Staredit Network

*NOTE*I dont know if there has already been a thread made about this topic. If so, delete this.

All these threads and replies seem to have tux and bolt in them. Both are like one of, if not, the best map makers around. Now i just wanna see some of yalls thoughts about these two legends. Who do u think is better (at anything: skill, maps, personality, etc)?

Btw i vote both

Just wondering, how the hell does this relates the general gaming? =/

lol yah this should be in garbage.

One is better then the other at something.

Both. I love both of their works.

>> Staredit.

I voted for Neither, just because i can!

I think that what makes Bolt and Omega so popular is that they both have their own unique style. You always know when you're playing a Tux or Bolt map, just because of the aesthetic feel. Sure, they're masters with triggers, but there are quite a few people who can claim that skill, as well. I think that what really sets them apart is their creativity. But they still aren't the only guys who can make that claim. I mean, look at SaltMan or even you, MilleniumArmy.

i vote both they pwned

Legends? It's just StarCraft, a 6yr OLD game, triggering isn't that hard unless you make it, and if you put alot of effort into it you wasted time. Just my opinion

I think they both have different skills that make them stand out. Tux, always appears with concepts never thought possible, and Bolt has a vast knowledge in creativity and is most helpful in the assistance forum... But I don't think you should compare the two like this. We all have our strong points, and even Bolt and Tux aren't good at everything.

I think (U)Bolt_Head is a better mapper. I mean, Tux's maps have their moments, but if we looked at an overall comparison I think Bolt is better.

Neither
I am so much cooler then them :/

Popularity of Mapwise, which basically is a fundamental aim of maps, Tux wins in the short run, but over time Bolt's would be the clear winner...

I agree with u that triggering isn't that hard. What REALLY makes it hard is how well u use what u know and that's what differentiates the difference between good map makers and great map makers.

I think i am .
I looked up to Tux and Bolt but I think in order for me to make a really good map. I should stop looking up, and see myself higher

I never really have seen any maps by Bolt... so i voted tuxedo!

I voted Tux cause I want him to have more confidence making A&O Saga.

... Bah, who gives a who better. Tuxedo has his own skills in making maps both make different types of maps. One is better in some areas while other is better in other stuff. So i cant choose, so i pick both.

Well, personally, I prefer Tuxedo's maps.

I saw Bolt's Lurker TRails and Reflector, and they were both really cool and neat, and Tuxedo seems a little obsessed with using Defilers+DarkSwarm(TriggerHappy, Photoshop Starcraft, Infininite range gun system, A&O, the Gunner Mode in Loony defense)... but Reflector was just odd and gets old quuuiiick, Lurker Trails was fun but not really very new(your unit spawns cloaked units that attack enemies when you move), while as Tux's maps... I dunno, I just like them so much more.

Both are great mappers.

I would be nice if they made a co-op proyect. Incorporate their 2 different styles of mapping into one. If they both put their part in it; it should be an outstanding map.
But then again, because of the different style the map might come out crappy because each did separate parts.

HAHAH mIRC "Tux: Hello, I make eite maps!" anyways i vote tux cause i haven't seen Bot's maps although Bolt helped me alot in maps. So mabye i should't vote at all unless there is a "I vote both" because I haven't really read the poll yet

God not another popularity contest. I vote neither because I've known map makers better than both of us (in their time, at least).

I hate how only the loudmouths get all the credit (even if I'm one of them).

Oh and he's modest too -.- Care to mention some that are more innovative or creative then yourself tux? and if you want a side project that would get popular on b-net easily using your dark swarm godness make "Duck Hunt" =) Might want to use corsairs tho, and definitely make it competitive. Just a thought, but thats the 2nd best NES game ever imho. If you havent played it ill get you some screens. (Legends of Zelda... hands down 1st)

I voted for both they both kick ass

Why would you even make a thread like this? True mappers dont map so that people can be like "Ohhh he makes this he's the best map maker around!" True map makers make them for the love of mapping, which I'm positive these two do. This is only trying to pit these two great minds against eachother, and that just isnt cool

Tux...yah I agree he is obsessed with his Defiler+Swarm trigger, but I am obseesed with playing it TOO!
So I vote for Tux.
So far I think my creativity is best around.
