Hello, all. My name is CrAcK-hEd...

I have these three maps sitting around on my hard drive that I made about four years ago... I've been too lazy to share them until now, and I hope you like them. And if you don't like them, I hope I have the patience to weather your torrent of flame.

These are all 96 x 96 4-player maps, Mostly because my attention span is goes about as far as OMG! this smiley needs to chill: ranting.gif

These are all the Obs versions, I just finished uploading the regular ones to the ULDB, I'll add links when/if they become listed. Naturally, I'd appreciate whatever feedback you have.

Edit: The maps are 96 x 96. I cant imagine how I mixed that up. Also, Links to databased files: (Bloodlust)(Temple of the Sun God)(Dominance II)

I just approved them all to the DLDB and I moved the Temple of the Sun God to the Pro section of the DLDB.

DominaceII is pretty good and it's quite balanced but the problem is that players have a different amount of ramps and entrances leading to their bases.

Temple of the Sun God is pretty good, it's balanced and it has some pretty good strategy into it.

Bloodlust is also pretty goos but some players have more initial starting space than others mainly because of that cliff in the way.

Thanks for the comments happy.gif

I agree with all your points, Keg, and I'll try and see if I can fix those.

Wow..Nice...I like the temple map...It's a good map for those pro's...Instead of those gay fast maps.

I love Dominance II's concept. It's just so unbalanced, though...

Sun God looks totally fine to me.

Bloodlust too. Though a bit simple. Still very good.


Good job!

i think that Sun God has some very big balance issues. 2 o'clock's choke is bigger than the others i think. seems like a Terran map. small middle makes it imbalanced tvp. While zerg cant really fast expo to natural vs terran, small and long choke promotes bbs build and rush. So zerg is forced to make first hatch at choke. very easy for terran to expand by just building command venter on cliff. and i think that red can hit the expo to the right, while it cant be done anywhere else. Hopefully you consider this constructive critism.

dominance 2: it looks like everyplayer can get bombarded by tanks except for blue, The expansions on the right side of the map are far larger than the left. Like Chris said (lol my name is chris too) its a great concept, but unbalanced. its ok, 5/10

Bloodlust: nice map overall, pretty balanced, some minor tweaks could be made,
like the expansion in the middle, its towards the top of the map, if you dont want to move it make another below it. 7/10

Temple of the Sungod: i saved the best for last, this map is really cool, its balanced nice expansions, and i like just like the flow off it. you couldnt have done much better than you already did on this map except for maybe one of the bases is a little bigger, but not much of a problem. THis map is really fun i even downloaded it, good job on this map. 9/10
