If you dont have winzip then how did YOU zip it to upload it at SEN?

I dont wanna ight so I dowloaded it...

OMG, this is a 4v4 top vs bottom Uber unbalanced, fastest map posible type map.

1- It may seem like a money map but there are only 3 1500 minerals patches per player.

2- The corner players can get more gas

3- No terrain at all basically

4-No effort

5-16 vespene geysers per base

6- I seems you are newb because you placed comand centers and hatcheries when your supposed to place ONLY start locations for the players in meele

7- I wont go on because you are probably new

He's not trying to be mean, he's just trying to help you make better maps. It might be good to read the guide posted here:

Good luck with your maps.

You ARE new right?

some pointers then.

1- Spen more time making terrain and placing doodads.

2-For me top vs bottom maps suck

3- place only 1 geysers on the players starting base

4- NEVER EVER do a map with mineral patches of 50 000

ADDITION:

Sorry for being mean wink.gif

Psycho Templar, calm down... he's new at mapping, not everyone makes awesome maps when they first start, they need time.

Bustblader, calm down, swearing and flaming other members is going to result in warning and other trouble from the admins/mods.

Okay, so here's my two cents to new map makers, get good at the game first so you know what you're doing, you don't need to be pro, as almost all map makers aren't but you should at least get good at playing pro league accepted maps. Don't say you're good if you play money maps =/ or much less understand the basic principals of a good economy.

Please everyone calm down, there is no need to be flaming him for the map he made, even if it is terrible as he must already understand through all those mean comments disgust.gif
We do not allow flames but we do allow constructive critisism. Like you can comment on parts he should improve, why does it "suck" so much? If you have no reasons, then you shouldn't be commenting at all!

So about your map:
1) It looks like people could play it but it is a bit large for a shared baes map.
2) Too many bases at one spot, if any one of them were Zerg, everyone else would be screwed.
3) Remember placing units on a map will not stay in melee.
4) Remember that selecting a race doesn't matter either.
5) People will have random start location and so they might end up attacking each other before the allying process begins.
6) I like the concept except it looks like you need to put some more effort into the map.
7) Look at some examples that others have posted, it might help wink.gif
8) Money maps aren't the greatest things to make pinch.gif
9) I think you may want to start off small (128x128 1v1 2v2) then go big like this. People generally like fancy terrain for strategy and doodads for micro.

Read the guide that voyager posted happy.gif

okey dokey i just was making a map in like 10 minutes so that i could have something to do so that is y it sucks

leagacy you have to realize that this map cant be played in melee, it has preplaced units, he didnt do a great job on this map, i dont like it, but i did not flame anyone.

But i do agree we should help him make it better,
try this, make a good amount of minerals for each player, spread out the start locations, take out the buildings and units, etc. Add doodads, use more kinds of terrain.

try making another melee map, but make one that has 2,3, or 4 players, make it and ffa and make expasions post it as you make it and i would be glad to help you along the way. cool1.gif Dont worry about one map, alot of people on this site like shitting on each other from time to time. do worry about it, no one means to be an ass hole.

You can play melee maps even if units are preplaced...

Even if you don't mean it, you shouldn't do it, because the person recieving it wouldn't know.

I meant it XD. I don't like people who lie, the only way to improve upon this map would be to tottally delete everything so there was no point in saying that... again, know the game before you try to make maps for it, seriously, some of these maps are sad... Your first map doesn't need to be very good, or even balanced for that matter, you just need to try a bunch of new things and somehow make it fit together. People just won't play maps that are almost duplicates of already boring maps... unless of course they play money maps, but they aren't people anyway XD.
