I think something to note is not just the number of bases but also the way that the maps are set up. Myself and others have noted that some of the existing 8m maps do not transition well into 6m maps.

Which is why we're trying to develop new 6m maps from the ground up for the show matches, devolution probably being one.

One of the side benefits i'm really enjoying from 6m is the sense of our little community. I've had this game since launch, and this is the first time I recognize and regularily play with people outside my RL friends.

Because we're dedicated to this.

Dude, after that BS happened, and the general poor outcome for most of the Protoss at MLG, Im kinda over standard play.

So tired of seeing the same 1 base build (1-1-1) still handle most Tosses like a joke. Only reason to log onto SC2 anymore is for 6m/1hyg games.

Hey Ironman:

I definitely like the design, and the one very minor critique I'd offer is that a bit more variation in the terrain might make the map more visually appealing. Right now it's mostly bricks and sand, so perhaps an oasis in the middle or something like that? Aside from that very well set up; I particularly love the huge attack path through the middle that does NOT lead to the main base. :D I would love to play and cast games on it.

ironman, i think your map needs more expansions, 6 6m/1hyg expo's is like 4.5 normal expo's, but i don't think the 6th base can be taken, so it is just a bit less then 4 bases (w/o the gold - which is only minerals), which is really a few. I think 1-2 more bases would be cool.

Hey Guys, Been lurking TL from ages but this thread was such a blast than I had to create an account to support it !

I want to point out that you all seem to be more or less BW nostalgic, personaly, I never played this game but I played a lot of War3 and it seems that this (r)evolution can also bring some good War3 moves with the engagements becoming smaller, with each units becoming more and expensive and with the spells becoming more crucial.

I truly think that 6m can bring the better from the "two world".

keep going guys !

I think it might be nice to try different kinds of maps, not only the most extremely large maps.

terrans are so good at sitting on one base


IMO it's not a problem of the design of the terran race, which I think is closest to the ideal of BW out of all three races. Protoss is design wise a nightmare. How can you possibly make maps that encourage good game play when the warp in mechanic forces units that cant stack up in defence?

Rob Pardo's idea of the warp-in does imply some balancing issues, but the warp-in also does allow Protoss to produce units differently from terran. In the end, warp-in is maybe the lesser evil.
