Working on a little island hop map. 4 players right now on the corner islands with 2 gold mineral bases in the middle sharing a gas. There is also a third that is shared between either side. I also made a volcano

Red: Starting Position
Light Blue: Expansion
Yellow: High Yield
Green: Destructible Rocks
White: Watchtower
Dark Blue: LoS Blockers

Still a work in progress. Haven't touched the doodads much yet, and need to play test it a bit. It could potentially have some interesting strategic quirks. No download at the moment.

Would love any design suggestions before I move into too much detail work. Probably needs a better name.
Would you kindly?

uhhh, did you TRY to make this look like a vagina? I mean...it even has a clit...

I present my very first StarCraft II map, Rising Tides v1.0.

I'm new to map design so any feedback would be much appreciated. For those who would like to test the map, here is the download link:

Cool. Does it have rising tides? As in dynamic water levels? Anyways, it's an interesting map.

Beautiful map but unplayable. All you have to do is sit on the high cliff at middle and you own half the map. They even have to go around to get up ramp.

Wow, good job on rising tides.
Sure it probably has balance issues, but it actually looks like it might be a real-world island.

I don't want to have to search through all this, sorry I know I am lazy, but maybe someone can just help me.

Has anyone made a map that can support a ton of players? In the beta comps are set to "very easy" but I would like to play against computers with my friend. So to make the game challenging it has to be a ton of competitors, so the more players the map supports the better (I was hoping for 10+).

i called it reaper walls. if you can't see it, the wall around the sides of all the mains and the walls on the back are double high.

Hey guys, this is the first RTS map I've ever made so I'd really appreciate any comments/criticism!

Map is not complete but is very close, just needs a bit of playtesting before I make final changes. Also I have not chosen a title yet.

Blasted, that map is freaking sexy!

Id say widen the middle though since I dont like narrow middles, not being able to micro well and force fields being extra powerful isnt that appealing to me.

Nice map, really impressive for a first timer. I'd suggest calling this 'The Forge'. Looking forward to seeing more of your work, I've been particularly busy lately and cannot dedicate time to my maps. However I will have some more out soon.

Edit: Spoiler Pics lol.

wow, beautiful map.

if this need a change it would be in the center. That arc is gorgeous, but i would prefer to let some space to the players maneuver their units over there.

hmm... cant think anything else than cliche Inferno to name it. Other cliche options: Burning Hell, Demon's Lair, Bath of Lava, etc :/

Thanks for the comments! I do tend to agree that the middle should be bigger. I will most likely be changing it, however I'd like to play test it as is..hopefully the patch will arrive soon

Also, in the lava tileset map above, are there backdoor entrances between mains with two destructible rocks? If so I would probably remove those to prevent early cheesy games in close positions. If not, that map looks amazing!
good vibes only
