News in Version 1.405:

- Fixed one bug that occoured with TFT version 1.17
- Fixed a few balancing/description bugs
- Quest help updated
- Map is now UNPROTECTED
- New voting system for the intro
- This Release is called "FINAL"

This is maybe the last version of Gothic the Gathering.
We wanted to implement very much new features. But this would have destroyed the typical Gothic-the-Gathering-Gameplay. So we decided not to change the map. Instead we will make a completely different map (maybe with the same heroes, maybe in English language, who knows?).

But.. we will support Gothic the Gathering in the future. We will fix newcoming bugs and balancing issues. Maybe someone will translate our map into English...
Maybe we will introduce new icons for the abilities or the interface.
But the gameplay will be the same.

Gothic the Gathering is finished now! :)

its just plain boring to look at :?

the map might be great and well balanced, but when it looks like a tourist group of cleptomans trashed trough yer map, it just gets boring X-/

Ok here are the informations:
-No Balancing
-Imba Items

I doubt that you have played the map more than once! I think it's balanced very well

You are right, the terrain is really crap and there are really not very much doodads. But also think about the benefits of that:
- No lag in battle.net
- No things that could deflect players (think about q3 players that turn off all textures)
- Short loading time
- Less effort for the mapmaker :)

Anyway, thanks for your criticism, I'll try to remember about that when I make my next map.
You guys really help me to become better :D

I actually don't understand how this site can be hosting a map in german. Well...it's not exactly the same but think about what Darky wrote about WoW. It's like letting only american people get the game before all other. This is the same...only that it is not american, it is german instead! Well...as I said it's that much as WoW but still...
I'm gonna try out the map since it actually got hosted (even if I often think the hosted projects are crap too). I don't expect anything good from a german map...

Well... :(
I'm very sorry for that and I agree with you. It's just unfair to make a map available in only one language. But when I started to make this map it was a very small project and I first didn't plan to release it somwhere on the web.
I'm currently trying to translate the map into English (there is progress already :))
My next map will probably be available in English language first
