The terrain is really, really bad. Like really plain. You should fix that.

Aesthetics · Feb 16, 2011

It would be nice if it actually worked.

light bolt30 · Feb 17, 2011

You could at least use more than one tile variation or add doodads in the arena since just using a dirt tile is really dull.

>.< Not compatible with Ver 1.24

Well all maps must be playable with patch 1.24, and quite soon with 1.25...

How is that even possible?! I have version 1.24e and it worked perfectly fine when testing! I think it must have been the map optimizer that I used! I have uploaded a new one that should work. Please tell me whether it works...

Okay so it works now, but why does a mantle of intelligence give +3 agi and also I found on round 5 if you played solo and got surrounded by the kobolds you got what seemed like a perma stunlock >.< not fun.

EDit: it would be nice if the bots bought stuff as the game went on also round 15 doesn't teleport you back to the outside where you can buy stuff I also though 1 minute between rounds is a bit short for new players maybe start the round via everyone being "ready" or increase the time a little. Also I would Strongly suggest that the bots wait at least 30 sec to pick their heroes; I played with a friend who got pissed off because the bot picked his hero before he got a chance to.

Thanks for your Help!

Hi, thanks for the feedback!

- I just checked now and the Mantle of Intelligence does give +3 intelligence :eekani:

...
- I will change the special ability of the Kobolds to something without stun.
- I also just tested and you do get teleported back to base after level 15. Must have been some weird glitch...
- I changed it so that the bots pick 45 seconds into the game (forgot to change it from testing).
- I will add a "ready" function in the next version.

Map status: Approved
Good job dude!

Magnet199 · Mar 12, 2011

map seems interesting going to test, will give "Game Play" Feedback ONLY (no triggers)

EDIT: ok here is what i got:

The Bad Stuff:
- AI wont buy anything later on, that then he dies and leaves me alone fighting

- Bashes for the rusty pickaxe STACKS

- the kobold whatever their name is, epic perma bashes lol
- some items are just too powerful

- Not enough time between rounds

- AI CHOOSING MY HERO

- Players 2-4 cant choose their hero, unless they random :S

The Good Stuff:
- the terrain is not bad
- Heroes are unique dude ME LIKE

- Arena is not bad arena, but can be bigger

- and everything els i guess

Suggestions:
- more time to buy read and stuff like that
- AI choose hero little later
- balance the items

- more heroes babe (^^)
Will give more soon

Note:
the map is not bad and fun to play, i think the only problem right now is the items and the AI, i didnt play for long, my war3 crashed no idea why :S

Map is great:

Keep up the good work, dont stop working on it

secretgarden · Mar 13, 2011

it's interesting.
i think monsters are weak and rest time is short.
why don't you relocate fountain of life from right to left?

Darth_Malak · Mar 14, 2011

My Review

Points

Description =>7/10 (A bit Short but i think you said enough about it. There are screenshots too)

Gameplay => 6/10 (Some Heroes are really weak, like the Ice Queen)

Script => 8/10 (I think everything is working well, just i thought sometimes i had some lags. If there are leaks you should fix them)

Terrain => 3/10 (Ah, that's the bad point about your map. The Middle of the Arena is just too simple. You should change it, there also should be some Spots where u can Hide as Range Hero etc. You could also do more then 1 Arena, that can be chosen in the beginning )

AI => 3,5/5 (For this map is just a simple AI needed, but i think yours is working well, just a few bugs with Items in late game etc.)

Mark

Total: 27,5/45 [ Mark 3- ] (1 is best and 6 is worst)

Good & Bad

[+] AI - I respect maps with AI inside!
[+] Enemy's are mostly balanced.
[+/-] Heroes - Some are too weak
[-] You'll have to work on the Terrain.
[-] Some Item's are really overpowered.

shouldn't the website link be http://archimondesarena.blogspot.com/?

it's currently: http://archimondesarena/blogspot.com/ in the opening detail post

hellboys12345 · Mar 15, 2011

Umm... ya.. hi der. it seems that the devotion aura from Bladebane Armor is also given to the enemy creeps.. might want to fix that... :thumbs_up:

Good Luck

And also the AI buys only 3 items and thats it! I know ur working on that, but try faster

-katana- · Mar 25, 2011

This is really a good idea :goblin_good_job:

I played it for an hour or so yesterday with bots...cant wait to play it with real people :goblin_yeah:

EDIT:But it also took me about 15 minutes to figure out I need to type -ready when you want to enter the arena xD

Magnet199 · Mar 25, 2011

going to post a new feedback for you (will be about game play only)

EDIT: ok tested, here is what i got:

The bad stuff:
- the lightning revenant ulti, USELESS!!! i find NO use for it, it like another version of the electric sheild, but worst, because the electric shield you can attack (so you get lifesteal, that will make it hit, and AoE hit) and the ulti, is just stand and dance until you die -_- PLEASE CHANGE

The good stuff:
- terrain improved
- arena improved
- starting location in the arena is better now

- "ready" system awesome

Suggestions:
- now because no one takes boots anymore (only cawords) how about you make a new hero, that have like barathrum (from dota) ability the: when gained MS this units get #% damage, and also increases his MS with #% you get my point here?
- change the lighting guy ultimate
- more arenas, like one time this, next time that, so it wont be boring

- you could add whats the next wave will be, so you know if you should continue with this item or choose that item

you get what im trying to say here?

