Search "iCCup" to play! ![[image loading]](http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/1921/sgarden10.jpg) Link to the image because TL seems to be acting up This map is going to be featured in quite a few future iCCup events! Features -Unbuildable Center (checkerboarded for creep tumors) -Easy to take natural and 3rd GO AND 12HATCH/14CC/14NEXUS MY FRIENDS! | ||

I'm not a big fan of your maps in general but this one looks really well done. Though you don't 14cc as Terran because of orbital and 14 hatch is better as Zerg. But I get the picture. What size is the map? | ||

Just a bit larger if possible, which is something I say a lot for sc2 maps they all just seem so small.. | ||

This is basically a Delta Quadrant without rocks(but the air distance for the top/bottom two is a LOT shorter. Ground distance looks nice though but any kind of dropship play (which I understand was popular on this map in BW) would be simply overwhelming. Just a bit larger if possible, which is something I say a lot for sc2 maps they all just seem so small.. Yeah, the map looks so small while God's Garden on BW was so massive. Are bigger maps not possible in sc2? | ||

Like divinity, it's too easy to take three bases early as Terran. Zerg have a harder time because of the rocks. Enigma has the expansions spaced too closely together. Fighting spirit is pretty unsightly to be honest. The gold expo in Fury looks a bit forced. I like Match Point though. | ||

I've found 140x140 to be a very standard size map if the 4 bases are in the corners. Enigma is 176x168 and it felt like it was about as big as a 1v1 map should ever be in testing, possibly even bigger. The distances from base to base on God's Garden have shown in testing to translate nicely so I think I'll leave it be for now On September 24 2010 21:17 neobowman wrote: Because most of them tend to have little flaws that really annoy me.

For example, the easy three bases on Divinity or the close expansions on Enigma or the gold on Fury. All of these are placed because I'm trying to find what features work and what features don't in SC2. ...and Fighting Spirit was my first map, what do you expect?  | ||

Im really up for experiemts and im doing at least in every of my maps too. And i have to say that some experiments are recognizabel as not working just by looking at the map. Also i think its the wrong approach to walk around say 'well, my map is imbalanced, but thats fine because its an experiment', but rather one should admit his errors, fix it and learn for the future. not meaning anything or anyone in particular here though. ------ i dont have any problem with you, but...

Fighting Spirit is a Legendary broodwar map created by Rose.of.Dream and nobody who claims its his deserves any respect.

And the community seems happy enough with it which is why I don't want to change anything, its proving to be a valuable testing platfform and id like to keep it that way. As far as experimental features go, the reason things like the IMS exist is to find what works and what doesn't, and in the meantime try to create good maps in the process | ||

Haha, I guess FS was, but I wouldn't mind you going back to it and rounding out the edges a bit. I don't have a problem with experimenting with stuff, but having expansions that close together is going to favour some races over others quite obviously. Maybe try reducing the minerals at each expansion when they're too close together. | ||

Blinn actually did it up in the beta, but it was tiny and didn't have room for creep tumors in the middle. He also used the Bel'Shir Tileset which at the time was baller as hell but now it's a passed trend imo. Aiur is so cool : D Anyway, I had already finished the beta version by the time I realized he had already finished it so the reasons why I pressed on are many 8) | ||
