Good custom maps?

#1 Post by DarnYak »

Anyone trip across good custom maps they recommend? I'm hoping next semister will be kinder and give me free time to devote at least some time to map development, and curious if there's anything I should see first.

Star Battle is good.

SoTiS is a semi-kinda in a way half-decent AoS.

Marine Arena is ok for like 1 game a month.

That's about it. We need some good maps :(

I'll second the Star Battle one, is pretty good now with more room for growth.

Been playing some more of the custom maps now that there are more then just 2.
Star Battle is pretty good.
the blizz map StarJewel is a really interesting and neat concept. you basically play bejeweled and when you clear gems you get mana to use for summoning units to send at the enemys base, or you can use the mana on special abilities.
One thing i have noticed about some of the custom maps out now, they have the ability to save your progress in the map and it loads it when you join a new game. no need to write down and type out codes to save progresses anymore. This must be something blizzard is supporting or something, its pretty neat. There is a night of the dead map that uses this, as well as a remake of legion td.

Recently I've started to enjoy
-Stronghold Conquest: Best Tug of War map around atm I think.
-Starjeweled
-Left 2 Die: fun if you have a non-idiot partner

Outbreak is one of my favorite campaign missions :P I guess that's why I like the mission.

SoTiS just recently got revamped quite a bit. Still very dota-esque but they've taken the UI in their own direction and done a lot of neat changes.

NotD:SO for my yearly NotD fix, NotD EU feels strange and people are running all over the map on their own.

Zerg Hunter RPG is also good, kind of Diablo 2-esque action RPG map.
