Re: Zooming
It just affects the terrain-variable balance of single units, which is made up by the fact that EotA provides very different maps to play on.

Re: Zooming
Uhm, the second does not count, I hope that's clear. The first does not matter all that much, since right now units just attack multiple different towers. Of course focused fire is more efficient, but in the end the difference is minor, especially when siege units don't have to get into meele range ...

Re: Zooming
You can't say "significantly" when all it does is increase the number of units that can attack a building at once by 33% or something. AoE effects are balanced automatically: Using smaller collision means a higher possible unit density, but also that every single unit provides a smaller su...

Re: Arachnus King of Spiders
The City of Webs, New Web City as seen from aboard a Goblin Zeppelin (which is not listed in the EotA wiki as I just realized).

Re: Zooming
Err.. I was just about to create a new thread suggesting to use "Smaller collision volumes". Well, the model size of units really is a bit small. It's not too small, I wish it was even smaller for spawns, but it's not a problem if you just increased all unit model sizes by, say, 10% or so ...

Smaller and less selection circles (hp bars)
Most players ignore selection circles, I am sure. They are of no importance gameplay wise, they don't add to the atmosphere, don't make the game easier and.. ah well you get my point. The only really important thing regarding selection circles is the fact that the size of hp- and mana bars displayed...

Zooming
I'd like to have the default zoom level increased. As far as I know EotA is using WC3's standard 1650 camera distance, which is much too low for nearly everything. I myself use '-zoom 2222' (simply because it's quick to type) at the start of every game and would tell everyone else in my game to do s...

Re: First EotA Games

Re: First EotA Games
Well, I still think I've been playing a version converted to RoC. Didn't play it though, since EotA is one of the higher hardware requiring AoS maps, which didn't work that well on the computers back then. Anyway! See, multiple/buildable HQs healing you instead of a fountain is another thing that Eo...

Where to post non-hero suggestions?
I've been wondering where to post suggestions regarding the actual game, not just heroes and their skills. The game development subforum "Suggestions" reads "Submit hero or skill concepts for critiquing and potential implementation.", so I'm a bit afraid of posting there. Are suc...

Re: First EotA Games
Ah hey there! Although I played my first EotA game yeeeears ago (I think it was a TFT->ROC version, could that be true?) I had a break that lasted just as long and only had two or three games back then. I just played a few SP games with AIs simply because I can't be bothered hosting a game for years...
