[Campaign] Tomoraider's Campaign Series

[knight26]

Yeah, I saw it, but I don't really like it.

Yeah the more I analyze it, it seems to actually be misshaped.. too long, and the textures don't fit well together. :/ It's a shame though, the new 'forsaken plague' deserves a better siege unit than the meat wagon..
Still I'll keep my eyes out IF there's something better.
Bthw, I couldn't find anything for the apothecary, and I searched many war3 modding sites.. It's a shame, though that doesn't bother me that much either.

 

[Forsaken]

Well, this catapult is pretty good, and will fit better the Forsaken, or until for the scourge and the Forsaken don't have the same siege units machine xD
Forsaken Catapult

Forsaken Catapult

Actually that one looks pretty awesome!.. Though tomoraider's theme is less sinister, so the skull might be a no-no. Still I'd suggest it as well. Nice find @Forsaken

Forsaken Catapult

Eh, yeah, like Knight26 said, it's pretty awesome, but it just doesn't fit in.

 

[Go'el]

So...... any news??

 

[Renly Baratheon]

I really can't wait for this. I haven't finished the original but I decided to just wait for the updated one.

 

[tomoraider]

I would post if there were any news.

Sorry, I don't have any plans for a War of the Ancients campaign.

 

[shadeslayer]

campaign

Maybe this campaign (if you make this campaign of course) could be during books of warcraft like wolfheart or strormrage ? What do you think about it ?

Eh, I don't think really think I'll be making campaigns based on books. I'll be sticking with the WoW expansions so far.

 

[Chen]

Okay, I guess, the next campaign is about the nightmare/emerald dream, but still, good luck tomoraider!

 

[Olivertkf]

Many time with no updated, are you really busy tomoraider?

 

[tomoraider]

I'm busy with school.

EDIT: Hmm. I need an opinion. Do you think it might actually be better for the new Forsaken buildings to not spread blight and be built on it? I'm not really sure.

 

[Forsaken]

EDIT: Hmm. I need an opinion. Do you think it might actually be better for the new Forsaken buildings to not spread blight and be built on it? I'm not really sure.

At least for me, they don't need to create the blight around, it's looks like they want to corrupt the lands around; and make everything dark, like the scourge does.

 

[tomoraider]

Actually, it even looks better without blight. Check it out:

Screenshot

 

[Forsaken]

Yea, looks really better now

Btw, maybe you should change Varimathas' icon for Balnazzar's icon, and, the worker's face look really weird.

 

[Heinvers]

Looks better without blight for sure. The Alterac chapter I assume it is. Btw did you gave Varimathras new abilities?

 

[knight26]

Hey surprisingly it does look better without blight
But one thing, from the screenshot, since now they get new building shouldn't they be building them like humans and elves do, instead of summoning them(autocomplete)?.
I think it would be better to build them instead.

They'll be building them like orcs, the unit goes into the buildings to build it.

Here are some screenshots of Undercity and Lordareon City Ruins. It's unfinished so it doesn't look as good yet, but I just wanted to show it.

[Heinvers]

Looks good for a WIP terrain. U need some spire in those ruins as Lordaeron City had.

Yea, i agree with Heinvers, placing some towers around will give a feel of "castle". Maybe you could use this towers: Castle Tower and Cone Tower, just let it more darker.

Anyway, good work so far

 

[tomoraider]

Yeah, I might add some. Those two you linked look pretty cool, I might add the 2nd one.

 

[knight26]

Orcs and naga.. don't forget the poor naga
Well that will look good too, as long as they don't autocomplete/summon it's fine!

The pics are looking good for WiP's but everything seems green at the moment, maybe a variety of tileset will make it seem more attractive!
My suggestions:
Try to experiment like the map where Sylvanas and Varimathras kill Garithos and Detheroc, and the map with Balnazzar.
I understand that the fight will go on outside the city, though a city atmosphere on one side would feel creative and original!
That's about what I can suggest.

Naga, they need to appear more. Sadly, they got no place in CotF D:

Anyway, I do agree, I still need add some more tiles and doodads there, but honestly, I did not like the atmosphere in that map much. I'm sort of trying to recreate the atmosphere of Tirisfal Glades from WoW.

