The Eternity's End (Chapter 1) (Part 1)

[Moderator]

The map was apparently removed by the owner. This leaves me no choice but deleting the entire map thread. Should you ever reupload the map, I shall restore the old review and rating.

Old Review

11:31, 5th Oct 2014
Orcnet: Each chapter gets a different story arc and expresses a lot of quests per each level and story which is great, terrain could atleast be some of change due to being clustered in some regions of the level but each trigger work for the story to happen is snap fast and right on especially when using the esc button to skip dialogue cinematics. Overall this campaign is a must to play.

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Remember to save at the end of the 'Unity Seeds' episode. because the last map is only a heads up for the next part of the chapter. And when I update the campaign, you use that save and all will be right.

 

[Leorik]

Hey mate,nicely done,awesome campaign i hope you will continue it.I have one suggestion though,i think you should either lower down the strength and health of monsters or increase the heroe's strength and health,it was kinda hard defeating them with nothing but a pickaxe and some dogs..maybe add a sword?But anyway,its an awesome campaign,which i am sure will be approved,keep on the good work!

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Thanks for playing the game. Actually the first map is some kind of tricky and yes it's hard. I wanted to make a hardcore map. But it's beatable ,though; even if all your choices are bad. The rest of the game is not that hard though. Thanks!

 

[Orcnet]

Map approved.

 

[magic.cong]

Very nice campaing! Creative！

 

[A]mun]

So i've played the first map and felt that combat was way too tedious and uninteresting.
I suggest to implement more abilities, or at least make health regeneration available at key positions, since i often had to recover by standing around to have a chance of progression (and yes i also skipped a lot of fights).
The ranged rogue unit is pretty imbalanced against melee units btw, due to hit and run.


The "jungle" how it's often called in the map looks more like a forest. This is a minor flaw, but why didn't you go for the sunken ruins tileset right away, or used those trees and doodads?

Maybe this campaign is just not for me, but apart from combat i like what you did.

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Ok guys first of all thx to orcnet for approving my campaign.
Now
Almun ty for playing. I admit the combat is a bit too extensive in the first map and very very challenging, indeed. "Prologue" was my first attempt in map-making and I had a very hard and long time finishing it, I learned some new tricks after I actually finished it. The "prologue" map is just a deviation and nothing but a mere orientation to the story. It's there, only because, there are some story-changing choices implemented into it. If that was not the case I would have removed it entirely. The real game begins in "The Borderlands"(second map). I intentionally named the first map "prologue" because I knew it'd suck. So if you use cheats in the first map, believe me (No Harm Done!)

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

By the way, now that my campaign is approved I'm going to continue the story.
(Coming Soon!)

Hard Campaign it took me ages to pass Chapter 2 but Chapter 3 Main Quest is Bugged

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Could you be more specific about the bug, so I can fix it?
And thanks for the feedback.

 

[grasep]

When its 10 minutes remaining The Quest automatically fails even if i didnt lose or 1 Champion is killed

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Bug

When its 10 minutes remaining The Quest automatically fails even if i didnt lose or 1 Champion is killed

OK. I checked the episode 3 and found a bug, but I don't think it is the bug you're experiencing. The bug I found was related to the command "evacuate". If you type "evacuate" and activate plan B, the first timer doesn't stop and after it expires, the second timer restarts no matter how close you are to the end; And this causes the game to be Mega Hard and possibly unbeatable.
However, I list the reasons for failing the mission in episode 3 here:
Before plan B:
1. Zack, McSteve or Valingram die
2. Too many enemy troops enter the area near the Commanding Chambers
3. You type the command "Evacuate" when the game tells you so
Plan B:
1. Zack, McSteve or Valingram die
2. 10 citizens die
If none of the above happened to you, then send me your replay of the mission and I'll have a better look on the issue.

 

[grasep]

Well when i Typed Evacuate it worked and The Timer Changed but when it gets to 5 minutes it Restarted ( The Difference Between the 2 Timers) and thats was getting impossible yea true and When it Restarted after a period of time it failed and i lost the game with no reason. anyway i will restart The mission and Send u a replay

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

I fixed the problem and updated the map. If you have a save in the previous level just download the campaign and start from your save.

 

[Atenath]

This campaign lacks of optimization in difficulty level. Can't you create a multiple difficulty levels. I can't complete even prologue and I'm not that who uses cheats to complete the game Sorry it's my opinion I just want to suggest that you should improve and make it more friendly to beginners

Oh ok Thanks .. Fortunately i have a save of Chapter 2 at the 5th Nether Portal

The prologue is even hard for me
OK! I'll see what I can do.

