AoS map.. why?!

[Dynasti]

What i think about AoS maps

In recent past years AoS has become one plague that we cannot escape. Some AoS are stupid while other ones are just.. weird( not saying that they aren't good ones out there). There are alot of types with alot of modes. The gameplay is good enough but come on! Where is the originality?! AoS is getting way old, like if you where to go play in you're backyard with your 80 year old grandpa. Sounds like fun eh?

One thing that i would like if they were to split the map up a bit. Make 4( or 3 ) teams instead of 2. So we dont get the lame shape over and over again. Make some twists in the gameplay.

Now someone of you might be thinking; "Pffh! You're just one of those dota haters". Then i can agree on that, I hate dota(why? I just dont like it, thats all).


My opinion, drop the bomb and leave AoS once and for all.

Warcraft 3 is probably still alive because of DotA. I mean, come on... my friend bought Wacraft 3 just so that he can play DotA. Be grateful.

Anyways, AoS maps isn't that bad. Sure, there's too many of them and surely some of them are stupid and dull, but that's the way it is. Make 4 teams, create some twist and add sick-looking models or whatever, they're still AoS. You just can't change that fact. And you can't leave AoS and expect Warcraft 3 to survive on just strategy, td, survival and LOAP maps.

Anywho, that's my opinion.

AoS is fucking boring and lame, ''Oh look i was just fast enough retreating my hero and now i have zero deaths! painfull for you that you weren't fast enough and i killed you on the last moment with TEH ABILITY!!!!!!!!!!!''

-.-

Oh and you know which maps also suck, those ring wars map thingies where you just have some crappy pre-made camps and then the only thing you do is spam alot of units and nuke the heroes for victory blahblah..[/Off-topic]

So you're whining that the maps sucks because there's folks that are better than you?

 

[Restor]

Ok, another whining thread


I am wondering about logic of you, you write Aos is boring, and sux, but dota is still the most played map on b.net, so your logic sux, not AoS

 

[HyperActive]

Maps I enjoy playing the most are in fact AoS-es. So, I can't really relate to what you're saying. Sure, I'm not a fan of DotA, but I can sure as hell respect it as a mod. I mostly spend my time on b.net waiting for games like Tides of Blood, Desert of Exile, Advent of the Zenith, Age of Myths... to appear.

If not AoS, what maps do you play?

Oh yeah they are so much better because they know how to use somekind of unevable ability on me when my hitpoints gew low and im not really paying attention. Just like with CoD 4 ''Look i haz a better K/D ratio than u I AM A BETTER!!!!''

Captain Obvious comment 2.

Yeah some people like to lame because their good at it -.-

 

[Viikuna]

AoS is probably the best wc3 custom map concept.

ToB, DoE and AotZ are great maps, and there are some not so well known AoS maps too, some of which are pretty good.

I always liked The Legend of Sand. With a little editing it would have been a hell of a map.

I hate dota(why? I just dont like it, thats all).

I dont like it != I hate it.
Im sorry to say this, but you sound a li´l bit jealous.

AoS fits perfectly with Warcraft engine. That's why it's so readily available. Most games have to bend and twist the game to their will while with an AoS, Warcraft 3 is perfect for it.

Captain Obvious seems like a nice guy
But seriously, should the game be made so that it is simplified? I thought people hated that..

 

[reza sword2]

I declare this thread fail. AoS is a part of Warcraft 3 and will be.

It's already very simple...

 

[Teh_Ephy]

AoS is probably my second-favourite or favourite map-type, and definitely the most common.

 

[Avex]

The only reason people hate DotA is because it cuts off alot of other games.

However most statements that say DotA keeps Warcraft 3 alive are TRUE.

I lost my Wc3 TFT Disk some time ago (B4 the Patch for no-disks) and had to play RoC Battle.Net, there were FOUR Games on the list, 1 was HLW RoC, 2 were melee's, the other one was some wierd japanese game.

 

[Teh_Ephy]

You can play TFT with the RoC CD, so you know. I always used to.

 

[LordDz]

Exactly, so you want it more complicated, or more simple?

 

[The_wand_mirror]

Exactly, so you want it more complicated, or more simple?

Well not more complicated, less lame.

 

[terradont]

Well not more complicated, less lame.

As a mapmaker you should be able to point out what needs to be changed instead of saying it's lame.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I like AoS games, they're about my favourite style, atleast when it comes down to the well-made ones.
The problem is that all new map-makers want to make another DotA, there's where the creativity fails.

 

[HailFireer]

Lol. WarCraft 3 isnt alive cuz of Dota. Most ppl play Dota using some other programs that alove you to play just Dota on internet. I can ask around and see witch arethey using.
But if they play LAN then they must use War3 TFT.

lolwut

 

[Parrothead]

He means Garena and a few other less popular programs which emulate lan so you can play without a cd key offline (but still have people join your game).

Yeah, from time to time I use flight simulator to play Wc3 .

...So it's still using WC3 to run the map itself, juts not Battle.net to host it?

I still enjoy a good AoS map. There's a reason they're the most popular.
