we thought about finishing the first area (island) at first and release 2.0 beta.
its not much playable ground then, but due to new quests and 2 new bosses it will take a bit to perfectionize your hero

 

[Cryophoenix]

Cool!!!
But it looks flat :/

 

[GIMLI_2]

what do you mean with flat?

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

Are there any playable betas? ^_^

 

[Maldruzard]

Cool!!!
But it looks flat :/

The only bits that look flat are the cities/building areas... it's not often you see random hills in the middle of city roads! ;L

Looks promising, looking forward to seeing a beta or at least a preview of the gameplay

 

[galactcus]

man is that the reason of terrain be flat im the only terrainer of that map...
so i know the terrain need a lot of improvements... but i need more time to improve it cause every time i take the map i improve something at the terrain but i dont have so much time, and we need to do a lot of things not only terrain... but i agree need more effects more details more things and i will do that and i really like if someone give ideas and comments ^^

 

[GIMLI_2]

well we could make a beta test if its finished
ill pm you if we test the map, do you have garena or an account on bnet?

EDIT: i like the terrain !

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

xVASJAx in Garena and in B.Net Northrend

 

[Cryophoenix]

Hmmm....
It's okay...
Can't wait for a beta map ^^
Good Luck!

 

[GIMLI_2]

ty
im currently working on items, after that ill do skills, bosses and at least some systems and so on. if i finished we will beta test.

Edit This Terrain :
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...99d1346429249-tales-thanar-v-2-0-tropical.jpg ..

Edit :
* You Should Put More details like grass , rocks , etch.
* Remove The Pine Trees On The Beach Side , Instead Chang it To Palm Trees ).

 

[GIMLI_2]

i dont know anything about terraining^^, but there is grass, u just cant see it well in the pic

 

[galactcus]

yes i will put more details in this area i was finishing the first area ^^

 

[GIMLI_2]

for all who already played this map..
we will finish the island (first area) first and release the map
after that we will take out the other areas step by step
ofc the first area is not rly big but its rly much to do

 

[iChaos]

I played the map and the icons looks weird (Hero Icons) , Maybe change 'em?

 

[GIMLI_2]

well the new version will be much better
included new icons

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

Yes, weapon icons for heroes is a pure shit idea.

 

[galactcus]

we will take some ingames prints soon... we are finishing terrain, itens, mobs so we can take some ingame prints for your hunger of news haha ^^

 

[GIMLI_2]

what do u think about taking the WoW class icons?

 

[galactcus]

humm idk... but we already have icons for each race ^^

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

wow sucks... If you mean a shitty mmorpg, not World of Warplanes.

 

[galactcus]

wow icons is a good idea if we got a party system like gaias have...
so you can fast cast heals to the tanker for example...

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

Well if you mean icons of other heroes in left-top corner - it's a good idea

 

[GIMLI_2]

i dont know if its possible in GUI, well ill try it out
but at first i have to finish more important things ^^

 

[galactcus]

yes hehe and inscrease the number of players that can play to 5!
so you can have 1 tanker 1 healler 1 suport 1 damage 1 misc ^^

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

Well anyway classical is 4-6 players (I mean DnD and etc had 4-6 players for decades and blah blah blah), but here 4 players limitation is used to make game hard without making player amount difficulty modification and to keep it hard without giant stat creeps.
I am also not sure if you know this, but in version 1 clerics damage reduction could heal him and sometimes even got struck on the first boss (shitload of spiders). Add minimal damage = 1 not to make him invulnerable for any mob even with high int.

 

[GIMLI_2]

i know that, u already told me that. ty
there will be much ability remakes of classes and there will be lots of bugs. (i think so)
im not sure when we can test the beta version cause of school :/, but i think it wont take that long

EDIT: im not a fan of increasing player slots to 5, lets see

 

[GIMLI_2]

ok finished the quickbar icons, works well

 

[galactcus]

and mb next week i will redo the orc's fortress... and the tropical forest ^^

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

Hey, what the problem eith back-up saving? What if I am able to slay high-level creeps and to obtain good equipment, but I have to get 2-3 levels to put it on and I have to go? (That was example) You'd better make level limit for items in bag, like hero lvl + 5 and bag saving.

 

[GIMLI_2]

well ill think about it

 

[Marsal]

Pretty sweet visual upgrade from the last version I saw. Keep it up!

 

[galactcus]

Pretty sweet visual upgrade from the last version I saw. Keep it up!

thank you and i will improve it more and more.... every time i work on the map i have more ideas for the terrains hehe ;]
so you can expect more things from this prints too

 

[GIMLI_2]

i did some hero skills in the last few days, but i dont have that much time cause of school, so it could take a bit until beta testing
Just a small overview:
Skills done: 4/27

 

[GIMLI_2]

because i got more time the last few days, i started working on a pet system. its not that easy to do and will take some time, but a hunter without a pet is not a hunter

 

[galactcus]

good and im waiting to do more some part of the terrain ^^

 

[aki15]

Nice work!
Please continue this project, it look very promising !

 

[GIMLI_2]

I thought about the new stat system:

Strength:
+3 Life
+1% Crit Power
+0.2% Block Chance
+0.2% Block Value

Agility:
+1% Attackspeed
+0.15% Evasion
+0.2% Crit Chance
+0.5% Crit Power

Intelligence:
+2 Mana
+1 Spellpower
+0.2% Spell-Resistance
+0.1% Crit Chance


I have to balance that a bit, but what do you think?

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Interesting system. Way better than blizzard's!

 

[galactcus]

good enough but i still think one more status for balance cause like that... mage with full str and int or full agi and int not very cool that could have a 4° stats that gives health and mana and evasion called "endurance" and str could inscrease critical strike damage, agility inscreases move speed and int can have a magic block chance ^^
but that idea is cool too

 

[GIMLI_2]

the list just shows what attribute gives which bonus, i think you meant sth like a selectable stat for each level. well i wanna have sth like that, but i need someone who does a save load system for me (it would be enough if you just copy a finished into the map). i tried it with several systems, but i dont rly know how to copy a vjass spell into a map. it would be rly important, cause the current -save/load sucks.
here is the balanced list of attribute bonuses:

Strength:
+3 Life
+1% Crit Power
+0.2% Block Chance
+0.5% Block Power

Agility:
+1% Attackspeed
+0.2% Evasion
+0.25% Crit Chance
+0.8% Crit Power

Intelligence:
+2 Mana
+0.1% Crit Chance
+1 Spellpower
+0.2% Resistance

 

[GIMLI_2]

Some news:
i implented a threat system.
at the moment im progressing really slow, because i convert my whole triggers from GUI into Jass (thanks to Spartipilo, who is teaching me in that), that will take a while because im new in that, but i try to finish it as fast as possible.

 

[Codric]

I Like the idea, I will support this project.

 

[GIMLI_2]

I Like the idea, I will support this project.

thank you

theres still a lot to do, but in christmas holidays, galactcus and me will work all the time on this project

 

[Spoontoobig]

Any playable beta's ?

 

[GIMLI_2]

Any playable beta's ?

there will be lots of betas, but first i have to do some things, and ofc you can help us.
i think drizztDoUrden wants too so we got 4 players (i think galactcus will test too)
i will pm you if map is ready for testing

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

[GIMLI_2]
