So... it's a quite basic ORPG where nearly nothing is done. Why did you start a thread for it already?

All I can say from the info you have given: ... I like the blue color you used.

 

[real138]

haha well i just wanted to get it outta the way the thread im gonna be adding screenshots of the terrain.

 

[Dark Soul]

Well, I would suggest the About the Map come before every other thing or else, well, it is the foundation of the map and just telling us the heroes etc wont let us know what the game is really about. I suggest get right into the story line and map about.

 

[Catch_ya]

I like the heroes they are special instead of warrior and rogue -.-

 

[real138]

ya im waiting for my partner to come back from vacation to talk about the story line and about the map.

 

[aMazenSkillz]

show them the first boss battle i made!! =D

 

[aMazenSkillz]

man i'm good at terrain =D

 

[Goffterdom]

Screenshots 1-2-3 looks ugly, whereas others look fine.

I agree with cath ya, the heroes' idea are a bit more original than other RPG.

 

[meOme]

I completely agree with Goffterdom. The main problem are the grass cliffs, they just don't fit. I think Pic #2 has the worst color combination I've ever seen. xD
I like the ice pic, looks good.

 

[real138]

ok ill try to change by your suggestions thanks. +rep

 

[DudeSpirit]

Uhh.. The screenshots are really bad.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Your terrain is too blocky and square, you need to smooth it. Remember that square shaps tend to be man made, while more rounded are natural.

Thus a square fort is good, a square hill is not.

 

[Bernkastel]

The terrain burns my eyes! Work on it, thank you!

 

[Catch_ya]

just use the smooth tool 1 or 2 times on those straight cliffs so it looks more natural

 

[DudeSpirit]

Lol 'just use a lil smooth and it'll be perfect...'

No, that wont do it..

 

[real138]

ok if your gonna say its bad say why not just ahh it burns my eyes.
but back to the nice ppl thanks for commenting ill try these things once i get the map back from amazen.

 

[aMazenSkillz]

how about you stop bashing the terrain and maybe apply some useful information? thank you.

 

[Catch_ya]

Sorry .. i was just trying to help how to improve the terrain..

 

[real138]

nah you helped i was talking about someone else.

 

[Catch_ya]

nah you helped i was talking about someone else.

ok ^^ gl

 

[Bernkastel]

Hmm.. Talking about me then? xD

 

[real138]

ya i want contstructive criticism

 

[Piwlady]

There is so damn many ORPG so you should invent something special... just because everyone should seperate from mass.

And terrain is damn bad >_< get terrainer OR do daaaaaaaaaaamn big reterraining by yourself... If you need some help with terraining. I really recommend to look at terrain pictures in Terrain Borad-section of the forum. They helped me alot Also if you want to look at my map terraining just press link in my sign...
Use alot more tiles on ground and use doodads to make mountains and things. Cliffs looks so ugly... I hope this helped...

 

[real138]

ya where going through a huge re-terrain.

 

[Piwlady]

Goodie... Good luck
Terraining is damn fun so you are going to have good time.

 

[real138]

eh im more of a triggerer i never like how my terrain turns out so i redo it over and over again

 

[Piwlady]

I guess you will find out "the magic of terraining". Redoing and adjusting is always good thing, terrain can always be better in every map, i think (excluding CloudWolf's Diablo 3 map ofc <.<).

 

[The World Is Flat]

If you need some help i can do terrain and stroy stuffs, ideas too.

 

[real138]

we got the terrain but story i do need help. that would be greatly appreciated.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Well then give me a base to work on please.

 

[real138]

its in that thread about the writers. thats the base i got.

 

[The World Is Flat]

ok i'll check it out, i posted a little short story wip, i did it really quick so its not up to my normal spec.

Here:

In a land, where Kings were hailed as the highest power, all was good, until one day everything changed. An Ancient Power has been unleashed by *Marduuk* and has now taken over the land, he is slowly dring and destroying the three suns that transverse across the world, without these suns, the world will fall into a deep apocalypse that Would claim the entire world, and none would survive he ensuing chaos. Now Eight brave heroes venture out across the land, they will encounter many dangerous creatures, but Only when this ancient power is defeated will peace, and prosperity be restored to the land.

ok so i did some chages to this, but i want to know exactly how much morei should do?

