So hello all you visitors, the only reason you would come here would be to see what this is about. If you can see THIS sentence and are reading it, go away and come back later, the Forum is under construction.............

What is it? - This is a map called Island Survival.....

What is it about? - It's About a ship that crashes into some rocks and you wake up on a beach, but only 4 workers are alive, the rest of the crew vanished......
You are one of the four workers and you have to team up with your Allies the other 3 workers to get off the island....You will need to find food so you don't starve but at night.....at night hordes of Murlocs and dead members of your lost crew try and kill you and your allies.....You will have to build weapons as well as buildings to defend against the deadly assaults of these creatures... While at the same time Building a ship/raft to escape the island!
Who made/is making this? - Master_Elite is the only current worker on this map, however the map will contain various models/icons and skins made by users around the hive, these people will be given credits in the map and in the forums credit box at the bottom of the page. If you would like to help you may ask me through a pm or a visitor message.

What makes this defense different than any other? - Lots of things! Such As ALL of these special systems and units, upgrades , spells ecta- Below!


The hunger System Is in my opinion an interesting idea, you have the Hunger bar (mana bar) that gradually declines over time and when it hits zero! you will first have a negative buff that slows you by 50% and your attack speed by 25% then if you still are at 0 you will start losing health... you eat food to add points to your hunger, EXAMPLE: You eat a raw fish, then you gain 50 Fullness (mana) and you regain hit points as well! But lets say it's a Cooked Fish! then you gain more fullness more hit points and a buff! See cooking system for more....Certain Abilities cost some hunger, for instance sprint takes up 25 hunger and has a negative buff after that reduces speed by 10%, you cannot use these if you are too hungry, so food is an important aspect of this map for the following reasons
-You will starve without it
--Heals you
---Gives Buffs
----You can't use certain abilities without it
-----Give the player something to do
------Adds realism and challenge
For more information on food, visit the Foods Hidden tab...



This is to make the game more realistic, as you are one worker, i don't want you being able to carry around infinite supplies and lumber (the two currencies of the game) and must build storages/piles of them, these when built will raise your maximum holding capacity of the resources, if you gather resources while your at the limit you will not gain them. so you build structures around the island to raise that limit, however when destroyed your limit will go back down as if you never had that structure and your resource gap will be LOST! EXAMPLE: Limit is 100, you have 3 storages so your current limit is 250, then a murloc kills 1, and you had 240 supplies, then your limit would be dropped to lets say 150 then you would loose 90 supplies....BUT if you had a limit of 100 and 2 storages and had 110 supplies and a murloc killed one then your limit would be lowered to 100 or so and you would loose 0 Recourses...For questions pm me or leave a visitor message..
