Make A Sketch of The Map You Plan for SC2

I'm prolly gonna do a co-op survival type map, but until the game is released I'm not sure of a theme. Possibly something like this (depending if custom modelling is easily supported) -

I'll probably take a short break from mapping all together. Of course I'm going to look at the editor soon as I purchase the game, but I'd still like to get the feel and understanding of all the characters before I go ahead and start editing them.

I think a lot of times in warcraft 3 people edit the units similarly to how they are played in the real warcraft 3. You don't see Tauren Chieftans being ranged(too often), as an example.

I think, in order to create a spectacular map--more so then your initial intentions-- you would have to let the game itself inspire you through playing it, like I'm sure warcraft 3 has for all of us.

I don't know, that's just my opinion. Some people are pretty gifted in the editing catagory so, by all means.

I'm going to be creating a siege map "Heaven's Last Stand". I don't have access to the sketch atm, I can upload it later though.
 
Omg. Super Mario World would be FUXIN AWESOMEZ. It was my childhood game (Like 5 years ago...)
 
I would want to see the (combination of wraith and goliath what was it called?) to be mario, that would be cool. I think its 2-P who made a very fun mario like game in warcraft.
 
since SC2 have some cool flying vehicles a "Death Race" or some kind of race with weapons involved would be badass.
 
BATTLE TANKS IN SPACE! <3

advanced phoenixfire, acceleration on units. custom inventory.

need i say more? :D
 
I'm going to do something called Hunt or be Hunted.

What i plan to have in it is:

Game starts, host picks either partner of FFA
Pick hero
go to safety point, were every one can buy items, yada yada
after 2 mins the game starts
all players get sent out into the forest were either them and their partner or by them selves fight other teams/or soloist.
When you die you get sent back to safety point and gain full vision of the map but cannot talk to other players but other players that died
the last partner/soloist alive wins the round and gains bonus gold
repeat.

The map will look like that, and it's called "Defense of the <insert word here>s".

> Like we all here suggest beginners to do with the wc3 editor: do not start a project right away, learn first.
Indeedy.

A dota type map? Really? >.>

Can't anyone be original? xD

I assume money = winning
and you said winning = money
that will cause an infinite loop and causes your Starcraft to crash :rolleyes:

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