Anyways map is GrEaT

Uniteks · Mar 25, 2011

The map is great and all, but it's just too easy and gets boring really fast. I suggest adding bosses with unique abilitys after every 10 or so waves. You could also nerf the skills you can buy from the unit that looks like silencer (in dota) most of them are too imba. Basically if you get the INT blast skill you can kill steal almost all of the kills and so easily it's not even funny.

Tozza · Mar 26, 2011

This game is too easy..

I was able to solo as priest buying the ability "Blast of intelligence" and just focus on getting high intellect.

I came to level 20, but died there

Anyway, nice map.

Things to be fixed shud be:
Fix terrain a bit.
Nerfing the Buying abilites.
Making boss waves, like every 5 wave for a bonus gold.

Overall 3/5 | May be higher if you fixes a little bit.

/Tozza

Uniteks · Mar 27, 2011

You should also fix the problem of when someone leaves you can't continue on because he didin't wrote -ready.

Shubac · Mar 31, 2011

Really great game...could use more levels though and a boss that doesn't die of C4

Mr_Bean · Apr 6, 2011

Thanks for your helpful feedback guys! I am working a lot on version 1.3. It will be harder, have improved heroes and fixed many of the bugs you mentioned. If you have any ideas for items, new heroes or new levels, contact me at mrbean987789@gmail,com.

You can also check for updates at http://archimondesarena.enjin.com.

yt_ · Apr 8, 2011

Make the game more challenging, like add boss every *level or make one stronger unit for each wave. because it's boring to fight creeps without interesting ability :hohum:

But overall it's nice map Gj.

FrozenFenrir · Apr 10, 2011

found a bug in the new version:

the mind staff recipe says in the text that it should cost 700. instead it actually costs 2075 which is the amount this item would cost in total.
please hotfix that

also small suggestion: having a priest with "chain lightning" while having a lightning revenant as an avaiable hero? it seems a bit weird. maybe rename it at least(like i dont know...cleansing wave or multi inquisition or something which would fit a priest) so its not that irritating.

yt_ · Apr 11, 2011

Hey, I think I found error, about the priest ultimate ability.
When i was lvl 23 and my ultimate lvl 4 it's say, heal all heroes 10 x priest int. My int is 102 and the heal amount should be 1020 each heroes right? But my hero and allies only got 200++, is that divided amongst heroes? If not that's must be error, need to fix that

After ready, change the timer to 3, to make it quick. That's just a suggestion.

Magtheridon96 · Apr 11, 2011

I'd recommend taking the image (Archimonde's Arena) in Photoshop and convert it from Indexed to RGB

(There's a special way to tell)

I like this map

It's pretty good

I only have one suggestion: You could change the Upkeep text from "Archimonde's Arena v1.3 AI" to something shorter that could fit (This would increase map visuals a lot)

Something like "AA v1.3 AI" would be suitable, or to avoid people mistaking it for Angel Arena lol, you could simply put "v1.3 AI"

Happy mapping

Lich-King · Jul 29, 2011

Really Liked =)

Need more items i think...

Mr_Bean · Aug 10, 2011

hellboys12345 · Aug 27, 2011

Bean, can you work on a music system? It gets boring around the ends...

Mr_Bean · Aug 27, 2011

What do you mean "around the ends"? When you are in fighting in the arena?

Uploaded version 2.0 AI beta 1. Please visit the website (http://ArchimondesArena.niceboard.com) regularly for updates, including known issues. If you find any bugs or have any suggestions, please either post them here or on the above-mentioned website.

Thanks!

MARYNOM · Oct 21, 2011

let's say something about this

quite fun map to play but if you don't cheat u can't defeat archimonde because your hero transforms into doomguard and then archimonde aims only at you so when your doom guard dies game stand's in "unlimited space and time" XD
So probably that's a bug... still map is under development so you can only make it better

Mr_Bean · Oct 21, 2011

Hmmm, thanks. I will look at that :/

EDIT: Thanks for finding that bug, MARYNOM. I have fixed it for the next version.

BLAUGHUM · Oct 24, 2011

Looks great! I think it would be better if there were more players though

5/5 Gameplay

Mr_Bean · Oct 24, 2011

Cool, thank you very much! Maybe one day I will add more players - it is too much work

Mr_Bean · Nov 14, 2011

Update:
Added new screenshots - previews of the next version.

kevlamin · Nov 22, 2011

Okay After playing the latest version I must say it's a lot more polished now, however it would be nice if the AI bought at least type specific Items instead of all the same thing at the very least you could have 3 sets and depending on if it was Strength Intelligence or Agility buy a set based around that. Even to a certain extent that wont work well but its better than what it is now( eg necromancer works best with Mana/Attackspeed not INT)

Found a crash too, trying to reproduce now; as a Necromancer I died on the Naga round the blademaster AI finished the round and my w3 Fatal error-ed when it was trying to revive me

also a quick suggestion I would say give the necromancer's spells that's damage is based off the casters intelligence

EDIT: found another bug on round 21 the AI dont "ready"

Mr_Bean · Nov 22, 2011

Thanks man. I did have 3 AI item builds - one for agility, intelligence and strength. I have temporarily removed AI because I'm not good at it. If you would like to do the AI, please let me know.

Thanks for the kind words.

Mr_Bean · Dec 25, 2011

Thanks! It didn't work long ago, but it's fixed now.

Druu · Dec 28, 2011

You need to have custom heroes, I tried 2 of them (thief and lightning master) and there were only 2 spells that were custom. Be creative, you have a master of lightning, his Ult is simple, but effective, you should think of other spells like this one.

Thief is just simple mix between blademaster, warden and demon hunter, nothing special or exciting to play with.

maybe you should make a stealth mode or something fun to use.
