Title: Season 14 Map Pool Discussion!
Post by: FML|WorpeX on August 22, 2012, 05:31:23 pm
In Season 14, there will only be a 6 map pool. With that said, we're going to be trimming the fat this season and taking away some unnecessary maps! EVERY MAP will be used in the upcoming season, with no exceptions!

So, with that said there will only be two maps automatically added into the S14 map pool: Market Square and Death Rose.

:Market_Square2: :DeathRose2:

The rest are up to you! Vote for the 4 other maps you'd like to see added here and discuss it in this forum!

6 maps, 6 rounds, meaning 4 rounds and semi + final, 3 rounds and quarter, semi, final, or 5 rounds and final.

since you picked 2 I will go with first option and guess 4 rounds with semi and final.

Because deathrose is a guaranteed, low probability of it being a 5 player + season.   hmm

Andorhal is a great map and a special one which is my favorite and worth a risk "Islands". A 4 player map with ships and teleports leading to the middle where you find a tavern,market place and merc camp (ships have 1500 hp with heavy armor).

Please no deadlock, no thunder lake and harvest.

Voted for:

Silverpine Forest
Twilight Ruins
Deadlock (if not Deadlock, Monsoon)
Other (Sanctuary)

Sanctuary is a big map made for 8 players.  It is a very good FFA map even though it is not listed for FFA.  Especially with 4 players.  There are multiple mines and everything else needed for a quality FFA game.  I think this season should have 1 special map and this should be it this season.  I am sure Maga would vouch for this map also as we have had many good custom games on it along with other people.  Give it a look.

Are we going to vote for maps and Worpex will decide to take one out that had enough votes at the last minute like SAVAGE STORM last season?

So I tried to see how hard it would be to create a custom map.

Managed to randomly change the color and name of every player
Added a little leader-board visible to to obs to say who is who

Problems:
1)Ally menu still shows the player in the same order (different names)
2)We see the race chosen @ the start
3)We don't know what player has what race (since his name/color changed)

Solutions:
for 1 I don't really want to disable that menu since I use it to see who left the game... but w/e I could do w/o if it was for anon game
2 and 3 sort of balance each other out imo
