Infected Zombies v2.3

[Thomatrix]

I really liked this map, its really well done and every class is interesting to play. So far I have played with almost every class and I found some little bugs.

Bugs:
-Sometimes Ranger Pet system doesn't work and I can't revive my pet, or I can't tame a pet for first time if I saved my character with no pet tamed before.
-Alchemist passive ability is not stopping bleeding damage as the description say. I'm not sure if the warrior and the knight increased strength increase is working, it is added as base stat?
-The Progress bar for cooking is bugged. It is slower than the real progress of creating the recipe and a lot of times it never dissapear.
-The gate of the Hound Master for the quest is destructible, and if destroyed the mission cannot be completed.
-Durak amulet doesn't dissapear when the quest is completed.
-The undead waves attacking the city sometimes are impossible to defeat (alone at least). There is a zombie that stuns for too long and with some more of them its impossible to move if they hit you. It's really frustrating, specially if your character is saved on that town and you appear in the middle of the zombie army. (I lost 3 lifes in a row for this reason the first time that I played)
-if you have a revival potion in effect and you die with just 1 life left, the item to revive is created even when you are not really dead.
-Sometimes the gates don't open after a zombie invasion ends, so you have to enter from other place.


Suggestions:
-The heat system is really a good detail, but I suggest you to make heat decrease faster in the snow area. At least in easy difficulty it can be ignored most of the time (And you could add a winter armor set to make heat not reduce or reduce slower, that would be great).
-Right now there is no quest that makes you go to the swamp, so it is very easy to not notice that area the first time that you play the game.
-The town's gates as they are right now are more annoying than helpful if you aren't using a ranged class. None of the guards have a ranged attack and you can't pass them if you were out of the town. There should be at least one guard with a gun, or a tower to make them more useful.
-There should be a way to see if a revival potion is in effect, it is confusing.


Questions:
-How is the revival system supposed to work? (when a player don't have any life left) They don't revive even when I go to the church carrying the item :/

-Is there any way to recover an infected town? Because even when I kill every zombie and buy new guards, it keeps looking the same way and its not attacked by the waves.

P.D.: Sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language.

10\10 love to play it again and again

 

[Evilz]

Nice map !

hope to see more ranged weapons

 

[Minion]

I love this map
First let me just say I haven't had this much fun with a Warcraft map in years, the well designed class and survival system and detailed world makes for an amazingly fun and immersive experience. Shortly after 1.6.2 was released I went on a binge session testing out every class, their abilities, weapons and armour.

Bugs
-In two of my playthroughs I noticed the hydras stop respawning after clearing out the swamp for the 3rd time.
-The main entrance to the gem mine doesn’t reopen after completing the quest to kill the yeti. I don’t know if this is a glitch or not but please fix it.
-The smithing progress bar is bugged, sometimes it won't show and sometimes it gets stuck on full green bars(100%) This is most likely to happen when forging armour and weapons.
-Either this is a bug or I must be the most unluckiest person in the world. During my alchemist playthrough I was killed more by potion x than anything else. I literally died 8 times, got paralysed 5, refreshed once and haste 4 times. I never shrunk or got super sized.I started drinking defence potions every time before using potion x.

Suggestions

-Other than slowing down the first undead attack and annoying melee heroes, the gates are pretty much useless unless there is ranged class, maybe add or change one or two guards with bows and crossbows?
-More town defence investment opportunities for the player, like a tower or mercenaries. The second town is poorly protected even with all the guard upgrades and I always find it weird visiting the priest who is chilling all safely in his church while all his friends outside are either dead or looking to snack on someone's face.
-Remove the ability to hire guards and respawn for towns that have fallen.
-Bigger changes for towns that have been taken over by the undead. For every town that falls spawn a unique strong undead that hunts the player(s)
-Either stop or remove the invulnerability for travelling merchants that have one of their towns overrun by undead.
-Please add a mithrill mine, I played alone so the rate at which mithril is dropped multiplied by the amount of players and amount of mithril needed for epic items equals a long slow grinding process and possible arguing amongst friends.
-New travelling merchants between towns with unique items.
-New classes like a mage, cleric or monk.
-Don’t stop adding stuff to this map. Seriously dude, this has been insanely fun to play.

cheers

Hey guys,

It is good to hear that you love my Map and thanks for your comments feel free to post any suggestion or idea.

