  • The oldschool -AP -AR and such will ofc be in it.
• Tons of heroes, items and new spells (this map is made from scratch).
  • Advanced high-detailed spells.
  • Spells fit the history of the hero (each hero has a history that you can read about before you pick your hero. This is just to allow the players to learn more about the heroes and how they work).

This image shows the full map from above. The lane to the left is not done yet, I know More details will be in when the terrain is at about 95% done.

B E T A - V E R S I O N

Thats Right!
The BETA version will soon be out!
I must first fix the Terrain done to 100%, add the natural creeps and such.
Then, I will add a few systems and mods, some heroes, items and spells.

When those stuff is done, maybe in 2-3 weeks, the BETA of this game will be out!

Please support this work with tips, resources and such!

BETA PREVIEW OF THE COMING HEROES

Click to see the heroes!

Ok I have only made 1 hero with spells this far.


Name:Darkeye
Proper name: Skeleton Madness
Type: Darkness

Attribute: Agility
Range: 750 (Ranged)

More heroes coming soon!

 

[Super-Sheep]

Name is ok, but the fancy camera commands are so unnessecary and jailing will just make people to leave. And having unit and/or building upgrades makes it more unit based instead of hero based.

 

[HaniBon]

Thanks
Well, true, the Jailing will make people leave, I might remove that.

@upgrades
Well, I need something to make this AOS different from other AOS maps...
And ye, it will be a lot unit based, I think I'll make a command for this... Like, -uon (upgrades on)

 

[Pharaoh_]

Hm, not much of stuff to make a proper review, but let me focus on the current stuff:
1) Recipe system is no longer a 'feature', it's a must.
2) Good camera system, would be helpful for some people, although i doubt that many will ever use the first person camera.
3) Upgrades - I have seen it many times already, though i am all for this feature.
4) Kick -> Although i don't support this, since it can be abused, i can see it being useful only when a player is afk for a long period of time.
Jail -> 5 minutes is a lot. Also abusive.
-afk -> Contradicts with the kick command. You would want to kick the player who is afk, not support him, by rendering his units invulnerable. Against it.

To sum up, there is honestly not much to discuss. So far, all of the features are quite unoriginal (take that 'quite' out). The only thing that can save help this map become famous enough is a well-made terrain and a good/original gameplay. We need to see more. Good luck, you can PM me for changes.

 

[HaniBon]

Thanks!

As I said, I might remove the Jail thing.
About the Recipe system, what I meant with that was that you can upgrade towers using special recipes...

 

[Swerd]

Well this map seems interesting even though the different cameras is pointless people will not use them because of the disadvantage they will have against people playing with normal camera style.I like the upgrade tower idea even though it has been used.I reccomend dont work on anything until one thing is complete so work on terrain focusonthat nothing else then get the units thatwill spawn for the lanes into work for you to be able to set up the triggers.If you work on things one at a time you will finish the map if not you probably will not finish XD.But goodluck and i hope it turns out well.

By the way I'm your competition xD aha jk or am i

 

[HaniBon]

** BUMP **

News: 1st Screenshot now in!

 

[YeeShadow]

I looked at the terrain, it looks... flat, really flat, that's not good I didn't like it at all... try to fix that... or add more screenshots.

 

[HaniBon]

It aint that flat... More screenshots will come when the terrain is done

 

[Swerd]

ya i saw the terrain it looked nice just a bit flat xD

 

[HaniBon]

Check the new Screenshot, better?
Compare the first with the second, see the new big cliff in the watter?

 

[Swerd]

ahh yes now is see but how are you taking these screen shots so high up my world editor turns black XD if i go to high up.

