(2) Crux Baskerville

Created by Ovalient

Playable 160 x 160

The designation of "Baskerville" is brought from BBC SHERLOCK

I'm never confident that I write correct grammer...

I'm going to be honest with you...I find enjoyment in people having trouble with English, haha. But your phrasing is correct.

If you want it to look natural, replace it with this:

The name "Baskerville" is from the BBC Sherlock series


Nice map though. I love the Main-nat-3rd layout, along with the choices of 4ths based on spawn position. The middle is open enough that I feel pretty comfrotable engaging in a lot of places as a zerg player.

EDIT: You korean map makers should get an english editor for your posts. Not that people mind your phrasing (like I said, it's pretty entertaining in a good way), but if you want it to be amazing, I'm sure a lot of people around here wouldn't mind helping you make up a perfect post in english before you post it. It's up to you guys though.
A lesson without pain is meaningless for nothing can be gained without giving something in return.

I love the map ! The base layout is awesome ! I would love to play see it on the ladder or in tournament. I really think it's a great map for interesting game play !

This map just comes across as another standard rotational four player map, of which we already have tons of. Hell, not even the middle is interesting. I mean, it seems to be a solid map, but it's nothing great.

Well done 4p map with a clean style. I'm liking what Crux has been putting out. This map, however, seems a little redundant with a lot of the maps we've seen recently. It'll play great, no doubt, but it would be been cooler to have a year ago! :D

I think that there will be some pretty big positional imbalances if this is all spawns. It also looks like tanks can seige the third/fourth from the main base.

As much as this is a carbon copy of the same idea, let's be honest, when Crux does it people complain about yet another typical Crux map, when a foreign mapmaker would have made this people would love it.

It's a pretty map, and I love the name, but that third is really easy to take. I wouldn't mind this so much if the actual map wasn't so small. That's a pretty short walk to the enemy base.
EDIT: To clarify, I think this map doesn't really know what it wants to be. It doesn't have any direction, nor does it promote innovation, plus the tileset is a commonly used one that is hard to distinguish.

Haha I love the reference. :D

While this leans a little towards the "easy third" side of things, I really like it! The distances might be adjusted a little here and there but for now it looks just about right so the 3rd isn't too far forward but definitely feels a little out there, but fine for the anticlockwise player.

This reminds me of some of the more interesting 4p maps from long ago during motm with forward 3rd designs. Something that should definitely be revisited more often.

I do not see mention in the OP that this map is not forced cross spawn. Do i have to be the one to start the damn movement to force cross spawns on all 4p maps? Im lost how this just isn't standard yet. They are all pretty much instantly better and more balanced once this change is applied to them (take antiga for instance, still terrible but much better).

Although nothing terribly new, this still appears to be a map where good games undoubtedly will take place on terrain well 'groomed'.

Can you please start that movement now so we can end it quickly? The last thing this game needs is even less map variety.

Do you think balance is the only thing that a map needs? Why not just put two starting points back to back then?

Balance is just the foundation to a good map. Any map can be balanced through a series of adjustments, Blizzard just sucks at it. The community doesn't. A good map also includes a concept, innovation, uniqueness in my opinion. Forcing cross spawns makes a 4p map play like a badly designed 2 player map. If anything, 4p maps should be forced close and designed to play that way.

As i have posted in your duo map post about forced cross spawns i am going to favour that thread for any further discussion on this topic as there is another also weighing in his opinion. Unless Ovalient responds to me in particular in this thread...

Dude I just wrote out a response and you're basically asking me to write the same thing over again in another thread. I understand if you don't want to argue with me (because you know I'm right!) but it kinda ticks me off the the way you handled it.

I think it would be more interesting if you made the 4ths slightly closer, then changed the 3rds to 6m1hyg or 4m1g.. then you would have the option to take the riskier full base as your 3rd, or the safer partial base.
