Do you intend to incorporate it into a "normal" melee map or is it just for shit and giggles? (making me think of, how about having rocks on the map that could be destroyed only by the laser drill?)

Can confirm, minions will spawn every 30 seconds in the main bases.

Trying to make a new style 3 player map with a choice of naturals. Thoughts? (starting bases are counter-clockwise, with a backdoor path to a free 6 min/1 gas base.)
map is 184x184, so pretty huge, though it is 3 player with air-blockers planned.

Edit- Also, this WIP

someone's been looking at freakling maps recently

edit: i like the layout 2 posts up. incidence looks like it'll work decently in sc2, if you're ok with having an easier than normal 3 base layout.

i don't think tar basin will work too well in its current configuration. first of all the rocks at the nat make the 3rd much harder for z than for t/p, although this can be fixed by moving them to the ramp in front of the 3rd (again, if you're ok with making the 3rd easier). also the map in general is very small, which isn't always a problem, but on a reflectionally symmetrical map like this, the bases get extremely close in the late game. overall i think this layout could possibly work but you should definitely expand it a little. having the mains so close might be broken, but afaik this hasn't been really tested since the scrap station/metalopolis era, so who knows? maybe add some in-main watchtowers to allow better preparation for drops?
vibeo gane,

Freakling, what would your feelings be on me using some of your concepts for my sc2 maps? I'm not talking direct ports, just concepts. I would give you some credit for the origional map of course.

Go ahead. I have a feeling that SC2 could use more odd-player maps. A lot more.


You got me

Did you notice the half bases on Incidence? I hoped that would avoid making 3 bases to easy. Don't think Tar will work either, unless I seriously change the concept around.

A 4-spawn 1v1 map similar to Crusader but with fewer gold bases (and more symmetry):

Obviously, there are some destructible rocks missing in those pictures. Can you guess where they are?

So I am new to map making. I just made my first map but I made it to spread out. Is there a way to make my map smaller without starting over? Thanks in advance

Copy pasting small sections and tidying by hand is your best option.

Don't worry, it's all good practice! Sometimes a redraft by hand is better anyway for getting your ideas out.

I don't like how restricting the terrain is especially in the center. Cross spawns would result in little army engagements, while vertical and horizontal would also be pretty stale and straight forward. I also don't think the the 3rd base setup will work like it did in Crusader, which was my favorite map of yours.

This is my first Starcraft 2 map submission online. It's all weird and different so you probably won't like it. I was intentionally trying to break out of the standard layout since that is the only kind of map designing I have interest in. The idea for this map is to have 4 ambiguous thirds, each with their pros and cons. I'm curious to know what people's reactions are to it.

SwedenTheKid, your last posted map certainly has an interesting layout. For some reason I find a map that is all walled in like that uncomfortable. I think you should use more elevation. I like the idea of a choice of naturals. For zerg the choice would be simple though. It seems like a zerg favoured map right now.
