[Campaign] Rise of the Horde

[Hardtime]

WWe actually have plans for the buildings already. They're all custom made. I can post pics of some of them.

 

[Chen]

Nice!

 

[kakuzu]

I would like to see the frostwolf techtree .

 

[Wolffman]

Patience is key.. We'll put it out soon...

 

[Hardtime]

Starting today, I'll be having my break from school. That means I can finally work on the tech-tree, the basic terrain, supervise the modeling team, and finish the chapter scripts. Images of our work will be coming in a week and the descriptions will be updated later.

 

[Hantoo]

and the Modeler is still... Sealed...

 

[Hardtime]

Its okay man we'll be waiting for you

 

[Hantoo]

1 Model From me

 

[Hardtime]

Actually, you edited quite a lot of models xD

 

[Hantoo]

what? But I see only one there O.O
am I brainwashed or something?

 

[Hardtime]

Oh right I forgot I had some of the models way before I met you xD we need a re-worked Peacekeeper because I think the model kinda sucks. What do you think? Any opinion?

 

[Hantoo]

if it is a small edit, i can do it now... Heavy Job Works after my exam

 

[Hantoo]

Wait.. Chimera? not Rylaks?

 

[The_Legion]

Umm, Hey guys... I was wondering, since you guys don't seem to like the peacekeeper model that model, might I suggest an Edited Eredar Warlock model that has the Proudmoore model's attack animation and a sword. Also, if we're sticking with the Rylack Idea instead of the Chimaera one, might I suggest a more Wolf-ish head instead of the traditional NE Chimaera heads.

Plus, Boss, could you post the tech tree for the frostwolf clan on the first post.

 

[Wolffman]

^ The Rylak thing...I Have been suggesting that for sooo long xD
Hayate! Hear us! Two Wolf heads! Do it!

 

[Footman16]

For the Peacekeeper would this model do you?

i though i done that already?

 

[MogulKahn]

I am not 100% sure, but I think that guy has awful animations... I think there is the another one on that russian site...

 

[Hantoo]

if I got the Permission, i can animate Reanimate it

 

[Hardtime]

Forgot to re-name it heh sorry xD It should be called Rylak. We'll use a timber version of it while the Frostwolf Rylak will be made by The_Legion.

 

[HerrDave]

First time I've seen this page, and I find it quite nice in an unexplainable way that most of the team's icons are that of different variants of orc.

-Fel
-Mag'har
-Fel
-Uruk
-Sea Giant
-Fel
-Fel
-Ogre
-Chaos

Good Model sucky animations :C

 

[Templassassin]

hey can i give you a suggestion?
Rylak is too Orcish for the draenei

 

[Sclammerz]

Question: is Dusk of the Nether a project?

 

[Hardtime]

It's the only known flying beast on Draenor that can take a punch other than the Kaliris and the Dread Ravens.

those rylak are Frostwolf clan's beast
you can give draenei a flying spirit for the flying unit

 

[Wolffman]

I think you have that very very wrong..

Rylaks are wild beast found across Draenor, they are not only associated with any ONE clan..

Also, to cancel any further misconception, what is with the flying spirit thing? everyone keeps suggesting flying spirit as a flying unit.. WHAT FLYING SPIRIT?
In the lore, there is no presence of a "Flying Spirit" in the Draenor or in Draenei culture..

sorry for my mistake...

flying spirit... i think it will be like draenei ancestors who killed when the orcs massacre them

 

[Hardtime]

You mean something associated with the Auchenai? Nahh I think we'll leave the Flyers and Beasts to the Rangari

 

[The_Legion]

Why not something a bit techy-flying unit like some sort of gyrocopter?

P.S. Okay before anyone says that ain't lorewise, remember the part where in "we flew on a ship made out of metal that can travel through worlds" quote by Restalaan

 

[Hantoo]

better bbcode ahh... now with table.. so nice

 

[Chen]

Yeah, Dimensional Airship like what Ujimasa did.

