Map Description is bad.

Map Description is bad.

Is this some kind of horrible joke.

It's a melee map with a screenshot and the suggested players - both of which provide enough information.

There are some wide gaps inbetween places, but it looks good.

 

[Captin_Worpex]

Ah! But thats the point Xeno! Those gaps are just small enough to only allow worker units to pass through to allow early game scouting without having to tear down the gate first.

Also the screenshots are a little bit old and the map has seen some changes in terraining and such. Not much though.

 

[light bolt30]

The terrain layout is quite unique and seems balanced, it's also merely symmetrical too. You could also provide how many creep camps, creep types, goldmines, etc about the map in your description too.

 

[Eldubs]

Take a look at my melee maps. Thats a good description for a melee map.

 

[Shaeam]

Very... Interesting melee map with somewhat good terrain... I'm glad to see that melee maps are making a comeback as of late, not sure why, not complaining though.

I do got a few gripes about this map however, my biggest one is probably the fact the map seems so small and three gold mines for each player seems a bit much... Specially for such a small map, i'd suggest 5 maps (2 for each player and 1 "neutral" expansion in a place that's accessible by both players to the same extent, and even though its a rather small complaint I think some of the tile variation looks the same on both sides.

Otherwise, great map, but since it's just so small I can only give 3/5, hope this comment helped you improve your otherwise great map.

Yours doesn't say much more than mine does besides version changes and the amount of goldmines (which can be easily counted by simply looking at the picture). Since this is the only version I released publicly, I don't really see the importance of the first one.

@Nolyp: Thanks for the useful feedback! I will admit this is far from my best melee map, but it isn't bad. A bit too blocky and it is somewhat small. Not too well balanced for league play either, but still fun!

Description needs atleast a little eye candy. Thats what i am trying to say.

Achieved by screenshots at different angles.

I'd rather see the melee map than read about how many F*king goldmines it has - which was pointed out already: you can freaking count them....

STOP HAMMERING DESCRIPTIONS IF THEY MEET BASIC STANDARDS

You still dont need to start flaming about this.

Simple description but still good enough!
Everything was ok, item drops are fine (more or less)
There is enough number of gold mines, room for build, lumber and so on!

Still I find small error in pathing ground, maybe you wanted to make it that way, but it won't allow big units to move through there
Just check picture!

I will still Approve your map.
Good job dude!
Have a nice day!

Yup, i had mentioned that earlier on in this thread actually.

Thanks for the approval!

Sorry I didn't checked all post I just searched fast to see if someone didn't trolled or something like that!

No problem I take that case into discussion as well

...maybe you wanted to make it that way...

 

[Cokemonkey11]

Looks interesting enough. I'm not sure how well this would work out for a competitive map though. 6 gold mines for 2 players, and separated by a wall with 2 destructible gates...

4*

 

[takakenji]

Map Description is bad.

amazing map reviewer my friend

 

[The World Is Flat]

I suggest more eyecandy on the wall and trees, good melee map, however.

 

[nic]

Very well.

 

[lcbc1207]

It kinda reminds me of the beginner map variants in Starcraft 2 with the rocks(in this case gates) preventing early rushes. Could actually be useful for something like that.

 

[Damage]

Except that Gates in Warcraft 3 can be knocked down by a single Footman in about 20 ish hits, where as the rocks' armour in Starcraft really stunted Zerglings/Zealots/Marines progress.

Don't forget the rather small issues of computers not attacking gates in wc3.

If I say, wanted to practice on this map it'd be impossible without destroying the gate myself.
