Cataclysm AoS v1.17

An AoS-Style map based on the World of Warcraft Universe.

Fight in yet another epic battle between the forces of Azeroth in a struggle for the worlds diminishing resources. Fight as the Horde, or the Alliance in a team-based and co-operative assault against the opposing team.





This is an early release of the map so there's much to be updated, however, it's fully playable in it's current state and makes for an interesting play online :)

How about make for the Lich King raid? That would be nice. :D

You should keep in mind that cloudwolf does not even play world of warcraft.
And would be even better if you said ICC and not lich king raid, becouse that could be any raid in the expansion so called Wrath of the Lich King :p

Also.. this:
I rarely find time to work on war3 maps
Do not expect a map like ICC. :p

I don't see what's so great about this map other than it's terrain and special events (but even these get very annoying; i.e. the pirate one). There are only like 5 heroes, and they are the same heroes on both sides, so no variety. The game gets boring after a bit, because all you do is take control of one checkpoint after another, and there's no real "strategy" in this whole thing. It's all back and forth hack and slash domination. There are also barely any items. Don't say I'm a DotA nerd, because I'm not, but at the moment, I would say DotA is much better than this map. This map has a long way to go before it is really any good. For now, just improve the hero aspects. It's a major downer on this map when there is no variety and everyone has the same heroes. Add much more items, and make them more complex with recipes, special effects/abilities, etc.

Rating: 2/5.

You know, there is no need to have a lot of heroes to be a good map..

We have classic Extreme Candy War. They have what, 5 heroes for each side as well?

LOL "hehe"

:grin: you know that the Rank doesnt says how much the Player is skilled on "Medal Of Honor" im on like 300 000 Place and when i join a Game im like in the TOP 1 i always stay on top of Killings and Defending a Capture point or attacking a Capture point im Elite Sniper on verry Verry Big Rank but im not on First Place of the Game Statistic and still that doesnt stops me to be N1 in Game Last Statistic Checked 21 Kills 9 Deaths in place where Everybody are Hidden and if you try just show your leg or Arm or a Single Part of your Body you are Already Dead , but thats not the Point , my point of view is that i DO NOT UPLOAD or Make Researches here that doesnt matter i do not make a few maps a Month :) with some LAME GUI Systems that totally Rock everything like Skill = 0 / Required 20 ( For Next Profession Level wich could be learned at the Proff'Treiner ) but when you open your Stats you see 0 / 95 and you need only 20 skill for next level and such a things like Backpack System , Explaining You Have Weapon in Inventory you pick up weapon the weapon goes in the Backpack and tells you "You Already Have a Weapon" if you move the Weapon from your Backpack in your Inventory your Current weapon goes in the Backpack and you are Equiping the Moved one :) and others like i made myself a GUI ( 6-7 Lines Stack System the item doesnt metter ) Killing Metter , and .... i can talk all day long but the Facts wont change
*Call me Stealer if you wanna but i HACKED several Warcraft Maps and i Studyed them for good like !!! Merchant that Items Curcles !!! Explanation: the items that the Merchant sells they change like in the first moment he is selling STAFF Level 1 (req) Shield Lvl 2 (req) Armor lvl 3 (req) Weapon lvl 2 (req) (REQ - REQUIRED) and in the next moment he sells STAFF Level 3(req) Shield Lvl 1(req) Armor lvl 6(req) Weapon lvl 1(req) in the other moment Other and Bonuses that they give are Others :) aint so Complicated when you know how or when you learned it somewhere.

After all im trying to say is WHEN YOU DONT KNOW ME DONT TALK ABOUT ME
BETTER SAY Is he Skilled Enough to do Something Like that
OR
(PREFFERED) How You Gonna Do that MAN ? ? ?

:goblin_boom:
and if thats a Problem i wont touch his/her map , after all he/she made it do what you please ( I dont wanna make this in Personal War or anything like that... anyhow i will continiue my work now )

It's a custom texture I've imported to replace the default skin :) Your welcome to use anything you like from this map :p

no worries :) I totally agree, rank and rep dont really mean anything in terms of the quality of work one can produce :) If anything, its just a value of trust.

We're all pretty laid back when it comes to modding and its probably best to take everything people say with a pinch of salt :p

Cant wait to see what you can make :)
 
Equipment system , Talent System , Bag System , TechTree Abilitys System , T Sets , Sockets and Slots for them
i already sayed how i will improve the map :) with a few more systems of my own :)
Some systems (like some from above) needed a lot of time for very skilled vJassers to make!

I just hope that you will give credits to some!

Ok i was very impressed by the enviroment of both Diabloe3Warcraft and this, but I have to be very honest admit that the spells are so damn normal and boring. Plus the spells are not MPI like paladin's waveshock for instance. 5/5 for terrain. others, like Diabloe3Warcraft; doesn't deserve rating because I believe you're not even close to be finish yet.

But that version has not been released yet.
Heres another Taster of a item.

Lionheart Crossbow

So you want to say this item makes you attack slower or you mistyped?

Noo its not a mistype,
The reason behind that is, if it was to also have increased attackspeed, it would make it imba, if you know what i mean? Attack damage like that and agility bonus, but if they wish to increase their attackspeed, they can purchase gloves :)
 
Ok just asking, i have not tested the map yet myself, but i am going to after my friend comes online. We tried to test it once but then after start he was unfortunately forced to go away.

MAy i ask, are you trying this version or my version and if you guys need someone else to come test :)
I am more than delighted to help.

My review of the map.

Good
[+] In my taste this map was way and more better than DOTA. DOTA is just careless battle not fun.
[+] Good balance and good spells.
[+] Is fun to play with friends
Bad
[-] Items from the legendary shop are too expensive
[-] You dont have time to make instances as the enemy just keeps banging you. No time!
[-] Too low ammount of heroes
[-] maybe too fast exping. The game is very fast and finishes too early.
Improvements
[=] Create more new items that can be used and obtained
[=] More time for instances
[=] Fix the lag with the deaths, much delay till its visible
[=] You can see when enemy respawns, not cool
[=] Make a little less EXP gain, so the game is longer

This is my revie of the map, 4.6/5

Very nice terrain. GJ, i love your terrains! :thumbs_up:

But about the triggering... GUI (BJs are MUCH slower than pure natives[for example IsUnitAlive(u) is 4x slower than GetWidgetLife(u) > 0.401]), and leaks A LOT. My pc started lagging after a few minutes in single player... And the information text should be colored, because not they're... they're ugly.

I can assure you that he is correct about this one.
Yeah, it's true... i've extended Kricz's inventory system with a Recipe, a custom shop and a RecipeParser, and now it's about 3500 line... without the item and recipe initialization. The Recipeparser, the Recipe system and the shop system took me about 2-3 days...

Terrain is nice, Spells arent, U get graphical errors, Spawns arent balanced, Events are always the same, Low amout of items/legendary ones cant be purchased before game ends, If Player leave early, the remaining players get too much exp and are just unbeatable, No Assist, No special Spawns, Only a few Unit Upgrades, and so on and so on.
I dont get it why every1 rates it so high. Gets a 2.5/5 from me.
