I must say, this game is pretty sexy.
If you want, I could make you Models, which are especially made for this Game.

Please tell me, if you need something.
Just request it :p

The Terrain is Good, no doubt, but these Blizzard Cliffs looks kinda ugly... I personally like to use rise/lower/plateu/smoothen/etc. tools, they make good cliffs :)

What's AoD? Because yesterday when I was scrolling through B.net games, I saw a game being hosted called AoD but I forgot what the name was. Could it have been the same?

This seems cool but I have an objection to what you said in your first post, "your favorite green being". My friend is a green vine and I like him more. But you are second. :p

J/K! You probably all think I'm crazy now... :nuts:

From the screenshots provided, the terrain looks pretty good as well as the doodads and things. I'm gonna' go try it later after I do my HW.
GOOD JOB AND GOOD LUCK EMJLR3!!

(I just discovered something: LJ! See it connects!)

I only played it once in singleplayer now, and seemed to be nice. One question yet, why must the units have very low damage but high attack speed? If at least they don't have flashy missiles (they are not too flashy, but still a bit).

Aeon of Dominion, if you check my profile you can find a link to it. Have not seen it hosted very much myself, only a time or two, pretty neat game though I thought, some people really liked it

it was just something different to add to ranged units to make them a bit unique, if you think they are flashy now, you should have seen them before, lol :)

look at the difference between beta1 and beta2 in their missile models :)

Well we tested again yesterday, all I think it needs is:

Essential

  • Allow multiple ppl to pick same Hero at once, during Hero Selection. 12 ppl +6 Heroes can be very frustating.
  • Add more Heroes, pretty obvious one, but just dont stop now, when the map is finally starting to become so awesome.
  • The creep layout is a bit dodgy on the top left, Im speaking about the top left beacon, whenever the top team walk to the beacon from their base they get attacked by the creeps.
    Please move the creeps just above the beacon slightly to the left, to give a clearer path
  • A few more items would be great, just like AoD1, 1 or 2 secret shops around the map would be great.

Extras

Lastly, I preferred the AoD1 attribute system, it was just alot easier & smoother.
I believe it was something like this?
- Taking damage gives you +strength
- Attacking gives you +agility
- Casting Spells gives you +int

I personally find constantly having to distribute attribute points more of an annoyance than a blessing.
So please re-install the old system :p

  • its only 10 players, but yes I agree, I need to work on that hero selection, weren't you posed to help me with that???
  • more heroes, no shit, blurg, they are so damned time consuming in this map heh, and its so hard to come up with something unique....
  • ill check into this creep problem
  • more items, ofcourse, interested in trying to lend me a hand developing a new uber/upgraded/recipe item system??? I really wanted something different then, make a recipe and it transforms, or simply buying something new. AoD was neat because enemy heroes dropped glyphs, which allowed you to get uber items. it mad it a little more unique, and not as straight forward, but I dont think I would want to do the same things again
  • AoD's system was a bit more, self sufficient, there was no maintnance, I wanted to try this one out simply because it gave you more freedom, as opposed to needing to take damage to gain str., you just need to level, which all heroes can do, if you have a better idea, that isnt the AoD method, let me know

Ok, I finally got the time to test it, and it was as great as others said. Good job! :D

But I noticed something: everything is so beefed up. The range units (the ones with super speed and 6-9 damage) are kinda' imba. 2 of those can take a tower's health down like 1/10 each time. Maybe you could make it more damage and less speed or increase the health and armor of the towers.

Also, the panda was crazy! At rank 1 immolation-related skill could already do 64 dps because the other units were so beefed up that he lost all his health quickly. All I did was get myself to 200 health and run around enemies, creeps, and things and they all died in like 5 seconds. You should... maybe change the skill slightly.

Last thing, isn't the map a bit small? You can get across so quickly, it makes the game tend to end faster, even if the teams are balanced and fair.

Besides that, great job! I wanna' try to have a multiplayer game, maybe that's why everything seemed so rigged.

ending quick - that is sort of the idear :)

well, u have to attack for get attacked with panda for imo. to be helpful, ubering up creeps is one thing, when enemy heroes around, well thats anther entirely

i am thinking of lowering towers damage and upping their hp, they hurt, bad, but can fall easily if done correctly

Yea the small map size is what makes it good, nice & fast paced this way.

Looks like we'll need to start bashing out some Hero ideas then, or just check the gold mine that is the Dota site, assuming your still gonna add a few Heroes.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
