like fighting the waves, ultimately futile. No matter what we do, we always stand in the shadows of Heroes 3.I’m OK with the reuse of art and audio assets from former games because it allowed for a larger scope, but, for various reasons, Heroes 7 ended up looking less modern and appealing than Heroes 6.A collection of features is not a Creative Vision – Heroes 7 lacked a “soul”.My own personal analysis is the following (not pointing fingers at anyone here, I’m also guilty as charged): That said, our initial intention for Heroes 7 was to make it the “Best Of” Heroes by involving the community and combining the most appreciated features from Heroes 1 to 6. I was proud to showcase it at the Gamescom, and I’m still thankful to Limbic and my fellow M&M colleagues at Ubisoft for their dedication in a time when we had very little love and support. In my opinion Trials By Fire was a better (if not perfect) illustration of what we really intended for Heroes 7. The game had severe technical bugs, and artistic and design flaws that could have been fixed given some extra months of polish. After months of interacting with the Shadow Council members and listening to their feedback, we pushed the game’s release when all the fans were raising the red flag. What went wrong? To put it bluntly our biggest mistake was to ship the game too early in spite of the community’s warning. In terms of sales and popularity it definitely wasn’t a hit. Heroes 7 received mixed or average reviews ranking a Metacritic score of 67 with reviewers and 4.9 with users.

Let’s get the hard ones out of the way first.
