I tested the map and here is my review:
Gnome Rogue:
3/5 - The skin was decent. He had a bit of a big head (lol) and doesn't really look like a gnome, more of a really short human. None the less, I gave a better review for him.
NE Druid:
2.5/5 - You need a skin for him. Abilities are named correctly and all that. That gives you a
+ for this hero.
Draeni Hunter:
3.5/5 - Skin is good, and abilities are better. One thing though; you should rename "Summon Wolf" as "Call Pet" and have a random skin for the pet, so it's not always a wolf. Spider, bear, etc would be coolio.
Human Warrior:
2.5/5 - Skin was mehh (okayy). Abilities fixed, this is a
+ for this hero.
Gnome Warlock:
4/5 - Good skin, looks like a real WoW Gnome Lock. Abilities fixed, another good thing. I left at 4 however because for a
5/5 you need to add more abilities.
Human Mage:
2.5/5 - Skin meh. A better one would be nice. Abilities are good, that's a
+ for this hero.
BE Warlock:
2.5/5 - Skin was mehh. Abilities and icons are better than the last test, but need more abilities in general.
BE Mage:
2.5/5 - Pretty much the same skin as the BE Warlock.. "mehh". Abilities and icons same deal.
Orc Shaman:
2/5 - Skin is okay. Shamans don't use fist weapons though so a new one should be found for real game accuracy. Abilities / icons same deal.
Tauren Hunter:
137/138 - I really don't know where you found this skin, I'm completely in love with it. It has real WoW stand animations etc. Hands down the best skin in the game.
-1 because of abilities (lol). Same as Draeni Hunter; change to "Call Pet" with random skins for the pet itself. Add more abilities.
UD Rogue:
4.5/5 - Another excellent skin, however I think the tauren is still win
cute
. Add more abilities / icons etc.
Orc Warrior:
3.5/5 - Skin was pretty decent, though it just doesn't fit. For an excellent game try to find better ones (I know you're looking for a model creator atm so I'll give you credit for finding decent ones without one).
General: As stated above you need some more custom icons. The abilities seem to be properly named and some icons do match their actual abilities (Druid seems to be the best atm). Another thing you might want to do is add some random names. This can be done in the unit editor [Name - Suffix] or something like that.. it's the window where you can [Add] multiple names. Just add a bunch and it will randomize in the game. Realistic usernames would be awsomeso (maybe some friends you'd like to idolize?). Also one thing I noticed was that you don't have the trigger added to select the your hero once you choose it, and if you need help with this you can reach me at
[email protected]. Lastly you need to add a -repick command for say the first 30-60 seconds of the game. It would be a nice feature.
Terrain:
3.7/5 -
Definitely an improvement from the last test I did. Trees etc are nice and realistic with the [World Tree] + [Extra Large Tree] placed on top; it adds to realism. One thing though is you need to add the bases. If you've never actually played WoW or just want help with how the bases can be managed, add my msn. There are ways to overlap terrain and actually have a tunnel where you cannot see your character etc. I have a few ideas in mind I'd like to share with this. Having the full 3 layered bases would be really awesome.
Conclusion:
3.5/5 - Definitely an improvement as stated in the terrain comment. I love what you've done, you've shown that you can turn a P.O.S into a fine piece of work. Some more minor details and a few terrain changes and this will be ready for a decent release. Keep up the good work
Edit: Forgot to change a color on one of the ratings.