 

[grasep]

When is Part 2 Comming?

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Soon. But right now I'm working on a normal difficulty to be added to the game for begginers

 

[DD Mikasa]

I played only the 3 first missions of the camping and i think i am capable on giving a review(Do note i have played only 3 first missions)
Terrain 4/5:I am a guy who finds terrain work the most Pain in the Butt part of building a camping even tho i saw a few miss conseptions,In the first mission to me it looks like a forset not a Jungle.Other than that it looks fine to me.
Unites 2/5:The reason why i am giving such a low points for this,its cuz you dident add any custom unite model you just took the original ones and added them some abilitys.Same gose for the buildings.As well you dident even bother to add some exlusive unites for the Crusaders(the name dosent ring right now )You just gave them two basic unites spearthrowers or javalinthorwers and the footman to me it looks kinda rushed.
Gameplay 4/5:The most and hard mission for me was the first one and was really enjoyable the others were...i will just call it casual.The feature of -points was really cool idea and the side mission were good (I would suggest to add an indication system for the side missions sinc sometime you kinda get lost).The fact that you are giving the command to make choices and those choices have an inpact on your side quests is also good.Adding some more spells to the to charaters in the first mision would be helpfull for the players that arent that good at microing their unites.
Plot 3/5:It is kinda to early to give a opinion on this sinc the camping it is on the early stages but here gose.Its kinda casual.Its always that one guy whose The hunger for power just brings trouble and more trouble



P.S:I would have added the section on what i will like to see on this camping but i am so dam tired from school...
Looking foward to this camping.(Remeber no need to rush it there is always something more that can make the camping even better )Just take it easy

 

[klawster01]

In the third mission(second after prologue)how can I fill Yuvrsan's bottle with blood?

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

DD Mikasa
Thx for the feedback. I'll definitely consider your opinions next time. I accept that this campaign has flaws. I'm kina not quite satisfied with it myself, either. But the plot is not what you think, it's only some simple backgrounds to support the main plot. The main plot has not yet started. all of these are just clarifications. But still thank you for your opinion.

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

give the bottle to your hero and kill someone with him. Remember the unit must have red blood
But for the record: Plz do not post here for questions about secrets or the likes, instead send me a private message. Ty all.

 

[klawster01]

You be da man!

 

[DD Mikasa]

So I settled down and thought about some new things that you can use on your camping.So you ready??!!!Here goes
Bulldings section:
To me the rogue buildings were rushed and lacked originality.
1.Main building:For a human society to have a oversized centaur tent as a main bulding its kinda weird.Imo you could have used a Town market model as a main building just make it bigger and make it darker and name it City hall or whatever pops in your head.
2.Farms:IMO it would have been better if you used the human farm model or just keep the existing one
3.Barracks:A mercenary camp model would be much more fitting
4.Deffensive towers:Here i would suggest to shift the roles,Font towers should become Boulder towers(whith sige damage) and as for replacment for them just use the casual human scouting tower model.
5.Lumbermill/Blacksmith:This is kinda hard sinc i dont know if you are capable of doing it this,a modyfied human GrainWarhouse that has a pieace of wood popping out of it could be interesting It works as a place to drop lumber and do upgrades for the army
6.Spellcaster Unite building:Hmm...Arcane Observatory a littel bit smaller than the standart model
Unite Section:
Rogues only unites were FootMan and Spearthrowers
1.Cavalery:Use the Bandit Lord unite,just remove his ablitys and rename him to Rogue Rider as well as add the animal war traning upgrade
2.Spellcasters:As supportive unites Use the emissary model rename it to Rogue Cleric or just Clreic for ablitys healing hand,Absorb magice and Frost armour
Agressiv spellcaster unites use the Hydromancer model,for ablitys Blizzard,Sea Element summon(the one that has bash as passive) and Water wave.
7.Sige unites:Use the warcraft 3 regin of chaos orcish katapult model
Building upgrades section:
Barracks:It has defens upgrade,Blaistic upgrade and animal war training upgrade.Spwans FootMan unites,JavalinThrower unites,Cavalary Unites and Sige unites
Lumbermill/Blacksmith:It has Lumber Harvesting upgrade and Masonry(the one that improves the building armour) upgrade.As for army upgrades use the orc model and icons it fits perfectly .
Arcane Observatory:Has the adept and master upgrades for both spellcaster unites Spwans Clerics/Rogue Clerics and Hydromancers
CityHall:It has the upgrades to City Keep and City Cathedral.Spwans Slaves.

