Might and Magic Heroes VI Gold vs Complete??

[Iron Ghost]

Over on gamersgate, there is a "coming soon" version of Might and Magic Heroes VI Complete Edition.

http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-MMH6CE/might-and-magic-heroes-vi-complete-edition

Looking at the "key features" on both the Gold and Complete versions, both look very similar with some re-wording on the Complete Edition's key features. Is there a real difference between these versions to make it worth a purchase? Is it better to wait for it to be released as opposed to buying the Gold Edition now (since its on sale on gamersgate)?

Does Complete include the regular or deluxe version of the base game? And if it does not, is that a significant difference?

[Pheace]

Since Complete isn't on sale people really shouldn't consider it at all. Buying Gold seperately on sale now + the full retail Shades of Darkness is cheaper than Complete at the moment.

The complete version includes everything while the gold edition does not contain the pre order bonuses.. the list is as follow for complete:

Campaigns:
Heroes VI main game
DLC1: Pirates of the Savage Sea
DLC2: Danse Macabre
Addon: The Shades of Darkness

Exclusive Scenarios:
The Heart of Nightmares (from the Collector's/Deluxe Edition)
The Succession Wars (from the Gold Edition)
The Princess of VARN (part of DLC1)
A Tale of two Guardians (part of DLC2)

Heroes:
Aguirre (from the Collector's/Deluxe Edition)
Sveltana (from the Collector's/Deluxe Edition)
Yume (from the Collector's/Deluxe Edition)
Kraal (from various game editions, also a pre-order bonus for the main game)
Akasha (pre-order bonus for the main game)
Belketh (pre-order bonus for Shades of Darkness)

Dynasty Weapons:
Staff of Asha’s Eightfold (from various game editions, also a pre-order bonus for the main game)
Staff of Cleansing (from the Collector's/Deluxe Edition)
Edge of Chaos (Twitter contest, pre-order bonus for the main game and Shades of Darkness)
Perfect Silksword (Heroes of Might and Magic Kingdoms promotion, Twitter contes, pre-order bonus for Shades of Darkness)
Staff of Sar-Aggreth (Heroes VI promotion, pre-order bonus for Shades of Darkness)
Dragon Flametongue (pre-order bonus for Shades of Darkness)
Dragonbone Staff (pre-order bonus for Shades of Darkness)

So it's a matter of wether you want everything, or no goodies but cheaper price during the sale. I don't know if those bonuses are nice to have, if someone could comment on that?

If you want my opinion the list on your post for me means simply player harrassing (milkiing money).
If you add

1: the horrible DRM that fails to connect to the server and does not let you continue the single player campaign.

2: the infinte list of bugs and crashes never properly addressed after 2 years.

3: the fact that 6 is the worst game of the franchise even if it worked.

The result is: my personal suggestion is leave the title altogether.

So the "Complete Edition" of Might & Magic: Heroes VI includes all those items/heroes and scenarios even if they were special and only accessible with deluxe/pre-order or some other edition? Do you have anything to prove that? Because that is not mentioned anywhere officially.

And if you already have the Gold Edition and wanted to have the stuff that is included in the Complete Edition also - how would you go about that ? Do you have to buy the whole game again then ?
