Map seems kinda basic to me. All 3x ramps is kinda dull. You just walk wherever you want and there aren't any strong control points or really out of the way places.

Shut up guys have you even seen that texturing?? is so BW-ish i love it! the map is really clean just like a real desert, Well, I think the aesthetics are a bit lazy. You can tell the texturing took a little time, and it's good, but then the doodads are pretty sparse and there's literally nothing on the low unpathable areas / outside areas, just plain land with light blue fog, which imo is a big no-no unless you make the fog thick enough that you can't see the ground. He should definitely add in some stuff. | ||

These days, I realize I'm losing my sense of 1vs1 map. So I'd like to make 1vs1 map from the very beginning. I hope you consider this side ![]() | ||

If you really want to use a name of that time sth like El Alamain would be (accordingly to the theme) more fitting ... | ||

But in good news, this is one of the best versions of BW desert tileset done in SC2 I think I've seen so far. And for the name I recommend Wüstenfuchs (Desert Fox) instead. | ||

source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf's_Lair Addition to understand the name origin: Although the standard name in English for Wolfsschanze is "Wolf's Lair", the German name does not actually mean this. Schanze is a term from military engineering and is best translated as "fortification" or "sconce". Kinda agree that there is no need to draw that association to WW2. Blizzard made an awesome lore to use and get names from. | ||

I'm not a huge fan of the layout as as people have said it's fairly generic, but I do prefer it to Daybreak tleast since the third isn't right on top of the nat. This map personally reminds me a heck of a lot of Match Point which was my favourite map. | ||

Generic in every way, with all the bells and whistles we've come to expect. I don't care if the metagame plays out a bit differently, can we start doing things a little differently? Edit: The map is perfectly fine the way white bread is perfectly fine. We like white bread, but we already have white bread, can we get something else instead? Chill out, dude. Standard maps are the way they are for a reason, and they aren't going anywhere. I don't see anything wrong with getting different takes on standard maps every now and then. If we have to have standard maps in our map pools, and face it, we do, I'd rather get a new map than use Daybreak for eternity. So yeah, tone down the trash talk. The white bread analogy isn't something I'd have gone for either. | ||

I'll admit that concept is maybe a bit overused in Crux, but it's done well on this map nonetheless. ![]() | ||

Why don't you just go for Wolf Ridge? Easy fix :D | ||

After the swastika-broodwar-map clone, this one is now another step towards a very terfifying German "newspaper" report about SCII. Harher tone and therefore spoilered: + Show Spoiler + Give this map such a nickname is like glorifying the "cultural" heritage of one of the darkest eras of humanity. Even if you can't relate to what happened here (where I live) during that time, think about what such a name would cause. I don't really care if your map gets neglected/banned from every possible tournament or the blizzard arcade itself - No, I'd rather appreciate that. But I don't want such a stupidly named map to pave the way for dumber ones. To help you finding a better name, here are some of my ideas: *) Bel'Ovaliant is a bad and uncreative mapmaker who has to raise attention for his bad map by giving it horrendous names'-beach *) Shaku'Really, Ovaliant, think before using such terms'-plateau *) Steps of "Whatever dude, your map is bad anyways and will be forgotten soon, bye" edit: On April 16 2013 20:30 cythaze wrote: Probably tournament organizers would even add it BECAUSE of the name as it would cause attention and generate viewers from the german community.... Yes, because people watching tournaments because of a map with such a name is exactly, what the SC2 scene needs. I really always wanted to see GSL fans throwing trash-cans and beer bottles at the Korean police after every GSL tournament day. | ||

Ok, where in Austria do you exactly live where people are offended by a computer game map that´s called Wolfsschanze... Giving a map that name would cause nothing not a big political uproar and riots in the street lol. | ||

A suitable successor to Daybreak, all in all. Fixes a lot of flaws, uses space better. Not a fan of the aesthetics, but who cares? There should be more space at the 4ths. | ||
