you deserve an award for this map x3, such a cool idea. I want to play it and see it in tournaments. The middle is really interesting for leapfrogging your way forward.

I think it looks a bit tough for Zerg to get up to five bases. One solution is to make the fifth bases less ambiguous or harder to attack into, almost like an island so it can be defended with a couple units instead of a whole army- if players keep their whole army at the fifth, they'll be 10 seconds away from being able to kill the opponent's fourth. Also the middle base is kind of hard for P/Z to take, and since T is mineral starved, I'd prefer if it was only 5m 1hyg instead of 8m2g. The aesthetics are cool, but I think you should do more so it isn't mostly the tiny tiles.

Updated map kicks ass. Seriously, it is awesome.

I didn't change the third because of what you said haha xD It was too strong for siege tanks, zeros were dying a lot. I'm glad you like it though.

IMO the mineral placement on the two middle bases is awkward, if you are attacking into it from the sides your units first run into the gas geysers, I'm not sure if anything can be done about that though. The two watchtowers should not be on little high ground pods because of siege tanks being strong parked at them. I'm also kinda worried about sentry drops in the main - they will be strong like on metropolis because of that little bit of highground which is meant to be used to overlook the natural entrance; that bit is good for toss and terran but bad for zerg.

Very very nice map, unique and looks like a lot of fun.

I don't think so about the high ground watchtowers. They're inaccessible, but provides some good position, which I think it's fine
Has been some sentry drops into mains, but many failed. In mapper's monthly there has been one. I'll keep a lookout for it though. Being good for Toss terran is fine I think.

Hmm the central base is alright to take. I guess the other 4th could be made closer. I'll look into it.
I don't know about 5m hyg idea. Maybe I can open it up to make up for the 8m2g.

None yet, I guess if it gets into a tournament. There's the mapper's monthly though, there's one game on it, but it's old version.

haha that is spot on.

This is my fave of your maps Semmo, except for maybe hextower. Layout-wise it looks really solid, I don't have much to say. Aesthetics-wise, right now it feels like a concept (a very cool concept) but I would like it to feel more like a setting in the starcraft universe. I don't think much would need to be changed, maybe just a control panel here and there, some more stuff around the borders, would give the whole thing more context imo.

Looks beautiful. I can't speak of balance and play itself, but the tileset and overall design is gorgeous.

Hehe, Hextower
hmm. I was going for a virtual look so that it isn't a part of anywhere, but maybe that's a good idea.

I can't comment much from a balance side but the visuals in game are superb. I love the steps going down the ramp.

The middle is open (good for battles) and the natural is ok to defend. After that, I think the expansions are a little hard to defend (for any race) because they are so open, no choke points to wall off.

Edit: One other thing, just played this with a friend and he said the name makes it sound like it's not a normal battle map! He said it'd be better if it were called Virtual Land as it sounds more like a battle map.

There ya go!
