I'm guessing that my map making it to the battle.net popularity list, is 1 to 100...
People like crap more than quality...
I feel like I'm wasting time using the world editor...
But if I feel that...I guess I shouldn't play Warcraft.


------FACTS------
DOTA sucks...yet it is played for an eternity...

If you want to see porn, don't join or host it on Warcraft, just go to a website, you pervert.

If you like Run, Kitty, Run, adopt a cat and you'll
never ever play that game again.

If you like sheep tag...well...no comments...the map is just crap...

If you like FFoRPG, just go try and make maps, and experience how crappy FFoRPG is, and how effortless it was.
------END OF FACTS------

......If you think I made this post for some odd reason, like to have something to complain about, or, you just want to start a conversation, HAH! YOU'RE PROABLY RIGHT!
(No...you're really not right...)

I want to know what you guys think about Battle.net. If you guys can host, host some good maps, and spread
it...-.-




DON'T EVEN SUGGEST FOR ME TO PLAY WoW!!!
I HATE MMoRPGs!!!

Please, don't even remind me of the battle.net chat room. It's probably the most unmaintained internet place ever. They'll probably just ignore you or just flame you back. So yeah, go to a private channel. At least you'll feel much better.

1 in 100? That's being rather optimistic. Seems like the only way to get a map popular, is to find a big name map makers, steal one of his maps, make it "733t" with imbalances so that experienced players can slaughter people whio dont know all the secrets and call them "pwning n00bs" when they win, and immature humor/imported files and slap your name on it. Even the worlds best mappers dont get their maps on bnet. There doesnt seem to be any real guidline that does, minus what I mentioned above. This goes for all servers.

And heaven forbid that you host a map that actually takes more then one try to master....

"WAAAAHH THIS MAP SUXXOR!! I DIDNT WIN" *player dumb*** has left the game*

Lol so true, so many dota and tag type games on uswest. The only way your going to make your map popular or fun or to try to get other people to play it is, to host it yourself and play it a lot of times, Ive done that only with a few, gets boring though over and over. Most reasons why people dont host maps its cause they still dont know how to configure firewalls ports, or there connections are very slow(56k)or they dont like it, as for most 56kers, they would host small maps like sheep tag or something under 150kb since 56k limit upload is 5kb/sec. Thats how i was with dialup ,never hosted anything above 300kb. Since i have dsl now, i host prety much anything 100kb-4mb. Never liked dota, gets awefully boring over time, as goes for tob. Would like to see new types of maps. Anyway im like the only person that host different type of maps here lol, any new map that was submitted to this site , i usually go play it online, like to see whats its about.

Bnet is boring...the only clans people actually know are MaP, MaPz, and MaPs...honestly. Now i'm alot more interested in behind-the-scenes action like modeling, skinning, and hacking the map editor... :wink: I go on every once in a while. I even found a way to have a video loading screen. When i spread it on the net people are like "wtf dat r0ckz0r wat ur a 1337 haxz0r trin to n00b me". I must admit I am a member of MaP though. I wish they would have a higher filesize limit than 5 mb. People actually get scared from hacking threats. Like 9-31 year old people playing warcraft III for hours every day can actually hack a Blizzard game server. I design games independently with my own code language, better graphics than OpenGL and XBox, yet i'm only 11. spreading lame maps on bnet just seems pretty empty nowadays...

good

u have joined the cynical list, dark destroyer.

REASONS WHY DOTA IS POPULAR:
-its heroes are kool
-its heroes' moves are bloody awesome
-da layout of the map is good
-its just a great multiplayer map
-its so fun to play with your friends
-its so much better than battle for hoth
-its such an advanced map

so just enjoy da map for christ's sake, its a good socializing map, so just play it u anti-social nerds.

Well anything will be good for me as long as it is skirmish maps. I dont know if there a lot of excellent skirmish maps in B.net. I think you should have included in your options; B.net is not terriffic but I dont play it. :D

well i dont play on battle.net anymore really, but the actual set up for it is pretty nice. its just they need some good quality maps, and not just rigged games left and right. thats really the problem is that every time you get some noob host who rigged the game, and half the time it didnt work right or overloads the game, or is just useless. any way you look at it, it used to be good but now its just plain annoying.

oh, and im pretty sure grey archon was referring to the hamsters

DoBRP is cool im telling you! Still, you need to read all he triggers and understand. For that, i suggest that you learn in single-player and not in multi-player;

1) cause people will call you noob for shure and you will make bad figure.
2) Cause its useless, people will just see that you are a newbie and you cant learn well.

There are maaany commands that you may learn and it can be really cool. If you want, dl one of the terrains at www.warcraftrpers.com (its useless trying to download from battle.net).

The Answer to "Battle.net sucks for me" :



Ladder Games.
Most of us all agree the ladder games posted on battle.net are crap, so stop playing them.
Just try some ladder games, once you get good you will definatly like them. You rarly find a hacker.
If you think 1v1 or something is boaring, get a friend(s) and play a 2v2,3v3,or 4v4 arranged :D