Hi Minion,

Thanks for your comment and suggestions I will implement some of them.
The main entrance at the Frozen Mine does not open becouse it is intended.
Potion-X has only 5% to instant kill you(you were really unlucky).

I will release next update at this weekend

 

[MagicLord]

Map updated to 1.7

Hey Guys,

Map updated to 1.7, please read the changelog
I had to modify the Save Code, due to the new Paladin Rank System, so you have to update your Save Code manually.

Example:

Old Code: xxxxx[xx-xx](xx-xx)xx-xx:xx --> New Code: xxxxx[xx-xx](xx-xx)xx-xx:00:xx
Just write ":00" before ":" in the code. If you have trouble updating your code just PM me.

 

[sabishii]

i love this map from the first time uploaded..

 

[sabishii]

bro, when i throw bomb from alchemist skill to grand necromancer suddenly my game fatal error..

 

[MagicLord]

bro, when i throw bomb from alchemist skill to grand necromancer suddenly my game fatal error..

Hi sabishii,

I do not know what cause the fatal error, I tried what you wrote and I did not crash or even have fps drop. I used Explosive Coctail many times and I am sure it is not causing crash.:S

Maybe if you can give me details about what you did before it happened and how much time passed it may help me to resolve the problem.

 

[donatzky]

good game...

 

[Kibougamine]

I found something weird,when i'm about to cut a tree,i missed the tree and clicked on the grass instead,means i 'chopped' the grasses with my axe,and it gives me wood o_o
Another weird stuff,after the guards are dead because of an Undead siege,i hired more guards,but they just keep moving back and forth from the town hall to the front gate,i was like "What the flip are you guards doing?"
Please fix that in the next update ._.

i know, at front of gate first town right?
we can cut grass and got woods.

 

[Kibougamine]

I say it once more,this is an amazing map,feels like Skyrim in Warcraft,in fact,there is a puzzle resembling one of the Skyrim Puzzles.
Bleaks Falls Barrow Puzzle,am i right?

 

[MagicLord]

Hi Kibougamine,

I will fix grass "chopping" and guards in the next update.

Finally, it is good to hear that someone like the Puzzle.

 

[RPGplayerD]

Some bugs about S/L sys:
In v1.7, I can't load my ranger with lv12.
I've tried many times, I can load my ranger lv11 with pala rank lv 17, but can't load lv12 with pala rank lv17, lv 21, lv 22, or lv 25.
ID: RPGplay_Di,
code lv12 pala17:-load flrkbh[cN-c4-bq-cK-aK-ce](0F-cX-c2-)0k-0N-cv-:bv:iH
code lv12 pala22:-load flrpbh[cN-c4-bq-cK-aK-ce](0F-cX-c2-)0k-0N-cv-:bw:iU
also, I lost my two-hand weapon sometimes after load.
The pala rank may has some bugs. It levels up incorrectly with every 30 kills: sometimes it will have a lv jump(lv1-lv3, lv3-lv10,), and sometimes it won't do anythiny (once it did nothing after 120 kills).

 

[MagicLord]

Hi RPGplayerD,

Thank you for reporting bugs it also helped me to hunt them down so they will be fixed in the next update

Please check your inbox (I fixed your Save Code)

 

[Karassu]

First try took me 3+ hours to finish.
Next tries, finished the game in 2 hours and 30+ minutes using "Tinker".
WITHOUT using any cheat!

