Friends Farm 5.04
216073-albums7175-picture83185.jpg

Created by TykcukON (this is my pseudomym)

Map Info:

Janre: AoS/MOBA

One player plays with one hero that he picks from a tavern (-ar and -random commands are turned off for a while).

Items system upgrades all the time...

After 2 minutes "creeps" start to move from all bases to attack enemy base (classic).

The goal - to rush enemy towers and the base. Every force have 2 bases (4 total). Main buildings have the "Transfer Pain" ability - damage taken divides between 2 main buildings.

On every base you can see 4 shops with starting equipment (mostly it is gathered of parts).

On the center of the map you'll find 4 shops with main items that don't have to be crafted, you can buy it instantly (mostly).

Besides "lanes" in the Friends Farm world there is a rich content:

- you can go jungle - every spot differs it's monsters that drop unique buffs such as: Attack Speed, Attack Damage, Armor, Mana regeneration, Life Regeneration. Not every hero can easily jungle, but you can ask your allies to assist you to take some necessary buff...
- you can find 4 bosses on the map: Rhasta, Gondar, Illidan and Windrunner which can drop any item that are soled in any shop (except PvP Items).
- there are 8 EPIC bosses situated in the corners of the map: Ancient Hydra, DVP, Centaur Warchief, Sven, Dart Wader, Stifa, Leorik, Full Metal Alchemist. Each boss drops an Epic items that give your hero a huge amount of stats and good skills, BUT they drop upon death! To farm an epic boss you'll need a good team, gear and the strategy.

Every 10 minutes of a game time passes so-called "HAMMERTIME" - this is a TvT arena, winners of which recieve 10 PvP-Points.

PvP-Points is the unique currency of the Friends Farm world. For every enemy hero kill you get 5 PvP-Points. This currency allows you to buy powerful PvP-items, but you have to kill a lot of times to do it.

Also my map has a so-called "Ability Power" - almost every spell deals additional damage dependant on some stats (Intelligence\Strength\Agility).

After the first HAMMERTIME (after 10 minutes) in all corners of the middle lane spawns Tichondriuses (mini bosses) with an army of Abominations (4 of them and each have unique abilities: attack speed, attack damage, cold attack, bash). Tichondriuses drop additional 6 coins that cost 100 gold each.

When any epic boss dies - the enemy camp is attacked by forces of the Burning Legion, which brings heavy losses.

Every hero has a Recall ability that he have to channel for 7 seconds to teleport to his base. Any recieved damage will break channeling.

Total number of heroes: 72(+6 are planned to be added)
Current number of heroes at this moment: 39 (because of rebalansing)
The stage of completion: ~33%

Hello ZiGOR, I am reviewing your map Friends Farm. I've been really lazy with reviews lately but I understand the Hive needs some help clearing out the pending map section. Your map seemed the most interesting to me.

The Review

As I said, your map looked interesting. It has a very odd name, but that makes it unique. (I can't understand why you chose to name your map that way though.) The preview picture is high quality and very attractive. Your description is okay, but contains grammar and spelling errors as well as some Russian. Please translate the Russian. The map is not approvable until the description is fully English. I suggest you use some more BBCodes to make your description more attractive, because the part where you describe the map's features looks a little bland.

Next, your terrain. You use raise/lower, lots of tile variation, and some doodads. However, your doodads seemed spammed in some places and not in others. I suggest you put more doodads in places that don't have any, and slightly reduce the amount of doodads in the places where there are tons. This includes the skulls on sticks in DVP's area. That doodad does not look good when spammed. The trees are well placed and provide ample sub-lanes for heroes to battle in. The gameplay is okay. It is an AoS, but the four bases was a really cool concept. I like how the bases are all different factions with their own troops. The way troops are spawned is cool too. The creep camps seem a bit over the top, but I like the variance in them. The shops in the middle of the lanes is also a cool idea. The multiboard is okay. It contains useful information but doesn't look very nice. It's easy to lasthit creeps, which is important. The Hammertime event was another cool feature. You give the players ample time to read over heroes before the game begins, which is a nice concept. You have a lot of heroes, and they all have nice custom abilities. Many are triggered, have nice effects, and most fit the hero that uses them. The abilities also have nice tooltips. I cannot comment on the balance, as the game has no AI. The Recall ability is a nice addition. You have lots of items, many with custom icons, and I like how you can craft items. The PvP items are also nice. I like the PvP points as the secondary resource, and the Game Time is a nice use for food (although it's not original). I can suggest that you add an AI for the map. I know it is very hard, but it would definitely make this map better. I also suggest you improve your grammar.

