Agreed, its so pretty

ADDITION:
its also so fun to play on

I know of another map, ill try and find it. Its so crazy, its beautiful. (sorry if that was a bad word choice, but i really couldnt think of anything else)

ADDITION:
Well i cant find it, but its in twilight and its a swirl type map, its really nice looking for twilight.

Oh another good looking map is Forte, its on space, its definately one of the best looking space maps.

Ya know that thread about mapdori that entropy posted? Hes put of his mind, Rose.of.Dream makes maps and posts them on that site, i dont think we can match them, and if we can, our maps wouldnt become famous.
(Ihatett that new jungle map you made is great, that could be pro)

Thanks. smile.gif

It took forever to decorate it. You can't see the trees in the image obviously, but it looks so nice in-game. At least I now know how to decorate, before I... let's just say my last three maps have looked like crap when they were released. smile.gif

I personally think that looks kinda ugly. There's too much stuff on it, especially in the waters.

But it's probably better than what i could do.

I love any Blizzard maps, I just like how they do there map's, And there style.

So if you want to see what I like, Just open a pre-made map by Blizzard.

I just recently looked back at some old blizzard maps in my folder and they all look... sorta plain when you compare them to nowadays "pro" melee maps, especially those on map dori.

I thought you said the mapdori ones are too cluttered...?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by MillenniumArmy on 2005-05-10 at 21:30:28
Well, when i look at Gaia, i just cant help the feeling of taking out a broomstick and just wiping all the "debris" off that map.

And no i dont recall ever saying that... if i did, ok i shall retract that thought happy.gif

Was what I was reffering to.

I agree that lot's of doodads, etc. can make it look nasty and cluttered, but they were used perfectly on this map. smile.gif

I myself, Like very decorated maps, Exspecially the PRO maps people make these days.

It gives the map a good feeling while you play on it.

Neo Forbidden Zone is also awesome.

So many great games have been played on that map, as well. It's too bad that p>t on that map.

The first posted one looks great... realistic.

In fact, most new pro maps look really nice. Luna the Final is excellent, for example.

ADDITION:
Mercury looks fantastic.

That mercury map must be a haven for Sieged Tanks. Just park em and blast enemies on the other sides since the space separating them is thin.

i hate blizzard maps. They are terrible, except for a select few, meaning lost temple and thats it.

Well your maps tend to be very plain, i like the realistic look rather than the plain ones, they give odd vibes to the players.

Not really, toss could drop zealots, or temps in the mid with no problem.

Im on the fence with how mercury looks, sometimes i like it, sometimes i dont.

Dunno what you're talking about. tongue.gif

Yenku, mercury is hell for protoss. Apperently pvz is impossible. and pvt it's really hard to stop any pushes with such small passageways (and expos along the paths). It's amazing that reach managed to beat oov on that map at all. O.O

Wow the first one looks rly good, but my friends would never play it. They only play fastest or Zero cutter games becuase they so used them

Because they are newbs. I would like to 1v1 one of them. They wont kill one building of mine. (no joke, if i try they really wont, even if i drag out the game)

Ladder-style players should all just whoop-down and fastest players for the fun of it. Ladder skill would probably cleanly crush someone who only plays ladders.

Who makes those maps above? Is it Blizzard-affiliated people, or tournament host-type people?
