So, what map is the first one you are planning to make?

[Statharas]

Dunno for you, but the DarkSector Studios (Toukichiro is the leader, and i am one of the data managers), are going to make a lot of maps, like Zerglings, and stuff like that.

 

[overload119]

I'm going to wait a bit to see what kind of games are being played and stuff. During this time I'll be working on my melee-skills, and maybe doing some demos in the editor.

After a while, I'll start working on a dungeon-crawler.

 

[Robbepop]

hiho,

im going to make a zergling map.
already wrote down the complete concept. xD
but thats just to get into the editor. =)

then i will work on Guilds of Hyppos RPG v2.0.^^
(nobody knows? xD)

[Deolrin]

I don't know, but remaking Avatar(James Cameron's Avatar) is something I plan to do. Too bad it'll be a long time until we can get good-looking Na'vi models.

 

[supertoinkz]

Warcraft III Conversion :>

Seriously, Left 4 Dead SC would be nice. Instead of mindless zombies, you get a variety of Zergs.

 

[Vengeancekael]

I'll have 3 projects (if possible), a campaign, a multiplayer mini-game or rpg and a cinematic series(if you can create cinematics).

 

[Statharas]

Well, my Zerglings map will be like footies. Zerglings will spawn at first, then upgrading to one of the 3 tiers(and levels)
Zerg--Terran--Protoss
Hydra.-Marine-Zealot
Roach-Reaper-Stalker
Ultrali.-Viking-Immortal

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

I'll continue my own missions story started in war3 and frozen due to the news in 2007 about SC2, and if I have time, I may release something. It would be either mission RPG or mission Melee depending on the situations, or both.

 

[Darkgamma]

Campaings

 

[JakeCake]

Doing a lot of RPG systems, maybe even ORPG, and when I feel that I'm familiar enough with the Editor, I'm going to redo them all in one single map hopefully at that time, a lot of awesome units are done to fit a somewhat Warcraft-like map...

Also, the first couple of maps I'm going to do, is probably melee maps, just to learn the different doodas and such. Learn to terrain fast.

 

[Raizen]

Im looking into making some old school stacking tower def maps

 

[Eldrazor]

First of all ofcourse some random doodles, then maybe Life of a Zergling... No that's not a LoaP clone... Sth with zerg, most definitely

 

[CloudMax]

Im gonna make Legend of Selendis. A single player campaign with the gameplay of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
I have a thread about it on UDmod (the site is currently down..)

 

[Deathcom3s]

I'll probably do a bunch of tech demos and testing and stuff for a few months before i begin any serious project.

 

[Mulgrim]

SC2: Dota

yes, i did do it to make you rage

 

[RoughneckLeader]

A fun and balanced Warriors of Gundra* map series, with two multiplayer maps and one eventual campaign.

*Warriors of Gundra features two factions (three in Starcraft 2's versions) with unique units on all sides and each has its own play style. The SC2 version includes a mercenary faction that has little to deal with base building at all.

 

[overload119]

Builders vs Fighters should be popular...

 

[Joe-black-5]

an AOS map, the over hated kind.

 

[pangahas]

my wc3 map in development Gods and Empires..

 

[IronForge]

In the spirit of my now dying clan 13sA, I shall port battleships to starcraft and make it a fully fledged RPG.

 

[flames07]

Rpg... Working on some high quality models that I will use and finish them when I know their texture format.

 

[Deolrin]

The texture format is .dds.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

Yes I figured it out on 19th Feb. Gimp has a plugin to open DDS. M3 is the model, we only dont know what M3H is - too small to be a model/texture. Maybe fx. Model sizes vary from 150KB to 750KB (Maradeur) to 1.03 MB (Thor) haven't checked all.

 

[Zypher]

A footmen frenzy map just to get acquainted with the map making process for SC2. Then something more serious, possibly a zombie map or a map that toys around with FPS.

