The Ultimate Showdown

[pheonixashes]

Don't double post.

And secondly, those ability names are good, but I'm looking for slightly more complicated spells.

 

[pheonixashes]

Bump and update:

Changes:
-Dungeon Master no longer has global spells, just a cripple, and a rejuvenation.
-Added the new taverns.
-Added gameplay mode details to the map.
-Multiple changes in terrain.
-Set regions for King of the Hill mode.

PM's coming soon! I just need to get everything in order.

 

[BANANAMAN]

Awsome. Do i get to beta test it when its done?

 

[Cheddar]

What is it you need to get in order again?

Anyways, I might be a bit sluggish this weekend, I have some acting class for a week, but I still will try to get to work on Half-Court Shot and Free Throw.

 

[pheonixashes]

Yes, you do get to beta test... map helpers get to Alpha-Test, and anyone involved with this gets to Beta Test.

I just needed to get a list of what I needed to be done written, so I can track changes and stuff I need later.

I got SOME abilities for Darth Vader:

Range: 1000 yrds


Perhaps too overpowered?
But its the basic idea. Hope you like it

 

[pheonixashes]

Innate is ok, I'll just remove the per level, as innate abilities are supposed to start out moderately good, then get weaker and weaker.

Death Star is a bit over-powered, I was thinking of more classic moves, like Force Push, Force Choke, Force Lightning, and add a new dimension to those, for example:

Force Lightning is simply a regular Forked Lightning, except it will knock back and slow every unit it hits.


And such.

The Emperor's Will is a bit blandish... but other than that, it's pretty good.

 

[Monsterous]

What heroes must need to be done?
I can help with triggers if need be.

 

[pheonixashes]

Cheddar is working on Shaq's abilities, and I've already got Bat-Grenades down... so you can either work on Batman or Godzilla, I'm alpha balancing Aaron Carter's moves right now.

Theres my idea for BATMAN (du du du-du du DU dudu) and so on...

 

[Rheias]

Nice ideas there.

Sorry if I forgot to mention it, I'm up to make spells as well if any help needed with that.

 

[pheonixashes]

I meant Monsterous, the abilities I needed making; you'll see Batman's abilities posted a while back.

I need abilities on anyone that doesn't have the (Abilities Concieved) tag on the first post.


Rheias, I've seen it.

Rheias (Again), ok.

 

[Monsterous]

Im doing Batmans Costume Change. Shouldnt be to hard.
Ill edit this post when its done

 

[pheonixashes]

You mean Flash Change? Just to clarify, I've already got Batman's abilities balanced a bit, and I don't want to do it again. ^_^.

 

[Monsterous]

Arghhhhhh ive just done it
Ill post it anyway and see what you think of it

(What other's must be done that YOU or ANYONE has not done? That way ill get the right spell )

 

[BANANAMAN]

Leather jacket-makes u look cool adds 5 inteligence
Nike shoes-adds 40% speed

i may not post in the project for awhile due to school and shiz like that

 

[Cheddar]

All right, changelog for so far. Sorry I haven't been active for a bit.

Innate -- Not started yet. I still have to get over that facing angle obstacle. I'll most likely post something in the World Editor Help Zone.

Sidestep -- Well, I changed it into a simple Blink Strike. The icon is Healing Wave, if you have a better suggestion then please say so. I might add some art later.

Free Throw -- At first, it was working okay except for it asn't always accurate. Setting up a test to detect distance between start and end of the ability, it usually was a random number between 350 and 610, which wasn't going to work out. Finally, after a while, I began changing flying heights, and that appeared to impact the distance. Still not able to find some magic formula, I just decided to slip in a small tooltip that said Shaq isn't all that good at shooting Free Throws. Sometimes words have good power :shades: . It also has a Kaboom! icon. And I need to make it pause units, though that is easy.

Rebound -- Well, I have managed to make it happen, though one small problem is that it won't always be accurate. Setting all ranged units' Point Values to the arc of their shots, and their attack missle speeds to one constant value would drastically help it become accurate. Other than that, a Fragmentation Shards icon, Spiked Barricades art for Shaq, and Firelord Missiles for basketballs. It actually looks decent unless you use Sidestep at the same time it triggers.

Half-Court-Shot -- Not started yet. I'll try to get to work on it today.

Slam Dunk -- Instantly, I could see that this skill was far, far, faaaar too imbalanced. A 90% slow for 15 seconds easily means nobody can escape from Shaq, and they cannot fight either. I changed it to slow for 3 seconds (Don't worry, the stun takes precedence over the slow). After fixing a small bug where Shaq propells himself an infinite amount of distance behind him (whoops) I fixed it, speeding up at first and then slowing down as he reaches his target. I still found that a 500 AoE is a giant AoE, so I edited it to a 250/300/350 AoE so not everything is utterly destroyed.

So now, as a small... thing, I'm going to create 3 barracks spawning stuff, like a tiny AoS arena, only with no way out. Unless you manage to Free Throw something out and then Sidestep/Slam Dunk it.

Anyways, that's the progress, if you want the map, just ask.

 

[Monsterous]

I cant think of anymore
If i think of something ill edit this OR if you think of something

 

[pheonixashes]

To Cheddar:

For the Sidestep: You mean he simply blinks up and hits the unit? That's ok, I guess, though I'd like if there was some offset.

For the Rebound: You don't have to exact the missle arcs and such.

For the Free Throw: Random numbers are good, thanks.

For the Slam Dunk: Change the slow to 25%/30%/35%, that might help. I want to keep slow at at least 10 seconds.

Also, Shaq attacks approximately 1 time per second at max level, so it shouldn't be too bad for the Slam Dunk thing. Plus, most heroes will easily be able to counter it; Batman with his Bat-Bolas or Batarang, Aaron Carter with his meat shield of Fangirls and his Bounce attack, or Godzilla with his multiple stunning nukes.

To Monsterous 1: (Abilities Concieved) Tag means the abilities are thought of, so you can think of anything without that tag.

To Monsterous 2: I'd like everyone's abilities to be based off of their signature ACTIONS. Thanks though.
