    What happens when people complain that a game is too difficult and people say it's just impossible to beat the AI? Well it sounds like it's time for a pro exploiter in the form of me the Spiffing Brit to reveal the best strategy in the form of video game glitches and bugs that break the Ballance of the game and turn an impossible game into a walk in the park. Today we are playing heroes hour which is one of my favourite games and as always I like a challenge so we are playing on hardcore+ with all the advanced difficulty settings also turned up to impossible game levels!
    so it's time for me to flex my exploit skills and break the game with infinite money, infinite money and infinite skills. My power is unstoppable and I will defeat this impossible challenge with all of my cheats and tips and tricks that exist for us exploiters! Who knew this songs of conquest gameplay could be broken by recruiting the cheapest units! The rats! But hey its an indie game so what can you do its not homm!
    What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.

    BUT...in one mission that fleet was IMPOSSIBLY HUGE!
    seriously, in that game the size of your fleet is limited by the number of planets you control, and that AI's "reinforcement fleet" was THREE TIMES BIGGER THAN YOU COULD LEGALLY HAVE IF YOU CONTROLED EVERY PLANET ON THE MAP!
    which i DID!
    ZERO chance of winning.

      @JohnDoe-vm5rb Před rokem +13

      Ai inherently cheats. It's controlled by the program which by it's nature knows everything. the trick is making it not cheat blatantly, to let players recover and/or be obnoxious about the cheating.
      Then there is the very simple "making a good ai is hard". Cheating is easier, faster and less resource intensive than a good ai, ignoring costs of getting even made.
      As for why? I know a lot of players, including myself, enjoy overcoming odds. The kiss of death is when you realise the ai is blatantly, "unfairly" cheating, like an army magically appearing outside a town that doesn't even have buildings to make them in total war

    Glad to see Your video on my newfound TBS. It was Glorious and I am also glad I won't get rat plague from not clicking a like among the first 10k for once :P
    This game really is something else from HoMM3. Just wait to discover how broken spells are. They can rend army based heroes/wielders helpless, the only counters are specific artifacts or A single maxed up skill you need to luck out on first (or a rare talent) AND you can cheese out those spell via units/skills/boosts/artifacts before the enemy can make A move. Love it! :D

    "unfair or ungodly unfair" reminds me of a few oldie RTS games i grew up with. finally i've beaten original C&C; but man. there's some out there that really you have to go above and beyond in to get ahead.

    Nice how this game keeps true to its roots in some way.
    In Heroes 5 one of the strongest units also was the tier 1 of undeads. Though there it was skeleton archers that you could fairly easily get insane amounts of to one shot anything else from range. Plus, in case you lost a few hundreds...just resurrect them with a spell that one certain hero started with.
    (this was, until they nerfed the necromancer ability to be near useless)

    This reminds me of my best Magic: The Gathering deck. It was called, very simply, The Rat deck. All the creatures were rats that were cheap and quick to cast, and all the spells/enchantments were based around buffing the crap out of them. Ironically the Plague Rats are what really made the deck. Hard to kill off a 24/25 Plague Rat that keeps sending hordes of lesser rats to block everything. XD The game has changed a lot so not sure it would work as well now, but it was great fun back in the day.

  • @ericb3157
    @ericb3157 Před rokem

    I just remembered an old game i have called "Warlords 3".
    it's a turn-based game with lots of different units, and one of them is Giant Rats.
    BUT in that game, giant rats have an odd ability called "banding", which makes them stronger IF you have a bunch of them in ONE stack.
    (no stack can have more than 8 of anything, BUT a city could hold 32)
    so having 5 or 6 rats, an "officer" unit that gives every unit in the stack a "morale" bonus, AND a "Hero" that gives every unit in the stack a "leadership" bonus, and you've got a pretty powerful team.
    add in a unit with the "fear" ability (reduces enemy morale) and you've REALLY got something.

  • @laffy7204
    @laffy7204 Před rokem

    This reminds me a bit of me playing Stick Wars in middle school. You get Sword guys first, but they end up being one of the best and strongest in the game because of their speed and minimal cost
    Just by manually controlling one measly swordsman, you can bully the AI into premature defence, allowing you to get ahead in men and resources.
    Additionally, a manually controlled Sword guy can take down miners, take down archers, take down mages, distract giants, distract Spartans distract mages. They can do it all

    *Sips Coffee Defiantly* Rat decks were always a threat back when I played MTG. It's funny how they are just as threatening in other games as well, and this one, in particular, had enough of Spiff's BS to toss the table.
