Very nice, how'd you do this?
|
Which ladders is the Arid Waste map in?
I haven't seen it before in 1v1 and it doesn't seem very symmetrical to be a 2v2 map...
|
I can't believe they only added in one 1v1 map -_-
|
It wasn't too hard after the map editor came out all i did was go find out where the sc2 map files were stored which blizzard conveniently placed it under
AppData\Local\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net\Cache\
and shoved like 300 files in there all pretty much randomly named with no significance to say what is what.
but all i did was search for .s2ma (which is what the maps are called apparently not sc2map like you get out of the editor)
you can't open s2ma files so i just changed the extension it sc2map
opened it in the map editor and used the publish map image or w.e
some maps where missing 1 2 or 300 apparently doodads but i didn't see any visual issues.
blizzard really wants you to have fun with the maps lol freaking hidden like hell yo.

Yet it is a 2v2 map probably because of forced start locations at the top or bottom for teams sort of like twilight fortress.

It's actually pretty symmetrical if you look a bit better at the map, as far as SC2 maps go ;'d.

Those new 2v2 maps would make for sweet 1v1 play...

Cut the map in half. Each piece is the same. Its not mirrored.

Yeah they really should have added the new maps to 1v1 ladder, but I guess Blizz really want people to do more balance testing in 2v2...
|
It's a shame the spawns are sooooooooo close on the new 4player maps or we might've had some decent new 1v1 maps as well. 
|
Yeah these aren't even kulas/LT/meta type 4p maps they're specialist 2v2 maps where you'll probably spawn next to each other if you play 1v1, like twilight fortress.
Only Kulas left : / worst of the 4p maps.
|
The only changes to 1v1 that i noticed is the addition of destructible wall to the natural of scrap station, I would do a version comparison but the only way i can tell version difference is though the date the file was created and frankly without properly named files and they are just littered everywhere in folders with in folders etc blizzard really doesn't want me messing with it lol just all a pain in the ass.

Wow, thanks for these images. I've been looking high quality pictures for a long ass time.
|
With four different division in retail (1v1,2v2,3v3,4v4) I think we will start to see a lot more maps designed specifically for team play of a given size, and 1v1 play.

and its not even symmetrical, left spawn has a tighter choke at natural expansion (easier to defend)
