Good idea. I add the selection in V1.01... hopefully
The original map was good but buggy and empty. I appreciate the work VGSatomi did but when we first start talking; I had a Battle Royale map similar to what she already had... and when I learnt that the map was incomplete and she abandoned it... tada!

Pretty much all of the new features are what I had in mind. In fact; I would have done a new map thats flawlessly accurate to the Batte Royale movie island.

Here are some old screenshots of that map. The reason I never finished it was that map has this weird crash I can't fix as of yet. Maybe in the future...

About the 6 megabytes. I HATE using default models; not because their bad but its not the map I wanted to make. I did this risk by making the map as close to Battle Royale as warcraft can offer. I've had about 8-10 online games on Battlenet now; and only 2 of 100ish downloaders (not everone stayed) had really slow download speeds. Most were average+

I know; but it just wouldn't be the map I wanted to create if it wasn't. Believe me... it could have been 7 megabytes...

[Blackgaze]

Ok sure.

I found a few bugs. I forgot to fix the Uzi one; but the Toolbox... man... don't go near that toolbox. Game over seems fine though; except A.I players during multiplayer need to die (colour red -> dark green)

V1.01B shall fix these. Uzi and Toolbox need to be changed quick

 

[Blackgaze]

Version 1.01B is here. It needed to be out fast to fix the Toolbox and Uzi. I fixed some other minor details and added a new item to see how long it would take to add new features
Enjoy folks! Hopefully this should be it for now...

i dislike the latest updates. of course, the previous version was imbalanced (chain and ball, etc.), but you rebalanced it too much imo. due to an enormous amouts of of nerfs and a decreased amount of spawns, the game pace is so much slower and boring now, and it takes much more time to kill a char now, because sleep doesn't regen as much mana, and there are not much insta mana regen items

To be honest the changes ain't that bad. But I do agree about the lack of weapon spawns.

Chain and Ball WAS far too unbalanced; but it still kills good.
Sleeping Perhaps; but you start off with a lot more energy now.
While I did want longer fights between players; it didn't turn out as I wanted and some fights require you to retreat more often than usual.
I won't be doing an update for a while, but I'm thinking of how to mix the two up. This map will never be balanced perfectly; but some stuff was too annoying to NOT fix.

If it really REALLY bothers you stick to V1.00 or V1.01A (http://war3.incgamers.com/?p=mod&m=11614 can download them under a new file name)

 

[Blackgaze]

Other than new items/weapons, Dangerzone Collar Beeps and the new game mode "5v5 Clanwars" I see what I can do about the slower gameplay next version. It be a while though; having a break unless something important comes up.

 

[SnaKy]

melee weapons should do 3D sounds, since it's kinda strange to hear slash of knife from like hundred of meters
and perhaps AI could use weapons too (they don't?)

 

[Blackgaze]

3D sounds was planned for 1.00... World Editor doesn't like them.
I have one new idea to do 3D sounds for melee weapons... but I can't say it would work

A.I are mixed; sometimes they attack... and of course; they just keep default attacking. They don't do every weapon though, grenades they NEVER EVER use

 

[SnaKy]

i could help you with the 3d sounds if you want, it's kinda easy once you get it pm me

I know how to do them. I did them with several tests. It wouldn't work for the custom files, but it worked for others

 

[SnaKy]

i can work with custom as well, just wanted to help you out, dont care

 

[Blackgaze]

I see what can be done.
It be a while till the next version comes out; got a lot of important work to catch up on. Weeks to a month perhaps

 

[Tanasren]

This is fun but there are not much actions that u can do and it's boring ! I mean you search for weapons, you run, you hide and you autoattack most of the time :x it's boring but the "ambiance" (dunno if i can use this word) is really weell done

 

[Cweener]

Hmph...
I really cannot approve this, but Needs Fix works.
You must Physically Show evidence she allowed you to work on this map.
I realize it was years ago, but rules are rules.

I've finally managed to contact Satomi after ages, and she should send a reply back to you soon.

In other news (since Starcraft II was a dissapointment) I will be returning to continue work on this map, and hopefully regroup the players.

V1.02 will contain major gameplay changes and tweaks. I will focus on more features in later patches, but I will try and add a ONLY HUMAN PLAYERS mode for the next patch.
