Inflicted Random Arena 2.3.3

[funAlways]

Add some kind of blocker in the beach arena (some player run to corner and got teleported to middle because of "you cant leave the arena"), i recommend tree (and also maybe some doodads because the arena seems too empty)
and IMO the shallow water shouldnt slow but give some chance of miss
make units dont auto attack the spider egg (especially annoying if you got cannon tower near spider egg)
Cannon tower can attack while repairing
Pit Lord can suicide with its own meteor rain
Invis unit can pass pit lord trap
also few death message suggestion:
Pudge: hooked
unit with thunder: zapped

 

[Inflicted]

ta! many thanks for the feedback, will get working at that right away.

Add some kind of blocker in the beach arena (some player run to corner and got teleported to middle because of "you cant leave the arena"), i recommend tree (and also maybe some doodads because the arena seems too empty)

Done, trees added. Thanks

and IMO the shallow water shouldnt slow but give some chance of miss

Changed, not entirely sure how to add dodge chance without making unneccessary lag or complex systems. So instead, I've removed the movement slow and added a 40% attack speed slow. In effect that will kindof have a similar end result.

make units dont auto attack the spider egg (especially annoying if you got cannon tower near spider egg)

Many players have complained about this, I will shorten the default autoattack range. And for the next version spawns in that arena are more controlled and you should not spawn next to an egg.

Cannon tower can attack while repairing

Fixed, now can be cancelled easilier; only attacks when not repairing and functions properly. Looking for more ideas for the Cannon Tower

Pit Lord can suicide with its own meteor rain

No longer hurts himself, only hurts enemies

Invis unit can pass pit lord trap

Invisible units generally walk through units, not entirely sure this can be avoided

also few death message suggestion:
Pudge: hooked
unit with thunder: zapped

Added, if you have any more ideas. Don't hesitate to mention.



Many thanks to everyone who gave ideas and suggestions, I will add you guys into some sort of display at the end of the game.

Need ideas for Keeper of the Grove hero, creating some sort of tree creation blast but need ideas on if it should damage/heal and what the second ability should be. Considering another tree circle forming around him or something to that effect

Fixed bugs with scoreboard
Some bug fixes and improvements to AI, especially the bugs where the AI couldn't handle new heros

Beach Arena now contains "kindof beach-like" trees.
Beach Arena now slows attack speed by 40% and does no longer slow movement speed.

Huge new content and bug fix patch, with only a minor increase in size of 20kb!
Please give feedback on the new version when able, thanks to those who have currently given suggestions and brought bugs to my attention.

A small way to thank you all for your help, is that I have included your user names in the final display at the end of the game. Many thanks

My friend ask for "Make the arena is randomized too (not cycled) but balanced"
Incase you dont understand:
Lets say We have 5 arenas, the 5 arenas are randomed
lets say arena 5 is first after randoming
and then arena 3 is chosen
and then arena 2
and then got arena 5 again, this is re-randomed because not all arenas have been played
after re random, this got 4
and since 1 is the only one that is not chosen, any other number is re randomed until 1 is selected

 

[Tanasren]

i've put it on makemehost to try it soon

Unit suggestions :

1. The Magician
Damage : 3-5
Attack speed : 1.75s
HP : 10
Skill : Mind Read

Mind Read : Copies the target's skills. If there are other copied abilities when this skill is cast, the abilities are deleted. 15 sec. cd.

2. Nature Mutant
Damage : 2-4
Attack speed : 0.75s
HP : 15
Skills : Tree Tragedy, Venomous

Tree Tragedy : Plants a tree on target ground. If an enemy hero walks near the tree, The tree will break and spawn a Tree Mutant (same stats w/o Tree Tragedy, has Venomous). Planted trees have 3 sec. before becoming active. If Nature Mutant is killed, spawned Tree Mutants will also die. 9 sec. cd.

Venomous : Attacks slow target by 15% for 3 sec and deals 1 damage per sec.

Nice ideas, I am most probably going to use your second suggestion with the Keeper of the Grove model.

Will let you guys know how the progress of the next version is as soon as I have accomplished some decent progress.

 

[Inflicted]

Is the Rubick model file used in dota uploaded here on the site?

I'm considering remaking the Medivh hero, and allowing him to cast the spell steal ability while in Human Form but still gain the passives while in Crow.

Otherwise I will make a completely different hero using this model:
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/scourgemage-149997/?prev=t=2&r=20&d=list&page=17

Any ideas?

Also, should I add hero glow onto the units that do not have it? Or would this be abit unnecessary?


EDIT:
Comment moved to bottom.

Pretty unnecessary imo.

Some more bugs
Silencer get slowed on ice(IMO there should be damage but no slow)

Increase some spell cooldown that can perma lock someone to death (sorceress hex, SK impale, etc)

[Inflicted]

Thanks funAlways for your many suggestions, I have just finished a version.
Mainly focusing on the skills hurting allies and some small adjustments.

The next version shall be focused on fixing old units, creating or changing abilities for existing units and adding more units to the game.

At the moment my thoughts are that the Bandit Lord and Bear need to be changed or removed.

Many thanks for all the suggestions and I shall try implement them in the next version. What model do you suggest used for the Gambler?

[funAlways]

As for model, im not good with it nor find anything that fit with the theme of gambling
projectile model problably coin
For bear, perhaps make it to use the war3 Devour instead? ( Devour for 5s or something,if success, bear will get additionnal Max HP and fully healed)
Bandit lord, i dont know which unit is it, problably i rarely get it
Also, satyr spell (the one that shoot lightning orb thingy) still continue even when the satyr is stunned/killed last time i tried it

 

[Doomguy80]

I have been watching this for a while. Though hast made thy proud, with such a neat arena!

 

[funAlways]

Moar report
i was playing with 2 people, im red and he is blue, selected FFA, kills, time, and when the game start, it bugs
For me, blue is an ally and therefore i cant hit him, meanwhile for him, i am enemy and i can be hit without able to fight back (tested 2 time, 90 and 10 kills, same result)
Raider can ensnare his ally
Raider cant hit his ally, but the trigger for lifesteal can, and therefore ally still got damaged (this also allow raider to spam Attack and got free lifesteal to enemy without even hitting the enemy)

 

[AbnerA]

Suggestion
Bandit Lord
Damage Change To 5-7
Skills : Charge
Charge : Charges towards the target (ground not unit) Dealing 10 + 50% enemy missing HP
Range : 700
Cooldown : 5
Charge rate : 1050 ms

And i found a bug in the new version that player 1 is allied to player 2 maybe it's due to the testing skills to an allied unit after. Maybe you haven't changed it

Yeah, I'll keep looking for an appropriate model. The bear's current ability doesn't fit, contains many animation bugs. I originally had an idea of a sleep ability in which he can go to sleep and restore a % of his hp, gaining additional regeneration the longer he sleeps for. Devour is a decent idea, will the unit be freed if the bear is interupted? What do you think is an appropriate max hp increase? Something like 4 or 5?
I'll look at the Satyr, the ability is cast by a dummy unit that is why it is not affected by stuns. I will fix this.

I have been watching this for a while. Though hast made thy proud, with such a neat arena!

Thank you very much, glad to hear you are enjoying playing it.

Raider can ensnare his ally
Raider cant hit his ally, but the trigger for lifesteal can, and therefore ally still got damaged (this also allow raider to spam Attack and got free lifesteal to enemy without even hitting the enemy)

Okay, it's on the attack command and not on actual attack. I can fix this, thank you.

Skills : Charge
Charge : Charges towards the target (ground not unit) Dealing 10 + 50% enemy missing HP
Range : 700
Cooldown : 5

Perhaps, I was also considering something regarding somehow using the Bandit/Theives as kindof a swarm or something. But still gathering ideas on this one. Thanks

Thanks, yes this was another silly mistake in which I was testing which skills work on allies and which don't. I will fix this and release a 2.3.2 version asap

 

[Inflicted]

Released 2.3.2 as a quick bug fix for that embarressing testing mistake.

This version additionally contains fixes for:
Vengeful Spirit's Magic Missle hits allies
Medivh's Firebolt hits allies
Seagul's castable Seaugul attack hits allies
Necromancer's skills (Cripple and Purge) can be cast on allies
Raider's Ensnare can be cast on allies

Sadly another mistake in 2.3.2, fixed in 2.3.3. Additionally contain these changes:

Chimaera Roost contains new units, therefore old units are being adjusted:
Quilbeast
build time reduced to 3 from 5
attack damage reduced to 1-2 from 2-3
hp reduced to 6 from 8

Wolf
build time reduced to 5 from 6
attack reduced to 2-4 from 4-6
hp reduced to 12 from 16
crit increased to 35% (from 25%) to deal 3x

Tauren Cheiftain
build time reduced to 12 from 14
attack reduced to 6-8 from 12-14
hp reduced to 18 from 30


Added 'Tiny Builder' who repairs the structure at no cost (has only 2 hp)
Added 'Kodo Beast' who contains many auras. Such as: Devotion (2), Endurance (10% a/s and m/s), Vampiric (20% - melee), Thorns (10%) - all auras have 600 range

The other units have been reduced accordingly to allow the Kodo Beast to not make them overly powerful.
Taurent Cheiftain, Tiny Builder and Kodo Beast will only be available after the Chimaera Roost has survived 20 seconds
I liked adding the Kodo Beast, as the aura's are applied on nearby allies too. Adding a potential for more lethal combinations in Team Deathmatch and more strategic play.
Thanks to funAlways for these ideas.

 

[Tanasren]

do not hesitate to delay the time where u upload the new changes (besides the bugs fixes) so u get new visibility on hive page

Also, i played 2.2 (the one on mmhost) and it was funnier than before, the arenas weren't killing u, new units etc...

The Butcher was a bit OP but he could be killed, btw at first kill i almost got 60 hp o_0

Could u make the black sheep attack to be avoidable ? (maybe not a good idea)


A super idea i just had : add 2 sec invulnerability and 2 sec silence on spells and attack everytime u get a new hero, 2 sec invul for towers and no attack too
Because i got many new units i couldn't read their abilities and got killed instantly by someone appearing with high dmg -_-'

Can u upgrade the dmg of the priestess spear or/and its speed ? (a little both)
Or reduce further more its cooldown

The banshee is awesome, it swaps control of units thats much better than just taking the other unit.

Really, this funny map with all those funny spells needs a BATTLE ROYALE mode !!
Shorts rounds everyone has a random unit with one life (maybe make the units pop not near eachother) so you must use its full abilities to steal kills or just survive. After 2 min or more some areas becomes plagued and then u need to go to the center and fight.

And in the end i saw my name, lol ty but you could make something funny to credit those you want (and yourself), just name one unit after the people who supported you ! We could even suggest a unit and this unit gets our name (just for fun in public games ^^) btw i didn't start to think of a unit yet, i'm waiting for the mode i claim for days

 

[Inflicted]

I will look into this bug.

Possibly splash? lol, that was just a random idea by a player in the earlier phases of the game. His account name was "sheep5" so I named it after him, if there is a related name that kindof fits then I can do so. Until a few versions back the Rabbits were named "LunaVista's Bunny Rabbit", but I changed this back as it was too long. If there is a fitting situation, I can definately do this.

A super idea i just had : add 2 sec invulnerability and 2 sec silence on spells and attack everytime u get a new hero, 2 sec invul for towers and no attack too

Yes, this is possible.

Will mess around with the numbers abit. The spear damage scales on the distance, heavily. So if you hit a shot from almost maximum range you can kill them instantly or stun them for 5 seconds, where as a shot from point blanc only deals 3 damage and ministuns for 0.5 seconds. I can adjust these figures or add another ability, I had ideas for possibly somehow implementing some sort of Starfall effect or attacking stunned units will deal bonus damage, like the Sorceress. Perhaps if the cooldown is reduced, will try change values in upcoming versions appropriately.

The banshee is awesome, it swaps control of units thats much better than just taking the other unit.

Yeah, I think I remade this skill about 4 times, due to the massive amount of bugs it was causing. But I found that instead of killing the unit, just switching them has fixed most of the problems. And still gives the other player a chance, and even an opportunity to switch back. The only issues I've seen so far are that some units which arent the hero unit can be possessed, causing double units and not respawning. However I am working on fixing this. And if you are playing with AI, the names of the bots are not changed when control is changed. Eg if a bot possessed another unit/player, it is still called Banshee Bot (X) until it dies.

Really, this funny map with all those funny spells needs a BATTLE ROYALE mode !!
Shorts rounds everyone has a random unit with one life (maybe make the units pop not near eachother) so you must use its full abilities to steal kills or just survive. After 2 min or more some areas becomes plagued and then u need to go to the center and fight.

Thanks, I am planning on adding more modes in the future.


