A Warcraft 2 Tides of Darkness remake created by Lord Perenolde II that includes the WC2 interface, tilesets, unit models, music, and spells. The oil system HAS been recreated and the intro briefings now are accompanied by cinematics. I am playing the 'Enhanced Mode', which changes the player's subfaction each act of the campaign. Each subfaction has their own perks and distinct traits. Some maps may be changed with different starting conditions.
CANNOT BE PLAYED ON VERSION 1.29 OR HIGHER

Couldn't be more happy that this series started!
I didn't want to remake these campaigns at first, because I knew what kind of hell I was going to go through(and I was right!) but when I found a few people that teamed up for me, including Azazzello(the creator of a dead Russian wc2 project called Warcraft 2 Rebirth), a couple of terrainers and a modeler that scripted the whole Oil System for me,I decided that it was about time!
Intros and outros of each campaign are property of another wc2 remaker: Helldoom, who agreed to let me use them, so I polished and enriched them with the current assets you see.
Intro briefings and the many loading screens(screenshots from Warcraft 2 The Dark Saga from Ps1) are my idea and I can never stress how proud I am to have included them. Cinematics in between Acts are my own creation as well and you'll see how well they link with the briefings.
For all other curiosities and general explanations(including the Enhanced Mode) I invite you all to read them on the download page if you'd like to find out more.
A BIG "Thank you" to you, Jay, and to your awesome viewers. You all are the main reason why I got inspired to remake this game back 5 years ago!
You should really change the footman models, the azerothian footman still looks like krap til this day without the animated portraits.
nevertheless still a proper update to helldoom's original releases.
@@knightofthenine3121 i still like them for how faithful they are to the old warcraft, expecially with their bright swords and crossed shields. Unfortunately I'm no modeler so I can't get their portrait to talk. They also blend nicely with other footman models such as the Stromgardian. Anyway I don't feel like I got anything better than that at the moment.
Dude, you can't imagine, how glad I am you did this! Your remake of Warcraft I was on freaking top! It was literally Warcraft: Orcs and Humans. Near exactly.
If I didn't have to buy reforge just to play WC3 on my Disc-less PC, i'd be playing the shit out of this custom campaign.
Any reason you choose to remake this in the WC3 engine instead of StarCraft II? Familiarity or is there a better reason?
Oh yes, The start of the human campaign
At least it's not "The Defense of Strahnbrad" for the millionth time...
I thought Warcraft 2 was terribly difficult. But then I was a kid when I played it. But the music and voice acting in that game are INSANE.
Ah yes, fond memories. Only minus, it crashed at inopportune times a bit. Edit to add - the expansion is indeed difficult.
Beyond the Dark Portal is legitimately quite difficult imo(even today). The original campaigns are in general pretty easy if you understand how to defend your base efficiently (esp against ships and flying units later on) as most maps are just spam ogres/knights -> spam gryphons/dragons like Jay was eluding to. That being said, wc2 is the first rts I ever played as a kid and it absolutely demolished me.
I just finished it last week at 17 and it still felt pretty hard. Seemed like you just had to get the right order of actions to not get destroyed in some missions
@@nickburose8286 Yea, I'd say in general the biggest thing you need to be careful of is resource management since as Jay said they can be pretty scarce. There's a couple particularly scary ones like the original The Tomb of Sargeras where you start with basically nothing and are continuously hounded by ships.
Dark Portal is no joke. A few Tides missions are quite difficult and like Ernesto said I believe Tomb of Sargeras is the toughest. For that mission remember that catapults outrange ships while the AI will sit idle at the coastline and take the shots.
Thanks for these videos, custom campaigns take a lot of work and it's great that someone gives them visibility on youtube. All of us who create this type of content appreciate it.
As a custom map/campaigns user, thanksfor putting in all the good work!
Sounds like the perfect time to start the beyond the dark portal campaign
Ah yes, good old Warcraft 2 Tides of Darkness.
I grew up with playing that game in the 1990s.
When my childhood was pretty bad, I went over to my shared bedroom to play WC2 from off my gaming CD and place into my new CD-ROM.
Nowadays, I have the same game that I can play at any time from my GOG gaming library in digital format so I can relieve my gaming life.
Thank you for sharing this, Jayborino!
Keep on playing the game the way you want!
