Toy Soldiers v1.56

Features:
- shooter map, in conclussion it's mix of various FPS games given into WarCraft3
- great for LAN party
- fast-paced action
- 5v5 gameplay
- Bomb/Defuse mode and Zombie mode
- realtime, round-based gameplay
- takes just few moments to learn how to play (if you ever played ET it will be piece of cake for you)
- 7 unique classes to choose from, even if it's very similar to play with every class, everyone has got another pros/cons
- more types of ammunition, not just one per weapon
- hiding in trees and bushes, giving it realistic touch
- 4 types of grenades, airstrike, artillery barrage
- unique 3D positional sound, also walking sounds (like in Counter-Strike)
- still in development so things may change (any suggestions you give I take in consideration)



You thought maybe that the name of map doesn't have any connection with gameplay itself except the word soldiers. well yeah, the game is not toys, I made it more or less realistic. I took it more poetic. ;)
Even the map is not as colorful as the map preview picture. The game is a lot of dark green while picture is light, flashy, etc. It's done on purpose.

Also: map is unprotected.

Intense fightning in Cannon Fodder style!

Great game and here are my improvement ideas:
1) You could add a possibility to change the goals: Game ends after 5,10,15,20 rounds or when other team gets 3,5,7 or 99 victories in row.
2) Limit number of grenades or better: let the host choose from 2,4 or 6.
3) Don't put too many items or guns where to choose. I think it is now good. You don't need to think what everything does but only pick the ones you really need and go. Keep the amount of items low!
4) There could be a possibility to host to choose different maps where they want to fight: i) jungle (the one there is now) ii) city (streets and concrete buildings) iii) training area (small obstacles and some hideouts)
5) In this game there could be actually 1 or 2 more players. However, it is good that you have realised that getting more than 6 players is sometimes difficult.
6) Mode to change friendly fire on/off.
7) AI for leaving players. It doesn't even have to be very smart: just run towards enemies and shoot. Of course, the smarter the better.

In the end, thank you for making this map. It was very enjoyable.

i agree what it stands in the dl screen, the best shooter on wc3 and it truly is, to bad the host cant have an option to extend the number of wins required to win, i think 10 or 5 more is to little, the grenades are cool, bounces like real life and is very cool but there should cost, like if you added grenade ammo whenever you throw 1 decreases from inventory as you did with the regular ammo for guns, that would be good, and there should be able to be 12 players, i mean if the host dont want 12 playes just close the slot, better to have more cuz if you want less that is easy to fix just simply close, anyway great map 5/5

U know what i really hate about this? Snipers completly dominate. To add to that, there is no real automatic class or weapon, since snipers have (the same?) cooldown as the automatics. To add to this, hitting every single bullet with an automatic won't kill them which is completely stupid, while sniper is 1 shot KO. Sorry for the attitude but these are some obvious decisions :). Gameplay is nice, map is nice (maybe add a few more stages later), nades are pretty awesome. rating reserved

I love this map~
It is very exciting!!

But I still have some suggestions:
1.Add mission mode
ex : capture flag , put C4 bomb , escape ,.... etc
2.Add text display when somebody were killed.
ex : Show message "AAA was killed by BBB" at left-bottom corner of the everyone's screen.

I hope this map will be popular. :grin:

i love this map
very nice and fun map with grenade bouncing n cover behind tree or building.
5/5

my opinion :
- the game too short with only 10 point win (add point option for host plz)
- Sniper >> not a deadly at far range (camera when sniping need more sight)
- i think its fun to add more weaponry or item (just real weapon like mortar not stupid laser or poison.etc)........ >>> add handgun with low dmg n low range for secondary weapon to soldier

I'm So in love with this game but I did it 1 v 1 with someone but that was not funny :p maybe you should add some modes [like 1 vs 1]
And maybe more team mode?
Well Really Good job on this :thumbs_up:

This is magnificent, you simply must continue working on this...

Suggestions: Game modes (Death match or Objective where you blow up tank)
More classes such as Engineer, Spy

Oh and there is a very minor graphic bug. The blackness of the unit bar extends over to the command menu and overlaps it. Just so you know.

Edit: Didn't see you already separated dm and objective. Sorry.

Thank you guys! You gave me a kick that helps me continue on this.:cute:

Oh and there is a very minor graphic bug. The blackness of the unit bar extends over to the command menu and overlaps it. Just so you know.
Could you please screenshot it and PM it me? The ui is made to be black but it bugs sometimes for me (the armor icon at unit is crossed by black line or buff icon is bugged), dunno why :\.

