First of all I personally think making 4p maps with blocked spawns is pretty lame. Especially these 4p mirrored maps that are all more or less the same easy 5 base shit.

In this map I think the third is too hard and those very middle bases seem like winner bases considering all the ground you have to cover to hold them.

My biggest problem however with this is the insane amount of wasted space on the outside!

all good points well made. As no one was posting any I figured I would post a layout and since it was a community map we could work out the bumps together.

Rotate the map by 45 degrees and tell me the difference to the "use of space" on Ohana. Following your logic all maps would have to be squares.

Today I won´t have time but I will stream tomorrow at 6:00 CEST and try to make one of the posted concepts work.

Note that while OxyGenesis concept looks prettier it does not necessarily mean the product will be better. So vote for the map you think has more potential!

Though I think an accelerated composition of how the map is built from scratch will be quite awesome for a video, I feel the stream process is a tad slow. Even if you allow for feedback and really allow the community to 'help' with the process it will still be slow and possibly boring for most viewers.

However, I do believe that this kind of stream is absolutely perfect for helping people learn how to use the editor and all of it's functions, which is a very positive aspect of this idea.

Good luck with it.
Comparing BW with SCII is like comparing a beautiful three-master sailing ship with a modern battlecruiser. Both are beautiful in their own way, both perform the same task, but they are worlds apart in how they are built and how they are steered.

Seems like I am having internet problems. I will continue if I can fix them.

Making somebody else concept into a map is harder than I thought.
