Missed it. =\

Are you featured? I don't always check all the streamers. Definitely post again if you're streaming!

I think I'm actually going to go live in about 15 minutes! I'm not featured and I definitely don't have a schedule for this sort of thing. I'd like to be featured but from what I understand that's a weird process and I haven't spent enough time on the air to qualify yet.

Hey gonna do another map article soon, would love to show off the new maps, there seems to be about 5 new ones right now since the last article but I'm gonna do a big one when Blizzard releases they're scenario maps whenever that may be, also seems like Blizzard is getting ready to have some kind of map service soon but what that entails idk. If you want to give it a read it's @

http://www.gamereplays.org/starcraft2/portals.php?show=news&news_id=718026&home

Anyway the maps look great by the time another article rolls around I'm sure they'll be alot to show off, seems like some of the previous maps are getting tweaked too, looking foreward to maybe having some community maps in the offical pool that would be awsome.

I can't retain myself for enabling caps lock: WHEN IS GRAND LINE COMING OUT??? It looks awesome... Only thing I'm a bit suspicious about is the accessibility of any third gas expansions... But it's probably fine in 1v1.

Grand Line is too big. If there's a big demand, I could remake it into a smaller size.

What sort of big. Like exeeding the 10MB cap? Or like you have 5MB in use and it is like 9MB.
Or like 500x500 for a one player map?
And grand line really needs to be published :<

I'm pretty sure it's already on NA. But it's 144x144 size so I don't like it that much.

I think when we compare the unit movement clumsiness in BW to SC2, the 144x144 in SC2 translates roughly to 128x128 in BW... I still don't see why it's too big when people have been asking for bigger maps all the time...

blizzard is balancing the game for steppes.

144x144 can make cross metal look shortish.

Wtf why would people say 144x144 is too big? Just for clarification, these are the sizes of the Blizzard maps:

Lost Temple: 132x134
Kulas Ravine: 140x136
Metalopolis: 140x140
Shakuras Plateau: 156x128

Do these maps feel too big to anyone?

Keep in mind that Metal and Lost Temple are diagonally shaped. They're basically squares but turned 45 degrees to fit in another square. Kulas sucks balls so its size doesn't matter (actually, it's just because it's natural leads straight into the centre) and shakuras has a huge amount of space behind the mains and naturals.

Size isn't everything on its own. The problem with Grand Line was distances. It became a turtle fest because of the long rush distance, and closeness of expansions to the main. The map just doesn't work as it did in BW because of pathing and distances. It'd have to be reworked smaller, and had some adjusting with the center HY and 3rd mineral only.

Lost Temple and Metalopolis are squares withing squares:
[image loading]
Giving it an effective area of 132/sqrt(1^2 + 1^2) * 134/sqrt(1^2 + 1^2).
So lost temple would be 93x94. (Just an example it's obviously much larger than 93x94.)

Obviously this is just a over simplification but the area actually covered by LT is definitely closer to 128x128 than one would think. The same applies to metalopolis.

Kulas Ravines and Shakuras Plateau are very large in comparison. Kulas however is interesting because it features extremely long main to main distances yet extremely short nat to nat distances. This is because the nats extend directly towards the center of the map. Shakuras plateau offers naturals that extend slightly away from the center of the map so it feels larger. When looking at the actual image of the map one can see that not every inch of free space is used:

Compared to Grandline:

Where nearly all the space is used.

This just goes to show that map bounds don't show the whole picture.

Furthermore Grand Line is extremely open in the center which makes it feel like a larger map in general (python too).

I think the community as a whole is moving back towards smaller maps as they notice more and more zerg players are becoming comfortable with them and don't need the help of large maps to win.

With all that being said I fully support the publication of Grand Line so people can experience it and provide feedback.