Don’t know u man but u feel like my damn brother sheesh reading ur comment was relatable as hell
Also I use steamunlocked as long as u are computer smart and can avoid the viruses I’ve played most of the games on gog for free and I I have it downloaded to my laptop
Naval warfare is a little more difficult when you can't easily abuse the bad AI and ship targeting mechanic. :p
Wowee that's a nice surprise! Captain on the bridge!
You are too underated my friend, I hope you will get 100k followers asap because you really deserve it.
I remember playing this on my dad's computer I found that the town hall looked like a layer cake
I really hope that the guys who are making remake of this game with Reforged will eventually get the campaign done
And yeah, you're gonna tear your hair out when you have to deal with the oil system
I hope that creators of "Chronicles of the Second War" will also do subfactions within Alliance's nations/Horde's clans or something similar.
@@user-yy5di3qg5u
They said that they want to implement a dwarf faction with their own story
@Numbered--Weighed--Divided
I know, I know, but they definitly aint gonna go small if they continoue. That could be their demise too, but hope is always there
@@tumate45 LoreCraft Designs is thier chanel to update us on what they are doing look in the community stuff
Subfaction's are such an excellent idea.
10:19 hovers over 'Build Town Hall' as he says you can't build one in this mission... 😆
The man, the myth, the legend... Bill Roper.
Right, this is more for viewers than for Jay, because (behind the scenes peek) he's already recorded most of the way through the campaign at this point.
The Enhanced Mode may not be intended to be a "Hard Mode" in the same way as a regular Hard Mode, but the twists Enhanced Mode adds to each mission *absolutely will* make things harder overall in the long run. But we're not looking at another "Warcraft 1 Hard Mode" like Jay remembers. I honestly really enjoyed the varied factions' tech trees - some of them are more intricate and require a bit of finesse, but overall, they're really fun.
Warcraft 2 and the entirety of the 2nd war was peak warcraft
Soon i will play Warcraft 2 campaigns in Warcraft III
Woah I played WC2 back when I was a kid, and I can't remember much about it apart from the naval combat. Completely forgot oil was a thing.
Should be fun watching Jay play this remake and seeing what the Enhanced Mode has to offer.
Peasants return 60 resources? In Warcraft II, I'm pretty sure it was 100
In Warcraft 2, there was a mining delay as workers entered the gold mine and also the town hall. The 60 per return emulates the same rate of collection AFAIK.
They did, but maybe it's the upkeep system from Warcraft 3 being implemented
@@JayborinoPlaysYeah, you're right. That makes sense
jay when you went to place down a farm it made the StarCraft 1 depot sound
Warcraft Mass Recall
me -> See's Title.
"Brace for transport ship complaining!"
xD! hahaha One of Jays most hated enemies.
Ferrying men across water!
Ah, thank you, was meaning to check this out, I'll add in edit if it works on 1.29.2/1.31 versions that I got. Speaking of dark portal portion, be extra prepared if and when the time comes for you to play it, for it asks you to do things fast the moment you get to control your units(and to use them with extra care on micro missions).
Nice video. sure gives the Warcraft 2 vibes
Jay, regarding the 4:3 display, there is a widescreen mod on nexusmods. Maybe it squishes perspective a bit but I wouldn't know because I'm so used to it. ^^
Give it a try maybe
NO 4:3 RATIO MAY REPEL ME FROM SUCH AN AWESOME MOD FOR WC2 REWORK!! PLEASE CONTINUE WITH FERVOUR!
The return of the Hero Catapult who held the line against the gigantic naval fleet of Juggernauts coming soon?
Im waiting for the complete version of chronicle of the second war. That project is really sick if you see their progress.
You know I've never played WC2. WC1 and WC3 have surprisingly dissonant stories so I'm looking forward to seeing what I've missed.
Story wise (in so far as there's one in the game itself as most of the lore came in the manual back then), and even abiance and tone wise, it's defintively closer to WC1 than 3.
One thing I loved about the designs in Warcraft II over III's was the design of a lot of the buildings. I mean, the Town Hall actually looks like a small castle here, with turrets, a well, et cetera that you'd see being built in a wilderness region to establish a presence. Its counterpart in III looks like the central hubs of existing communities (which makes sense early on in the Eastern Kingdoms/the storyline setting there), but once you're in places like Kalimdor? Yeah, it just looked odd and out of place.
I also loved the sense of scale II had: it implied that Lordaeron was about the size of continental Europe, basically. And then in 3/WoW, I wouldn't even say the entire kingdom is the size of England with how quickly travel is. smh
When are you going to play the expansion?
