Alright, I've been working on this map for about 6 months, and it still sucks. You can find the map here: http://www.angelfire.com/freak2/nagn...aprotected.w3x (I attached to my post just in case, whatever) Now, Here's a small description of the map: This is a First-person shooter map, based on the Point Blank arcade game. It has currently 15 mini-games. I plan to add more, but first I need to know why it sucks. I need suggestions, serious ones, I need criticism. I am willing to remove up to 5 levels, because I know a few of them suck. BADLY. Tell me what to remove and what to add. I have many, many more ideas for this map, but I need yours too. All right, criticise away. |

Wow, 31 views, and yet only 3 people voted. One of these three was me. Thanks for all your help, youve been very, very, very helpful. |

Dude this map is great, alittle blah in the eyecandy department but damn its fun. Why do you think it sucks btw? |

I agree, why do you think it sucks? I think it's a pretty original idea, and it's a great map. Anyway, don't worry about not many votes, usually in topics with 100 votes, you'll get 4-5 votes that aren't you (this is based on personal experience) |

I think it sucks because I've never seen it hosted, ever. I've hosted plenty of DL only games, but I yet have to see it hosted. I think people don't understand the point of the game. I should do an opening cinematic...Yeah, maybe I'll do one. |

Not to be a big jerk, but how could people NOT understand the point of the game? The game is "Click on stuff that you're told to click on." I think you're grossly underestimating the intelligence of people with this map. Eye candy aside, it's "Click on stuff" the game. Essentially, it's like Diablo - click and squish the bug, except you only get to use one mouse button. I'm afraid I can't offer you any useful critique on what levels are more awful than others; they're all variations on the same thing, and it's not a type of game I enjoy. If you could add *something* to it, like defending a moving target (a la Crossbow, an old school shooting game) as they move through a dangerous area, or, have it be a FPS and you can only shoot things within your field of vision (aka in an arc in front of you), with right clicking rotating you, that'd be *SOMETHING* more than "Click on stuff" |

Well, you're welcome! I'm never sure how people will take criticism, no matter how constructive - glad you took it for what it was - well intended. |

Well, click on stuff was always the best atari game ever! Anyways what you might like to try is adding some spoofer moves and such, while I'm not sure how good you are at trigger work, a command where you hit a key and your guy dash to the left or right would be pretty nifty. But really the idea of a first person shooter for wc3... scary... And alot of people on battle net either have 56k connection like myself, and lag to bad to host a map or they have firewalls... this is about 3/4's of the users on wc3 from what I've seen. |

Very cool game. i just see no potential. i find u as a map maker just like i was at first. you come up with cool games and very new and exciting ideas.. the one flaw is. most people play warcraft because of what warcraft really is. its not tanks driving around shooting things using mathimatics, its not hampsters dancing, moving turons, capturing flags, or clicking with your mouse. warcraft is for games like tower defences, lord of the ring games with heros and creative plans. there are 2 things in wc3 that are different than wc2. those are the 3d graphics and heros. with out those it would be just like wc2. besides the cool W.E. that lets u do every thing. uh that last 3 sentances were off topic but any how. yea i think it would be better if u came up with a new type of game not a new game. i dont know what u want to happen with this game but it sounds like to me that u want to get noticed with ur game or have a really popular game such as winter mauls or winterwarz games. those arent just games those are game types. a single game such as ur game wont make it that far. also not every one will like ur game and that is something u will have to except. a lot of people dont like games that other people love to death. and u need to reconise the people that like ur game not those people that dont like it. i dont know if this has help at all but i think it is a cool idea and i can see u are a very skilled map maker with all those triggers to get it to work. i have one personal question for u. do u like harry potter? because i am thinking of making a huge adventure harry potter map except for one thing. no one will play it for the above reasons. so for example for me to get out a harry potter game i will have to make an actuall game that i can sell or something like that. |

Not bad but here is my comments how to do it better: Make more types of games...just only click at this but dont click at this all the time. White and black sheeps was the best of click at this games and this game needs to be deleted or replaced: Click at the targets. It was just to select a big area with the mouse and get a random selected...it wasnt fun at all. You need something to dont click on in this case. Protect Paladin game rocked! I dont have very many ideas how to make a more fun game...hmm...I got an idea. Make a game with rain of fire-stone units. They fall down and you must hit them before they come to ground!!! |
