Need Help With Finding My Goal In Life

Status
Not open for further replies.
"Goal in Life", this is how dedicated I am to map editing.
My Goal: make map that will be fun.
Fun means Addictive play that will never go dull.
Unfortunatly, after posting my first approved map, Third Ninja World War
I wanted to create new map regarding the original game "Freedom Force"
and its contineuall "vs the third rich"
I have posted that I am about to create this kinda map but no one ever
sent message to me other than "I don't know this game"
I think I lack passionate, since I find my new map lacking fun.

About Fun: fun factor is the official rating of games worldwide, if a game
has best quility and no fun it is rated 0+5+5+5+5 = 20/5 = 4.00
Fun Factor is important.
But I need help from other map editor artists
I respect all of you readers
and I belive there is allways more to learn, even the boss professional can.
Please enlighten me: anything you have to say, just shoot, I hear.
Hope to get inspired while reading :ogre_haosis:
 
youre GUI Master but you can't make map?
and your goal in life is make maps that will be old in a decade? how sad..
Smart person learns from each person.
Thanks for all advices, but the map original story is really not the point...
I lack ideals for making something that looks cool.
While I did Naruto, I watched the anime which had imba nice moves.
Here its even better: I can make stuff up since no one knows the game
Still, I lack ideals and ... "FIRE" in my way of thinking to create something good
 
Read one book from Wiliam Ditrih !
You will think diffrent !

I don't know if you were seryes or cinical, but I prefere watching movies rather than reading books, I used to read Danguens and Dragons Map maker official book which I bought 5 years ago to get inspired, you reminded me that the book still in my library :D thank for the advice.
lol one thing I will never forget about that book:
"make special transfer areas so that people will have something
special to remember about each floor, one floor has lava
while the other is twisted in circles that seems endless"
quated from the book (*sort of)

I was just honest :p .
You will get more inspiration from the stuff you read then from stuff you watch.
Because when you read you imagine it and create pics of it in your mind .
 
that is not a very good scenario for any map


Well, since it IS a future robot, I will give him a beam that hide enemies, making them "go time travel toward the future" and upon unhide they will be stunned and damaged from "the time stream", that robot will be able to take more damage than normal hero since he has "metalic armor", and has the ability to shot lazer / rocker, and his fists will have lightning effect as if he was punching with lightning surge from his robotic power surge, I still think of what else to give him, i wonder if I shoukd give him mirror image as "special clonning technoligy for cloning mechanical robots" or something like "blink into another place with technoligy unknown", at any rate, this robot need 3 more abilities and I have given him only 2

You could start with Lord of the Rings and the Sylmarilion (that how it's spell??). If you liked Warcraft, you've got to like those!
