Tropic of War

This is a 3rd person paintball map that i made over the past week. The basic elements of the gameplay are setup but there are no objectives yet. I may eventually make it a ctf of death match.
Features-
-team based. no ffa, though u still go for kills.
-detailed terrain. screenshot is included below.
-towers and tanks. you can use vehichles in combat.
-anti-camp feature. the reviving unit becomes invulnerable for a short amount of time.
-no leaderboard. leaderboards got in the way alot in Jungle Paintball.

I need feedback on the gameplay. So test it out on battlenet and give a response.

Edit: File fixed.

If you haven't downloaded this map yet, then do so now!
This is very fun, and the terrain pwns. :D :ggani:

bump

cool, gonna try it out :D .

EDIT:
Doesn't seem to work... warcraft doesn't see the map, and the world editor sais it is unable to load it.

DeSty-

Ditto (although I didn't try opening it in the WE)

same

I had that problem when I tried locking my map with ExtProtect. Is that what you used to protect your map?

No, i didnt protect it. Anyway it should work now, i updated the file. :D

Cool. I like. but I have 1 question and 1 suggestion.

Question: If a computer player is add do they Play? Or just stand there?

Suggestion: Lower the camera angle so that one can see further off in the distance.

EDIT: Disregard the question, already found my answer, they just stand around. And also found small (prolly easily fixable) problem. You can shoot a tank to take control of it AND NOT GET IN, therefor a player coud have an army of tanks if they ran around shooting all the tanks.

One way to fix this would be make a player 9, give it ownership of the tanks/towers and make it allied with all players. Then make the ownership change only if your unit gets in the tank. then a person wouldn't have to shoot the tank to get in it either because you are able to load into allied transports.

Use a multiboard for a leaderboard, you can close them (looks like the team rsc stuff when a player drops)

Hello

Here are some bugs I saw while playing this game:
1. When I pressed unload while inside a tank, the camera did not recenter its focus to the marine. The camera is still focused on the tank.
2. I am able to attack marines, critters, and tanks when I use the tank. The description said that the tank is only able to attack towers yet I am able to do that.
3. I attacked a tank while I am within another tank. I switched tanks. When I attacked the tank I was in before, I am able to control the two tanks.


It was a good map though. It gave me some ideas on a game I am trying to make :gsmile:

Seems quite rushed, Zurg. I think you need to consider the gameplay more than terrain :////

Well, I give this a 6.5/10. I have to be honest, if you put a bit more effort on the gameplay, it would be damn good. Angle of attack should be like 340, 'cause I want to see the horizon too.

i said it wasnt finished. i got the basic elemts of the game down, i just need wanted to get your opinions on how it looks, what u thought of towers, etc.
