Alright overall i will give this map a 9/10

#1-Continue to change descriptions such as the idle worker button make it say something like "Your shopper is waiting for your command" or try changing the UI a little bit have you ever thought of trying a new interface?
#2-Add more special effects to the abilities such as the defenders stomp ability (forgot the name) add more visualizations.
#3-I enjoy how you added a lot more customization to the archer and the new accessory item but you still can continue to make the items more customizable like you were talking about a while back.
#4-The dialogue button that does nothing should be changed into a random button to randomly choose between each set of units/classes.
#5-You need to add the "-clear" command which purpose is to clear the screen of text or atleast an option to turn the tips on/off which they should be off as default.
#6-The game is now kind of lagging on my computer so you may have a few leaks that need to be fixed or too many triggers activating at 1 time.
#7-Hiberna did not cure poison when i used it on myself, even when i continued to click it.
#8-You should make it so that after X number of citizens die then the back building loses X amount of health or maybe for each citizen killed.

~Good Luck

- Thank you CHA_Owner (again!) for your support and numerous suggestions!!!

#1 Custom User Interface has passed through my mind, but after I thought of it I have decided to leave it until every aspect that affects gameplay of the map is finished.

#2 Need Specific Ideas on this one!!! +++

#3 Planning on...! since that's one of the basic Ideas of my map.

#4 That's actually an "Anti-Enter" button, since some (including me) have experienced choosing the first option after surprise level/class-change and at the same time pressing "Enter" to Chat.

#5 Tips Off command will exist and will be displayed on Hints too!thumbs_up:

#6 Hmm.. don't think so, but if you could specify the "When" that lag occurs or maximizes I could be able to fix it.

#7 That's a "thing" I cannot get, the trigger is correct but still doesn't work. I'll probably make a 1.2b version to fix this and a few other graphic issues (like Hints being shown as Warnings with red colour).

#8 The number of Citizens killed will be something like a score in the future versions, as the main idea of placing Citizens is only to slow down the attackers.

Thanks for reading my review so quickly and also for the visualizations try adding some lightning effect to the defenders stomp ability or something more noticable i havn't tested the other heros yet but i eventually will

EDIT*

Version 1.2b:

#1 -You need to add a -clear command so people can clear the screen of text messages when they want to.
#2 -Try changing the critters to be non-selectable but you might not be able to do this if you are not using JNGP.
#3 -Remove the minimap vision of the citys heros so all that nastly gray glow will be removed.
#4 -Keep improving descriptions such as Lumber/Gold to say how you actually obtain them and since your not using lumber you could make it count the number of dead citizens.
#5 -Start thinking about minigames like half way through the waves it would be like a little break and just make funny little challenges out of it.
#6 -After the game has been won and everyone is waiting that extra minute make like a full house FFA everyone vs. everyone just utter chaos to end the game on an epic note ^.^

Best Description ever seen! This way all should make their descriptions (and if the map isnt finish a % of map complete)

 

[Aikanaro]

Heeey! We demand moar levels!

Map's awesome, it gives you that WTF feeling a lot ^^
But I was expecting a third class change

By the way, we had a Tank and a Maiden, and since around level 30 we had nothing to do really, just standing there, killing creeps, maiden even had a nap
I mean, that doesn't seem to be ok, too easy.

#1 Will add on the next version.
#2#3#4 Not my priority since these changes do not affect gameplay, but very good ideas!
#5#6 Already thought and rejected. Minigames 'cause the game is already intense and FFA 'cause usually warriors will win and healers will always die.

Mayby you could provide me the replay? It's kinda hard to believe... Thanks btw!

 

[CHA_Owner]

1 more thing......

UPDATE YOUR SIGNATURE lmao

 

[Renaissance]

I agree that this game should be harder...more levels please it is so easy...a team of 5 people beat it so easily. We practically lazed around at the end. If you do not believe I can show you a replay. I was just starting to get interested in your map it was so fun-filled after tha boss that sucked mana. We killed him and we were all like "..." we WANT MORE!!!

 

[VergilThazaar]

I'm planning on adding more, but right now I'm working on a map for the Solo Mapping Competition #3. Even though, I wasn't planning to add more waves, instead I wanted to turn the Defense to Offense and make you go through the enemy Base, killing creeps, bosses, getting items & more. Also difficulty choice is on my "ToDo" list.

What do you think would be better? More waves or turn it into Offense?

