These meetings could help maps get actually good reviews like they used to, 5 or 6 years ago.

FlameofChange · Mar 31, 2015

ugh, you play my map wrong xD
Primitives need many burrow to give income, workers and wood ( it's a wood deposit). They must expand every-where, i know their buildings are weak and expensive, but with your strong economy it's not a problem.

At start you build 2 burrows and bring all diggers to the wood/Rocks, continue to build burrows along trees in your base. If your wood/Gold rise to high, begin only at this moment to train a defense army.

The first Noob error is to build a barrack and some units at first, after he don't have enough economy to grow fast. Also a player who develop his economy can easy counter a rush of a "Noob"

That's for next plays on my map, if you develop your economy you can be very brutal at Macro-Management.

jopi · Mar 31, 2015

Ok, nice info, but still a bit 'boring' or at least not that intense.

One reason for this is the way economy works, this on the other hand is ok, it's how the map works. Still you might think of giving the different races different ways to increase income.

Also some side objectives, like temples you can capture to buff your army or that give income/resources might make the map more interesting, as it encourages players to do something from the start instead of only sitting in base and build up economy.

bhusta · Mar 31, 2015

I did not get what you meant with burrows, because the building which uses the orc burrow model was just a barricade.
But now I get it. The chimera roosts are these burrows. xD
I did not see that it increases the income. Maybe you should highlight it in red. The yellow color is a little bit too neutral.

CaterpillarCake · Apr 1, 2015

Hi! I'm not really sure what to say! I haven't been playing wc3 recently for the past few years and when I decided to try playing it again, I was sad to find the custom games section pretty dead. So I guess I am looking for a place to play some cool custom games!

Where do you guys meet and at what time usually?

I also have my own map to contribute to this too!
Tower Wars

It would be pretty cool to play this map again!

It can be played as FFA or Teams. Despite the title, the game is not a TD.
You try to build various towers to kill your opponents builder. Its very micro intensive! You get gold over time, but most of your gold comes from killing enemy towers so that it encourages an offensive playstyle.

The game is very fun if you enjoy games that demand quick fingers!

Oraien · Apr 6, 2015

Wait, garena works? Last time i look at it it couldn't play any game :\

jopi · Apr 6, 2015

no as far as I heard garena does not work (I myself never used garena). The last times I was there we used a host bot on normal B.net.

Gismo359 · Apr 6, 2015

Garena still works but you cant play from some countries anymore, so you will have to use some kind of workaround if you dont have a LAN button (E:You cant join the funmap evening from garena, if thats what youre asking). Personally, I never had a problem with it

bhusta · Apr 6, 2015

I think WaterKnight just forgot to remove it from the first post.

Wietlol · Apr 7, 2015

"We hope that Wietlol will join us this time!"
Joining is not the problem... staying connected is.

bowser499 · Apr 7, 2015

Imma joining that on april 11. :D

A]mun · Apr 9, 2015

Happy to join as well.

What is the current mappool like?

edit: might bring a friend or two.

bhusta · Apr 9, 2015

The map pool varies a lot.

These are maps which are played more regularly.

But everyone can suggest maps during the evening.

This time is special because of the http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/arena-226/wc3-fun-mapmaking-challenge-244869/ .
Those maps will have high priority.

bhusta · Apr 11, 2015

You can join the chat now.

A]mun · Apr 12, 2015

godaym i missed it, maybe next time :/

Wietlol · Apr 12, 2015

-_- i missed it too... kind of
during the first game, my network went completely down
couldnt even say that in chat

Eikonium · Apr 15, 2015

I would like to join you next time.
Can you tell its date already?

And, beside being up for nearly everything (except dota), I would like to play a new map of mine with you, Stone Scissors Paper Tower Wars.

What form do I have to fill in to officially suggest it?

Hey everyone. Just a friendly reminder that my hosted project Against the Darkness has just been updated. I know you have plenty of mods to play through but I'd appreciate if you at least throw AtD into your rotation. If anyone wants to play a relatively short, fun hunter vs hunted style map then you'll have one ready to go. Thanks!

