[Bloodcount]

Hm.. looks nice to play, and the new chat-spellcasting system is really original.The "codes" the robots and the overall look at the map Look really cool! Keep it up!Although I thought that the battle system will be a lot moore different.oh, and btw did you make the models of the droids?

 

[Lord]

No! I've downloaded them from wc3sear.

 

[Sirroelivan]

Looks like another great project, Lord!

By the way, how did you make those trailers?

ahh so much typing

Cool trailer.

I give it a:
8/10

The models and sounds were really cool and nice. I liked the creates. (That robot model is based off Dranei Seer ).

The sounds were not balanced with each other. The robot's selection-animation sound was OK, but it's attacking sound was so loud! The abilities seem a bit boring, even if they are not all melee. I suggest making them more fast-paced and have nicer effects. All in all, it seems like a great game. Waiting for it!

Question: What did you use to record that video/other videos?

Fraps.

The game you saw in the trailer was just an early alpha version. The beta/final will be much more interesting I promise!

Thanks for your comments!

 

[Accname]

very nice, i liked the custom tiles.
like it has already set i would advice you to use some really cool looking spell ideas which fit to the future theme.

by the way have you made the sounds yourself? i would suggest to remove the "Command Accede" sound because it will be annoying to hear it each time you click.




Seems like another nice idea for a single player campaign lord, keep it up! (although its multiplayer right now it may become single player in future. i hope so)

 

[Bloodcount]

Hm...are you sure you haven't been inspired by Assasin's Creed???(cuz the ideas are, simular just that you are using robots, and in AC they are using a device to enter Altair's Past...)
Either way it looks interesting.(well the orbs are cool, verry unwarcraft-ish - cool)
And the spells are awso nice (enjoed the portal)
But- are there going to be purchasable items (or perhaps when you kill a driod you pick up parts of him that are still usable?)

 

[Lord]

It is "Command Received" . Yes, the soudsets are my creations. I know what you mean, and I will remake them for the final version.

Hm...are you sure you haven't been inspired by Assasin's Creed???

I am! I've never played with that game...

But- are there going to be purchasable items

You can't purchase, nor drop items in this game. There's an ability called "Create Spike". When you click on it, an item (called spike) appears in your char's inventory. This thing is totally useless till you code it. There are 4 'coders' in the playable area. You have to enter one, then type the numbers you see above it. It will replace your Spike to a Coded Spike, which gives your char a random buff when used. This is the only way to create and use items. :shades:


Thanks for your comments! Write if you have any further questions!

 

[Bloodcount]

Well, why don't you make the droids ranged?

 

[Lord]

Well, why don't you make the droids ranged?

Because the game requires more tactics this way.

 

[Bloodcount]

I thought so but then a bug hit me- if yout hero starts a mele atack it will hit the other hero eaven if he is far away.Also, please consider adding Rocets or Lasers as combinations.Like base them on carrion swarm with low AoE and it will dmg enemies who are only hit by the rockets(i can't take the high-tech mele robot gig it is too much)

 

[thewrongvine]

lol, Bloodcount, give it up with the Assassins' Creed already. He doesn't know it.

@Lord, maybe if you make the attack ranged, you make it the Attack-Ground type so you have to aim it.

 

[Lord]

Um... I can't tell I fully understood what you meant.

if yout hero starts a mele atack it will hit the other hero eaven if he is far away.

Where did you get that?

 

[Bloodcount]

Um... I can't tell I fully understood what you meant.



Where did you get that?

Personal experience.Trust me on that one.In mele games this sort of sh%t used to happen verry often.

 

[Sirroelivan]

I think bloodcount means that when a unit starts it's attack, the damage will land on the target, even if the target moves away. But this is just inherent to warcarft's engine, so it happens on every map. (Also with spells for example, death coil is cast on a target, target blinks, death coil stil hits...)

 

[thewrongvine]

Because teh damage is homing! Wee...

 

[Lord]

Hey guys!
Sry bout the late, but I've decided to make the beta a bit more advanced, and it takes a lot more time (u know interface, systems for all players, terraining, balancing, etc.). This project isn't dead or something, don't worry. I promise you you'll be satisfied with the product.

 

[Lord]

Here's an 'unofficial' beta. I don't really know if it works fine online, but I know it does leak! So... GL&HF!

Feedback welcomed!
