Just updated it!
I've had a REALLY busy week and a half, I'm just working on Redemption now (check the thread in my sig.)

I need ideas from everyone! I'm thinking a 3rd base between a connection of two of the naturals, very very much like Gaia.

Any suggestion is a good suggestion, so hit me! :D~

EDIT: Seriously guys. Post anything. Keep bumping the thread at least

Natural should be on low ground, with destructible rock that allow widening of the choke.

Low ground main like medusa? Or double high ground main with high ground natural?

Really general suggestions coming from me, so I'm not really helpful
Hoping for a python.esque map coming out of this Will post more if I can think of any cool ideas.
really?

Why not make 1 pretty wide ramp but with 2 rocks that make the ramp more narrow so that the attacking player should take the rocks out or walk through a narrow choke, would make it really intresting to meet Terran there.

Edit: It doesnt even need to be a ramp, just a choke. But if it is a ramp it will be even more crucial to destroy them.

Sweeet this should be awesome. Liquid would be a pretty sick map name, unless someone thinks of a cooler one by the time you're done.

I don't know if this thread is still happening but I thought it was a good idea, so I'll add my 2 cents and bump.

To answer the poll question about the gold expos: I believe the rock situation really depends on the positioning of the gold expos. If the gold expos are closer to the outer edge of the map, I would be more inclined to make them blocked by rocks. If they are in the center of the map, and harder to claim and defend, then I would lean towards not having any blocking elements. Really, it all depends.

I would also like to find out the size of the map. For a 4 player map with mains, naturals, third expos for each player and gold expos (2?), it feels like the map will be quite large. Especially if we want an open middle area. Though, looking at your previous work, it looks like you do tend to make larger maps than the standard Blizzard ones.

On the subject of the third expo, I prefer one of two: (1) close but blocked by rocks or (2) having wide and/or multiple entrances.

I have an idea for a third like that.

You can make it high ground (higher ground than whatever the nat is on) and have a large-ish ramp facing towards the middle of the map, but then have a backdoor entrance going around behind it! DRs would be on each side behind the naturals.

I'm new to the forums and I was just checking out your map thread and saw a link to this. Thought it was a good idea so I wanted to contribute. I may post some of my work up soon.

Edit: Also, I don't see a pony in devotion!

no backdoor rocks!

also some mineral only expos would be cool, not enough of those in sc2 imo. Maps in BW were good when you had to choose between a hard to hold gas 3rd or a mineral only easy to take third

Some possible suggestions:
No destructible rocks besides for covering the gold minerals.

The four mainbases should be two cliff heights up. Naturals should be one cliffheight up. Middle area should be normal cliff height.

However, in the middle, there should be drawn the outlines of a pony (or horse) in one cliff height up. It shouldn't be too big. And you copy it, it so that there are two symmetrical horses in the middle, rotated so that it fits with map symmetry. It would be cool if there were Xel'Naga tower near their heads.

We need bridges! Functioning bridges. With water beneath them.

Just chokes and ramps on every single map is pretty boring but I believe there isn't a functioning temple-style bridge in the editor. Just tested the mar sara bridges and they are pretty weird (the diagonal weren't working for me at all).

Well, a map can't be good if it's made of myriad of suggestions made from 9743618 people. :/

Sure, if we took every idea, it would probably be a mess. It's up to whoever is making the map to cull them down. Whatever comes of this, I'd like to hear everyone's opinions on what they think makes a good map. I'm hoping to at least get some insight into what features people want to see. We may not even see a map from this, but I think it's a good discussion to have.
