hi this forum was dedicated to all of you warcraft people!!! plz feel free to say what you dislike the most about world editior's maps.


by doing this, this may help world editiors make better maps and stop making the same old mistakes that they do over and over again.:D



:D:(:mad::banghead: What i dislike the most about most people's map is that its the same thing over and over again! they make a map from diffrent cadigories like tag , TD , loap , and others that i dont know the letters to.

What i beieve that people should try to do is make something more out of the box. like maby an interaction game like the DS dog or maby some classic board games like what that editor did with tettris. that awsome by the way :D

so what do you think?

NOTE: say what you feel and also say what you think would improve the problem becasue whats the point of saying a to a person and not telling them how to fix it :D

NOTE 2: veiwer discrition advised! , may break keyboard, may break hands, heads, and mind :D

I hate crappy tooltips.
I hate bugs. Leaks suck too.

I hate 3.999999mb maps loaded with models which are used like once. >.<

Will update this [or post again] when I think of more.
There are more =]

i'd say lack of originality, re-creation of maps, editage too!

m,aybe make something of your invention, like ''are u a retard'', tetris, art contest, these are filled with originality.

Make un-seen b4 games, not these DotA editors (but some are good, like dota heroes, more i can't name), remake of some Ultra known TD's.

Try to malax between 2 map, like TD + Hero Def, Aos and mini games, etc...

get the point?

Dont Forget Battle Trains Don. :)

Polish:

No I think the reason is most games aren't very well polished.
And people try to make these large games that function 100% but just haven't spent the
time it needs to have a edge compared to other games.Like A current game i
am working on is basically done. But its boring...and a bit hard to learn
(takes 5 min), so i am gonna have to spend alot of time spicing it up.
Other wise people seem to just play the the most polished map of that type out there.


Standing On its Own:

I think its fine if people still make tds as long as they have enough of a twist to it,
to feel its , its own game. (P.S i never liked tds very much...)


Just doesn't Fan out:

Also Some maps were doomed from the start.
Some games just don't make it because of things you don't see till too late.
Like Tetris could be a fun multiplayer game online, but towards the end of the
project i realized the key bored input is too slow (Online at least). So it sorta
killed the chance of the game becoming big, and really fun.

As For Leeks:

Most of my games leek (did i say that out loud?!) partly because i just learning what they are.
But the games only have a few units in them.(less then 200) So theres no notable lag. So depends on the game.

-----And Most important.....Does it have The words Chuck Norris in the title?------

About are you a retard, I really dislike people who create their own version of an already existing map. Like I've seen several version of are you a retard, but different author. I think they should at least rename it or using another tileset to show that it's their map.

Also I dislike imbalance maps.. For example Angel Arena, it's a great map and I used to play it before. But later it got annoying with heroes that attacks 5 times a second and got 100% bash.

I hate maps that don't tell me what to do, or does it crappily. I also don't like maps with repeated gameplay.

I don't mind crappily coded maps though, as long as it does not hinders gameplay.

Ahh.. thats another thing.

The game starts, and you have a hero and a huge unexplored map.
Player 1 is some foriegn non-english-speaking person who doesn't explain anything and just runs off.

Then you die a few minutes later. You didn't know what to do.

I dislike maps which are not balanced. It's like every time you play, one player or group of players will, due to imbalance, will always win, not matter what.

new cadegory and gameplay for warcraft

lol nice posts everyone! so... lets try to be cunstructive now instead of destructive!



Knowing that games are mostly repeated in warcraft and outside of warcraft, lets try to think of a new idea for games, like a new cadegory and a new type of gameplay. got any ideas? its hard i know but try it! make this a '' i cant sleep because im thinking of this post question'' :D


My idea: new warcraft cadegory: ZT = zoo tycoon. gameplay: something like that fish aquerium game called aquamerine or something found in some websites.


well ill think of more ideas... yawn.... time for bed ;)

zoo tycoon is a pc game where you ubild your own zoofill it with animals etc. The "fish aquerium" game your thinking of i think is insaniquarium where you grow your fish and kill aliens that come at random times.

    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
