hey everybody
i once worked on a alternative fighting system for wc3
it contains 3rd person view and arrow-key control for your hero.
i know, that´s not new or special at all, but there´s more:
***********************************
1. Attack
by pressing the "h"-button, the hero performs an attack which damages and pushes away everyone who is right in front of him.
--> you don´t need to right click on an enemy
--> you have to aim by yourself
--> you can hit several enemies with one strike
--> each hit pushes the enemy backwarts and stops him from attacking - so strike quick.
--> after all you dont even need an enemy if you want to strike
***********************************
2. Parry
by pressing the "s"-button, you are going to parry and won´t take damage from your enemies for a second.
Be aware that the enemies can parry too. Then they won´t take damage and won´t be pushed back, so they will immediatly start a counterattack.
an alternative option to avoid a hit, is the down arrow key: your hero jumpes backwarts and even already started attacks won´t hit you anymore.
***********************************
3. Special Moves
pushing the h-button twice per second will be boring after some minutes...
but there are moves which make the fight more interesting and they will definitve help you. To activate them, you have to press a special key combination.
-Whirlwind: the hero turns around 360° and hits every enemy around him.
Key combination: *left arrow button + attack (H)*
-Heavy Strike: the hero deals 150% additional damage, but your armor is drastically decreased for the duration of the strike.
Key combination: *attack (H) + up arrow key*
-Stab attack: increased range, damage increased by 50%, you can only hit a single target.
Key combination: *up arrow key + attack (H)*
each move has his own animation.
perhaps more moves are added lateron.
*************************************
as it is a very agility based figting-style, you don´t have many hitpoints and really have to focus on parry, pushing the enemies back and using your special moves.
as i want to here some feedback about it, i created a hero-defense-map with this system. you can just play it alone but i already creat the requiered triggers for multiplayer
the map:
-->View attachment Snoogans! Survival.w3x
well it´s just a beta, but it´s good playable
screenshots will follow
just give it a try and say what you think about it
especially to the following topics:
-too many enemies?
-not enough variety between the enemies?
-not enough items?
-300 kills are too much?
-and whatever comes to your mind...
have fun
P.S. the trolls won´t attack the obelisk at all, protect it against the goblin-guys with the explosives...
