Map In Progress : Arrival of Death !

[Saif]

•Arrival of Death•

Story

In a land called Apparatus, their were many wild beasts and creatures which you would not see in the other lands. Their was this one creature who was feared by all of the other creatures in that land. That creature was given the name "Death" as it is still a mystery why it has that name. The Humans went to Apparatus to collect resources. Without any knowledge of the land, they went deep inside the forest and never came back. The Humans resources were depleting and was wondering why their Resource Team has not returned. The Forces and Armies of the Human have weakened. The General of the Skyfarring Army "Revinaste" ordered to ready their ships for a travel to Apparatus. He asked "Nask Longlife" his skilled Guardian to travel all around the world to find skilled warriors to help him in his travel towards "Apparatus". Unfortunately, at the time of deployment, the Undead seized the Skyfarring Army. Revinaste had no choice but to leave his land and rebuild a new one in Apparatus.

When he Arrived in Apparatus. It was just a land full of forests. He wandered around for a while but he did not know that he was followed by the Army of the Undead called the "Lifetaker Army" which was leaded by Ashesoul. Ashesoul was a member of the "Skyfarring Clan" a long time ago. Revinaste, alone, defended himself but still unable to succeed. It was Victory for Ashesoul but suddenly a group of wild beasts emerged from the forest and helped Revinaste. Ashesoul was not planning that to happen and making their army retreat. Revinaste wondered why the beasts of Apparatus helped him. After a long time, Nask has returned and brought several warriors to fight for Revinaste. The creatures of Apparatus seemed to agreed to help Revinaste but still a large amount of wild beasts did not agree. Nask spoke with Revinaste that he knew the commander of the Lifetaker Army. He informed Revinaste that Ashesoul was the Former General of the Skyfarring Clan. Nask wanted to defeat his Former General so he went to the forest to convince the other group of wild beasts to help them but he failed and ended up dying. Revinaste had no friend left and now what is left for him is only a choice to take revenge for his clan and kill the Army of their Former General Ashesoul for betraying the Human Race.

I am Currently Working alone and I know that a GREAT Map cannot be made alone so if you want to help me in any way just tell me and I would place you in a job where you are comfortable with.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I Would want you to test the map as it is not yet complete but I would need some suggestions
The parts of the map which is empty would be changed into neutrals as we progress through the map
and hero balancing would also be a part of this thread where you can suggest to make the skill more / less powerful
for now i only have 2 players play this map but im sure it would be better if it would be a 5v5 map
the Minimap Preview and the Loading Screen will be changed later on
there are no definite ending yet
The things I put above are not yet implemented in this map as it is not yet done, Im only trying to show you the "Heroes" and some of the items on the current version im showing you.

Currently
Terraining - ( 10% )
Triggering - ( 20% )
Mapping - ( 15% )

what I would do on the next update is :

add more neutrals
add more heroes
add more events
add more player slots
improve terraining
update credits column
+ your suggestion

if you want to contribute or have a hero in mind you want to share
please post here xD

- Bump -

thanks to those who downloaded the map but can you give a little feedback
and sorry if the map doesnt have a definite ending yet. Maybe somewhere on
the next updates ill put it thanks

The idea is to convince us doing so via an impressive and reasonable presentation.

 

[Saif]

Ok, so if you could give a suggestion maybe ?? or things you want to change in the map

thanks for reply xD

 

[WaterKnight]

I have not downloaded the map yet and won't do so until you have shown some effort into explaining your project. That is my suggestion.

For reference see http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/1935034-post2.html or http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/1930127-post12.html. Why is the project called Arrival of Death? What does it consist of? What are your aims? Do not tell me it just another 08/15 AoS that has absolutely zero base ground.

well in the game, there are 2 teams, If time passes by there would be events , like boss arriving at the creep intervals and "Death" will arrive in the place as a "BOSS" so that the 2 teams will work together to bring "Death" down. Death will only arrive when a long time has passed xD

Since the Human & the Undead crossed each others path, they have been having a war unit now. They have hired many guardians to protect what they say "The General" or the one who gives them orders. Everyone knows that if their is no tactician or a leader in battle its own members would fall. The Human's and the undead have been hiring the most deadliest and famous warriors all around every continent in the world. Every one of those warriors has a story in their life and the reason why they want to join battles. As time passes, Many of the warriors of opposing sides has died. The Neutral races use this as an advantage to kill and overcome the Human and the Undead. Death himself will arrive when he smells victory lying upon them. The undead and the human will then be forced to join force and kill Death to retrieve the honor and pride they have maintained of the name of their Clan. But, this battle for hunger of Power . . . Will it ever END ?

This is a joke. You do not explain the factions at all, just that they are named Human and Undead. You have no reason for a war, no showplace, no understanding of The General or why people want to protect them. You have said that they hired mercenaries and the battle lasts for some time now with many victims, okay. Suddenly, random neutral races show up that likewise have no features nor a motivation to fight. Who is Death (and how can he be opposed to Undead)? In the end, Human and Undead join forces to overcome a greater enemy. Did this just turn into a pve defense?

2 teams will duel and each team will be leaded by a "GENERAL" wherein he will stay at your base, once the general dies It is game over for that team.

How does this duel look like? What are the means to fulfill the goal (killing the enemy general)? So I guess it is an AoS after all.

Events will come as time passes and whoever kills the boss in every event will earn a special item and a huge amount of gold.

Random event encounters. What are these events? Why do they happen? How do they fit into the AoS/remaining gameplay? So I guess the teams won't join forces or how does this make sense to determine a winner in the end?

The game consists of Multiple Events, Unique Heroes, Wave Interval Changes, and Multiple hours of Fun Gameplay.

Events not declared, heroes not declared, I guess unique means that you won't use the standard wc3 heroes, which is indeed standard when creating an AoS, nice that wave interval changes but waves are not declared yet. I do not buy that the map would grant me that amount of fun with the current information given and why would this be multiple hours? One time playing takes this long or do you need this long to explore the map's content or what?

Please take some time to create a good presentation, a mere hour is absurd. Review my threads linked in signature to get a hint.

ok thank you for the help and suggestions I will try to make as you say

and I will change the story later because apparently the time here is 5:15 AM and we still have classes later

I thank you too again for the links you gave +rep and I will do anything to make this a good map >

please continue the tips xD

really needs lots of editing

Add ranged creeps… Creeps get too big and blocks the way… big disadvantage for melee heroes….. increase appearance of ogres or better yet a different raid every 7 minutes…. Low xp gain and money gain from ogre boss considering it levels up…. Somewhat low xp gain from other ogres… money gain is just good….. xp gain from neutrals seems faulty….. finished em all in few spells but got almost no xp…. Hero was just level 10….


Quite imbalanced neutral creeps…. Antagonist side has a better chance of leveling up since most neutral creeps are just healing each other instead of attacking hero….

Full health deny? Tried killing my creeps since they’re blocking my way….
Way too much space wasted if it’s just for 1 on 1…… for 5 on 5 will it always be a clash in the middle?

Why is the speed boost removed when you upgrade from windrunner to succubus?

haha sir thanks again I will try to change what you say
and sorry but this is only to test the heroes but thanks as I could change it in advance

+rep xD
