Overview:
[image loading]


New Map with the Drifas Tileset. The small highgrounds are not pathable, the third is far away but hard to break with the small entrance. third mineral wall at the maincliff so its harder for airplay.

The Overview looks kinda shitty but it looks good ingame^^

Have you tried changing the lighting? I think that might spruce things up a bit.

This looks really good, also the layout seems nice, but I am not sure about the middle expo, how about having a pathable high ground behind it? Since right now getting it seems pretty easy since it is the center of your expansions.

I actually quite like it as it is. It's a place where you can finally use siege units for what they're supposed to do (yeah I'm a mech player).

I also really like the third.

i like that the game is centered around the main attack path and later it opens up into 3 if the players want.
otherwise it would be a bit too open i think. its more like a feeling thing then actually anything gameplay related

Finally winter map with day-time. Glad that it's not a night winter. Great aesthetics and great design. Hope to see it in ladder

imo the aesthetics on Drifas were perfect, very well done indeed, so I don't mind seeing them used again. I'm also a fan of the layout. I like both options for a 3rd, but I might widen the ramp leading to the vertical 3rd, from the defender's side, if only by 1, but I like just about every element of the map. It seems to be driven less by a direct concept and more by fun, which I really like.

That 3rd is way too easy with walloff/forcefields. It should be even farther away and/or not against the main cliff if you want such a small choke. Or make it cliffable or something.

That third is extremely similar to the one on bloodmist. It's worked out so-so so far, it's hard to tell if people are tentative to take it or if it's actually hard. Of course the difference there is the 2nd option for the third is very different - an open yet much closer third that's a little vulnerable to harass from below.

Cool aesthetics as usual, except the roads look retarded (actually those roads look stupid on just about every map that has used them, other than maybe korhal floating island)

i think they spice up the rather dull naturetiles...but they look stupid on the overview indeed.

im not sure about the third aswell but i have no way to test it so it will stay like that

The mains seem quite large and with a lot of cliff edge, have you looked at how blink stalkers/reapers work with that?

It's a Tileset that Mereel stitched together on TPW Drifas Throne (2on2 Teamplay map).

Oh man that makes me groan, I want that map on ladder so bad. But the gold base needs rocks.

This counts as on topic since it's the same tileset, and therefore feedback by association. ^^