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Typical Jay... we can't build townhalls in this mission, while hovering over the town hall^^
Could you share the link to the playlist for the remake of the first game playthrough in future descriptions?
Gotta say that was a cool cinematic, I liked the original but this was well done. I wonder if I'll be able to play since I have a really old version of the game. I still have Warcraft II but the graphics are a little iffy so it'd be nice to have the alternative--even if there's no expansion.
I love those reskinned peasants loading the cannons. Chop, chop, chop! Show those trees, erm cannons, what for!
militia? lol
so, Jayborino...
when are you gonna play the expansion?
I need my WC2 sfx. XD
"Yesh?" "Okae" "Yesh milord"
"At once, sire!" "Yes my Lord"
Will you be playing Wanderers of Sorceria? I noticed you've already got the first book downloaded :p
War 1? Rain of fire please
Unlike Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, Warcraft II (Battlenet Edition at least) aged relatively gracefully IMO, but it's always nice to see perfectly crafted remake mod.
I replayed Warcraft II during early pandemic era and it was fun, sure massing Knights/Ogres way too effective and I wonder how they solve this problem here.
Back when Orc are the big bad guy
It has a better cinematic than W3 Refund...
From what I remember the original amount of gold/wood/oil each trip gives you was 100, then it could be modified if you had a lumber mil, an oil refinery or upgrading the town hall. Noticed that the amounts you collect on this remake is a little bit different.
It’s because the workers don’t spend time inside the gold mine and the town hall the same like in WC2. The amount returned emulates the same rate of return as the original game based on the differences in travel time.
What a blast from the past looks great GG M8
Well I have an old version I found on a college computer almost 12 years ago... maybe the remake will work on that :D
Because I do like Warcraft 2 and have always wanted to see it remade or remastered or something.
I hear Blizzard has implemented custom campaigns into Reforged. I wonder if this will work now, or maybe will be updated soon?
Wait a second, how did you get into Classic WC3 again? I remember trying that, but forgot how.
Just had a thought: It was shown ever since Warcraft 2 in '95 in the trailer and in gameplay with ships, that they have access to cannons. Yet they still use catapults and ballistas for siege in game. Even in WC3. What's up with that? Any lore guy can answer?
I remember playing ANOTHER tides of darkness campaign. but it used wc3 mechanics, unlike this campaign. Don't remember the author tho
Spoiler alert, there is gonna be another war in this campaign
What? There's no way. Stop trolling!
@@Remnazuo ong no cap on a stack
The link you've provided...does that just bring me to the download page for Lord P II's human campaign, and not the actual game? Does one have to have the game installed on their system for this download to work? I've downloaded it, but have no idea what to do with .w3n file. Any aid with this issue would be sweet! Looking forward 2 trying this out!
Peace!
Is this original or semi updated remake w2? I hear Remake of warcraft 2 made by W3 engine is still under developed by fan made mod campaign and so far they only release Horde Orcs campaign Demo levels and main chapters but not Human Alliance campaign is still not playable but i hear it may come out at this year March but its not confirmed
More ❤️
WOW, jay sory dude i dont seee Wow. Can i sen you E mail, May man😃😃
can i play if i dont have original game?
❤
For one second I thought Lorecraft Designs released Chronicles of the Second War
Also, I'm so sorry, but I have to say this.... IIIIIT'S SHEEPYARD TIME, BOYS!!!
You need to level up if hard is VERY HARD for you
You should've re-uploaded this with fixed audio, can't hear the narration at all.
Not being able to disable pings is one of the most annoying things by being a Discord community admin.
howdy, there is a lot of talented people doing improves on warcraft games and Blizzard cant do something better. Reforge was a dissapointment. But you guys are the must do that hey didnt
Early
I found an excellent "remaster" of the actual War2 with a program called Wargus. You can play War2 in higher resolutions. It has other nice features with a menu in the program. It's sort of like Chaoslauncher for Starcraft 1. I had to use my WC2 cd key.
I played this WC2 mod in WC3 awhile ago and it's great. I didn't realize it has extra features though. I have to try it again.
Also I played this Tides of Darkness mod on 1.29.1 Not sure if everything works as intended because I ran through it with god mode just for fun. Didn't have any obvious problems but some things may be unbalanced IDK. Either way it didn't crash and it was really good.
