Map Ideas

Great ideas everyone, but I thought up something myself. The idea needs a lot of work, but it should be fun to create and make. Basically you are in some type of dream world where anything can happen, and the point of the map is to get to the ring of power in the middle before the other players. I already have the background story to it pretty much figured out, and it should be prtty fun since anything can happen in this 'dream world'. You have to fight monsters and do quests along the way, and I'll have random obstacles that make the game challenging, like quests that have no purpose or places where you randomly teleport to another part of the map. it should be pretty fun, but we'll just have to wait and see.

Tell me what you think of my idea .

not bad,but map must be HUGE.
You fightning with monster about hour and you finds that your enemy took the ring early then you
heh, it will be funny

Actually, it wouldn't have to be too big, what I plan is for you to be able to cross the other players roads and maybe get to fight them. Then, if you die, you end up in some different area of the map, making it confusing.

Plus, when someone reaches the ring the game is over. The guy who got the ring gets a victory sign, guys who didn't get a defeat sign.

More feedback would be much appreciated. I'm always open to ideas to implement for the map .

EDIT: Another idea I just had to combat map size would have the players cross the same area more than once, and have something different each time. For example, at one point you may find yourself passing a place where you recieve a quest, the next time you pass the place there's a monster there. That way the players have to keep guessing throughout the entire map so they won't be killed.

plz write the name of your map...(only for fun)

Well, I haven't thought of a name yet, I'll post here when I think it up.

I like the idea. You should make sure the players can see what their opponents are doing, or at least have recon stuff like sentry/watcher wards scattered around. Competitive maps are no fun unless you know what'd happening.

I am currently making an AoS, if you want, we could team up and give each other ideas

EDIT::

Oh I forgot, visit my map topic on [http://www.wc3sear.ch/viewtopic.php?t=3767]

@[DragonSS]amurai-X: Well I'm already working on a seperate project with someone, but thanks for the offer. I'd rather have something that I can work on at my own slow pace and not having to worry about the hassle of working on a team.

As for the idea of seeing other players, I think thats a good idea. It would probably make the map even more competitive.

Keep the ideas flowing everyone .

A game you would play all day (like i used to do with legacies)
An idea i had was WoW 3rd person rpg
Like legacies changing the veiw to the back of the unit (or possible have a first person mode if its possible..)
Have cool looking skins but not to Overpower the terrain.
Maby have new races, Such as a Golem race, Dwarfs, Centaurs, and possibly Some demonic race... like Demon Animals...
Maby edit the wc3 models a bit to make them look original. lol or just make it stupid and have textures that are totaly white (veiw my texture called, The worst texture ever!!!. You will see why i call it that.. And then have a Square head (like totaly square. Or cubes for bones.

Thanks for the idea, but I think I'll stick with m,y idea.

Everyone keep the feedback flowing!

I like your idea, and i actually had a similar idea but i got bored after making the characters.
The only thing that i could suggest is minigames every so often that are quick and not too difficult, that give bonus' and stuff.
Make Characters abilities able to get very powerful very quickly so people cant just mad dash to the ring without getting messed up.
Also (though i hate when people give me descriptions) make it short so i could lose and not care.

Complex chaotic environments with simple goals and simple controls games are the best when you just cant concentrate...

If ur not sure what i mean think about it when playing games like kill switch or halo

thats a cool idea, but you would have to have puzzles like mist does (mabye not as complex, but hard).

@Formula1: I was thinking of mini-games, I'll have to see how it is while I'm doing it. I pretty much thought that the quests and stuff would keep you busy, but I'll see.

@Kerrigan: I've never played mist so I'm not sure what you're talking about, but the map is pretty much about puzzles and being confusing.

Anyways, I have the background story figured out. You play as a warrior of your choice training to be some sort of warrior. Now you've come to your final test to graduate as a full fledged warrior. The test takes place in a dream world created by powerful wizards who made it for this test. The purpose is simple - reach the middle first. But, on the way you encouter hardships challenging all attributes a warrior needs, strangth, agility, intelligence, stamina etc.

Feedback is more than welcome

heh

i got one.... again..
Ok its a campaign sorta thing.
You start off as a peasant.
You farm, hgrow pigs , cattle, plants ect.
When you get the cash you can purchase armor and weapons.
When you get enough stuff you can go into the blacksmith and get the stuff fitted onto you.
Then you become a footman.
Sence you should have cash from farming n' stuff theres no need to have to farm (for awhile at any rate.)
But you need to be able to go into a blacksmith and take off your gear at any time.
Gear would be limited to certain types.
Clay sword: +1 to attack break chance 12% a hit (high)
Troine armor: +1 to defense break chance 7% every hit you take (medium)
Both of the following could be for a peasant.
Then after your a footman you can get stuff like.
Agdract Sword: +3 to attack break chance 9% (high)
Agdract Iron: +2 to defense break chance 19% (VERY HIGH)
Agdract Armor: +3 to defense break chance 7% medium)
Armorless Horse: +0 cannot break. transforms you to a knight.
You may notice 2 armors one of them is a shield (Agdract iron)
then stuff moves up like that.
Knights can upgrade to armored horse: knight
Then have a choice of becoming a mercenary and do missions and have a chance to explore the outside world.
Or become a full fledged royal warrior and gaurd the castle from Lord Artha'k (a very powerful orcish king with hopes of taking over the pityful human city.
Along with defending it from creeps and other things.
Maby even have a third guy an explorer that could do research for the king and recive gold for finding things like naga ruins orcish secrets, human fallen buildings ect.
Full fleged royal warrior can kill the king to become king.
Mercenary can do the same or kill the orcish king to rule over them.
Explorer can kill the king or kill another species ruler like an ancient naga race thats been hiding from illidan or somin.
Geeze i should make this game...

test

is a test...
