Navy Cross TD V1.40C

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
Sorry for double posting this map, I felt the need to as the moderators were not reviewing my older post and I hope this will get their attention

Navy Cross TD started off as a little project for myself, Lebsoljah, and soon expanded to be a big, fully-functional TD map with the help of ShadowBaneWrath. There are currently no known bugs or errors, everything is fully functional, the map has been tweaked for balancing of creep hp and tower damage. We're no longer in BETA-phase and this map will soon be updated to it's full potential. We plan on updating and adding over 25 new towers within the next future updates.


The Storyline

Captain Red-beard was sailing across the big blue sea searching for an island that rumor said was filled with treasures. He had been searching for almost an entire decade for this island, and now he had finally found it, with the help of his crew, of course. Captain Red-beard was so eager to find this treasure that he forgot the main rule of a true pirate, "always check to make sure the island is inhabited, and if there is any living thing on it, KILL IT!" Captain Red-beard ordered his crew to acre the ship and search for the treasure, and after a long day of searching, they found nothing. Tired and hungry, the captain and crew decided to go back to the ship for a feast and sleep so that they can continue the search the next morning. Once they arrive at the shore, their ship was nowhere to be found. Suddenly, they hear a loud riot running towards them, OH NO! The secret villagers knew they were after their hidden treasure, and tried to kill them! But Captain Red-beard doesn't give up that easily... CHARGE YOU SCURVY SEA DOGS !

A basic introduction to the world of "Navy Cross TD"

The TD so far has 30 waves and 3 boss waves, each wave increases units HP by 1.3, bosses have their health increased by the last units hp x10. There is one boss wave after every 10th wave. Navy Cross TD features over 25 towers, including many custom model ones which include upgradable researches. There are 4 Navy teams in total, each of which consists of 2 players on one lot of land. Every Navy team has 60 lives, once they lose their lives, they will be removed from the game and their waves will stop spawning. If a player on a Navy team leaves for some reason, all their units will be given to their corresponding team mate. There is a lumbering feature which is very helpful, you may train workers and have them collect lumber, then trade the lumber in for gold, or gold in for lumber at the Farm.

Once testing is completed, the towers will be released and will be buildable with your "next builder form" which is an already implemented feature into the map.

- Changed the Frost Tower's model
- Fixed bug where quests no longer showed up
- All cheats have been removed
- Many other minor bug fixes

*Please note: I will not be editing the terrain on this map. I've worked extremely hard, and changed the terrain 3-4 times now and I'm not interested in remaking the ENTIRE map and spending hours of my time fixing it over a little brick distortion. I hope you can understand this and still accept this map. Thank you.

This last update has taken a lot of hard work and effort, it's been very time consuming. I truly hope this will be sufficient enough to remove most or all bugs until the very next V0.70 update. I would like to say thank you for all those who have been supporting my work and like and/or rate this map. I hope everyone enjoys playing this TD as much as I enjoy working on it. ~Lebsoljah

- Slaves only carry 3 lumber now instead of the original 5, this helps reduce the amount of people farming while others build
- Added 4 Navy teams instead of only 1, this will be later used to implement the 2VS2, 4VS4 and FFA game versions, and helps keep track of which players team with each other.
- Arrow Towers have been reworked and should now work perfectly fine, and be much more than worth the money that you spend on them, especially when massed
- Players no longer need to depend on massing single towers anymore, it's much better to use a range of towers instead of massing now, because all towers have been balanced out

- Sell Tower feature

Bug fixes:
- Fixed a bug where the 'Sell Tower' ability was not returning gold
- Fixed the Gold to Lumber/Lumber to Gold units at the Farm
- Fixed a model defect which would turn some game shades blue for a certain amount of time
- Fixed problem where players would randomly freeze in-game due to a laser projectile that was added
- Fixed the text that says "The game will end in 20 seconds" at game start

This TD map is a close to finished product. The most work we expect to do more on it is adding a range of 20-70 more waves, and adding 2VS2 and 4VS4 modes, as well as adding a few new custom towers and/or a morphing builder which builds additional towers. You should also expect to see an additional 3 or more 'legendary' towers.

We really hope you enjoy this TD as much as we've enjoyed making it. We've put a lot of hard work and dedication into making this map, and we'd really appreciate your feedback.

You shouldn't double post, you know that. If you wanted moderators to review your maps, you should contact them via pm or vm.

I did contact them, lol, that's the sad part. They told me they'd get around to it within a day or 2, been like 2 weeks now.

Well this will be rejected because:

Multiupload >> Rules Violation
No Type >> Rules Violation
No Category >> Rules Violation

3x Rules Violation = No chance of approval

Fixed the type and category :)

I'm not removing anything. You rated my map 1/5 star based on a multi-upload, which in this case has nothing to do with the actual map itself, so I thought I'd return the favor.

The hive rules clearly say you must not multiupload. Which I had a reason to rate 1/5 and you didn't have any reason, you just posted a bunch of nonsense that's not even true.

Just FYI, rules don't have anything to do with a map OVERALL, so remember that before placing a retarded rating. You only downloaded the map so you could rate it poorly, and you never even played it I bet. That gives me every right to do it to you. So, suck it up, princess.

I'm a map reviewer, check my other reviews, I can freely do that, as rules come 1st, if you break them, the map will be rejected. Also now you're even flamming...

Also, no, it doesn't give you any rights, because you posted stuff that's not true.

I won't fight with you, because it makes no sense.

Completely wrong.
You NEVER have the right to abuse the rating system!
-2 rep (and ratings removed).

Barathrum: you're not in the map reviewers group anymore (since a while ago), and if a map breaks rules such as multi-uploading, it does NOT deserve a 1/5 (rating = quality, not rules).

And yes, this map is a multi-upload, but I won't reject it.
-1 rep for doing so though (makes it a total of -3).

The game was fun! but game after game, it becomes boring, mind if you can add more features in your game? I mean a short mini-game would be great, or each wave had its own unique ability that can disable the player's defenses, the penguin-lumbering worker was a great idea, but still, it would be better if you can add more.

Terrain doesn't matter when it comes to TD's and its stuff, but since the Warcraft III Universe is changing through all the years, I suggest you could add a little sweet tooth in your terrain skills, you know some cool environmental displays would be great, or some fogs or doodads would be nice.

From my observations, I see some bad managing right now, how come the enemy waves are few and so slow? I suggest you could increase it a little bit, and for the towers, its turning mechanism somehow doesn't return back to its original stand animation after it attacks, it doesn't look good.

Bug/s

None for now.
