Co-op Commanders: Gnoll Hunting

[DrakPanda]

this is not a campaign please alter tags accordingly

more screenshot(s)?

since its suppose to be like the co-op commanders in sc2 perhaps some context screen shots of gameplay?

 

[Otherknownoise]

Well I don't have any partners, so I stuck in the dark part and can't play.

 

[Bangsgaard]

This post now has screenshots of gameplay (Thank you DrakPanda for feedback)

The game is intended for 2 players, but you can play as 1 person if you write -test after the selection screens.

Ohh Akama <3
Knew people where working/going to make some of these
made in/for Classic or RF graphics ?

 

[Bangsgaard]

I think it works for both versions, but i have decided to dedicate it to Reforged graphics. They have more in-game models and make the Dranei units look way better.

Arthas cannot buy corrupt orb due to lack of orc tie3 base... Thrall do not have 2nd hero, and mini base is human one, and cannot upgrade lvl2 attack..
besides, hard difficulty is still too easy..

 

[Bangsgaard]

@ooinzaghi All of your mentioned bugs have already been fixed and will come to you in our next big patch (Patch deadline latest 15/04/2020)

 

[ooinzaghi]

nice. this map is kind of lacking elements compare to any of sc2 co-op map. so at most 3 games you will not find anyting new to play...

 

[Bangsgaard]

@ooinzaghi Agreed. This map is more of a demo map. We are planning on making more maps with more dynamic gameplay.

 

[ooinzaghi]

ok. do you have contact with other authors of similar sc2 co-op maps in hiveworkshop?

 

[Bangsgaard]

We have a discord server with other people interested in the genre. One of them is making similar co-op maps, but the rest are people who want to either test or help making my maps into reality.

 

[ooinzaghi]

wish you good luck

 

[Bangsgaard]

wish you good luck

Thank you very much

 

[Bangsgaard]

New patch is live!

 

[Wazzz]

Oh snap, no Arthas? 0/10

Sounds pretty promising so far, definitely happy someone's doing the co-op commanders for Warcraft, it seems so perfect for it.

 

[Bangsgaard]

Yeah it is a shame, but we couldn't come up with a concept for him

 

[ooinzaghi]

great! in the office now , can't wait going home to have a try

 

[Shar Dundred]

Map appears to be functional & doesn't break any rules.
Approved.

Well,played new version for several days. New models of some units are very wonderful. All the missions were still same as before. Hope for new terrains, missions and new the functions of commanders.

Sylvanas has infinite F3 free units. maybe a bug, old ones never disappear when new ones comes. Besides, her healing spellcasters were worst ones.
Muradin has no healing for none machine units, even no healing items in the shop. The healing skill of rifle man is totally useless. The upgrade of the 1200HP big tank is bugged.
Tyrande seems no big difference from original NE despite lacking some units.
Kel'Thuzad has the strongest F3 unit but last too short and has too long cool down. Enemy units come in some groups continuously but no big waves. this one does least in the early defence.

Despite of Sylvanas no one has the second hero. hope for new heroes and bigger maps for creeping,

Thank you for your great feedback! We will start bugfixing. Whenever the commanders are polished we will start making bigger better and more diverse maps. If you are more interested in testing and discussing commander concepts, you can join our discord trough the link i have sent you in your DM's.

What version of WC3 are you playin' with? It doesn't run on mine (V1.27)

I tried the map with some friends:
Truth is, the core idea is very well, it being like Sc 2's Coop missions...Yet the way you developped the core idea is weak, IMHO.
I found the map "OK-ish", but my friends said very fast "Sorry but this is boring", which I kind of agreed on.
Again, IDK what's wrong with the map. IDK if its the Gnolls, the overall map, or what... But yeah it does get boring fast.
You have potential to do better, I bet you can ! GGWP overall tho.

First of all thank you for your feedback
I am very aware of this problem. The reason why it is boring is because of its lack of dynamics. You get attacked by waves, build your force and a-move to victory when you have enough units. To make it more interesting i will try to force the players to get more out of the base, change up the enemies etc. Though this is easily said than done, as it takes a lot of time to make a mod this big single handedly.
If you like the concept and would like to improve upon it you can always join our discord server (Join the Warcraft Coop Discord Server!). You don't have to be a map maker - coming up with ideas and giving feedback about gameplay is also a big help.

Damn... i was trying to do the same thing hahahaha good work!

 

[Crixis48]

I really liked the idea! Maybe the map's kinda easy, in pair of being the commanders (maybe just akama) too op. I found really weird the name of "Commanders", why not something like heroes? It would feel much more like warcraft imo. Great work! I will stay tuned for more of your work

Both map and commanders are currently getting improved upon. If you want, you can help out mapmaking and come with ideas on our discord server
