The Undead Domain 1.7.6

Game Type: Survival / Builder / Custom Hero
Most Recent Version: 1.7.6
It's recommended to play the most recent version due to bug patches and balancing.
Recommended Players: 6-8

The Narrative

A supreme Lich, known as Lord Loss, created a world-like domain that he rules like a god. Immensely strong demons, like Lord Loss, can create Domains which they can rule and do as they please with.
Lord Loss is a demon that likes to meddle with mortal beings affairs. He is able to, with difficulty, bring a mortal soul into his domain and feast on their misery.
You, and up to 6 others, find yourself in Lord Loss's Undead domain. A domain where many undead souls rage in torment between life and death.
Lord Loss can only keep an alive soul in his domain for so long, before they are able to use the Domain gates to escape back home.
As a team, fight off the undead trapped in Lord Loss's domain, complete minigames as a team and escape!

Gameplay

The main goal of this project was to create a game that can be played in many ways and provide a fresh feel every time. Expect:
- A builder using native Warcraft 3 models. Progression is easy to pick up in terms of building a strong settlement.
- Voiceovers recorded by professional actors.
- Randomize elements of the terrain. (Destructibles, Doodads and Terrain Textures)
- Randomize each game where the Domain gates (undead spawn regions) are to encourage building in various areas of the map depending on the individual game circumstances.
- Custom hero system (with random hero bonuses).
- Minigames involve either a defense or offensive objective. The minigames are team based, not PVP, and they reward based on the success of the team.
- Hunt animals in the wilderness for gold rewards.

Used Resources:

- Alleria by Mc !

Much like other maps of the genre but it has random generation which is an improvement. Maybe you could get more advanced with it and make more terrain types. Approved. (previous comments: The Undead Domain 1)

THE UNDEAD DOMAIN 1 HD

I have for now have removed the SD/HD version. This is due to a number of updates that are required for it to match the HD version. (Such as bug fixes)

The HD (1.1) version includes a random terrain generator and is currently the most stable version.

Major Update (1.7):

- The entire terrain has had a major overhaul with new uses of doodads, destructibles and more.
- New heroes and existing heroes re-balanced.
- New Undead units featured.
- Brand new minigame. The Graveyard. As a team attack a series of graveyards protected by boss units. Quicker you destroy the graveyards, the better the reward.
- Players increased from 6 to 8.
- Minigames have brand new systems for quality of life. They will make the experience of going in and out of a minigame much smoother.
- Updating tooltips that show the correct damage of spells based on attributes.
- Summoning system completely reworked to ensure correct summon stats.

Have fun!

Major Update (1.8):
Before moving onto 'The Undead Domain 2', I am now starting to beta test a final version of 'The Undead Domain 1'.
The final version has some big changes that require beta testing to ensure the final released version won't require further updates and bug fixes.

The Undead Domain 1: 1.80 Beta 1.0
  • Most abilities are now labelled based on hero attribute (agility/intelligence/strength/neutral). Their effectiveness scales based on the hero's attributes as well as their level. Tooltips (ability captions) now update to show accurate damage and other outputs.
  • Extra hero customizable options have been added. When the hero levels, the player can choose on what areas they want to improve. Includes health, mana, attack and speed.
  • Heroes damage is now based on their class, for example ranging heroes have piercing damage and mages have spell damage. This is to make certain units more effective at killing others.
  • New hero, Berserker. This hero gains attributes temporarily every time it is attacked.
  • Footmen have had their damage amount and speed increased to improve effectiveness.
  • Escaping the domain now requires the leader to enter a region surrounding a gate, rather than the leader being close to it and then the player clicking the gate.
  • Undead units now search popular areas where players build, rather than aimlessly walking from one end of the map to the other.
  • Small terrain updates to ensure that all bases have a maximum of 2 entrances.
Bug reporting!!
Please leave bugs as a reply on this map. I will respond and give opinion/timeframe on fix.

Great one, dunno why there's so little feedback from community. The only thing I feel missing in this map - some other fractions (orcs or NE for example). I like that enemies are quite balanced, yet challenging and it's all about units, since you have only maximum of 4 towers.
Also, there's some great sound design there. I like both this background music and custom voices you used!

Anyway, played lots of surv maps recently. This one is VERY decent, especially if you play with friends! Keep it up :)
