[sub]This was accually going to be a 4 player map, but I kinda ran out of room toward the top. Give me some feedback.

Pretty much think of this as a Divided Conflicts Two. I had that idea in mind when I made it, except it was going to be 4 players.[/sub]

with a few corrections this map can be really nice.

First of make sure to decide how you want the chokes to be blocked, and then make them even. as it is now i think it is the right pos which have a bigger choke.
When not using ramps as chokes, make sure they are quite small since that will give protoss a chance to defend it vs zerg.

Second, the symmetry. The map tends to lean i little bit to the right which hurts my eye a bit

The center has enough space to be constructed in a way that gives more emphasis on strategy. perhaps more trees and such to hide under. A symetrical design will also recieve better response from the random shallow player

lastly the expos, the first exp is not bad, but it wil be very hard for zerg to defend good on 2 fronts. Perhaps add a little expansion at the first choke in the main base so z can fast exp there with some gain.
For other races the first exp will be cool in tactical points of view.

Also make the island a littl bigger so its not too easy securable.


Dont give up on this, it can be really nice

[sub]Map Updated

-Made chokes smaller
-Added expos outside mains
-Made island bigger


Theres already alot of trees in the center, the picture does not show dodads. And I don't feel like fixing the whole map to fix the slight symmetry issue, your eyes will have to deal with it. [/sub]

Reinstating the fact that this map and you have potential: Your maps are progressively getting better. This map while rough around the edges shows a bit of creativity and basic map making skills, and is a far cry from your first map.

The nat is wide open, hard to defend, and combined with a second entrance directly in to the main, it could be a bit hard to defend. Also work on the decorating. The doodads showed you tried, but it takes a combination of terrain, doodads, and creativity to map a map look pretty, not randomly placed doodads.

[sub]Take a look at the map in the editor, I personally think the terrian looks really good.

Eh, most people look at maps in the screen shot

Your terrain is too grouped, it looks better when it's varied. Just try mixing it up some and be creative.

give more buildroom at the mineral only

and the corner expes, think about removing the path above them because it will be very hard to take any of the top 3 expoes when they are so easy harrassable-

Gj valug.

The min only does need more building room, but you did put large mains, so it could compensate.

The map is definately slanted, you should keep distances from different places equal. I know alot of people say that symmetry is bad, but don't listen, its easier to make good maps with symmetry.

[sub]In concept its symmetric, I don't think its bad enough to effect gameplay, so im not going to mess with it. Im also too lazy to go fix it.[/sub]

atleast give enough space in min only to make zerg creep spread a bit so he can defend it.
