This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
| Description |
| A 4v4 altered melee Modern Warfare map. You can play it with friends or AIs. (The AI only works in the Player 5 slot.) You can build a Barracks to train a variety of troops, you can build a vehicle factory to build some tanks and vehicles, and you can build a Helipad to build aircraft. There are also some defenses and a Tech Center you can build to improve your base. The main town-hall type building is the Base of Operations. It can upgrade into a Futuristic Base of Operations to improve all of your buildings and enable certain researches. |
| Units |
| Robot Marine: An upgraded version of the regular Marine, does not take food. The Upgrade available when you have the Futuristic Base of Operations. M2 Bradley IFV: A weak and light scout vehicle. Can transport 2 units. Dreadnought H: A large and powerful mech equipped with a machine gun, but is also capable of melee attacking enemies should they get too close for comfort. Bazooka Trooper: Your anti-tank soldier. Highly effective versus tanks, mechs, and buildings. Castle Bot: By far, the strongest and largest unit in the game. Is built from the Tech Center after you have a Futuristic Base of Operations. Engineer: The basic worker unit. Is actually armed with a machine gun, but don't expect him to win any battles for you. and more... |

a tank with blink ~~
the sniper team looks buggy
the medieval and futuristic styles do not match,like the "castle" (project odin),on a futuristic game,theres no sense
try to find better icons,marines with villager icon, that marine comando with rifleman icon, barracks with arcane sanctum icon, looks crap ~~

Kl3sk Reviews : Modern War
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version : 2.8
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Map Type : Altered Melee * (theoretically...)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description : (4/5)
A fairly decent Description over what seems to be a promising map! It gives the would-be player a good idea of what he'll be downloading , providing them with a fair amount of information to pretty much know what to do in-game from the get-go.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In-Game Review
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Terrain
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is just...unacceptable. I've tried using any other word, but that's the first thing that pops to mind. There's no excuse to this type of terrain, other than no-good lazy-ass / lousy terraining. All I can say is : those screen-shots lied to me! IT'S A TRAP! (0/5)
Models
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Structures I've never seen before, interesting skins / models for certain normal W3 units (troops) and nice vehicle model(s) that include armored vehicles, tanks and so forth. Meh, not exactly to my tastes, but at least the helicopter animation doesn't "get stuck" in mid-air like in most other maps of this type that I happened to play. (3/5)
Icons
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bollocks! I mean...awesome icons ya got there ma...nah, I can't do this, can't lie to the man : WHAT THE F*** ?! Not only are there no custom icons whatsoever, but this map uses the same icon for either skills, upgrades, attack buffs... lolwut ? (0/5)
Skills
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's an Altered Melee, so there's not much to say, right ? Well, out of the very few abilities available to use via upgrades and whatnot, this map has this thing called an "Ion Cannon" provided by a "Tech Center". I find it visually amazing and it has an awesome sound effect once launched...however : Visually compelling as it may be, it is virtually useless on the battlefield, literally dealing no damage or has any other special effect and leaving the player with a bitter "why did I even try this map anyway" taste in his mouth. Oh but you'll get used to disappointment after a few minutes in-game, no threat! (0/5)
Misc
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The "Tech Center" I mentioned earlier is supposed to give the building (that has its own mana pool) ONE mana per 500 gold, once you exchange that currency for energy. You would later use the mana to activate the "Ion Cannon". This, in reality, does not happen. You end up wasting 500 gold every single time and there's no way to get your money back. Glitchy-buggy are we ? Other little things I've noticed, but mentioned before is the lack of custom icons and cluster-f*cking the same icon for 2697 million other units and upgrades, which I did not appreciate. (0/5)
Game-Play
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I swear, I'm keeping in all the nasty words I'd normally say if not for trying to keep the review look slightly mature and unbiased, but what...the f*ck...did I just play ? A mash-up of futuristic and random W3 style units in a crappy environment (or better said NO environment) with the most buggy skill I've see so far. It's like you rushed this map so bad, you forgot it was eventually going to be PLAYED! There's just no describing it. It's like getting naked , grabbing a green sock and arriving at the Annual Down Syndrome Convention trying to convince little kids you're Kermit the Frog. YOU JUST DON'T DO THAT! (0/5)
Long story short :
Do I recommend altered-melee fans to play this ? : No (only if they're masochists)
Do I recommend non-altered-melee fans to play this : No (Dear God no)
Will I play this map again : No (I'll cry tears of fire if I'll have to play it again in this life-span)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final verdict : Rejected! I'm not even considering a rating.
Word of advice to the author : Don't just screw around with the W3 Editor. It's nice you've imported some wonderful models and interesting spells, but try to make them work next time. As for the visual aspect of it : hire a terrainer. This is obviously out of your league.
Foot-note* : WHY GOD, WHY ?!
