Prince Panda's Map Reviews
I will review almost any map, with the exception of very large single-player campaigns. I am able to host on battle.net (realm Lordaeron) and test content online so I will accept multiplayer maps. Maps will be graded on the following criteria:
Single-player:
Gameplay: ?/5
Is the game fun to play? Is it playable at all? Playability, ease of controls, a clear objective, replay value etc. are factors that will determine the score.
Length: ?/5
The map should neither be too long, nor too short. If it's a campaign, a constant time of play are preferably divided evenly among each of the maps.
Visual Appeal: ?/5
All cosmetic factors go under this category. This includes the terrain quality, and how well custom content is implemented into the game.
Neatness: ?/5
This focuses on grammatical errors, interface, bugs/glitches, and the smoothness of the map.
OPTIONAL - Storyline or Background: ?/5
I will often judge campaigns on their storyline. Does everything make sense? Does it draw interest? Is it new and innovative?
Multiplayer:
Gameplay: ?/5
Size: ?/5
Most people aren't patient enough to wait for a 5MB map to download. If it's going to be a fairly large map, it better be worth-it. Low file sizes are favored above most maps, but maybe you can change my mind.
Playability: ?/5
How does your map handle the different amount of players? To get a good score, gameplay should be constant whether there be a full house of players, or just a couple.
Visual Appeal: ?/5
Neatness: ?/5