Ralle · May 13, 2015

That would be fun

TheWhitePianoKey · May 18, 2015

Any idea when the next event will be? I had to miss all the last ones

Kam · May 25, 2015

I would also like to know!

Ralle · May 26, 2015

Eikonium · May 27, 2015

Not again on the only saturday, where I can't manage to come

I will probably join for a game or two.

I would also like to put
Stone Scissors Paper Tower Wars 1.1
on the play-list

Nice! I recommend going old school and having a human play as the Death Knight. I've always felt it's a little more fun that way. However, if you all want to play as Hunters then you can set the Death Knight to a Computer and play against AI. You should have a good time either way.

A]mun · May 29, 2015

btw, how long do these events last usually?

Planning to join around midnight, guess i'll find out later.

WaterKnight · May 30, 2015

~4-5 hours, afterwards I fall asleep

Wietlol · May 30, 2015

is it still online?
actually... did it even start?

MiniMage · May 31, 2015

Would it be possible for me to hijack your bot for some good ol' betatesting of my map? Because trying to host things nowadays wont work that well for me.

WaterKnight · May 31, 2015

We had a solid evening lasting to around 2am. The bot we used was not mine, respectively my usual "bot" is just me hosting with tools on my PC, not from a permanent server.

You may ask Frotty in #inwc.de-maps-FA if you can use his oxbot (but he is not around all the time). Else I can suggest you makemehost or ENT hostin services. On makemehost you can request a mapmaking account to be able to upload your own maps, on ENT you can just register yourself and then can do it in your account settings.

Ralle · May 31, 2015

It was nice playing last night. God I was handicapped with that black minimap. Stupid Intel HD 4000 OpenGL. Thanks for gaming!

all the fun maps when Im not there ;(

Eikonium · Jun 1, 2015

Nice that you made youtube videos of all maps

I was surprised that you understood the Tower Wars map so well on the first go, and that without viewing the tutorial.
You did many things right (e.g. sending Jail creeps all the time), and few things wrong (which killed you in the end, sadly

mostly, because you were too lazy to read

).
I guess, our fellow players had more trouble on that

Too bad that I had to leave early that evening. I'll have more time on the next occasion hopefully.

I already created a comment in mi mind that I thought that you would say

Nice that you made youtube videos of all maps

Now I am able to clearly see what I am missing each time -_-

Eikonium · Jun 1, 2015

You did foresee my comment as well as me being its poster?

You have some supernatural skills indeed

Wietlol · Jun 2, 2015

Uhmm... no you misunderstood... but I see I have written it a bit weird as well

I meant:

When I read "Nice that you made youtube videos of all maps

", I thought about how the whole comment would be like and I came up with this:

"Nice that you made youtube videos of all maps

Now I am able to clearly see what I am missing each time -_-"

But then I read further and saw that you didnt wrote anything like that

Eikonium · Jun 2, 2015

All right, now I got it

bhusta · Jun 2, 2015

@Wietlol, at that time you asked if something is happening, you just could have joined the funmap evening chat. It still was going good.

@Eikonium, I just pressed random buttons of buildings I owned

I had a some instructions from the skype conference but I didn't really know if I loose or win the whole game.

Wietlol · Jun 2, 2015

But... I havent seen a link to the chatroom.
Ussually just before the funmap evening starts, waterknight posts the link to the chat room but I didn't see one.
So I went to regular chat and asked but noone was answering.
Edo494, which also used to be in the event, was there too and he didn't knew either.

edo494 · Jun 2, 2015

ah I didnt see you ask but the link to their chatroom is posted in here as the info to the next funmap. I would've joinned but was busy with physics

Wietlol · Jun 2, 2015

Yea, I got used to posts like this.
Just now I see that the link is also in these posts.

Eikonium · Jun 4, 2015

That explains some of your weirder actions, like that you researched all Alchemist upgrades without ever training an alchemist, or that you primarily upgraded your Explosive Tower, which does nothing after reaching 5 kills each round :cgrin:

However, you did very well concerning other important aspects, and I can't yet believe that you didn't do anything on purpose :cgrin:
