Changes have been made, approved.

 

[Xarwin]

Kodo tag is still original and sometimes fun to play. Its good for beginners, but advanced players can easly beat this up . ~Approved.

 

[C4pt4in]

They should make AI Kodo-Tag. Like a melee based AI that builds their buildings and stuff or JASS scripted AIs. Love Kodo Tags and Tree Tags or some other Tags!

 

[Panik]

[supertoinkz]

OMG! bug

I was playing with some bots and few friends on Xtreme, Suddenly somewhere 5 mins me(red) and orange alive, came "ALL YOUR BASE BELONG TO US"
the game ended.... without a reason

Amg crap version

 

[Panik]

<Insert Title>

You could at least give me a better bug-report than "OMG! bug" and "crap version" just because you ran into a bug once...

I've never experienced such a bug and I also looked into the map and didn't find a problem with the triggers, too. These triggers are more or less the same since 2.0 and worked fine all the time.

Btw: map updated.
Find the changes out yourself (not many ^^).

 

[creyzi4zb12]

Played it!! Loved it!! Good game....main point is that it is very fun to play!!

 

[Hordeon]

I like play it in single-player

[Peteri1111]

EDIT: oh nvm... when i died (blue was still alive) game ended... damn i hate this

 

[Murcky]

Peteri1111 dont double post please...
And that bug you are talking about has not happened to me, and I have just tried the map 7 times in a row, nothing.

Anyways, thanks for uploading the map and all that. Love playing kodo tag but this ver. is a little to easy for me though.

Update

@Peteri1111:
Well, a screenshot isn't much of help here. I don't know what's causing that bug for you just by seeing the losing screen.

@Rest
Map updated (again^^)
- Tried to make it a bit harder
- Kodos get a bit faster on higher difficulties
- Explode-Ability of Mini-Kodos moved to normal. Gets stonger with increasing difficulty.
- Runners are now real heroes
- Quick Game sets Timelimit to 15min and allows you then to choose the difficulty again

 

[Kingdom]

There's the loose bug alright...

 

[hand of blood]

i dont know if it is only on hard but the kodos are faster than the heroes and the heroes cant run through the smalest gaps

 

[supertoinkz]

coz in hard, there spawn a speedy kodo and mini kodos

 

[Aesthetics]

WHOA, did you just protect the map?

The original creator clearly said to leave this map OPEN SOURCE. How dare you.

 

[Panik]

Well, I guess the original creator* was just annoyed to see some minor edited versions of his map, which only purpose seemed to show another name on the loading screen.

I guessed it's not a big deal to remove protection, so it is actually meant as a hint rather than a obstacle.

Besides: If anyone asks i have no probleme giving him an unprotected version, as long he has some good reasons for needing it.



*That's me

 

[Aesthetics]

Are you Jonas "For the Union" Harter?

bahahahahaha

Can you please be clear?
You say that you are the original creator, if that is the case - why didn't you say so from the beginning?

I have rejected the map until you can clarify this and write a better description (you must do so, those are the rules - which you have probably read ).

Glad to see that. The original author of the map deserves his wishes for his map, at least.

 

[Panik]

Yes.

I am the original creator of the map. Read the first post, or when it was uploaded first:

Uploaded: 20:32, 20th Mar 2007

I've updated the map a few times since then.

[...] why didn't you say so from the beginning?

If you refer to the footnote, that was just irony, beacuse as stated above this map is on this website since more than two years.

And the reason for the protection was, that I was annoyed when I saw a edited version of my map with only some extra triggers for chat-commands and a trigger that showed a message when a player with the name of the modifier was in the game, stating him as the original creator

But, yes I should write a better description. I never bothered much, because I thought everybody knows what Kodo Tag is.
I will do it as soon this problem is solved.

The original author of the map deserves his wishes for his map, at least.

Yes, exactly. I wish it to be protected now.

 

[Aesthetics]

Yes.

I am the original creator of the map.

I'll take your word for it. Can I have your auto-graph?

3/5 voted for Approval.

 

[Hamsamwich]

well i have to say, this is almost perfect, except for one small thing

THE MAP

i don't know if it has been said before, but this new actual terrain is horrid, first of all too small, no chaos, no massive ass mazes that SUDDENLY fall to piece because other jerks have blocked yours, or even wacky kodos that want a good munching

anyways, at first i thought the terrain was going to be cool, i was like "Oh cool there are four different CONNECTED areas, that will be cool" then i was "oh what are those gray lines, probably nothing but i will hold onto this nagging suspicion"


oh but this is all opinion and relative to the time i had played it for, for example if i had not played it for hours on the 2.0 version map i would have been fine with teh change

 

[supertoinkz]

well, u might want to add Boomer Kodo (it Kabooms when dying and attacking) or some super secret code on spawning Elemental kodos.

 

[Aesthetics]

I wonder if you've made the changes I've made on KT Revived. They're quite reasonably important.

EDIT: The hotkey for the "Meteor" spell doesn't work properly (E).

 

[Peteri1111]

New terrain

If you ask... the new terrain is fail... because divided to 4 different ones.. (not sure are all playable at same time)... old one was much better.

and the kodoscore system. waste of shit on fullhouse if you ask me...
and i let you think why...

 

[Panik]

@Aesthetics:
Hmm, the thing with the Runner seems to have gone lost during the conversion from WEU. Added it to 6.1.
But the Meteor hotkey seems to work.

@Hamsamwich & Peteri1111
The terrain change was made because tha game was too easy in my opinion. Because of that the maps are smaller and contain unbuildable terrain to prevent large scaling mazes. You can only build small mazes now, forcing you to run away more often.
The Kodoscore system was also meant to increase difficulty. But I also must admit it needs still some tweaks. At least I should disable 'wood'-trade.

If you don't like the changes just play one of the older versions or play Kodo Tag: Revived by Aesthetics. It still features the classic terrain.
http://lokmaps.blogspot.com/

On a second thought it would be a nice idea to add the classic terrain as a fifth option to choose from.

 

[Aesthetics]

I see you updated it. I'll try it sometime.

 

[Sheephunter]

Me and my friends always play this game when we lan
Its soooo fnking orgenal!
+reeep

 

[isus666]

finaly the old terrain is back...ty so much

 

[Aesthetics]

Oh jeez, the new versions are so buggy that I don't even want to play it.

 

[PhilBro]

Very nice job!

I really enjoyed it. What can I say, I love being chased by monstrous beasts. Somewhat hard, but that's a matter of skill and I think I might need some practise

Keep it up! I'd love to see more versions of this map in the future

 

[sukminedik]

bugs full of bugs
been getting random desyncs and the all your base belong to us lose bug

 

[Map Gnome]

there is this "secret runner" in the editor.
how do i play the goblin machinist?

 

[rapking7]

hey!
im the JJ Wu shuang, my map left 10 dead, can u Say something about tat?

I love ur map so much anyway

 

[TheodorAnawald]

I can't reach ForTheUnion nor Panik. Has anybody here a copy of the original unprotected map? I'd like to translate a bit.
If someone does have the map, please send me a message.

 

[Greenwhy]

Yea I would really like to know how the made the kodo AI. I haven't been able to replicate their kodo AI how they only break through buildings if the player makes a bunker.

 

[Hamsamwich]

When I was recreating the map in SC2 I achieved it by making them target buildings at the very lowest priority. I assume this is what they did in wc3 too.

 

[Robot-Smoke]

Good map

 

[raisen]

Thanks for sharing and of-course for making! btw those description is so simple
