Anime SKYD 0.8c

[Deleted member 247165]

Review	Anime SKYD
Key Concept	AoS - My favorite type of map. Nice loading screen. There are enough pieces of information in the Quests menu, which I appreciate. There aren't too many characters from those anime that you selected. No Sasuke for the Naruto faction? Warcraft 3 icons and items combined with anime does not look so great. I advise you to stick only to the anime universe for this map. Aside from this, improve the description of this bundle!
Gameplay	Standard AoS gameplay except that here are 3 bases instead of 2. I picked Kakashi to play the map. "hero with sharingan" , name him Kakashi Hatake and as a class, call him the Copy Ninja, exactly how it is in the anime. You'll have people that like anime, complain about things like that, trust me. The skills set is nice and the execution was done well. The substitution jutsu item shares a cooldown with the blink item, though is not mentioned such thing. Seconds can be shortened as sec not seg, fix that. The area of effect of his first spell, Katon, is not corresponding with the actual size of the model, 3 enemies touched by the flame, but no damage. Random messages in Spanish appear, even though I played the English version. The towers deal a ton of damage from the very start of the game, they should be upgraded over time and increase in power as your hero increases in power as well so you won't be able to tower dive in late game. The items seem ok but you can work more on them and modify them to fit the anime theme.
Terrain & Aesthetics	The terrain is really not ok. Warcraft 3 tilesets combined with few anime. Anime trees that are fully green put on a snowy field, does that make any sense? There are no camping zones or places to build up a strategy so you can ambush an enemy. Things like that are important for an AoS terrain.
Wizardry	Anime spells with good execution that fit every character.
Final Suggestions	Stick to only anime! Stop combining warcraft 3 with anime because they really do not blend well together. Drastically improve the terrain, fix what I mentioned above and add more heroes.

As for now, this should go in awaiting update with a 3/5. Improve and I will raise my rating.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION

• A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  
• A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  
• Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.

Get it, i will post the credit list and changelog. The multiple version is by different Language, ENG = English and ESP = Español.

 

[deepstrasz]

So, where are the credits? The names of authors or links to the resources you've used. Who ripped the models/sounds/music. From what game/company are they from etc.

The rules specify the credits should be in the map thread description.

1. Please fix the non-English lines in the game like: no tienes espadas que mejorar.
2. Items and some abilities need proper descriptions. Learn about tooltips:
   Tooltip Tutorial
   Creating Good Descriptions
3. For instance Break Earth also stuns for a very short time but it's not mentioned.
   
4. The terrain is almost totally flat and has little tile variation. You should improve it or find someone to help you with it or use a template from: Template | HIVE
5. It's confusing that you've used units as towers instead of buildings or something that doesn't have too much animation. Boats are OK but the demons are just like the ones moving.
6. Try not to use units with hero glow as non-hero units.

The concept is basically like in these maps:
Bleach vs. Naruto vs. One Piece 1.95
Naruto Ninpou Storm 8.8

Awaiting Update.

1. You could make the selection zone look nicer. It's basically a flat one tile piece of land with three taverns on and 3 "circulo".
2. Syunsui Kyoraku isn't available or why is the cooldown bigger for that hero?
3. Terrain hasn't been improved.
4. Every creature is called minion.
5. You've written the hero name as the unit name. It's supposed to be the other way around, the rank should be on the experience bar not the proper name.

Awaiting Update.

1. I'm just working on it for the next version.
2. Unfortunately, yes, he's not an available character. My goal was to create 3 new characters but I couldn't finish it in time.
3. I have a lot of problems with the terrain, I need help with that. Someone sent me a very good DOTA style template but I haven't had enough time to guide me and apply it to the map.
4. Any suggestions? I don't really think the name of the Minion or simple units is very important, but I'm open to suggestions, especially because the classification of those units can't be distinguished at first sight even though each of them has its own characteristics.
5. It will also be one of the next changes for the next version. These details really give me laziness, especially because I'm an engineer and I focus more on the functional part.

 

[deepstrasz]

The only actual problem here is the terrain. If you can make it nicer. I've linked some terraining guides the first time I commented.

You can also request somebody to help you (Requests) or ask around (Terrain Board).

 

[GShiro]

Thank you, I'll keep that in mind.

1. Super Strength doesn't have a DISBTN, looks like a green square on F10/game pause. Learn about icons and how make DISBTNs if your icons don't have any:
   Button Manager v1.8.2
   BLP Lab v0.5.0
   Complete Icon Tutorial - All About Icons
   How to Make an Icon
2. Black Bleach Minion should have a bigger selection circle.

The terrain could still be improved but it's OK.

Approved.