I have some suggestions:

*Add a special effects for Paladin Rank (Any level or level 30), which you can turn on and off.
*Add another hidden High Rank, maybe "Necromancer", the counterpart of Paladin.
*Allow players to level up more than 12, depending on difficulty. So that I can level up more on the highest difficulty. (Right now my hero is at max level (12), max Paladin Rank (30), max saveable gold (3500), already finished the game in all difficulties and I have nothing more to do.)
*Max Level should give HP Regen... It's funny how my max level hero + max level Paladin Rank can't regenerate at least 1 HP per sec after being attacked by some weaklings. I know there are HP regen items but my current items are irreplaceable hehe.
*Heat Loss/Starvation should drain HP instead of insta-kill.
*Tireness causes auto sleep (with death animation) instead of insta-kill.
*Make some kind of forging that makes non-socketed item socketable.
*Add some hidden non-quest monsters. You know like the so called "Myths" from the GTA Games. You have Yeti in your map as quest monster though. And 'dat Ancient Hydra! has awesome intro lolz.

Anyway... Great gameplay, great terrain, the best zombie map I've played so far. And one of the best slow-paced map I've ever played. (When I say slow-paced, I mean like the LOAP maps where it takes you many hours to play, simulating something like real life, etc...)

Great job sir Magic Lord.

EDIT:
Some more things I found:
*Add some info/tips in the Quest Dialog. A Great Wall of text would be good.
*Artificier can walk by giving him an item, then use him to take the item back.
*Campfires in the Bandit Camp and Taverns should prevent heat loss.
It may be considered as free campfire, but they are immovable unlike the Campfire/Tent items, a player can just sit there all night. Specially inside the Taverns, players can chat while drinking wine!
*Floating texts for NPC dialogs are too small. Can't read them.
*Plants can be killed by the AoE Damage of the Tinker's second skill.
*Quest should have "Failed" status if the Quest NPC dies.
(Right now even if the Quest NPC dies, the quest still eventually becomes "Completed")
*Set items should have bonus when you wear fully. (Like the Golden Set)
*The Tinker's Second or Fourth Skill's Missiles sometimes does not disappear.

EDIT:
*Are those purple zombies the one with the tentacle bursting out animation?
How 'bout make certain trigger conditions to make one of them release their ten'acle?
*Is it possible to make all quest-related-items disappear on pickup? Like the Wolf Pelt quest. 'Cause it's hard sometimes I need to drop some of my items just to pick the quest item. Or maybe that is a part of the challenge.
*The intro can be improved. It looks too random I think. And the villager's bodies are still there while they "transform" into zombies. (Unless they're not really transforming)
*The Local Bandit leader has a scary chance of bash. T'will be very hard to defeat for newbies. He's like the second hardest boss for me. But now I'm overpowered haha!
*Your map is nearly reaching 8 MB. And you can't play maps with 8 MB size in Multiplayer.
If your map gets into the 8 MB limit, would you still continue by making Singleplayer version? Or will it be the stop?

 

[brendonboy]

Played v.1.4 and 1.7, love your game a lot . I think it is one of the most addictive and greatest maps I ever played and thank you for making this. Keep up the good work. Anyway, I want to suggest could you add more quests the next update. Love to see more about Dean, possibly make a fight between the player and him. Look forward to your next update :3

 

[Awakened]

The guards at top right town are different from the others. Do the town serve any special purpose other than Paladins?

 

[MagicLord]

Hi karassu,

Thank you for giving great suggestions I will implement most of them and fix these small bugs. "Myths" sounds cool.

Hi brendonboy,

Adding more quest is planned to connect the Main story with each part of the Map. Dean's quest will be continued.

Hi Awakened,

The guards at top right town are different from the others. Do the town serve any special purpose other than Paladins?

City is not finished yet(There will be city siege and upgradable guards too).

 

[xerocheco]

hi, i am xerocheco

i have a question:

how works your items equipament system? how you did it?

how you do to: whenever i click yo equip an item, the game hide/remove the item and create the atachments and the respective buffs, and, create an ability in a spellbok to unequip the item, how you do that? pls tell me bc i am creating a map and i need that information.

thx

 

[Badah]

Great map

Thanks MagicLord, for this awesome map.


