Is map making dead?
>>
yep
>>
Maybe for Warcraft

In other games it's still going fine
>>

Yeah, companies are too afraid of user content somehow being used as lawsuit fodder aimed at them, so now all mapmaking has to go through an approval process, which must have regulations and strict limitations because it's just two interns at most checking to make sure you didn't just make a swastika out of Footmen/Marines/NPCs/etc.

I miss NWN, and every time a game invokes the spirit of NWN and its editor I immediately get hype, even though I know it will be trash just like all the others.

No host.

in starcraft 2?

SC had better maps.
>>
>>339258450
TFT was the height and the end. Ended on a good note.
>>
I see plenty of maps uploaded today so not entirely. Someone's still making this shit.
>>
>>339260389
Where are the people playing them all I wonder, though.
>>
>>339260313
I only had starcraft but even I KNOW that WC3 customs were 10x better.

SC maps were just lite-Wc3 maps. Some are still legendary but WC3 was better dude.

Sunken D was great but even in its one million varities it is no Element TD/GEM TD/Or one million other unique TDs

>Is map making dead?

Not at all, just look at the massive amount of community made maps in TF 2 or the new UT.
>>
>tfw didn't have a legit wc3 in it's heyday so played custom maps on eurobattle.net or local server (about 500 people playing) and now when I have a job and money can't justify spending money on a dead game

Well at least I got my kick out of it sometime

In Dota2
>>
>>339261401
Dota2 editor is at least 50x harder to use than WC3's, which absolutely sucks for the community
>>
What is the best zombie survival style map and why was it Undead Assault 2?
>>
>>339261401
Valve should rip map editor from wc3 with changes to account for copyright infringement. Hl2 modders aren't interested in top down gameplay so by not having a bridge from wc3/sc2 to dota2 they are trying to create a map making community out of thin air.
