Created by Blizzard?...
screenshots are too small use tinypic.com then insert it as image, give as more description use the bb codes

 

[Strange1884]

Improve Description a bit.

This map seems really nice. With all custom models and stuff it will be a fine map. It is very simple, but it works properly.

 

[light bolt30]

A map would have more potential if it was original. You also need to improve the description; tell us about the gameplay, heroes, items, storyline, etc. Here's a list of BB Codes to help you.

 

[iorus]

I played the map and it reminds me so many good memories , but I started to think how this map look with a 1st person camera...

 

[nerovesper]

ok, i'll try to give more descript. i'll fix it a bit later still in class. ^^

 

[-Grendel]

i remember making one of these myself last year :>
but i eventually lost interest.
well! i gotta test these when i get home

 

[nerovesper]

fixed that final thing... and added some things.

 

[ksStr]

Hmm...it looks just like the old War Chaser which is in the War3 Roc's Scenario
except for the models, items etc.. @@
Fine map anyway~ =D

Unlike most of other WarChasers game, this one is...
GOD DAMN REALLY MAKES ME STUNNED!
This one is (my opinion) the best WarChasers map forever!
All is perfect, and the sexiest section is the skills! It's really custom!
Suggestions :
Oh, what can I suggest to you, all is perfect. Hmmm... yeah, there is something annoy me.
-Increase the skill's max level? I think it's nice.
Hmmm... what can I said again? Maybe, more heroes and custom skills? But I think you already know that!
Anyway, good luck in your project!
=======
P.S : First time I play with Mammoroth, the Mammoth Ravager, only me. I died on the sacred halls of the Shadowlord when fighting with the Spectre!
Anyway nice heroes.
Again, good luck in your project!

 

[nerovesper]

ok, i'll try that. and yea my friends told me the ghost monsters were a bit imba because they only get hit with spells. i think it's good on 4 players. i'll try to balance that a bit. xD

really took me a lot time with the spells and i very much appreciate the compliment. thank you. ^^

I'll try to improve it.

I'm also planning on creating a part 2 of the game. but still gonna take some time for renewing the whole terrain. xD

 

[ImperialShadow]

hey nervo,can u list the hero and the spell?

 

[nerovesper]

i'll try.

 

[Orcnet]

I was planning to make some revamps myself, but since your in the picture, I guess I'll wait for my turn, keep up the good work!

 

[Great Chief Aeon]

Looks Very Awesome... Very better than the original one, I will download

 

[sentrywiz]

Looks fun. I'll try!

 

[nerovesper]

much fun if you play it with 2 or more people. i dn't suggest it on 1 though u can still play it. ^^

 

[DestinyEX]

awesome map,played it with 2 other people got through till the lich king but there was no way we could beat him.lol we died...but still a cool map and lots of fun.
the only thing that would be nice is if there was more fusion items,but thats just a small thing

 

[nerovesper]

thanks ^^.

i guess i'll try to lower lich king. the thing is b4... my testers complained he is too weak, i guess he went too strong. hehe. i'll try to balance that a bit. thanks ^^

A Slayer Review: War Chaser Grand N.V.

Good Points New custom Heroes. New custom items. Heroes have new custom abilities. Custom models. The gameplay is good, though the map was originally made by Blizzard. Nice terrain, though once again this was also originally made by Blizzard. Bad Points Some of the same creeps from Blizzard's War Chasers. There is no way to heal yourself when not in combat, just like in Blizzard's War Chasers. (This is something I always hated. You had to stand around if you were low on health. You do have an item that heals you at the beginning of the game, but you need a non-combat consumable item like a Healing Salve or Replenishment Potion that you always have with you. I suggest you make a permanent ability that acts as a Replenishment Potion, but increase the Healing and Mana and increase the time it takes for it to finish a little bit. Call it "Rest" or something like that. I've seen this done on many maps and I like that idea myself.) Really hard if you're playing this map by yourself, as with Blizzard's War Chasers. You do not revive after you die. (At least Blizzard's gave you an Ankh. Of course, you replaced that with that healing plant you had. Reviving after you die is not necessary to improve the gameplay or help the map.) Bugs (I did not discover any bugs while I played this map.) Overall Opinion Overall, I'd say this map is pretty fun, although it is Blizzard's map, just modified. I'll give it a 3/5. Personally, I actually do think it is slightly better than Blizzard's version though.

About the "hard to play alone", yes I agree with that. In the beginning it is very... "damn!". Especially if someone plays hero that don't have heal ability. You can make this map more easy if on single player. I don't know how, but I ever see a map with that trigger.