-I am not adding any new class soon because I think we already have a good count of them.
-I will not make a CTF mode (it wouldn't worked well with round system). But Bomb/Defuse and Escape sounds very interesting (even Defuse seems to classic) and I might do them.
-I am thinking about adding for weapons for choose. Like Marine could choose from Assault Rifle/Submachine gun...And Recon from Shotgun/Combat Shotgun or something...
Right now Medic is using Submachine gun (like Rifle but less damage/more bullets).
What do you think?
-Also I am not in making the options for host to change game properties like count of rounds or count of grenades etc...A map selection handle this. Every mode had has its own game properties, because of balance issues.

Special skill of Operator and Machine Gunner 's so Imba '___'

Call Air Strike: my enemy didn't know i call Air strike at their armbush area and they die...

Mortar: Soooooooo.. imba skill. My friend use formation with 5 Machine Gunner. Thier tactic 're rush Mortar. So imba?

"Barricade", "C4" and "Explosive" 're keeped for the next round?

Cool Game. 5/5. :D keep ur gooooooood work.

Recon's skill is not useful. Can u get them more skills? eg: A skill show signal enemy in the area 1000 around him on the minimap? - or show C4 around him?

Make class's movement speed :D i think it 'll be better. Machinegunner run slow < Operator, medic, sniper < Marine < Recon.

Recon can use Submachine Gun like Mp5 - fast cooldown and low damage. Marine can use shotgun.




All class can have skill like item Stim pack. But less seconds effect, no lose HP and more mana, more cooldown.

Sniper's damage should be buff. One shot down Medic,Recon or Operator :D. They'll be more useful.

Remove Item "Satellite Screen" and make it be a skill of Recon or Operator or both? This item 's so cheap and make us can't ambush any one T.T




Oops... 1.20 u made Operator two imba skills :|, Sentinel haven't erase at the new round. When Airstrike, can u make anything to alarm the enemy team when you use it? Like a scream Airstrike.... when you target? :D

:spell_breaker:Extremely well made map though it would be better if you added more rounds or had an option to add more rounds.

Also, the game randomly disconnects sometimes for me- I am not sure if it is just my internet or not- but it never happens in any game except Toy Soldiers. I had 5 games which disconnected. :cry:

But besides that, top notch game- giving you a 4.5/5 rounding up to a 5.

This has got to be the best shooter game that warcraft 3 has ever seen as well as the best hero cam game. The hero cam actually improves gameplay. 5/5

I agree with Water_Bender, but you should add more classes to add variety such as a Rocket Launcher please continue updating snaky!

You need to fix the satellite item, I'm sure it causes leaks or something and players disconnect due to it, its a very good item.

Great game. 5/5 :thumbs_up:

I dont think you should add weapon choices for classes, It keeps them more unique and simple without weapon choices but thats just my opinion.

Heres a few suggestions: Add new maps
Add a rematch command for red after the game ends.
Add a swap command for red so that he can balance teams if people leave.
Add a special mode like team deathmatch but with vehicles that players can buy/find on the map.

And i know you said you weren't going to add any new classes but I think adding these two would be good.

Flamethrower: has a flamethrower that burns enemies over time and a fire grenade thats burns the ground for several seconds. The flamethrower can also destroy trees and grass ruining the enemy's cover.

Sub Machine Gunner: like machine gunner, but faster, with less firepower and no mortars.

And for movespeeds i think it should go like this
sniper(scoped) < Machine Gunner < Medic < Sniper(not scoped) < Operator < Marine < Flamethrower < Sub Machine Gunner < Recon


For anyone that plays Toy Soldiers on USeast my friends and I just created a clan for it. Come to channel clan SotS or whisper Shaman888@azeroth or Supwer@azeroth to join.

Really good map with a lot of action inside...

I agree with the flamethrower idea because it can even improve the game...

I totally love this game but...
I think the game's name have to be changed, it has nothing with toy soldiers to do,
"Toy Soldiers" is kinda lame.
People don't join if I host with toy soldiers as gamename.
Change it to something that is more like the game itself, like Soldier Wars or something.
Also the image could be some pic of a marine or something, so it looks like a shooter game instead


Edit: I found a bug, sometimes when the bomb is deffused after the red team is dead, the red team get the point :S

This was the best map ever for the lan we do every 2 months. The map layout is great, way of firing, grenade, "spells" its all awesome. But, the only things missing is maybe 1 more mod et 1-2 map layout choise.
Thx for the map :)

ah sorry guys, i had and still having some issues in RL
made little update this time, new terrain (de_inferno) and made some tweaks like decrease of movement speed, etc...
already played some games on BN and it was quite fun besides the bloody bugs there :(

i know it sometimes bugs when someone leave, bomb sometimes makes boom a lot quicker than it should, texttags with player names often bug when playing with 8 players and more and so on
but still, let me know about bugs you encounter also if you have any ideas for balance issues

oh, and i didnt write changelog this time, cant be arsed to do it :D
