Creative, but you should but more tile variation. With different terrain, it would be harder for both sides.

 

[Kildare]

How so? What difference would a change in tiles make to the difficulty of the gameplay?


Besides, this map was not meant to be complicated. I'm trying to keep it as simple as it could be without compromising creativity and fun.

 

[RoughneckLeader]

Ah, simple games are fun (well, certain ones); linerider.com is a perfect example!

 

[pyropk95]

lineirder is so freaking hard....how do ppl add backrounds and i seen ppl add like 3 mins into it...no life or there really good anyways . cool map

 

[EmawWyvern]

Ive played this on Bnet before its kinda hard, but its still fun 5/5

NOTE to any Moderator: This map has been in the Pending List for a VERY long time. Can someone tell me why?

 

[yekaman]

Moderators are too busy, check ur notifications...

 

[Kildare]

It's been too long for that excuse. Are the mods actually randomly approving pending list maps? Coz some of my maps which i've uploaded LATER than this map have already been approved.

 

[Septimus]

For your information, we had more than 30+ pages of pending map to browse through and had our own life to deal with.

We cannot just sit infront of the computer 24 hours a day just to review all those map.

And those map must be review carefully to ensure it doesn't had any error on it, some map could took us more than hour to be review.

In addition, we usually give priority towards those who request their map to be review if they post their request at Resources Moderation forum and some of the mod review map according to the map category.

Don't forget, we usually check those map for..

1) Bug - To ensure the game is smooth and free of bug
2) Terrain - See how good the terrain had been develop, would unit get stuck or not at certain intersection and etc etc...
3) Gameplay - How fun it is
4) Missing Icon - Check the map for any missing icon (Green Icon)
5) Genuine Map - Ensure the map is not stolen/hack/cheat version
6) Function - Ensure all those game function work well such as hotkey

Well, this 6 stuff I listed is just a small list of it. We actually had to check more than that.

 

[Kildare]

Lol dun misunderstand me, i'm not criticising u guys. I was just wondering why it's taking so long after all. Thought there might be a bug with the pending list or something. Thanks for the review, but i would like to address some of the points you mentioned:

[√] - Butcher earthquake skill is partically useless, I suggest you to replace it with another skill which could provide a much better support.

Ermm, you do realize that once a person gets hit by an earthquake, his movement speed is reduced by 90%? If you combo it with Cripple or some other slow skill, it's practically a stun. A reason why you think it is useless could be because the Butcher has to sacrifice on his part so that his teammates can take the kill, but please keep in mind that this is a team game, not a solo effort.

Wow, i didn't know there were so many hotkey errors. Thanks for testing them one by one. As for the terrain, i hope you did take note of my earlier comment that i wanted to keep the map simple? That's the reason why i did not improve on the terrain. Thanks for the review though.

 

[Kildare]

UPDATE: A new version has been updated to fix the above mentioned hotkey errors.

 

[Kildare]

Version update for 1.24 compatibility.