 

[Heinvers]

For the atmosphere you could try a more toned down green, maybe a faint greenish-blue for it. It would be better than the vivid green you use now. Also try adding some fog doodads to the Tirisfal Glades chapters.
Also if you include blight in your terrain make just bits of it not large areas. Just tips from me.
Good luck again with this tomoraider

That's good, but you could make the terrain "more write" insede the city, and the terrain on outside can be better, but as you said, it's unfinished, but I hope that you improve it
and now I have a suggestion for you, you could make a introlude showing the Alliance, the Horde and the Eastern Kingdons's Horde arriving in Northrends, such as you did with the Forsaken in RotBE 2.0, and make a new playable map wich the Forsaken fight against the Scarlet Onslaught, in Northrends.
And now a question, will you make the Valiance Keep, and the Warsong Hold, and the The Hand of Vengeance ??

Hmm, I don't think I'll be making that interlude, but there is a new interlude between Chapter Six and Seven that will show the Forsaken leaving Lordareon.

And I don't do factions in such detail usually, it's just gonna be Alliance and the Horde (including Forsaken and the Blood Elves).

 

[istvan921]

So anyway what is your third campaign? a rework of curse of the forsaken or some alliance themed campaign

 

[Go'el]

His third campaign is "Rise of the Blood Elves - Enchanted Edition".

 

[StormWarriors2]

What about....
BOTH!?!?!?
DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNN

Actually he hasn't done an alliance one.

 

[StormWarriors2]

Maybe he's a Horde fan? I dunno. Maybe he felt that an Alliance one is too overused?!?

Nah. Alliance isn't over used. Scourging of Lordaeron = Alliance Loss, First War = Alliance Loss, the alliance has lost almost every war they have been in.

 

[Go'el]

True, and they have won the Second War only because Gul'dan have gone to the Tomb of Sageras with a half of the old Horde's army. And remeber, the Alliance in the Second War was formed by 8 factions (Quel'Thalas, Lordaeron, Atlerac, Dalaran, Gilneas, Aerie Peak, Stromgarde, Ironforge and the remants of Stromwind).
The Horde could easily destroy every single soldier who care love for those rats of the Alliance.

I think blizzard is Anti-Alliance and Pro-Horde.

I mean who suffered most at the hands of Garrosh? The Alliance.

Scourge? Alliance.

Horde? Alliance.

Lich King? Alliance.

 

[tomoraider]

I don't count RotBE EE as my 3rd campaign, it's a remake. And I do prefer the Horde, but I might do an Alliance campaign in the future.

 

[istvan921]

That would be nice

 

[Go'el]

A Gilneas campaign would be nice, but they haven't lore enough for that.

 

[StormWarriors2]

Stromguarde also needs a campaign.... >.>

Gilenas has more screen time than Stromguarde

 

[Heinvers]

Stromgarde, hmm, not bad But I think the thread has derailed a bit with these suggestions D:
Tone it down guys a bit. I still wait for new screenshots, I'm impatient as always

 

[tomoraider]

I don't have plans for either of those campaigns, but you can probably expect Gilneas to make an appearance at some point in the next campaign.

 

[StormWarriors2]

Yeah!

Can't wait to see a sneak peak!

 

[Go'el]

good, I'll be waiting

 

[tomoraider]

You won't see a sneak peek anytime soon because I haven't actually done any work on it yet o.o

 

[Olivertkf]

But, can't you giving some spoiler for us know about, just for stop your curious xD

 

[Go'el]

NO! NO! NO! Don't reveal anything!

 

[Heinvers]

I say that he revealed too much already. Where will be the fun playing it if you know everything about it already Olivertkf?

 

[istvan921]

He's right man where's the fun in that?

 

[knight26]

I AGREE. Don't reveal anything that we haven't seen already! In example a few screenshots and brainstorming is totally okay. But no major plans!
As most users here, I too want to enjoy the campaign and its secrets ^_^

 

[tomoraider]

I know, I'm telling you stuff about CotF cause, well, it's not going to be changed that much, but I'm not revealing anything about my 3rd campaign until I actually do some work on it.

 

[Binsu]

Interesting new remake of your existing campaign. Indeed, you have a good attitude of finishing out your project first before on moving to another one.

I also agree with those changes you are going to implement. It seems simple and small at the first look but I do as well prefer just some right amount of remakes instead of fully remaking it because as what Aero said at the first post, it indeed waste some time and might make you lose motivation at some points by staying too much on the same project for long durations.

Anyway, I wish you luck here and more powers to you.