Well, you're kind of right, but then a bit wrong, the dimensional ships are used by the Draenei. But here's a quote of Metzen explaining why they're not the kind of aerial unit you're thinking them to be..

- To be clear, we're not talking about having the Millennium Falcon cruising around the Twisting Nether. The draenei 'nether-ship' you've been hearing about is far more than it seems. It's part of a larger dimension-traveling fortress called Tempest Keep that essentially teleports through alternate realities. It doesn’t bank and roll or shoot proton torpedoes. - Chris Metzen

So, to summarize, the ships you are talking about, are either huge cities , which have defense systems, and the ability to teleport through the nether or parts of the cities, which have the same things, so it wont be possible to integrate a city/part of a city as a flying unit..

What CAN be integrated from this idea, is Draenei space-pods, which are extremely smaller versions of the dimensional ships. I'm not sure however, how they will work out.

Here is one Idea I completely blew over though, Moths/Wasps. Draenor has many insectoid life, including Moths and Wasps, And there has been a few circumstances, where Moths are used by the Draenei.. So..

Actually those botanic life that live on Draenor attack anyone who they come across with xD they're basically walking Venus flytraps. Plus I was thinking on adding them to the Arakkoa xD

Sorry I wasn't referring to the Satellite they took from the blood elves in outland, but the Naaru used to save the uncorrupted eredar back on Argus

 

[Wolffman]

Sorry I wasn't referring to the Satellite they took from the blood elves in outland, but the Naaru used to save the uncorrupted eredar back on Argus

:I Tempest Keep IS the ship the Naaru used..
You've got it mixed up. The blood elves took Tempest Keep after the Third War, when they went with Illidan, and the Naaru used Tempest Keep to save the Eredar a long time before the First War..


So, year -10
Naaru take Eredar to Draenor in the Tempest Keep

and year 30
Kael takes over a dormant Tempest Keep with his Blood elven allies..

Actually those botanic life that live on Draenor attack anyone who they come across with xD they're basically walking Venus flytraps. Plus I was thinking on adding them to the Arakkoa xD

Add Kaliri to Arrakoa, it's where they belong, and add Moths to Draenei.. Or keep the Rylaks..

Oh alright then XD, thanks for clarifying that little mistake

 

[Hardtime]

I was thinking of some sort of captured Kaliri unit for the Horde. I was planning to ask Hayate to add some chains to it While retaining their original thing with the Arakkoa.

Yeahhh we're keeping the Rylaks Dont wanna re-think about the Draenei tech-tree to much right now since I might lose track of the Frostwolves

 

[kakuzu]

So everythings go well , guys ?

 

[Wolffman]

It's going pretty well @kakuzu

We're probably going to release the Frostwolf Techtree soon...

 

[Tauer]

Huh, this sounds interesting! Hadn't noticed this before! I always wanted to play a RoTH campaign.

This makes me wanna get back to modeling x)

You should We may be in need of your wondrous Orc model making...

 

[Hardtime]

Yep xD hope you update that epic Durotan of yours sorry we're not using it man because the animations don't quite fit WC3. Everyone's running while Durotan's walking xD

EDIT:

So, I've recently started working on the loading screens. Im trying to make them look like the original ones like in Warcraft 3. Im adding a top and bottom border, then with a smudgy background. For the right side, of course there should be an icon and the description of each map. Then Im gonna add an illustration to the left side that depicts what the map will be like. Here are some eye catching previews. Please comment your suggestions.

Not bad actually. But i think the horde should use a different banner.

What do you suggest?

 

[sonofjay]

Frostwolf's Loading Screen is just awesome <3 <3 <3! Good job! You'll make them as HD loading screen? I hope so since it is a Campaign and Filesize isn't really a problem oh and I hope you will not mind releasing them(the version with no preview and description) for those who might like to use them as wallpaper when let us say after releasing the map.
