The First Assault Information

[Sim]

> but how does this in any way qualify for its own forum?

Well:

> [Author] who had initiative

I must insist on that. Initiative. Who ever asked us for a forum? Nobody recently.

> who probably deserves it more.

But he never asked.

> all that really means is "he's friends with people in high places"

He's the only one who asked recently.

Anyways, this topic is about the map itself. Please keep such comments elsewhere.

 

[Oninuva]

Thanks for the support Daxtreme.

 

[Kenoriga]

Could you find some other model instead of Circle of Powers, because I feel that they look retarded in the middle of nowhere.

mhmm, I'll take that into thought. Thanks for the input.

Ooooh. Another AoS type map. Competition, competition, competition...

Can you explain more about the lanes?
What's the function of each one?
And morale, how does that work?

Control points huh. I never liked things like that, mainly because they took the focus of the map off the lanes, leaving all the players scrabbling for the bonuses in remote corners of the map rather than directing their energies at pushing.

Good idea about the supply convoys though, I like it a lot. Brings all the heroes together once in a while for a big battle. Also promotes good strategy and teamwork if done right.

I'm not sure about the creep captains, are they like the mercenaries of DoE, patrolling and defending the base? Or do they go out and fight with the creep waves? Either way, they can hardly be as good as the human players, even with awesome AI, and so they would serve only as a distraction wouldn't they? They can't take part in any kind of strategic manuever either.

Oh, and, in the screenshots, the buildings look funny, doesn't really fit the foresty theme. Unless you're switching them off of course, I know they're old screenshots.


Off topic: I've always wanted a forum for my own project some day, I hope these project forums receive some activity so they won't disappear.

That's where I would insist, too. Nice catch.

Depends where you place the control points. In Fields of Stained Snow (you don't need to know that), everything capturable is along the creep lanes and it works very well.

>"are they like the mercenaries of DoE"

You mean AotZ.


Yeah, those pink Draenei buildings don't fit at all.

What's "Morale"? What's a sepcial creep lane?

And like hulky, I can't see the other 4 lanes.

 

[Arcane]

Yeah, AotZ. Whoopsees.

1st thread

[w00t22]

ok .... What? What is 1st thread?

anctious

hmm... What? Again. Only thing i understood in the post was

 

[Magentix]

mhmm, I'll take that into thought. Thanks for the input.

You *should* look into that. Right now, it's a shame to see a well-terrained map lose its edge because of some wtf-is-this-doin'-here circles of power

 

[Oninuva]

What he means is, he would like to see this hosted on Northrened. (Europe?)

But, the game is not out yet, so he was mistaken.

 

[Oninuva]

Well heres what I'm gonna do. There going to be a structure where the control points are supposed to be that represents their bonus. (Scout tower for Line of Sight increase, etc).

For the weapon placements, you just walk near then and you can opperate them.

 

[Magentix]

Northrend. (Europe?).

Northrend = The kingdom ruled by the Great Magentix the Brave who Bravely ran away without bringing back a shrubbery, formerly known as Europe.

 

[Arcane]

You haven't answered all of the questions.

Can you explain more about the lanes?
What's the function of each one?
And morale, how does that work?
What about the mercenary captains, how do they work?

 

[duyen]

Spoiler tags won't show.

 

[Arcane]

Chaotic.
Confusing.
Irritating.
