Re: Build A World Map Making Contest!
So far all the ground is flat, will there be penalty points for having flat ground ? :D Well, there wont be penalty points but you certainly wont score as well. :P Best example is to look outside for inspiration. The world isn't flat unless you're in a city. Making a city map that is flat would be fine, but grassy landscapes and forests always have rolling hills and valleys. December 21, 2016, 07:48:19 pm |

Re: Build A World Map Making Contest!
I heard players hate snow maps in normal melee. Does it also apply here at FFA? Or am I allowed to make a map based on Icecrown? That stigma does exist, but I don't think its a tileset problem. More of an issue with a lack of good snow maps. Savage Storm is the only Icecrown map we play on and its a love it or hate it type map. The creeps on the tileset are really tough, I would recommend using ones from Lordearon Winter if you do an Icecrown map. December 26, 2016, 08:37:30 am |

Re: Build A World Map Making Contest!
Thank you for your explanation and suggestion. Yea, I found creeps at Icecrown to have extra Hps. As far as I remember lv6 polar bear has 1200hp, which is really really tough.I heard players hate snow maps in normal melee. Does it also apply here at FFA? Or am I allowed to make a map based on Icecrown? Good questions! In solo they like the bases as close as physically possible. They wanted really short games so echo isles clones became rampant and the Twisted Meadows type maps went away. I personally don't feel that that was the way the game was meant to be played, its just how the game evolved over time. In FFA, we like the old starcraft "no rush 20" type of play. No hero harassment or tower rushes in our games. We play with big ass armies and stacked heroes. This generally means that bases farther apart is the norm. --- Second question: We've been playing this game a long time. There really isn't any right or wrong type of map cause just having something fresh is going to be great. If I was going to say one type of map that we have a lack of, it would be the "Deathrose" type map. A 4 player map that is large enough to support FFA games. Deathrose is very unique in that regard. We modified Emerald Shores to fill as an alternative to it, but theres not much else. Blizzard actually made good 8 player maps. While I would definitely agree that we don't have a lot, the ones that we do have are very highly regarded in the community. Twlight Ruins, Deadlock, Market Square are all classics. Sanctuary, Battleground and a few others are also pretty solid. We don't really play 10 player maps in the league. It might have something to do with there not being any to use though. Blizzard only made two and they are both garbage. Divide and Conquer is the only good 12 player map that blizzard made. We usually use the custom map Splatter as an alternative to it. That said, we only use 12 player maps in special events. December 26, 2016, 12:34:42 pm |

Re: Build A World Map Making Contest!
There will be a new option for contest map makers to have their map tested on the FFA Ladder Pool. Please make sure your map is tested before getting it added to the rotation as well. To get your map added to the pool, please do the following:
There will only be 4 slots at a time on the ladder for testing. Maps will be removed without warning by the ladder moderators (DV and Ugrilainen). We will do our best to allow maps to have sufficient testing before they are removed. Please allow time between your submission and approval for the bot as it may take a few days to process. If your map is already on the bot and it needs an update, please post a comment on the feedback thread with the new version. Thank you! Feedback Thread: http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=2583.new#new When contest is over, the winner will be in the permanent rotation of FFArena. Then DV and Ugrilainen will add two more that went far into the competition and think would suit ladder needs / with FML opinion being highly regarded. January 02, 2017, 09:59:07 am |

Re: Build A World Map Making Contest!
About to look at your map Cinderfire. Looks like a really unique design! --- My map is also ready to release! (6) Poison Well  (click to show/hide) Download: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/poison-well.291196/ I'm quite proud of it! I hope it plays as well with people as it has in my private tests with bots. January 09, 2017, 05:46:06 pm |

Re: S24 M53
Wow, Its like the four of you have never scheduled an FML game before. RKK is the only one who actually posted a schedule in here. Its round 5 guys, you should all know how to do this by now without admin interference. I don't see a single person saying a time that works for them so i'm just going to take the only other proposed time in this thread and use that. Game time will be Sunday 23CET.
