Assassins v4.1 +AI

[Snowcrystal]

Put a time limit on mines (or knockback!)

Don't think knockback is good idea... there are 4 mines, you step into 1, get knockbacked and avoid the other mines xD

maybe decrease the AP cost of Tempest by 1, and from Bolas by 3

Tempest decrease is good, i think 10 ap prize for Bolas is good, fair long duration, nice range, blocks regen from potion and reveals invi units ( i think so, cause in dota it's working like that xD) so should stay at 10 or maybe decrease by max of 1

I also noticed that burning shuriken reduces armor of the target, you should add that to the tooltip

that was the point of adding knockback: to prevent spamming.

yeah, that was by suggestion, but I agree with you that bolas is well-worth the price as far as immobilizing spells.

I also noticed that burning shuriken reduces armor of the target, you should add that to the tooltip

indeed.

Ai to buy items is a must. Il be waiting for that update! When its done, il maybe create a tourny based on Assasins

 

[Snowcrystal]

Please make it so Flaming Shuriken/Kunai stack, i love hitting people with damage over time abilities then going off to find someone else, then getting a kill message 5 seconds later

That also need to be fixed Good skill combo and it doesnt work t.t

When is the version coming out where AI buy items

 

[Leathian]

Hey Baintastic love the map, I've been playing straight for the past 3 days.

Just a few bugs I found:
-Sometimes kunai will not go on cd after casting it. I believe this is due to the target going out of sight during the casting which causes the spell to cancel however the projectile still fires and hits the target.
-Sometimes when trying to jump up and down certain cliffs with the leap ability, my character will jump directly vertical and then land in the same position, then afterwards my character will have no collision size and will be able to walk up and down cliffs and through trees and units until I cast leap again.
-The shamans unique ability (cant remember what its called) will sometimes multiply when it is bouncing between two targets who are very close together so there will be 2 shock balls bouncing between them which often results in 2 instakills lmao
-Buck shot will sometimes deal damage but not knock the enemy away when they are too close to me.

Those are all the bugs I found but one more thing, I feel like ranged characters are just inherently more powerful than melee characters no matter what. This is all just from testing with AI and there are abilities that help melee units auto attack such as bola and blink but its still very frustrating when melee units auto attack animations are very slow making it almost impossible to attack running targets as well as I have to spend AP just so I can actually attack people who are running away.

Even considering these I still love the game PLEASE keep up the great work. I would give u a rep and a 5/5 if I knew how to but I made this account just now so I could comment on your game haha.

Edit: oh I have to have had my account for 10 days before I can rate

Sometimes kunai will not go on cd after casting it. I believe this is due to the target going out of sight during the casting which causes the spell to cancel however the projectile still fires and hits the target.

This has to do with the way I implemented Kunai. Originally, I was basing it off of Shadow Strike, but for some reason this spell would occasionally crash the game so I based it on Acid Bomb. Unfortunately, Acid Bomb was already being used for Burning Shuriken, so casting the spell actually creates a dummy unit that casts an Acid Bomb. If your hero is interrupted during the cast, the dummy unit will still follow through on the spell, causing the symptoms you are seeing. I don't really know of a way to fix this since it's already a work-around for a bigger problem.

Sometimes when trying to jump up and down certain cliffs with the leap ability, my character will jump directly vertical and then land in the same position, then afterwards my character will have no collision size and will be able to walk up and down cliffs and through trees and units until I cast leap again.

This is strange; I've never seen this happen.

The shamans unique ability (cant remember what its called) will sometimes multiply when it is bouncing between two targets who are very close together so there will be 2 shock balls bouncing between them which often results in 2 instakills lmao

Yes. This has to do with the way the spell was written. I know it looks glitchy, but I actually loved the way it turned out so I left it that way.

Buck shot will sometimes deal damage but not knock the enemy away when they are too close to me.

This is because buckshot is a circular explosion centered in front of the caster. What you are seeing is the target being pushed toward you. In this particular case, it looks stupid, but the target still ends up taking knockback damage from colliding with you.

