I've decided to revamp Twisted Meadows to Sc2! I've never played Wc3, but I got a request in my map thread (which you can find here) to remake this map, and I would like some feedback on it. (how the terrain looks and stuff)
So if you could take a few minutes of your time, and check it out. =]
**Map is Published! Search for "Twisted Meadowss" and it will show up!**

Check out all my other maps, in my map thread, here!
Thanks! =]

don't like the layout tbh
|
nicely done, but i think this map favors zerg a little too much with that gold expansion, need to make it more vulnerable to tanks and collosi
|
looks like itd be very zerg favored. may be hard to move around large armies late game? but hey im no pro i dunno
|
Pretty neat. But since you have a map thread, shouldn't new maps be getting posted in there?
|
The expo routes are quite clearly Zerg favored but that might well be countered by the narrow nature of the map.
I think it would certainly be interesting to see how PvT and T/P mirrors play out when expanding towards the opponent isn't an option.

this was one of my favorite WC3 ladder maps
I don't think SC and WC3 would ideally use the same type of maps though due to creeps/merc camps/shops etc
|
yeah not a big fan of WC3 maps being ported to SC2, this port looks about as decent as it could be though
|
I think it looks real good, nice work.
|
it doesn't feel like twisted meadows tbh and also it looks like you can walk to corner expansions which changes everything
|

Thanks for all the feedback and such. And yes, you can walk to the back expansion, but that can change if necessary. And the gold expansion maybe mostly plain minerals, because the gold seems too close and easy to expand too.

One of my favourite maps from wc3... the only problem with SC2 is.. that map had alot of pressure in early-mid game to control the centre of the map, however, with no taverns or shops, there is no strategic advantage to that... maybe find something enticing to control that point?
|
I like how you start close to each other and move away instead of the standard starting far away and move closer together
|
Yeah, it was hard to find something in sc2 to be something small enough to fit in the center and have high value, so I'll I could think of was a watch tower, but I may put gold in the middle? but that'd be way too hard to defend.
|
It honestly looks good the way it is, and depending on how far that watch tower reaches (say if it hits the view of your backdoor rocks), it could be very valueable. If that map was included in the games 1v1 pool from the beginning I don't think anyone would complain to be honest. Good work, and keeps with the rough idea of WC3 as best as could be given the differences in games.

With the destructible rocks down, going through the middle is the quickest way to attack your opponent. Also the line-of-sight fog surrounding the watch tower (theoretically, if the watch tower radius exceeds the fog radius) means that the area will be very easy to defend and very hard to attack.
|
I think it looks like a cool map. Yea, it's a good zerg map, but it would make a pretty decent terran map, too, as you could block off the ramp to your natural and gold, and defend them pretty easily.
The backdoor does kind of suck, though. I'd probably end up vetoing it in ladder because of that.
|
There is a couple of things though, make the 3rds only accessible by air. And make that little path in between the starting area and the rocks unpassable (if it is in the first place, the little part in between them seperating the golds from the other guys starting minerals)
