 StarCraft: Rivalry's four-mission teaser has been released! Click HERE to download it! By the way, this is the latest version of Rivalry's four-mission teaser. If you're a judge for the contest, find the contest version in the contest thread (link). If you're NOT a judge, or you are and want to check up on how the campaign's going, this links is for you! As many of you are aware of at this point, StarCraft: Rivalry intends to offer a complete "expansion pack" experience via a new campaign for each race. Like StarCraft: Brood War, my campaigns will offer each race new units and heroes, and the storytelling within the maps will introduce and integrate these new units and heroes much like Blizzard Entertainment's expansion pack did. Here's a list of the new units and heroes, along with their respective descriptions. Note that, unless the unit or hero is marked with an asterisk (*), it may be removed, replaced, or otherwise modified. As always, I might add more, providing the limitations of StarCraft's engine doesn't beat me up too badly in the process.

We've gone through numerous mod- and map-related updates. I've finally resolved to just upload the maps separate from the mod, as most of the work seems to be happening with the mod at the moment (beta testing the multiplayer aspect with friends, etc.). Stay tuned for more information, screenshots, and videos.

Well, the good news is that screenshots are required to stop people from posting threads for maps that they haven't actually started yet (as in, maps that aren't in production). Posting videos of the map actually fulfills this requirement better, so if you don't want to include screenshots then you could probably remove that section entirely

I would contact Moose or Ahli to make sure then, but it makes sense to me that videos of the map prove the map is in production better than a screenshot would. The stickied thread on the subject seems to make the intention of the rule pretty clear. If anyone tells you you can't do it that way, make sure to ask them for a reason, because as far as I can tell there shouldn't be one.

I doubt "Asphyxiator" is a name that'd win any notoriety.
please call it Choker or Strangler or smth Btw.. is there a air unit that uses melee weapons? I've always dreamed of that  |
.. as you PeePost #17 Pr0nogo Oct 5 2011, 10:39 am

Pfft. 'Asphyxiator' is far more brutal than anything else I could think of (basically what you demanded in your post). If another name strikes me, I'll implement that.
As for melee air units, no. That's been done in the Zeji Conversion by RazorClawX, though. |

Only if it's Auto-Erotic Asphyxiation
 I think your fixation towards making unit names by adding suffixes to verbs is ruining the zerg's names. Though I understand that it is to stay true to the naming formula for SC.. It's probably a better idea to think of something else.... like.. for example.. Hellkite, Bloodkite, Hellscourge, Bloodcrazed Guardian or [insert adjective] Guardian. Unit names like Demolisher and Scimitar also ruins terran aesthetics.. but w/e... the worst offender is Asphyxiator.. lol |

Three new tracks are in the OP. They replace the first three Zerg tracks. Much better, IMO.
/e Zerg soundtrack's been fully replaced. Obviously I'll have more tracks for them, but at the present that's all that is available. This post was edited 1 time, last edit by Pr0nogo: Oct 9 2011, 4:10 pm. |
