Hero Wars

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
The map is pretty much just any hero wars map, get to the other players main building and destroy it to win. There are -repick1 -repick2 and -repick3 commands and over 24 heros to select from. I created everything in the map using the War III World editor the only other file i used was EXTProtect so credits to whoever made that.
-Update V1.1 fixed some bugs and added -home
-Update V1.2 added 3 more heros removed 1
-Update V1.3 increased death tower lvl 3 hp from 500 to 1000
-Update V1.4 nothing really just changed around some triggers
-Update V1.5 updated Hydralisk, hero decreased attack from 80 to 55 and added 5 names to him instead of 1

It's good that you accept that this map isn't a professional map.

Review:

General

General:
  • Very bad description (both in-game as on the hive).
  • We do not accept "Credits to whoever made that", try to be more accurate.

Gameplay:
  • Nothing new/original
  • The hero-choose system isn't good
  • Heroes are imbalanced (Archimonde has rain of Chaos and Dark Portal, Divine Armor, chaos attack, ...)
Terrain/Objects

Terrain:
  • Flat, plain terrain
  • Overdone fire doodads
  • Sudden changes in terrain, no transition

Objects:
  • No custom spells
  • No custom items
  • The Black Citadel hasn't been changed.
Triggers

Triggers:
I couldn't open the map (it's protected), but I've found out my FPS lowered from 36 to 32, which might indicate leaks.
I've also noticed that your triggering isn't of a very high quality and isn't efficient.
A good example is the -repick1, 2, 3 - why do you need 3 repick-commands?

Try removing all leaks and code more efficient.
Overall

Well, this is a low-quality Hero Wars, with standard abilities/items, unbalanced heroes, a lacking description and (probably) poor triggering.

Rating: 1/5
Vote for Rejection

Reason:

Well, it's playable... but there is a lot missing and this has been done a lot more, and better.
Do not give up, though...


Hints/tutorials:

Tutorials:

Hints:

  • Write an appealing description, that will attract people to download the map
    (I think I'm going to make a tutorial for this...)
  • Customizing the spells will immeadiately make the map better
  • The terrain is very important, every good map has a good terrain.
  • If you need help, The Hive has a lot of other tutorials and a request section, where you can ask anything if you've got a problem.
  • You can always PM me if you need any help/ideas.
