What should the new race for WCIV be?
Naga
Murloc
High Elf
TranquilNightElf

Well High Elves would be too similar to the elves we've already had.. I mean they are still the same elves that fight for the alliance .. unless you want to transform them and have them tap into really arcane magicks...but still it would be a converted race for me.
I'd have chosen murloc as they've really not been explored as a playable race in the game at all, and hence would be fresh and new, but dang they are sooo weak compared to the others.
Meh. Naga for me .

Naga no question because of their AWSOME neutral hero which I think speaks for the rest of the race!
Naga is my final answer!

I selected Murlocs. They have only 3-4 units that we've seen so far, so I think that's not qualifications to rule them out...the Murloc heroes could be really entertaining.
Naga already have enough stuff to become a race; in fact, I believe in one of the single-player campaign levels, they had a base and everything!
High Elves, as TranquilNightElf said, would be too similar to previous Elves. Elves, Blood Elves, then this?

As much as I like murlocs, it does not cover the fact that they kinda suck. I've made several tries to make them a race, though I still want to focus on the Draenei. They are what I would want to be the new race for WC IV. But out of these, I chose Naga.
Fucking Murlocs baby! How sweet would that be? REAL sweet!

Nagas own murlocs. Why do you think naga slaves are murlocs?

Unless you can come up with a way to make murlocs more powerful, then naga is the best out of the three. Besides they were playable only for a few missions

High elves are hardly a playable race. Theres like 6 unique units and no unique hero. OoOo what a race. Nagas are almost complete, they just need a more diverse unit tree.

Murlocs don't have a hero. That will have to change...
Also, all of their units use the same model. They're just skinned differently.

I think warcraft 4 is just gonna screw us over again by pulling another race out of the ground. But since that's completely off topic, GO MURLOCS!

because the myrmidons look frigging SWEET!
although i feel sorry the murloc slaves (poor little albinos with headlamp eyes :P)

Naga all they they are partly developed and could definatly be better and I want to play as them for 1v1's and 2v2's
besids the mulocks could just be a part of the naga like the blood elves are part of the humans.
yeah, they currently are - i just like murlocs

Should have had more selections, but thats allright.
Out of the three I would pick both the Naga and the Murloc's as a single race, have the murlocs be like peons and/or the basic soldiers. Nagas could be the big guys and the heros and such.

I hope you guys know that naga are a playable race in warcraft 3. You just go into the world editor and make them selectable, then u can use them on the map that you configure it for....

I would like to see the High Elves actually. In my other post, I've written up an army list for them (note, I've edited it from last time). Naga are a fun idea, but they need more Heroes besides the Sea Witch. How about a Priestess of Azshara, a Sea Duke, and a Mur'Gul Taskmaster? And they need an ultimate unit? The Royal Guard (trainable in a Seapalace maybe?)

if it wasnt going to be one of these for a choice, i'd want to have a different sort of race.
A Race of Fire Creautres, i think . They'd have villager units similar to wisps, but they burn trees to get wood. They would be able to get gold from mines like humans or orcs. There buildings would create an area similar to blight, but it would do damage to enemies instead of heal friendly units. The buildings would heal themselves over time, and they could also heal other units like moon wells.
The soldiers would be varied from heavy combat to light ranged, but would all have the same metabolism. If they cross water, they take damage and cannot fight in the water. They can all self destruct, but some do more damage than others. They can burn trees to recover health, and some can shadowmeld.
But i digress, and got bored and chose high elves...

hmm, I think that is a pretty good start. It incorporates the other races attributes in a fire sort of way. I would say that they could attack in water but it would be reduced sort of like cover in Dawn of War.

Naga.
The Naga would be much more original, in particular a combination of Naga and the Murlocs. However obviously much would have to be altered to both of them, in particular they're ability to swim and the fact that all their buildings are on water, and some tiers, etc. If they materialised, I would expect their race to be somewhere between human and orc - being half between casters and heavy melee.
Edit - Maybe, what about a race that was an extension of orc - a very heavy melee completely-beast civilisation who had few casters and maybe just one good anti-caster? A "Megafauna" race or something? (except a different name)

The Naga are the coolest, plus, their melee units are powerful.:)
It came between the high elf and naga. I choose the naga because they have much better units and could be a very popular race to play. The High Elf would not be as popular because they are mostly archers which i like but i dont think anyone would choose that. But the High Elf have cool houses and there towers look nice too lol. To me the murlocs look boring but thats just me :)
In the end it was the Naga

i'd choose murlocs but you have to make an upgrad that makes them stronger or something like that! (maybe that the grow an have more hitpoints an attack) cause else they really suck!

You would have to change a lot, i.e. give them at least one air unit, and make them have Tiers, rather then have everything with just one tier.

This Is To All The Idots That Said That The Murlocs Suck. If The Murlocs Where Made A Race They Would Most Like Build Fast Than The Other Races To Fill In For There Weekness So You Could Build Fast And There Heros Would Be A Very Nice Adishon To The Game Just Like Evil_pizza0 Said There Are The Naga And Elves Already Have Be Made God!!!!!!!!!1

Pfffffff FUCK ELVES(Pfff elves wtf there already are elves now wtf making more of them), FUCK NAGAS(u already have nagas for Christ sake), da best choice is murloc(with many and I mean !MANY! changes in attacks, buildings, looks, and stuff like that cuz all murloc look the same just diferent color and size).I personally think that the new race shoudnlt be one of those 3, I think that new race should be dwarfes and i mean dwarfs like every other race in wc3 tft or roc(tiers, buidlings, upgrades etc. etc.) THAT'S MY OWN OPINION!

10-22-2005, 7:23 PM
number 1. Y do u always say THATS MY OWN OPINION at the end of each post guzmunka?
number 2. the murlocs r the naga slaves and therefore would have to be catagorized with the naga.
number 3. there r already high elves, blood elves,and night elves so y add another 1?
so the only reasonable answer IMO would be Naga.
personally i believe that all the subraces should be made seperate and just share some units in capaigns but since this thread is about wich 1 is best choice i dont think there is much to argue about.simple process of elimination

Yes, but we always know that what you say is your own opinion/interpretation - you only need add "IMO" if you're saying something which might offend someone... ;)

Naga would be the best race as an add-on... however, the NSW is already a Tavern Hero. What would they do about that?
Mr.Bad
10-23-2005, 2:08 PM
the dark ranger is to and it is technicly a undead im not sure but maybe it could just be an unbuildable hero like the darkranger

murloc!!!
anyways, if you play the monolift senario, you might have a chance to fight
the murlocs. with the hero, the buildings and everything.
p.s. i take the orcs,then hire a dark ranger,level it up to level 6 and charm a builder
and saw it for myself.:_owned: :_owned: :_owned: :banana: :bananaroc

You can also use banshees spell (fuck cant remember the name) to take one of those builders in monolit or elsewhere.:o

The dark ranger might be undead, but is not technically "allied" to them, or has loyalty towards them - assuming that the campaign is the basis for the real game (which isn't correct).
This is different to the NSW, who should probably be taken out of the tavern and given to the Naga, although maybe receiving a buff in some way?