 

[CHA_Owner]

I think first of all work on key features like difficulty settings and maybe something i have been thinking about which is not in any other hero defenses have seperate choices like to make the waves faster/slower which can be done by changing their movespeed quite easily but if you have to choose from 1 of the choices you listed i would go with the enemy base raid since i have never seen it correctly done since the spawns never run back they just keep going forward.

[Bernkastel]

The description looks pretty smexy.. Gotta download now and test tomorrow ^^

 

[Goulashia]

Tested this with 4 other people.

Difficulty varied too much, it was easy most of the time. Zombie stage (too much regen) and evaders were easy, but took far too much time.

Some sort of warning for the mobs that head straight to the statue? We figured it out right of way though.

Remove auto cast heal, make them do it manually. The healer can just sit there and afk.

Last boss is stupid. Removing the power for any caster class to do anything, why?

 

[VergilThazaar]

Looking forward to hear some opinions!

 

[copsychus]

I think u should write some description . when how much lv it will change class 2 and 3

and how. i was confusing to find it . if i haven't read the post in this section. I may not find how to change classes.


cooldown is very very long , make boring , becuz it can't revive by using money too.

and this is really bad. after around 400 seconds and i got ready to life.


but hero wasn't born. it just have only graveyard . no something happen

and i got kinda boring .

Reason : it have to wait for creep coming. and shoot it. that's all. ... no event no something like side quest or something else that can

sparkle player's heart. [In addition : it's flat. ]

 

[SirMelf]

the waves after the zombie wave are equally crappy. it took us up to 30 seconds for one enemy -.- we had a team of executioner, tank, maiden. and btw, the executioner is not as good as the royal ranger, because it fires so damn slow. and what do you need evasion for, if your an archer? else it was great and a lot of fun, but please do something about the waves after the zombies.

edit: we played for 1:23 hours

- Working on it!

- This map is made for 5-6 players. It can be beated with 3-4 but it'll take more time and it'll be less fun. You had the best possible team for killing the last boss.

 

[Acutesharpness]

Nex Hero Defense is a role playing hero defense game where each player becomes a class of character (like in maple story) to defend waves of creeps/bosses. Items are located at only specific location and each class got to purchase their item at the specific shop. Noobs will not be forgiven as buying wrong item will have it dropped on the floor.

I think you should refund or make the item useless but able to sell when someone buys a wrong weapon, because I think it is more friendly that way. I think nex hero defense is challenging, the levels are very cool, there is the frost wyrm that slows followed by spiders that do poison.. very nice. Innovative, enjoyed the game. I prefer more jobs but I hope to see more!

 

[reason 3]

When is this map gonna get updated?

- The item can be picked up and sold by the Shopper, but your idea is more noob-friendly, will make it happen.
- Thanks for the review.

When is this map gonna get updated?

- When my computer is cleaned from any viruses.

 

[CHA_Owner]

I am finally back and have some free time since i have completed my first semester college classes and work hours finally gone down some.

vergil i would love to see this map make a comeback and hit the top 20 maps (i think it was at one time)

I would be willing to beta test again and post any/all suggestions for the map or if you trust me i can even take a look at it and help implement new stuff.

i just dont want to see a project like this die out since it is so much fun

just pm me or reply here and ill get back with you

[Killer_MoD]

this map really is dying atm huh?
i wished it would be updated a bit more cuz only till lvl 40 is a bit boring but the map itself is fun <.<
and there have to be more balancement in the levels after the zombies
i hope you, Vergilthazaar, will continue to work on this since this is a really good map and makes a lot of fun
maybe after the second boss (wave 40) make it to an offense map and enable fighting the enemy base.. after clearing the base add some more spawns and then some sort of ultimate boss with good dmg and armor and about 75% magic dmg reduce so the players have some work and mages cant onehit him

these are some ideas you can follow so you can continue the map and make the world more fun

 

[VergilThazaar]

Perhaps, perhaps not! Depends on CHA_Owner now!

 

[HayateRein]

arent you continuing it anymore??

 

[VergilThazaar]

- I'm really giving it a hard thought... a comeback after all this time inactive is not a simple plan. I don't even play Warcraft III anymore!!! (and I'm not the only one, unfortunately most of the Warcraft III Players left for Starcraft, WoW, LoL & other games)

- The best solution I can think of is providing the feedback, ideas & suggestions to another Map-Maker that is actually using Warcraft III.

 

[HayateRein]

i love this map... i think it would be sad if it will die
i also found some bugs that can probably be fixed..
also if someone else is going to continue it, then it wouldnt be the same anymore

 

[xXxMKDxXx]

bump! is here anyth allive? update? its imba map! ressurect it from the dead!!!
