[CENTER]My aim was create an amazing bound. With all the triggers availabe it's about time someone did.
And I think I've done it...

:About the map:
-19 Original Levels-
-Minefield so YOU can choose when you get lives-
-More emphasis on teamplay than solo bounding-
-Mad level ideas never seen before-
-Killer terrain-
-Movie brief-
-Fun all round-

:For your information:
-In production on and off for 1year+1month-
-5 different ai scripts used-
-193 triggers for 19 levels-
-286 triggers overall (not including for each player whn repeated)-
-99% of text strings used-
-7 sounds-
-257kb-
-5 players-
-255 locations(and 30 re-used)
-The rest is history...-

:Limits I reached:
-ai scripts messed each other up-
-string limit-
-starforge messed up with sound-
-patience many-a-time!-
-locations...easily-
-too many just have the map-

It was hard work put it that way...

Mhmm, I kinda like it, but I can find no way of progressing in minefield.

I was in single player, and I couldn't jump the fence. Oh well, what I did see didn't seem as original as you promised.

-Terrain ? Yeah, I've seen it done before in the same style. Off topic style.
-Sound ? Holy Christ, it was really off-topic.
-Briefing ? I've sseen a snail fart before. (What coincidence, the snail was the same @)
-Levels themselves ? Sorry, didn't see enough to share my point of view.

But from what I saw, you made a bound for noobs that will go like "OMG LOOK AT THIS TERRAIN, OMG LOOK AT THOSE DOBLE-COLORED UNIT NAMES, OMG IT HAS MUSIC".

I think all bounds should take as an example those bounds:

Marathon Bound 2, Puma Bound 2. They are not as "Original" as your bound, but they offer good bounding without all that off-topicness that you have. The level and your ling, that is all the bound must be about.

In other words, you made a very flashy map for beginners. Pro's bound on other bounds.

Finally!!!!!

Great Map Great Bound I loved it!
Although it is really hard until you figure things out.
Loved the whole thing and great job there was only one glitch I noticed:
On very last part with the turrets if you die on the first square the game sometimes spawns an archon in front, who only attacks you if you attack him, not u can go around, but if you die again another archon spawns making a wall. We managed to win after 3 archons had spawned by having one guy hit and run, but it was a pain in the ass and needs to be fixed.

Other then that nobody noticed any other glitchs and they all loved it.

I really, really hate bounds, but I was actually able to enjoy this map. There were some unique level ideas and although many people didn't like the terrain, I enjoyed the complex insanity of it.

Ditto on what voyager said, only difference is that I like bounds

I don't get what you mean? It's just a maze where you get lives if you need them. The deeper you go in the more chance you have of gettin lives. There are some bad eggs with lings but its easy to figure out which is which. There aren't levels in the minefield, just one big zone.



Yea it seems there are 2 types of bounders. Those who like explosions and practise alot so they're amazing at timing and want to show off.

Then people who don't play them much at all so when they come to a bound they can't get past level one. You're right mine is more for noob bounders but next time play it to the end. The levels get better as you go on. I started this a year ago and only got really experimental after level 7 or so.

I don't really care about the music etc. being off-topic because it's what I like and it's my map...but you're entitled to your opinion I guess.

And about the snail...you've seen it before because I did it before in B2BF Bound. I was the first to do it! XGuy[X-Team] told me to do the snail fighting a walrus...which i did but it got bugged up! FYI .@"./ = snail ;;,=- = walrus.

And yea I know it was packed a bit too much but thats just how my mind works. I was trying to figure out the ideas seperately, I din't look at the map on the whole really....maybe next time eh?

Cheers anyways hope you have time to play it fully one day.



YEA



Haha nice one. Glad you liked it even tho it is a bit complicated. Sorry about the bug...



Cheers! The terrain is a bit mad if you're new to the map and I guess it's a bit overwhelming to start with. I knew how everything works so it was easy for me. If you're new to it ....can't begin to imagine.



Thanks.

I enjoyed the minefield section, but I was also playing single player, so I couldn't jump the fence... The map was a little cluttered, but i didn't care about that too much. Good job with the map!

My friend has been playing that alot lately
so me gonna try it out and play it

Only other thing is it took like 5 rms to actually understand the minefield, like 1st i thought you had to kill the lings, etc etc till finally i got that the good egg n bad egg thing.

This looks great, has great ideas, but it seems you're exaggerating how great it is, I'm not saying it isn't . But the 'newbness' was annoying. I can imagine a ten year old playing it, saying it's the best, and showing it to his twenty-five year old friend, who knows way better maps than it.

No wait, maybe I'm exaggerating.

I'll just try it.

ADDITION:
That's moronic you can't beat it sololy. Why? Because people either can't host, the map isn't released on battle.net, or is rare, which happens for ALOT of maps I want to play. So if I download this, I won't be able to play it. In other words, I wasn't able to enjoy your map just because you limited it to three players, rather than one. 3/10 for trying, 5/10 for originality, 6/10 for everything else.

Overall: 6/10.

Nice try.

Look. Socialize? With who? Morons? Pretty much, that's what b.net is FULL OF. Complete morons who would try to steal and take credit for your map at any chance. They also despise lag, and swear their heads off for a single detail that is against them. Also, they ban downloaders..

And I can't host so..

Pretty much that's what I meant.

Meh.

It wasn't based on just two levels nitwit. It was based on everything I read and did.

So this wasn't really an overall, and if you're assuming it is to be on the defensive side, well, get over it.

Now, I'm sorry, but I've wanted to say that ever since I reread this topic.

You were high when you made this weren't you?
Hawt.

I hosted the map many times and enjoyed it
Tirinity don't badmouth the map that you havent played, that makes you as ignorant as those 'Morons' you were talking about.

PS... If you can't host, fix the problem... Plus if you based your opinion on what you heard and read, you'd give it a better rating.

..You haven't really said much that makes sense there.
"Nitwit"...someone hit a chord? (and I don't mean a guitar haha!)
*Over it*



...don't think so. But that would've been a good explanation for it's insanity or rather my insanity...



Swooop! Glad you liked it.

Wow cheers. Yea the turret level is my favourite too it's a pitty there's a bug on it.
The scarab level was more just to show some other features that could be used in bounds. I didn't really have the chance to make it really special, with me wanting to finish it quickly due to the map driving me mad. But it turned out ok.

I try to be original in most of my bounds. Like Red2Blue I guess. Just a different style.

I played with a couple friends and the game, unfortunately, lagged like crap. They got pissed finding where the bound is, at first.