Bugs i found:

- I was lvl 2, game time around 19 minutes, the game crashed when i tried to upgrade the towsguard, i had to save the code and start a new game, load my save code, and the first thing i did was to upgrade the towsguard, this time it worked fine, without crash. I had this bug two times, first with a lvl 2 Warrior, then second time with a lvl 2 Tinker).

- I got the quest to kill the Lich on the frozen lake, but i decided to craft some itens and do another quests before doing the "Lich quest", i saved and loaded the game(not the code) once or twice, after about 30 minutes i decide to finish the lich quest, and every time the game crashed after the lich fully rises from the ground(the very end of the cinematic). I was lucky i had one save game just after i got the quest to kill the lich, this time i gonne straight to finish this quest and everthing worked fine.

- The bonus movement speed from boots are not working(i had the Warrior boots, not sure about the other classes boots), and the bonus movement speed from some capes are not working according to item description.

- Darksteel bar cannot be sold.


One Suggestion:

- Artificer should be able to buy legendary itens, price 50-100 gold.

 

[Kibougamine]

I'm playing with level 4 Archer, tried to upgrade the Guards, game crashes.
Playing with a level 6 Marauder, tried to upgrade the Guards, doing fine.
I guess i'm not made for Archers, i have the true heart of a Warrior/Knight/Guardian,then.
Just like in Skyrim, i prefer swords and shield.
Coincidence? I think bug.
ಠ_ಠ

 

[MagicLord]

Hi Badah,

I will try to do something with crashes but it is really hard. Movement bonuses will be fixed and Darksteel Bar selling too.

Hi Kibougamine,

You born to be a Warrior

I hope I can release next update in a few days with many bug fixes and new stuffs.

 

[leo leo vip]

can't load this map even tho setting the graphics to high. so sad...

 

[KazuyaRegret]

sorry for the nooby question... but where can i find the houndmaster? i've been searching east of the middle town and i still can't find it

 

[MagicLord]

Hi KazuyaRegret,

Go South from the gate of the 2nd village, go over the bridge(down) go straight on like 900 units then you will see a small dirt/stone road on the right, just follow it until it's end.
I hope it will help you to find The Houndmaster

 

[danielwalk]

Hey Is it a Bug or It's just normal that I found out those Marksman Doesn't have a buff on the Darksteel Equipment Upgrade?

EDIT: i found out some bugs when the butcher uses its hook on a building like townhall etc. the building moves to the butcher's place of comeback.
EDIT2: not only townhall but also Invulnerable NPC ohh shit... eg: Blacksmith man

 

[TinyTeaser]

BUG - Can't craft Jute
Raw Jute sells for 0 gold (tooltip says 2)

 

[epicfree]

Captain here,I found some very major Bug in this game that not only Ruin the Pace of the Game but also potentialy discourage player from playing this map again,the list are:
-Inventory Bug (You cannot un-equip nor Equip anything when playing certain class Tinker/Rogue in my case)
-Once there was a undead siege which took place at the same time,East and South Town go raided at the same time in just 15 minute into the game(which totally ruin low level player potential to fight back)
-Sometime the Portal to the bar won't work and you can't go back to the Overworld
-The church portal in East Town won't work
-The mission where you need to kill *DAREK* and retrieve his ring,his ring gone for some reason
-Town Guard attack Animal instead of Zombie that attacking them
-Sometime STATS gained from gear and accesories doesn't apply to the character
-Lastly,pls balance the fuck out of the zombie raid,i know that without it we don't have to worry about town and stuff and only care about ourself,but for most player who play solo or just 2 person,this is a big resposibility that they probably couldn't handle

 

[epicfree]

Suggestion for this Map:
-Make Mage and TInker the MOST Difficult Class in the Game,like Tinker and Invoker in DOTA 2,it need skill to master those class/heroes,but if you capable of doing so it could grant you not only free win (in case of DOTA 2) or someone who other should allow receiving the major quest price and upgrading the town (in case of this game) but also able to quickly dispatch the horde of zombie in case an allied is being pinned down by them

-The Town Guard really need to be Buffed,i mean seriously 4 Bandit could take down the entire City Guard (8) with steel upgrade,while only wearing leather armour,are you F*cking kidding me?

