@moskonia : what's the point of doing a 2 in 1 map if you deliberately split the map into two ? Just do two maps instead

The left side of the map is unplayable imo. You can take a 2nd base but you'll never get a third. Your potential vertical third is gonna get arrassed from behind and the other bases are too far away from the natural.

The right side of the map is a bit better. However the third looks like starstations third but this time there's an highground right in front of it.

Tl;dr : I don't think we will see anything else but 1 or 2 base play on this map.
rly ?

It's a 2v2 map, I might not have been clear on that.

I have received the following feedback on this map:
-5th is too far away
-4 bases is too easy
-Natural expansion has cannon spots + Show Spoiler +

Anything else I should focus on?

Holy turtle city, Batman. I guess this is cool if you're into huddling into a corner on more than enough resources to make multiple 200/200 death balls. Forget the 4th base, even 3 bases is ridiculously easy.

Hey guys, this is my first time posting on the forums (so sorry if I make any mistakes.)
The name of the map is Planet Exile, and it can be found on the North American server.
The playable bounds of this map are 162 x 148
Feel free to tell me what you think and some constructive criticism would be helpful.
Here's the link to the map as I was not able to upload the image properly.

Because backdoors are cool and safe expansions are boring:

@zergJared

I try to use aesthetics to help make the map more clear, so I'll develop different patterns for the high, mid, and lowground or for different thematic parts or for areas that "belong" to each player.

Doodads will change the shape of your map. They are still largely necessary. They can even be useful to help define your map in ways that cliffs and ramps cannot.

Regarding your attempt above, The large grey tiles, the small lighter tiles, and the darker blue tiles all fit together pretty well. Mixing up the direction of shapes like tetris pieces is a good strategy for these artificial types. However the mesh that is not square-aligned looks pretty bad next to those other three. You'll need to find a different way of transitioning (additionally I just don't like the texture very much, and that it's segmented and only exists in a small portion of the main.

General art/aesthetic principles apply. Try to balance things out, don't create too many distracting lines (since we're watching what happens on top of the map), etc.

Another one, with a similar idea:

Slightly concerned about proxies perhaps being too difficult to scout because both behind the low ground third and near the backdoor third would be good locations. Still, it should be about comparable to King Sejong Station in that regard.

Hi,

I am still struggling with my first map (a long time I haven't worked on it :-/
(134x134)

[image loading]

My two main concerns :
- I believe the 3rd is too safe (?)
- I find the 3 / 9 o'clock bases are a little bit useless

but maybe I'm wrong ; and I'm pretty sure there are a lot of other thing I do not see.
What do you think ?
Thanks for advices
