TerraTek Battlezone

Basically, its a battling kinda map.
4 Human players, although 2 will be fine. And 3, assuming you don't use the Team Modes.
In the game, you are a Dragoon. Mines spawn by you every few seconds. You are constantly being followed by a burrowed Lurker of your own.

You are constantly gaining Gas, and have 9 Spells that cost Gas, buildable at the Hatchery...
- Heal, 1100 Gas
- Hire Assassin, Creates DT, 550 Gas
- Mine Detector, Temporary Overlord over your Dragoon, 350 Gas
- Mortar, Temporary Tank for 1 Shot, 450 Gas
- Locator, Minimap Pings all Goons and the Hot Spot, 200 Gas
- Teleport, Warps you to one of 8 Set Points, 400 Gas
- Psycho Armor, Perma-sets shields to 100% for about 12 seconds, 650 Gas
- Fortify, Lays 15 Mines, 550 Gas
- Mineswipoer, Which steals all mines on the screen cenetered on your Goon, 900 Gas

Now, we battle with that stuff.
There are 6 modes in game...
- FFA, your standard Free For All. You choose the number of lives.
- Team Battle, P1+P2 vs P3+P4. You choose the number of lives. (again tongue.gif)
- Survival, Least amount of Deaths in 12 minutes wins.
- Team Survival, least deaths in 12 minutes wins.
- 2x Gas FFA, same as Free For All, but you get twice as much Gas.
- Hot Spot, player who spends the most time under a mobile "hot spot" wins. You get 0% Shields and no Gas while under the Hot Spot.

Current Version: Beta 0.10, Feb 20, 2004, 11:47 PM EST

95% of the things I publicly release are locked. crazy.gif

Anyway, here's the terrain. If it looks like my cat made it, that's because she did. blink.gif Edit: Replaced screenshot. Moved Start Locations out of the way. tongue.gif
I'll probably add some more high ground to the Northeast.

I deem this map suitable for public Beta. I'm currently putting it on SEN only, so consider yourselves lucky.

This version is Beta 0.06. Expect more versions soon (and the more British 0.07 version), and eventually a final.

Please test. Notify me of any and all bugs. Please give me feedback, comments, opinions, etc. Above all, enjoy.

Everything should be bugless for the most part, with exception of untested Team Modes. Even those might work, so go for it. blink.gif

Attachment is with the first post.

I played it online with one of my friends and so far so good. I haven't encountered any bugs and the map is just all around sweet. Very fun to play and my friend thought is was completely awesome. So very nice work Moose.

Beta 0.09 is out. Changes include invincibility of Larva, disabling of building morphs on the Spire and Hatchery, more mines for Fortify, increased Assassin attack, and some minor things. Map is with first post as usual.

I can sense a full non-beta version coming soon.

WR - What are the mines for? Harass players who retreat, attacker advantage. Vision. They kill Assassins. Overall insanity. Yeah. Whatever.

Thanks for your support, guys.

That map sounds awesome!
I might try it and look for bugs!
I can't wait 'till it's out.
When do you think the first official non-Beta release will be?

Gogo 1.10. There was a bug in Team Survival not allying Player 3 to Player 4 and vice versa, making it not really Team at all. blink.gif Eggs are invincible too, I forgot they go vincy once a Larva is told to build. Also added a brief How To Play once the map starts, well, not for Player 1. We assume he know what he doing.

UB - I have no idea. Once bug discovery slows down and I feel the map is read, it goes public. Until then, we wait.

New Version is with first post, as always.