EDIT:

Another comment on the naming of heros/units after Players, if you have an idea and have provided some form of feedback or support. When I came over this idea, I immediately created the seagul unit, based on my original local account name, however that unit still feels abit rushed and needs to be fixed, but yes it can be done. Drop me a PM or comment below with your idea, please keep it appropriate.

ah ok about the priestess spear, didn't know that (didn't read)
Ah yeah about that, maybe you could add something like 1 death = -1 point and 1 kill = 2 points, it could be another mode.
Lol i'm saying that but I ALWAYS had the most deaths ingame (but almost always first too)
Last time i Had 80 deaths and one player had 35 xD i dunno how i do

i'll try to find a new unit idea,

About the idea of the bandit lord i gave you, maybe you can use the skill to the knight model and for the bandit lord i have another idea

Knight
HP 30
Attack 5-7
Attack speed 0.75
SKills : Charge, Pierce
Charge : Change damage into 5 + 50% missing hp. Cooldown 5 sec. Charge rate change to 700
Pierce(Active) : For the next 2 seconds the knight will attack the enemy while charging, dealing 1.5x his attack damage the charge will also be twice as fast. Cooldown 13 Seconds

Bandit Lord
HP 20
Attack 5-6
Attack speed : 1.5
Skill : Summon Bandit, Bandit Lord
Summon Bandit : Summons a Bandit for 10 seconds Cooldown 14 sec The bandit will become permanent if it kills an enemy
Bandit Lord : For each bandit he has in command, he gets 3 attack damage, 15 attack speed and 40 movement speed

Bandit
HP : 15
Attack 1-3
Attack speed 1

Yeah, it's not a bad idea. Or a mode where each player has X amount of lives. Kindof like a tournament mode.

Thanks AbnerA and others for the ideas.

if you could upload your map on makemehost, that could be cool, because when i wanna do it i must wait 3-5 days for the map to be added
while if it's you, then it's faster (thats what it says if ur a mapmaker u can do this by contacting them http://makemehost.com/suggest-map.php)


BUGS :


In 2.2 still, some units got stuck in the forest on north east.

The tower often appears in a corner where nobody is, so i say -debug cause it's boring to wait lol

When the arena changes, the seagul attacks units automatically while the victim can't do anything, same if your unit just resurect at the same time the arena change, you can kill the others frozen units.

The butcher just poped up for me and instantly gained HP so he had 60 hp instantly (dunno why)
The grovekeeper/druid could have treants summoned even after his death.

Suggestions



About another new mode, the Target Mode :
Player only win points if he kills his target, +1 for each kill and the first to 30 wins for example
Will be fun to see people focusing on one target and trying to avoid the others.
And i bet it's really easy to add ^^


About new units, i thought of some :

1) the Two Lovers

The wife has 15 hp, 3dmg, 10 mana and low regen. She is fast/normal. Can heal 5Hp for 1 mana, with no CD. Can rez his husband if she's near him (maybe use a spell near him)
The husbad : 20hp, 4dmg, no regen. Normal speed. Can jump toward enemy and deal 4dmg (little aoe) 3-5 sec CD. If his wife dies, he becomes enraged and gains +4 dmg and he is very fast, (maybe he becomes computer controled ?)

2) Mirage

18 Hp but pretty fast regen and fast movement speed.
Each time this unit is hit, it makes an illusion of itself.
Can also go invis for 1 sec every 8 sec (to confuse enemy in illusions)

3) Tentacle

20 Hp with building armor. Melee attack or range <200 deals 3dmg but very fast No regen
Can replicate in a line to up to 5 tentacles lasting 5 sec. When doing this the casting unit disappears. Between the 5 tentacles, one is randomly chosen to be the new main tentacle which can replicate itself into 5 tentacles again.
Eachtime the player does this the new tentacles have -1hp (but can't go under 1 hp so players need to kill it).
The first tentacle is not a timed summoned unit, you can read the spell before using it, then you need to find the new tentacle each time to replicate again.


Ok i got 2 others ideas for units but they are not "finished" so if u like those tell me and i'll explain the others.

Changes for upcoming version:

Glaive's Glaive Shot can no longer be cast on allies
Ballista's "Fire!" now arc's much higher

I intend to re-continue this project, and if anyone could test it and give me some feedback that would be much appreciated.

Although I would LOVE to test your map, I am currently very busy. Sorry!
That aside, I do hope you will implement my suggestion on the Keeper of the Grove hero I submitted last year (on page 4) and it would be nice if you add some music to the map, especially on winning (winning feels really bland).