-The Number of Zombie in the night should increase to 3/4 instead of just 2,So That player realise that they need to actually get the Fuck inside town or in some sort of hidden place instead of wondering around acting like a badass

-EXP might need a little boost on gaining it,especially when you are still in low lvl

-Add some sort of system that allow you to sleep inside the Tent (i freaking hate how i got surrounded by a bunch of zombie just because i want to regain heat near a tent)

-Town Hall can be made into enterable building

-Pls add some sort of defense mechanic for the Villager so they may run into safety instead of just plead to death by walking few step away from the Zombie

 

[danielwalk]

Do this game needs teamwork? it says RPG, and Survival.
RPG, Care about yourself.
Survival , Care only yourself.

 

[epicfree]

Do this game needs teamwork? it says RPG, and Survival.
RPG, Care about yourself.
Survival , Care only yourself.

Depend on your playstyle,but i think it suit more on RPG cause the survival part really isn't necesearly if you menag eto reach lvl 4 or even better 8,also the main objective of this game is to defeat the final boss and optionally make sure the village is safe,so yeah it require some teamwork but Solo playing is still possible (For example a Knight/Tinker/Ranger class could easily Solo game with right gear and well prepared)

 

[danielwalk]

Why all of the New Players ALWAYS PICK YES IF THE QEUSTION SAYS" you have load?"
then they pick yes. <-------------------------THIIISSSSSSS SUCCCCKKSS! NEED TO BAN EM

EDIT:Bug Found. Acid Gun Advanced blacksmith tooltip says damage is 240 But When crafted it says 180.
when equipped does the right 180 damage addition and the armor negation of 12.

 

[MagicLord]

Hi guys,

I will fix major bugs tomorrow, and rework the load selection buttons.
I will also rebalance the zombie waves, it is too random now.

Durak quest bug - Don't now what bugged it works for me, maybe the ring bag too small I will make that larger

Thanks for your replies!

 

[epicfree]

Recently found another bug while playin as Alchemist,when i was doing mission to kill the grand master of necromacy the zombie suddenly attack the south town & The butcher littereally Hook a Building A Fuckinh invicible town hall and ssome sort of clothier into the black smith.

(which by the way kill the invicible blacksmith guy and me while were in the middle of a clash) I was like Wtf i though it was the a.l that getting smarter but it turn out to be another major bug.

"I've been waiting for this!" - Akihiko Sanada, Persona 3

 

[cleavinghammer]

Bugs:

Gave two Raw Jutes to the crafting station, but it won't craft them (crafting leather on the other building works fine).
Ranger: Casting First Aid on another target heals you, not the target.
I tried switching weapons by clicking on the new one, but it doesn't work.
How do you chop down trees? Clicking the axe doesn't do anything, and you can't attack the trees either. Same for mining.
The Broodmother belongs to Zombies instead of Animals.
Tamed Dire Wolf doesn't eat anything, the meat just drops to the ground (it worked with the tamed boar).
Zombies attack villages you haven't been to yet.
Paladin rank doesn't work, I've killed more than sixty times since getting it with no increase in stats (though I was at max level when I got it).

I would suggest making quest items clickable, so you can ping the location it needs to be taken to.
Heat loss should be prevented by clothing, as well as being indoors and next to doodad fires (I was inside a tavern next to the campfire and was still losing heat).
Make the Town Hall different, it looks just like the other buildings.

 

[MagicLord]

Map updated to 1.8.1

Hi cleavinghammer,

Weapon switching is not supperted by my inventory system but I may add it sounds good. In order to chop trees you need to equip an axe then open your inventory and use its skill, for mining you need to equip a pickaxe then force attack the vein("A" default button). I may forget to add Tamed Dire Wolf to pet feeding system, I will do it in the next update. If zombies attack a village you haven't been there before it's ok, it's intended.
Unfortunately I found Paladin rank systems bug after I uploaded 1.8.1 it's happens when you kill more then 1 enemy at the same time.
I will make quest items clickable it will help newbies.
Thanks for your comment

Hi epicfree,

Thanks for your replies and suggestions I will implement from them.