I'm sorry this review was short, I hope it's enough to show what I think about this map.

Friends Farm has a lot of nice features, is somewhat unique, and I can't see why it can't be approved (besides the Russian text in the description). It has nothing malicious about it and it stands up to the quality standards of this site.

I give this map a vote for approval and a rating of
3/5

SeedinAethyr, thanks a lot for your reply and your rate.

(I can't understand why you chose to name your map that way though.)

It's a long story... well, a lot of testers asked me not to change it because they used to play Friends Farm ^^,

Your description is okay, but contains grammar and spelling errors as well as some Russian. Please translate the Russian.

Sorry, my bad, didn't see it :) removing right now!

I suggest you use some more BBCodes to make your description more attractive, because the part where you describe the map's features looks a little bland.

Rojer!

You have a lot of heroes

Actually not yet))) I have only 30 active heroes, 42 another are waiting for balansing and update and 7 more are waiting to be created :)

Game Time is a nice use for food (although it's not original)

I have a problem with using ":" symbol instead of "/"... it would be nice if someone could help me with that :)

I can suggest that you add an AI for the map. I know it is very hard, but it would definitely make this map better.

I would make it and I even want to do it, but all my attemts had no result. If someone could help me with that I would be very thankful.

your doodads seemed spammed in some places and not in others

I'm gonna work on it shortly.

--------

I want to say thanks one more time! I'm going to improve my map so it could deserve 5/5 rate! :thumbs_up:

Did I just read Muhammad and Death prophet in the same hero?.
As a muslim I find this insulting, not of the name Muhammad, but obviously you intentionally put him as a necromancer/death prophet.
Please change that. Warcraft is supposed to be a fantasy world, don't bring the hate in your maps.
I for one refuse to review and play it as mentioned my reason above.
Judging from the description, I'd say a modified DotA at best, though without throughout play I can't decide on my vote.

okay, sorry... =\ changed it to Proktophantasmist ^^,
I didn't ask you to change it to something worse, I asked you if possible to remove it completely. Even though, I concur that you are very predictable and I knew that you'd most likely troll even further. Anyway, what you joke about today is your setback noone else's.
Please refrain from offending religion/culture/race/nation in the future, especially in a community with many different people.
I hope I don't see you around much. Have a good day.

Well, let's start. Btw you're not talking to a noob, so yeah, I'm criticizing you!
It's flat! Bad tileset variation, doodads spamming(mainly badly chosen trees!), lack of environmental doodads(put some shrubs, cattails, mushrooms), BLACK fog(what the hell? Make a more dark greenish fog please!), Giant units(WHY? scale them down a bit), at least DO NOT USE BLIZZARD CLIFFS(ugly as hell!), you could also tint those walls a bit to blend them in with your greenish terrain, too many skulls there(less skulls, add some corpses, fires and pit fires there), no rocks anywhere(WHY? It's not a desert!). I hope this would give you some tips.

Thank you, this is a constructive criticism. I'll follow your advice and let you know so you could take a look :thumbs_up:

:vw_unimpressed:
Man, I never ment to offend anyone!
Trolling?! I'm not a 15-years old student to troll people... It seems that you are trolling me now!
I don't get any pleasure of answering so negative post.
Think what you want, MAP won't be worse because of this.

I didn't ask you to change it to something worse, I asked you if possible to remove it completely.

WHA-WHA-WHAT??? Remove a hero because of you?
Did you ask IceFrog the same thing? Because he has the Death Prophet too...

My friend warned me that muslims won't forgive me and will revenge...

Good day everyone, I came here to clean your comment boards in regards of offense to one another, ZiGOR I believe you should remove any idealism of your hero unit from a base religion as respect and to not violate our forum's rules (http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/rules-information-710/site-rules-245478/).

About the map's sudden and quick approval, I am here to set it back to pending and do the reviews myself. For now please wait for my next reply for moderation.
