Hey TL.



I have created an epic (in size) but simplistic 14 Player map and think, it would be fun to play. I know, it is not the most beautiful map, it is more a fun map. If you know a better 14 Player FFA map, let me know.

There are two versions of the Map. A FFA and a team version. The Versions are completly the same, with the Difference that in the Team version two bases share an entrence.

What do you think? If you like it, join the Channel "FFA" or "MeleeMapTesting", if you like to play. =)

Cool. I count 16 spots, I guess even with 14 players you would have 2 places that wouldn't have a player :-P

I can't imagine the insanity of a 14 player FFA or any of the other formats you listed lol

Looks like it could be fun to play with 10+ people, is it in arcade or custom games? Also I think it might be cool to have an option to observe the game after you die. If you're playing with friends and you get eliminated first it may not be so fun to have to wait 30+ minutes for the game to finish.

Then again if your playing a pub then some people may be sore losers and start giving information to certain players, so you would have to incorporate something in so players still in couldn't see their chat. Sorry if this sounds too complicated to do, just an idea I had to improve it.

I really like the middle of the map and the towers on the high ground, but I don't like the ones on the low ground that see the extra expansions outside your ramp. I also dislike how close the distance is between adjacent spawns. With 14 players (forced close spawns) you are required to play a completely degenerate opening like 6pool/forge/8depot. Also, why are there 16 spots if you only use 14 start locations? I know it's a simple map. But you might as well take out 3 and 9 or 12 and 6, and this way you could redraw the base outlines to make ramps farther away...

Anyway cool idea, we need more of these. ^^

Have you seen thunderdome btw?

The ditance is not that close. Also, I can't make it wider. The map has maximum size (inclusive cutting the borders).

I've created 16 bases for symmetrie. I have tried to make it with 14 start locations, but it did not solve the problem. Let's say, i remove 3 and 9. Than i have a bit more space for the vertical column of start locations. But the horizontal still suffer from the problem. :/ So i don't see improvement.

This looks extremely fun for 7v7!! O_o

The distances are so far away that you won't be able to defend the ally that's off the far side, should be fun.

But please work on aesthetics xD

I'm sorry but that is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. Like, almost as bad as Bifrost. Can you please at least texture it a little bit?

Hunh. It actually seems like it would be pretty fun to play on, esp. if you have 13 opponents!

Your mineral lines are non-standard. Also, I'm not against simple aesthetics but at least use more than 1 texture.

Tanks can be placed on a main to cover the flank of an opposing player, making this fun map kind of imbalanced. Colossi can do the same, I don't see this working out in that direction. On the other hand if this means agressive expansion is the only real strat to go, then that mid field gives zerg quite a big advantage.

Also, the corner entrances are too close together, that's kind of unfair for the people spawning there. And what do you do about the missing 2 player's spots? They are taken too easily as expansions for a lucky player, making this map more like a casino than a good FFA.

It's a lot harder than it looks to make something epic like Big Game Hunters
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.

I think it'd be better as 32 player FFA. You have to worker rush the guy in you base aww yeah :D

I don't think, any of it will be a big deal. Keep in mind, that every FFA is luck. As I remember BGH was imbalanced as hell, but it wasn't a problem.

I have update the original post, so I am giving the thread a bump.

There are now two versions of the map: A FFA and a Team version.

Also I want to note, that the channel "FFA" becomes slightly populated. We already played the map once, but with only 10 players. I would like to play it once again with 14 players and a caster, that I have a demo of the gameplay.
