[Campaign] Tomoraider's Campaign Series

[Atshiel]

There are great ideas here

 

[knight26]

@Forsaken, that's an awesome idea in fact! I also agree with you. It makes sense, they are ghosts after all.
And @tomo removing the shades and replacing them with banshee scout ability could also be pretty neat!.
Hey you could remove curse completely and everyone would like that more, it leaves more mana for possession. I always have to deactivate auto-target to save mana for possession anyway.. Yep a passive ability instead of curse should be good. Though the benefits should be a tad larger now, keep that in mind.

I'll post a few more tomorrow, I'll try to be more creative this time. Perhaps something completely new and out of the box. We'll see.

Well, Curse is a really good ability to me, but since the Banshee will has a new spell(if you are going to use, Tomo) It would be better you increase the cooldown of Curse(Maybe 3-4 seconds?)

 

[Olivertkf]

Tomo, what do you think of add this Buildings for the Alliance in Northrend? It would fits well! And will you change the tech-tree of the humans?

 

[tomoraider]

Yes, I will leave Curse for Banshees, but they'll get an upgrade in the Royal Lab that replaces Curse with a new ability, so if someone doesn't like it, they can just not research it and keep Curse. And I'll still need to see how I'll make the scout ability work, but I love that idea.

And Olivertkf, those are good buildings, but they just feel unnecessary, they feel a bit too much.

Maybe but you gotta change the appearance in accordance to the environment in Northrend. Well it's your call tomo.

 

[tomoraider]

Yeah, but honestly, I don't find that really important. Other races would then be left out since their buildings wouldn't be snowy.

Fair point. btw Have you started the other campaign? Shadow of Blood?

I've mostly just been planning the story, I'll start working on it fully once I finish CotF.

EDIT: Just added both Vengeance and Lament of the Highborne to Banshees, both works great!

I saw that screenshot with Thrall and I'm glad that there are a few more orcs with him, because it doens't make sense that Thrall, the most important figure in the Horde, came all the way here unprotected.

 

[Sunreaver]

What do you mean?

How u make the upgrade or ability through triggers ?

 

[tomoraider]

How u make the upgrade or ability through triggers ?

What upgrade or ability? I don't think you can make an upgrade through triggers, abilities you can, but I don't know much about that.

Also, here is a new screenshot from Chapter Ten!

[Forsaken]

Nice screenshot, have i said that i can't wait to play? Anyway, i can't wait to play lol

Good luck!

 

[Deleted member 238589]

Great, I can't wait for this to be finished.

 

[Deleted member 239421]

I think you're the only one who's still making WCIII custom campaigns (and thank god you are among the good ones). I've pretty much exhausted all the good campaigns so now you are our only ray of hope in the custom campaigns. I come here every time to check the progress and even a 10% makes me happy.

Thank you, and you probably have, many times. :>

Why thank you so much, I am glad you like them.

You're funny :3

 

[knight26]

BLEEP needs to get her/his shit together. :3
Edit: Hey tomo, think you could redo and change one spell of apothecary? If I remember correctly, he has a healing one like the goblin hero, and two similar spells, one that stuns and one that deals damage?
I think you could combine those two other spells and instead add a third one. Preferably an auto-targeting one.. It could be something similar to that 'dark fang' you were planning for ghouls, something to reduce movement and attack speed of enemies.

Well, he still the Shadow Bolt and Healing Flasks, but I changed the 2nd one to a spell like the Lightning Shield from shamans, but it has a poisonous look. I think I'll be keeping it like that since I like those.

And I haven't yet added anything for ghouls. Think I should?

Well if you've already changed one then it's good.
Well they are pretty useless to begin with.. but instead of adding another spell, you could modify their late game upgrade(the +20% attack rate) to be more useful. Like the dark fang thing you planned, reduce enemies attack rate for a bit. Ghouls die pretty fast anyway, but to defend the base they are essential.

Yeah, that would be fun, though I'm not sure if I'd like to modify their upgrade at the Crypt since this one would be from the Royal Laboratory. Though I think it should be called Dark Slash or something along those lines since they don't actually seem to bite. I'll need to find some awesome icon for that.

EDIT: Also, I feel like just giving a poison attack to abominations is a lame upgrade. Got any ideas for them maybe?

 

[Deleted member 238589]

Abominations could use an ability based on "Frenzy" ability. I can't think of anything else that they could have.

But, if you decide to do that, you should also reduce their base attack rate. They are meant to be slow anyway.

 

[tomoraider]

The screenshots is cool and i mean the spider upgrade ?

I forgot to respond, lol, I made it that when you research the upgrade, a trigger is enabled that spawns a spider whenever you train a dark ranger.

 

[Sunreaver]

Oh so the spider will follow the Dark Ranger ?

 

[tomoraider]

Only when it's trained, it will go to the same rally point like the Dark Ranger, but otherwise you have to control it like any other unit.

 

[7oda]

Hi Tomo, i have 3 ideas for the Abomination:
1-You could add the explosion ability of the goblin sapper but in the Abomination style.
2-You will find it a bit silly that you add a hook ability that damages the target and stuns it based on storm bolt or fire bolt.
3-Leave him without abilites.

 

[knight26]

Hmm I'm not sure how I feel about those little spiders, are they going to take up food?
And also it's gonna be a bit hard controlling units, I guess we will just rush the spiders to suicide first head on..

 

[Sunreaver]

Maybe u can request at the Request Section to ask somewant to make that like locust swarm ability that would be more cool.

 

[The Procrastinator]

I already beat you guys to a better idea for the abom upgrade.

/cackle

No, I'm not telling you what it is.

They won't cost food, though I'll still see if I can do something better with them.

It involves the Abomination dying.

 

[Yousef]

Oh oh, let me guess, Aboms deal little dmg to all enemies (maybe even allies like in Hearthstone) around them in a small AoE when they die!
Edit:
That was just a guess, now I got something to replace the old plague cloud around them that deals dmg to enemy units around, it depends if what I said is correct about their death: remove the cloud and when they die make them plague the enemy units around them, this will require an upgrade.

 

[tomoraider]

Some updates, I finished Chapter Ten, and I finished the awesome hero choosing triggers I mentioned earlier, and I also believe Chapter Eleven will be done pretty quickly.

Yay!

 

[Go'el]

I'll give you one week, finish it or face my wrath *Imagine the Kil'jaeden's bad face* :3

 

[7oda]

OR he can imagine Sargeras Evil face.

 

[brianjasonponce]

This is so awesome! I can't wait to play it when it's released!

 

[Forsaken]

OMG, It's nearly finished! If all goes right, this can be release in this weekend? lol

Good luck!

 

[tomoraider]

I don't really know how much longer it will take, we shall see.

 

[Yousef]

Double your efforts! I want it this weekend!




Just kidding, take your time.

 

[Heinvers]

Make that 2.

 

[tomoraider]

Anything is possible, but I wouldn't count on it this weekend. :>

 

[knight26]

Yeah this weekend would've been super duper cool. Since I'll be busy soon enough again. But I wouldn't want you rushing it either, so take your time ;3

 

[Heinvers]

Heinvers smells a made up word in sight

[tomoraider]

All the excitement. I might share some screenshots tomorrow.
