My problem is that I can make the stuff I just need someone to come up with like the objective of the map (ideas).

I'm Trying to make a map where almost everything is random so it doesn't get as boring (trees, towns, weather, quests, etc...).

The maps going to take place in a forest of course with a open landscape.

If that is the case, you can better join a project instead of starting one of your own.

But I don't want to. I want to make my own map my own way but I just need someone who can give me an idea for an ultmate object so that players have a reason for wanting to keep playing.

Didn't I mention in the FAQ that the creator should also bring an amount of (starting)ideas?