 

[nerovesper]

at first tym i played it. the single player was too easy so i hardened it a bit.

but when my little brother and i played the game. only us 2. we always end up finishing it. so i thought it was an easy game. the thing is i ddn't take to account that most people will not easily get the game. since i'm the 1 who made it, it was easy 4 me. thanks to your help i am able to improve it 4 every1. ^^

thanks guys.

a system of mine messes up when ank is activated. i dn't knw how to fix it that's why i put a reviving system. T_T

 

[-BLOOD_BATH-]

Well first time I play it, on early it's hard, but in the long run it's easy to grow, because of the Mammoth Ravager has self-heal ability and I'm fell in love in his cleaving attack!
I only test the Mammoth Ravager, because of my poor computer.
The point on this map when play on single player is, no matter how hard you try, in the long run it's be more easy.
Well, essentially, I accept and happy enough with this map condition.
Anyway, creative hero you make, dude!

 

[Cweener]

Based on feedback above, and my opinions on it, I'll approve it without an official review.
It's a pretty cool map though.
I remade this game as well, never uploaded it, and it turned out much different than yours.

 

[flow]

...played this map with 10 of the heroes.An excellent map...way better than the original.
Although it will not show me the end screen ... i just alt + f4 my way out..no biggy.A mana fountain would have been great at the beginning.Anyway the spells..the heroes...the items are all just sweet.Zeal,Drago,Axel,Mammoroth FTW
cheers!

 

[Houston]

I've played this map with all heroes, win it many times, and what can i say.
It's the best map what i have seen last time.
I very like original WarChasers, and have seen many tens of remakes. This version is the best.
Autors have done great work (custom models, items, good balance and gameplay), and got great result!
Nice Blizzard' map became a really masterpiece.
Keep improve that map. Add more new heroes, new items, something else, and i will play it again and again)

 

[noob]

This map is not as easy as warchaser there is no hero like squelettorus who were awesome and made warchaser easy (Many awesome spells who deal incredible damage).And the hell core defense is impossible alone it is bad make only one core and not two or make a taunt.

 

[nerovesper]

ok, i'll fix that after, and some were also complaining about the sacrificial mobs too tough, and some bugs there.

when i made this map i forgot to put easy mode and such. T___T but i am currently taking those mistakes and improving the new map i'm making just like this but with a whole new terrain, heroes and twists. i'm still in progress of making the whole thing... but in this warchaser map all i can do is fix and not add nymore maybe on my other map.

 

[clockwork2]

I love warchasers, i'm gonna test this map and review it!
just played here's mah review, hope you like it.
Heroes: good models and nice spell, 4/5
difficulty: i haven't fully played it, srry. i will edit this when i fully played
Terrain: pretty much just like warchasers, well done! 5/5. this was rated based on how close it is to warchasers
loading screen: EPIC!!!LEGEND/ARY!!!!!(lol jk, real rating is 5/5)
all in all 10/10!

 

[Friendly Warlord]

Like the original Warchasers, the beginning can be quite boring for those heroes that lack a healing ability. Warchasers: Redemption was probably my favorite because it added Mana and Healing Springs ("circle" in that version) near the start.

There are also so many items dropping and the fact that you can't go back to some areas to pick them up, that you need a secondary item storage like in Redemption. Create a unit that can be summoned to the position of your hero that has 6 additional item slots. The unit could not move or use items and would return to its original position 30 secs after the summon, with the summoning having a cooldown as well.

Also, I know I'll be alone in my thought process here, but remove the camera restriction. Allow free control of the camera. Having it focused on your hero all the time is unnecessary and helps in viewing your teammates (therefore "observation mode" would also be unnecessary on death).


The "Infernal Contraption" wave of sacrifices are also bugged.

Warchasers: Redemption

I can't find this map, could u give link, pls?

 

[Friendly Warlord]

I can't find this map, could u give link, pls?

I also couldn't find it here or on EpicWar. I had an older version in a folder of WC3 maps I saved before I uninstalled the game years ago; I uploaded it to EpicWar.

There's the link to it.

 

[Hydraxian]

Great revision. Always like new heroes, although sometimes too many can get overwhelming. Especially when they all have good abilities. Then again, I prefer that over the original WarChaser, where a couple of the heroes were utterly useless right from the beginning to the end, solo-wise.

This GRAND version, however, updated so many things. After reloading the game 18 times to see all the heroes and their spells, I finally got a friend and logged on. I chose Zeal, Undead Executioner while she chose Mayve, Draenei Tempest. We took it all the way to the Lich King, but she D/C'd halfway through the fight, which left me on my own. She suggested the only way to solo at that point was to manipulate fountain positions to my advantage. Sure, the fight took....at least 15 minutes of constant melee, but in the end, we finished this awesome map. (Helm of Bloodthirst and Killmaim were essential in this victory, I cannot stress enough.)

My favorite hero is probably the Tauren Shaman, however ~

Well its kinda late but this is still one of the best Warchasers maps out there. So congrats!