 

[thedeathunterxx]

...

are those screenshots old ?
because i really hope so because those screenshots are awful.

ill comment more when this becomes more developed.

 

[real138]

@ world more in depth as much much longer ill send you the map. and you can write a story bout the area none of the creeps are thought of except the ice one its a frozen skeleton.

@death ya those are way old this weekend im changing them.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Ok like 4-5 MS word pages?

 

[real138]

well id say 1-2 for the main story but also short histories of each area and the bosses.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Alright, i'll need to know about these areas...

 

[haxel96]

HAHAHA u se the "screen captured" that pops up when screenshooting on one of the screenshots

 

[real138]

ya lol its weird like that.

 

[aki15]

It's nice description, i like the spell system but i don't like ur terain it's kinda 1.5/5 .
I think u can do it much better....
Or find some good terrainer .
I can help u with terain if u wanna but k, have a lot more work to do .
Cya and good luck with your map !

 

[real138]

ya gonna upload new terrain screenshots today. give me about an hour.

EDIT: updated.

 

[aMazenSkillz]

just so everyone knows. I worked extremely hard on making everything you saw, along side with real, we fixed all the cliffs, and many of the minor terrain changes such as :tree sizes, different trees in different areas, and etc. I would like CONSTRUCTIVE CRITCISM. i do not want a post such as "it sucks" it does not help in any way, and we will mute your post. please follow the post rules. thanks a bunch!

 

[Hordeon]

Looks really interesting... Subscribed!

 

[real138]

thanks. were working hard right now on improving terrain. and right now the idea of this map is unlike others will be releasing the theme once the story is past basic.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Ok, i am going to start fluffing up the story soon...

 

[real138]

ok sounds great keep me updated.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Hows this: In the land of Urdranna, wars come and go, beings of great power rise and fall. Kingdoms proclaim greatness only to fall into disarray years later… Time passes. By the time of the eight revival of the Grand Coalition this world had already seen thirteen great wars, and hundreds of lesser ones. And the greatest one yet, was about to erupt. Lord Mordain of the Akkiron Alliance suddenly declared war on the coalition. Not expecting any great attack or military prowess the coalition slowly moved into a defensive stance. Before the first month of the war, two grand cities had been lost without a trace. To messengers returned to the coalition. Scouts were deployed, and never returned. Finally, a grand battalion rode out, and discovered the truth: Lord Mordain had been, in secret, creating an army of undead warriors. This army could sink into the soil and appear somewhere else entirely, due to a great artifact discovered by Mordain: The amulet of earth. The two great powers engaged. Two hundred years of bloody conflict heralded a new ruler for the Coalition: High Emperor Mordain, Ruler of the Thousand Kingdoms. The world sank into peace again. The armies of the dead passed on, and living men took their place. Mordain’s son Lord Marduuk, estranged by his father for failing to support him, made a terrible mistake: he consorted with daemons. They possessed him, and used him as an avatar… to summon an ancient evil to Urdranna… The Forest folk awoke from their depleted state as a massice magical shockwave tore through the Urdranna. Bears changed into man like creatures, wolves gain incredible size… the world itself rebelled against this power, and against man.

Now a three-way war is being waged. Huamity, The Earth, And hell itself, are at war for the future of the entire world.


In this land, where Kings were hailed as the highest power, everything has changed. the Ancient Power has been unleashed by * Lord Marduuk* and has now taken over the land, he is slowly growing and destroying the three suns that transverse across the world, without these suns, the world will fall into darkness that will claim the entire world, and none would survive the ensuing chaos. Now Eight great generals of the Akkiron Alliance of a Thousan Kingdoms must defend their cities from the approaching darkness. they will encounter many dangerous creatures, but only when this ancient power is defeated will peace and prosperity be restored to the land. Many great challenges await them; The Forests teem with primal races gathering for war. This power has stirred the minds of some of the greatest creatures on this world… both good and evil.

 

[real138]

@_@ i love it so far. but the ending is wrong. the players are allied with evil and have to take over the land.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Alright, thats not what i intended, lemme fix...


Ok check what i added...