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

DD Mikasa you should know that I'm not making a routine old school WarCraft campaign. You'll get my point when you see what my plans are for races and heroes. But thx anyway for your opinion. I'll have them in mind and I'm sure I will use them when the time comes.

Sorry my bad,I ment things that could help you inprove your camping not things that the camping needs,You see english its not my first languag and i make the same mistake i still havent been able to tame it

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

No hard feelings buddy I got your point. Hope you got mine too.

 

[leprechaun]

Really like your campaing-multiple choices,story and all.Terrain could be better in some places.Hope you have the fortitude to finish it.

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Ty
I'm really busy these days, but I'm still working on it whenever I have spare time.

 

[DD Mikasa]

So any progress or the camping it is halted for now?

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Sorry for the delay - I'm busy with my last year exams in college and I'll be back on it as soon as I'm graduated. But still I'm working on it whenever I can.

 

[DD Mikasa]

As loong as you dont give up on the project its fine by my standarts


Any progress on the campain?

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Yes there is progress. The next episode that I'm working on is 4 times bigger than the previous episodes. And by bigger I mean bigger in scripting. The amount of scripting for this episode is par to a whole campaign in original warcraft.
I'm really sorry for this long delay. My graduation, work, taking part in Zephyr Contest #12 (which seems to have been just a waste of 2 weeks of my time) and, of course, that virus that blew up my PC are factors related to this delay.

So, don't worry! It's coming out soon!

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

I'm sorry! I can't!
I don't have time anymore! Full time job is kicking my butt.
Ty all for playing and not playing my campaign. Hope I'll get spare time soon and I can continue the story.

Ah...the community of freaks is what I've born into! Fitting in with normal people, is what I'm NOT dreaming of! Thank God for that!!

Till then, bye all!

What a shame...I was really looking foward to this...Well God luck with your life brother...Do no forsake us tho...I hope you will get some spare time so you can continue on this story.

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

ty bro
I really need some luck!
Ty again

 

[yogiman]

hello! how can i beat the centaur in the prologue? cant escape, cant kill =(thx

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

That was the most difficult boss I've ever made. The three pillars around it must be destroyed before you can kill him. They give him immortality!

 

[yogiman]

Yeah i got this, but 4000hp oO.. Ill try it on easy Mode ;-)

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

Actually easy mode doesn't effect the boss just reduces some units on the way sorry about that but maybe you've made the worst choices in game so your units are less than usual!
So some hints about that:
Try saving all of your units and choosing different choices for better consequences.
Try saving all of your dogs in the boss. They're your best bet for beating the boss! (they have high damage)
Try luring the boss away so the stun doesn't effect all of your units!
And of course you can use cheats in the prologue because it was an experimental map and is a little imbalance, though still beatable!
Good luck

Edit: The easy mode affects the pillars hp, as far as I remember!

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

I updated the campaign. Please read the important notice in the description. Bye Hive members. Thank you for your time.

PS:
And by the way there are 2 or 3 models and lots of icons I used in this fourth episode which are all from Hive. So I really don't have time or any motivation for crediting. Please forgive me! If you see a new model be assured that it belongs to someone in the hive. If moderators consider this out of site's rules, they can feel free to remove this tread.

 

[WarLord69]

Wow the last map is really confusing.Has anyone passed the room with the tomb?The one with the flames.

 

[WarLord69]

Nope.I give up.The last map makes absolute no sense at all.

 

[Deleted member 247165]

An incredible campaign.I have just played the first mission...and I already got really impressed.You should continue updating it.In my point of view,this campaign is the first after Mal'Furion's Quest of course.That campaign is the most incredible I've ever played.Anyway good job and keep up the good work

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

So, anybody actually finished the last episode? Any last question?

Wow the last map is really confusing.Has anyone passed the room with the tomb?The one with the flames.

Steal the key from the guard and open the gate then capture him and hit the lever in the next room and the magical door's password is written in the book of cyphers.

Ask whatever you want to ask and I'll answer it. And couple of hours later I'm gonna delete this map.

 

[Tleno]

Erm... was this thing killed off by the author? Well damn, that sucks.

 

[DaneTheBeast]

Is it deleted now?
