Approved
This bundle is marked as recommended. It works and satisfies the submission rules.
At long last, an awaited update for Footmen Custom has been released.
New things from .91b to .93a:
- Started everyone at tier 1 with 300 gold.
- Gave everyone a free first hero. No more teching.
- Minor Balance Changes
- Added a new hero: The Son of Peleus [Achilles]
What? New to Footmen Custom Series? Want to know the features of the game?
- Multiplayer Only. Computer enemies can never be a challenge.
- Designed for the Pro player. Tons of small goodies.
- Customizable Armies. You can add multitudes of orbs and spells to make your units act more like that of ladder troops, but with your own twist.
- Custom Created Jass Spells. The heroes have a lot of custom spells which you won't find anywhere else. These spells have nice effects and give a good overall feeling to the game.
- Heroes weaker than other Footmen maps. I'm tired of seeing out of proportion heroes slaying everything to pieces, making armies useless.
- Speed aura in the middle. This lets players move around a lot more early on, letting the pros able to manuever flanks and surrounds easier, and keeping the game more chaotic in the main battle field.
- Gold aura in the middle. Helps players get a reason to fight in the middle. It's a small amount of gold per second, but it's enough to keep the cash coming.
- Tons of options on what troops to spawn.
- QUESTS! Most footmen games neglect to put very important quests in the game, however, you can purchase mini quests at any time in this game, which give rewards!
But if there are so many good things, then what can be the problems? What are the bugs?
- Balance: So many things, so hard to balance. But so far it's a good job on most units and heroes, and suggestions are always taken.
- Bugs on LagSpikes: These things called "Lagspikes" sometimes occur. They aren't currently traceable, and it's really annoying.
- Mapmakers: The "team" of this project has been cut. It is down to a solo maker now, who doesn't know JASS very well.
- Quest bugs: Unfortunately, the original maker has left and the new maker doesn't have the ability to learn how to make quests. It's rather unfortunate.
- Difficulty: This game does have a high learning curve. It's more complicated than most, so obviously the typical player might have trouble learning it at first.
- Too Complicated: For some, this map has too many features and is too complicated.
Anyways, hope you enjoy the map! I spent a lot of time making it, and will continue to do so!
