Greetings people in Hive, lol I'm pretty new here but since I heard that this is a pretty good place for getting feedbacks for maps, so I decided to post my latest project here to get some feedbacks from senior citizen here.

Please, leave feedbacks only if you've played the map... I don't want comment like "It seems that...", "from the screen shot...", "from the features..." man I hate people that judge a book from its cover...

Stories :
After Arthas became the Lich King reborn, the world broke up into few distinct power, forming Alliance for survival. Among the most powerful are the Scourge (Lich King), Forsaken (Sylvanas and Dark Elves), Orders (Human and Orc), and other minor races such as Ogre, Satyr, Demon, Furbolg, etc

You begin the story as a mercenary in the Town of Absurtus, choosing your Main Alliance from the 3 above alliance, and gather other races and raze all the other alliance!

Features :
- A RPG game combined with a little castle siege feature style gaming.
- Each hero have 5 active spells, and 11 passive skills enchanted in a spell book, by learning the active spells you will gain bonus from the passive spells with different combination of spells. (that make up to a total of 16 spells)
- The creep system are totally random, different creep might spawn for the same creep camp, never think that *oh this is a troll camp, i can easilly handle this... OMG WTF A DEMON !!... ::sound of flesh flying around::* and you get killed. Random secial feature might get enchanted to certain creep when spawned. (stone skin, extra strong, extra fast, etc)
- Multiquest system, you can finish off the game with different way you like, like helping the evil kill the goods, helping the good kill the evils, or simply just whack up both party, is all in your hand!
- Waypoint System that allows you to switch between maps.
- Advance Inventory system giving each hero allow to carry up to 4 main page item, 16 backpack items, and also 20 equiptment slots
- Advance Potion system (Potions triggered, they will heal based on the hero's stat, eg: high str hero may gain more life from using health potion, while high int hero may gain more mana.) And all the potions stack!
- Drag and Drop combination system (we are getting bored with recipe system in many games, so something new have to come out, and here's one, you drag and drop one item into another, crafting new item, with some luck you might get some unknown-item that was not listed in the recipe list

It sounds like you are desperate to make it have features that are virtually impossible, thinking that, as long as I can stack potion and give more inventory, it will be awesome. No! A game isn't based on features, at all. Features are additional, not core.

The drag and drop will not work, because it would have to store a ton of variables and chooses from one of them, then constructs the item and removes the originals. It will not work, I will tell you right now.

uh yeah, the old map was pretty screwed up, the system crashed on each other and giving me lots of trouble so I have no choice to remake the map... Anyway this version have a much better story flow so I guess is worth it

@Elfsilver Lord:
Have you played the map? I don't understand what you were saying there, the drag and drop combine system are working fine in my map, and whats wrong with storing data variable? Hmmm... or were you assuming that things that can't be done by yourself can't be done by others?

 

[zen87]

Updated first post for a hint on what to do with the reagent items.

Reagen	Equipment	Combined item
Smithing Hammer	Mercenary Sword	Enchanted Sword
Smithing Hammer	Mercenary Guard	Enchanted Guard
Skeleton Bone	Boots of Speed	Wirt's Right
Magic Mushroom	Pendant of Energy	Pendant of Spirit
Frigid Catalyst	Orb of Frost	Orb of the North

Nice screenies you got there.
Gameplay seems nice.
Going to try it!

 

[Callahan]

It lags as hell duuring the vbattle thrall vs undead.Whot could cause this?

 

[zen87]

Hmph, it lags all the way or just lag for a while?

It might caused by the conversion of owner in the undead to an enemy force or the 1st spawn of certain unit...

 

[Callahan]

It lags more and more over time.I had to quit before the map froze.

 

[zen87]

Hmph that's weird, few of my other tester have reported no problem on that part... might because of your computer performance? Anyway I'll try optimize the code see if I could reduce the lag.

 

[flight]

The map is very well made, don't pass judgment before playing the map, jeez some people really think too much of themselves. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean everyone else can't.

The map works fine on my pc, what sort of specs do u have on ur computer Callahan?

edit:

It sounds like you are desperate to make it have features that are virtually impossible, thinking that, as long as I can stack potion and give more inventory, it will be awesome. No! A game isn't based on features, at all. Features are additional, not core.

The more I read this post the more irritated I get, the features are already there, and yes their working, get off ur high horse u incompetent fool. Just because u cant do it doesn't mean everyone else can't.

 

[Mor)L(unE]

Well well, lets pretend we are grown up gentleman and dont flame at each other shall we?

He probably means it will cause some lagg, wich after seeing the posts, perhaps it does.
Or he doesnt have enough knowledge about triggers, JASS, GUI or whatever to know it IS possible to make. (if you take a look at warsoc, you'l know whats able)

Seems like an interesting project altough the terrain could be done much better

 

[zen87]

Please, leave feedbacks only if you've played the map... I don't want comment like "It seems that...", "from the screen shot...", "from the features..." man I hate people that judge a book from its cover...

So far, not even a single proper review or feedbacks I could seen, *sigh*. Btw, JASS and GUI are both outdated now days, this map uses vJASS.

 

[Callahan]

Well i think it was only this time.Probably somthjing like virus scan occured while i was playing.
About feedback i've finished the beta in singleplayer with mistress i was on forsaken side.
I can't say really much thing about the story since it's too short and i didn't played in multiplayer.
As i said before there is so many loots but since it's in singleplayer it should be ok.
The death penalty is really hard.The shade can't travel through area so at the part where i battled against the alliance alongside the undead.I had to ressurect my hero in the heart of battle dying immediatly after ressurecting.Maybe add a temporary invulnerability after ressurecting

 

[zen87]

Hmph true, I'll do some tweaks on the next release about the death penalty, btw Callahan, I see that you have many interesting models on the resources Just wondering had you made any Lich-King-ish model? I'm in need of one here hehe...

p/s: glad to hear that there's no problem with the undead vs orc part

I was just wondering if any of the testers were playing this with multiple people?

 

[zen87]