 

[warman45]

a thought occurs.... in SC2 we could make a ww2 game that doesn't suck. that was completely impossibly in WC3, but now.... *starts playing battlefield 1942 theme.*

 

[RoughneckLeader]

Heh, and I have the perfect self-made alternate history way of doing it .

 

[Undead_ted]

I'm going to make a game, with a similar theme of 'Island Defense' called Planet Defenders. Or Planet Defense.

 

[Wazzz]

I'm most probably going to wait until there are more models available, but if I am able to get a fast-learning modeller, I will definitely do a good LoTR RTS mod. What with all the new technology, I would be able to make Treants walk over cliffs (among Spiders and such), have some awesome effects for the Wizards, and ultimately create a decent atmosphere for the game. But that's only a possibility.

Oh, the LOTR RTS would also be much nicer what with all the new terraining technology. I could have huge cliff cities with buildings in the abyss and so on, so forth. Or I could even not do LOTR and create my own lore. But these are all just possibilities all the same.

You do know that the current developers of footman frenzy also is going to swap to sc2 and continue with it there?
So you should probably change the layout of the map, and tweak it a bit, otherwise it will end up with everyone playing the "real" one, insted of yours ;-)

I probably won't even release it, like I said, it's just to get acquainted with the editor.

Why not? Just give the creators of the "real" map some competition They have no copyrights or so on it!

The problem with this is that even if a map is better then another, they always stick with the original, that is how we humans think.
Take Counter Strike for example, many people stick with it becouse that is what they first played, even if there is other shooting games that is better.

I do not think people would change from DotA to another AoS map only becouse it is better, they would go with DotA becouse they have always played it.

Especially because of that reason (Not the Counter Strike example, CS is simply a perfect, simple FPS game(game-play wise) that is the main reason I think). Anyway, because StarCraft II is new people gets the chance to make a popular map, it's incredible hard at the moment to get people on Warcraft III b.net to play new maps by themself. So this is our oportunity to create maps which will get well known in the future, because people are not USED to anything in starcraft II yet! It's one of the best things about starcraft II in my opinion.

God I cant wait for it to come out..

 

[Catch_ya]

I'm going to make a 3rd or 1st person shooter. With a alien feel like your on another planet than The Earth and you are going to kill stuff like zerglings that comes from everywhere.

 

[Twisting]

I plan on starting with a custom 1st/3rd person campain with a full story and exploration, full with custom models.

 

[Deathcom3s]

Way to take things in stride... -.-

 

[CyberDuelX16]

I'd want to make an Altered Melee and a RPG first, Then I'll Experiment with the others.

 

[CloudMax]

I plan on starting with a custom 1st/3rd person campain with a full story and exploration, full with custom models.

That is the dumbest shit i have ever heard?
Is that seriously the first thing you plan to do?
First of all, there is no custom models.. second of all, why would you need custom models that looks like shit?

 

[Wazzz]

Yeah Twisting, are you unable to comprehend that it will take time before custom models actually come out? And why do you need all custom, anyway? Have you no skill of your own to create something with the resources available?

 

[Tythoid]

I think ill start with a simple tower wars where you can play as protoss or terran and stop hordes of zerg.

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

Titans of Archia: The Unholy Tyrant

Type: ORPG
Time line: Darkages
Camera: 3rd Person/1st person
Game play: PvE(Group/solo/Dungeons/Raids), PvP(Group/solo/Battle grounds)

 

[phatlewt]

A map with Xel'Naga as a race, if there are enough Xel'Naga units of course. Would probably be hell to balance as they all probably have uber stats. Also going to be adding in and balancing the SC1 units they left out. It would be nice to have lurkers back, infested marines, and medics. Also want to add and balance the world-cracker ability that the mothership used to have.

Also hopefully remaking WC3 in the editor if enough hi-def WC3 models are included (if 500 people arn't doing it aswell).

With all the possibilities of the editor it won't be suprising if actual gaming companies begin to develope with it aiming for premium, or if SC2 mods begin to attract fans of other genres.