Hi danielwalk,

I reworked new game / load game selection now you need to enter "-new" to start a new hero I hope you won't rage in the future anymore
Marksman haven't got upgrades yet.

Hi TinyTeaser,

Thanks for reporting bugs.

Hi Kibougamine,

Good to hear that
What does that means? "Akihiko Sanada, Persona 3"

 

[Mech_Warrior]

Hey MagicLord,

I'm not sure if I'm just stupid or what... but I can't select a class at the start of the game. The cinematic plays, then it puts dialog options for Difficulty and Life Setting, and after that... nothing. It says to select a class to start the game, but I can't even figure out what I'm supposed to do. My Basic Joe has no movement, and everything in his range is just a shop...? He also has no abilities or items or anything with which to select a class.

If you could let me know what's going on, I'd be grateful. Thanks,

Mech

Edit: Just saw your post about typing -new. This is really not intuitive. You should at least add this VERY crucial command to the -help/-command text.

 

[MagicLord]

Hi Mech_Warrior,

This text is highlighted with blue and appears after clicking the dialoges. I will add an ability to Basic Joe which tell the player how to load a hero or start a new one.

 

[cleavinghammer]

So basically you're stuck throughout the game with the weapon you start with? I don't know, the Tinker's upgrades say you need to unequip his rifle to use the upgrade.

Beat the main quest in single player, but the game didn't end.

 

[MagicLord]

Hi cleavinghammer,

I meaned weapon swapping not switching sorry. No you aren't stuck with your starting weapon press Esc to pop up a list then select a slot which you want to unequip. Game does not end with beating the Main Boss.

 

[cautron]

i found bug with some hero such as wizard, everytime unequip anh equip weapon its reset cooldown skill
its look like bandit's skill lv 2 doesn't increase attack speed

 

[epicfree]

Found another Minor/Major Bug:
-In the Quest Where you had to kill the Hydra,sometime if you done correctly/terribly wrong to early,the loot might drop into the ocean or stuck near it unobtainable
-The Crystal or Mithril? Mine the drowned miner seem's to spawn Endlessly,which make camping mining Difficult without company,or unless you are a Knight lvl 7-min with Best armour or Highly skilled Tinker lvl 6-min
-Also the Silk/jute that was dropped from the Drowned miner was said to sell for 2 Gold each,but when i sold it even if it's from the First Drowned miner i get Nothing 0 Gold,while other item sells normaly
-In the Final Mission there is a bug where even when the Final boss has Finished draining your health,you can still lose your health and he refill himself (kinda like infinite draining)
-In the Final cutscene of the Main Quest if you kill the Final boss on the Same intersection as where the Priest will give his final speech,he would blew up and Kill the Priest and the Player that standing there,even if the priest was supposed to be Invulnirable
-The Zombie Horde Number seem's to be to random,some early wave might have been stronger that later one,which by the way the Butcher really are the Bane of this game (Hooking every single thing Building,Civilian,Items,Object,Heroes,even through Gates and Walls)
-A bug on Knight Class where when you send out some sort of cry which increase stats,you get stuck in that position for 1 second
-Annoying thing on Gems mine,is that whenever you hit the rock the chance you get an actuall gem is very slim,while the chance to get rock is over 9000,although it still nice addition that we had to be patient to get the expensive gem,but seriously being surround by over 900 Rocks is not fun and can cause a Fatal Error if not stopped.

 

[Art of Marmut]

[MagicLord]

Hey guys,

Thanks for your suggestions and bug reports. Sorry for late answer I was busy recently.

Hi cautron,

Cooldown reset is a w3 mechanics and I can't do much againts this.(maybe a timer which would remove your skill while it's on cooldown), Bandits passiv works fine I tested it.

Hi epicfree,

Thanks for your suggestions and bug reports.

Hi danielwalk,

I will fix this load bug, thanks for reporting it.

 

[danielwalk]

I wonder where do you guys host this map on :/
I host it on Ent.
