BETA is released..Looking forward to some comments

POST YOUR THOUGHTS!!

I always thought Troy games should have been fighting for the walls of troy to be brought down, not to kill king priam and the palace and stuff. The timer is usually associated with how long Troy has to wait Agamemnon out, yet he is clearly not going to go away if the walls of troy are already down..

But of course, do what makes the map better and more fun I'm looking forward to it.

And from what I already saw, the terrain is almost somethign we'd call a WoodenFire ;O

Its sexy, blended, layerd, w/e you wanna call, nicly

Dude, you can't just come in here and say this is the BEST TROY map ever. For all we know this could be the worst TROY map ever. Thread looks okay, how bout lotsa screens? I saw piece of terrain for this that Wooden posted up. Was pretty bad terrain, hopefully you've improved it, because the one I saw was like a 0.5/10.

Mmm.. If I remember well.. didn't you said the same with your LOTR map that it would be the best LOTR map ever? It's not... Also, please, don't talk about other terrain.. look at yours first.. anyways..

OT: This seems a cool map, good luck with it man. I hope this will be a good seige map.

Aye, he was Hector's brother. And if you'd like to go Shakespearean, you can bring out Troilus, Hector's youngest brother (and a bit better fighter than Paris).

And from WHAT I SAW, it was more than decent. Sheesh

I like the idea. I never seen a map like this once again i'm happy. It sounds you have an awsome idea and i think the game play will be insane. Make it original and surprise us all. Good luck.

for me, troy games are really interesting, the defence, the storyline, and the trojan horse! im looking forward for this game, sounds really good

Silly me, (I said silly ) Thats the kind of feedback I need!

Regarding DLK, I understand he has some things to say about anything I do because he's DLK. I don't really care, negative comments only make me strive to do better! BTW DLK, im not using me and Wooden's old Troy map we started. I lost that map a way long time ago so even if I did want to use things from it I wouldnt be able to.

The walls of Troy are nice and a bit blocky if your wondering and I think I want to add a layer to them so they look like this,

_______________
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The "x" is wall, "_" is top of wall segment, "o" is a unit.
_o_o_o_o_o_o_o_ The idea is that theres an area before the top of the wall forarcher
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and warriors to fight over the wall, I don't think its going changed --Bottom of wall-- unless I find it neccesary to the game.

fritfrat - once the walls are surpassed the residential district is pretty much destroyed, the temples and such next to the palace are pretty easy kills. I always thought a great palace should have many rooms and be huge, the palace in my Troy is huge. My palace might be a little too big on the outside but the inside is just how you would imagine a palace to be. With all the rooms and hallways filled up with soldiers its a pretty important part of the map.

As for the rest of you i need IDEAS!!!! Anything a great siege map needs!

Big explosions! ;O

And, a part where the the men move through the sewers behinth the city fighting zombies to get to the spot to ambush them inside troy ;O

Im tackling the idea of boiling oil mainly for the walls as you can guess, what do you guys think?

man another cool map. hey topic creator have you seen my friend map? http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=25115&hl= you guys are good map makers... wish i could be like you

They are not just good map makers they were made themselves good map makers it takes practice for a while.

Will there be gods? <3

Sorry DLD no gods, they are to rigged.
Zee, you gatta mention something to the thread or map to have it not be spam, and yes I read about Xythar RPG
Atreyu, Thx

You guys need to mention some ideas what I should have in the map, I know its alot harder now because the BETA isn't in ready yet, but I still need to hear what a good Troy map should have!

Nice new layout to your post

Yea gods are no fun in a map, but non rigged heros that can level up are always nifty. Except for the elf, he makes it no fun.

But yea, troy needs lots going on all at once, what kinda massing are you having? O.o

Im thinking of having target mass and then an observer that allows you to mass anywhere or maybe just target mass (Preset mass areas), I don't want the Acheans to be able to explore Troy with the observer, I might just have the observer's movement restricted to the area the Acheans can access.

Glad you used my criticism. It can be effect if you really think about it. I'm only trying to help you Zell.
Lookin' forward to this map, good luck, release soon please.

Im thinking of making a trailer in the mean time until I get internet back, good idea?

You put it down then look forward to it? Whats with you people xD

Its sexy, was sexy and is even sexier now that theres triggers. I jsut wanna see ;D

Heh alright well today I'll aim for getting the map on this computer with internet on it by tommarow. I'm kind of nervous though, the version is untested and im kind of weary putting it up since im not ganna be able to work on it tonight, what do you guys think?

JoJo. no problem! I have over 20 testers in my clan hungry for testing. Send me the map over PM and I will have it tested for you in a matter of minutes!