 

[HaniBon]

haha secret can't let u know that, you are also making an AOS, ur my enemy ;D

 

[Swerd]

Aha isnt it another like WE because i remember i had a few different world editors that allow to take screenshots of full map terrain . But i dont care if were enemies ima end up playing your map when it comes out

 

[HaniBon]

Haha ok fine
Hold CTRL+ Roll your "Mouse Roller" up and down to see more/less of the map. The more = The more lagg, the less = the less lagg

 

[Swerd]

ahh ok thanks dont worry though your map is probably going to be better then mine because your probably older then i am and have more experience

 

[HaniBon]

I have about 3 years experience

 

[Swerd]

I got 2 years and im younger so i fail but i try my bestest to make the map good

 

[HaniBon]

Yea I'm sure it will be good

 

[Swerd]

how would u knoiw XD you havnt seen any of it

 

[HyperActive]

Any glimpse on the features, maybe something more?
From this point it just looks like you haven't thought this through (I made this mistake often).

Anyway, good luck.

 

[HaniBon]

I have some feature thoughts, but I want to finish the terrain and screenshots before I post them

 

[YeeShadow]

I have some feature thoughts, but I want to finish the terrain and screenshots before I post them

Mmmm... I don't think that's a good idea... because you might think in some other features that requires more terrain, or something like that, then you'll have to do it again.

 

[HaniBon]

I have updated with a few Features now, more will come soon

 

[Swerd]

Wow thats all i have to say so far my map fails compared to yours it looks really good exspecially those trees.I think i lost this XD i cant even run my map in the game anymore sadly .BUt i is working on solving that

 

[HaniBon]

haha if you need any help man, ask me

 

[HellslayerX15]

ok just 2 things

1. only 1 unit in the creep camp?
2. Me likes the assist system, just so you know

 

[Swerd]

i dunno hanibon im thinking now i shoudl just trash my map or give it to somone else i cant compete with you XD.

 

[HellslayerX15]

seriously swerd you don't need to compete just do whatever you want (Continue with your map? I don't know what you want.)

 

[Swerd]

well like if his map is better ppl will like it more then mine Q_Q and i wouldnt wanna waste my time if no one will enjoy mine

 

[HellslayerX15]

haha well I dont only make maps because I want ppl to enjoy them I also do it because it's fun xD

 

[HaniBon]

HellslayerX15 take another look:


And thanks, glad you like it!

 

[HellslayerX15]

haha I can barely even see them now because of them blending in with the environment but I guess that wont be a problem when looking on them from top

 

[HaniBon]

thats the thing, they are meant to blend in

 

[Squidle]

[HellslayerX15]

tip: you should set a number of heroes you will make for the BETA, or else you could end up just making more and more

Godlike bars btw ^^

 

[HaniBon]

Yea, I will make 12 heroes for the BETA.

 

[BaraBura]

I really hope that you don't quit this project! Dying to test the Beta!

 

[Pharaoh_]

Weaknesses and Strength! Copyright!
Please DO NOT copy this and use on your map/aos!

Oh, I'm sorry, did IceFrog tell you, mapmakers, anything about copyright stuff, when you copied these features out of DotA?:

Assist system
You get gold for Assisting in hero kills.
You get gold for Assisting in creep kills.
Deny system

 

[Super-Sheep]

Thats not copying rofl. Next time you gonna say that he is copying Dota because hes map has heroes too?

 

[Dreadnought[dA]]

As soon as I read the word copyright, I knew this project would fail hard. You're trying to copyright on the internet?

 

[Pharaoh_]

He names that a 'copyright', i speak of his tongue Tell me you agree with that "do not copy" thing and i shall kill myself. Plus, i wasn't that overreacting to claim that heroes "belong" to DotA, why did you get it that far?

 

[BaraBura]

I think he mean that he do not want other AOS maps to use that system. I agree with him, it seems really GOOD and if other AOS maps would have it, hes AOS wont be as special.

Well, nice to meet you; who wants the features he came up with copied in other maps? You can't prevent that. It is up to the members' morality to embrace this thing. Especially for an introduction post, that is a non-should-be-written thing, cause some people might misunderstand the author, like me and Dreadnought[dA] did:

As soon as I read the word copyright, I knew this project would fail hard. You're trying to copyright on the internet?

Anyway, enough of that, this topic gets rediculous posts already and people wouldn't want to take a look at 2 pages of fights.

 

[BaraBura]

True