Those are all the bugs I found but one more thing, I feel like ranged characters are just inherently more powerful than melee characters no matter what. This is all just from testing with AI and there are abilities that help melee units auto attack such as bola and blink but its still very frustrating when melee units auto attack animations are very slow making it almost impossible to attack running targets as well as I have to spend AP just so I can actually attack people who are running away.

That has always been the trade off with melee vs range. I tried to compensate for it by making melee attacks hurt more or giving them better stats.

Thanks for playing - I'm glad you enjoyed it!

 

[Leathian]

This is strange; I've never seen this happen.

I did some more testing and I found that standing as close to the edge of a cliff as possible seems to be the culprit. I tested it with 2 characters, the banshee and the crypt lord and it happened to both of them and occurred at all levels of the spell. I also tested multiple different cliffs and it worked on most of them. Heres a screenshot I took of the after effects.

EDIT: played another game today and the leap bug occurred when I was standing directly in front of someone

This is cool! 5/5 AI!

Edit
Ah, honestly, i can't give rate 'till become a member more than 10 days...

Map Reviewer: Hell_Master Map Name: Assassins Map Author: Baintastic Originality It is really great to see some maps such as this that has more than one gameplay type which means more enjoyment. This is quite original to me and I salute you for making a map like this. Score: 67/100 Presentation Presentation looks quite good even without much use of BB Codes that adds to its beautiful visuals but with just text modifers such as colorizers and different types of fonts. Presentation also is brief but proves to give much information about the game. Great job and expect a great rating here. Score: 88/100 Design Minimap Image and Loading Screen looks good and fits. Tooltips looks good though I would suggest also giving some brief and important descriptions to the item abilties instead of just writing down the item ability's name in items such as what it does and if there are incase some important infos such as how much damage it does or such, please do write it down, Quest Menu looks neat and gives alot of information, icons for all fits and no green or broken icons of some sort, models and SFX works perfectly fine and that is all. Score: 60/100 Terrain Terrain is good though I would suggest decorating the shallow water parts of the map by putting some little amount of doodads/ destructibles in it such as water doodads or environmental doodads. Remove the spammed waterfalls in the map also because it makes the game lag like hell when going there. Other than that, the terrain looks good and good job for that! Score: 56/100 Triggers Not the person to judge deeply of triggers so most likely, some of my points here are inaccurate so please do point out my mistakes. Triggers looks neat and organized though the game lags like hell as always when I go or engage myself with the enemies and fight with creeps. I do think this is some fault in the triggers but I could not point out exactly what's the main trigger it is. You should find it out and fix it because it is quite bad that way especially this is a Hero Arena/CTF game. Score: 54/100 Object Data Everything looks fine and well. Stats fits with each units and their abilities aswell. File size is very small knowing it is fun to play.Much points for that and great job! Score: 82/100 Gameplay Gameplay looks good. I like that you can have different game types here. It does not exactly focus on just simply kill-to-win but there are more things to do like in Capture the Flag, there is a different role to fulfill also. You could add some more items in it and bettery yet upgradable items also. Score: 71/100 Give some more informations to item abilties instead of just writing down their name. Write down some important infos in it to be noted by players. A little amount of doodads/destructibles to the shallow water parts of the terrain and also avoid spamming waterfalls (the area with many waves, as far as I know those are spammed waterfalls) because it lags like hell when you do that. Fix the lag that happens in-game when fighting or engaging heroes or creeps. More items would be better for this map seeing that there are more possibilities for a map like this that contains quite few for me. Final Score: 68.286/100 3/5 Contact: (Visitor Message) / (Private Message) / (Map Reviewers)

[sentrywiz]

Already out. Yours truly did it.

I just helped Baintastic's bots provide more challenge.
Also fixed some stuff around.

 

[RPG-Gamer]

Last request..can you make theterrain more cool and fun..

 

[0wyeah]

It's been a long time. Gonna download this now and test it . I don't know if you remember me, I posted a long time ago about a bug in the chameleon spell where when you die while 'inside' a creep you disappear forever. I never did find out how that happened, sorry bout that . I think it had to do with the other spells i had with me or with a specific character. Glad to know this is back tho my bro and I are gonna test this for bugs and post it asap.

 

[Stojke]

DM mode should be made so setting 100 or more kills is possible.
50 kills is very easy to achieve.
