When I played Generals online, before I bought Zero Hour, there was this awesome map called World War 3. It had a functioning AI, Balanced, but geographically balanced, And was pretty cool. But when I moved a month and a half ago, I lost it. The terrain wasn't too high quality either, it wasn't blended.


So here is my request. A map that is the biggest it can be, fully functioning AI, (GLA must get and use Sneak attack, maybe they can start with it.) geographically accurate, but balanced in it's own way. (A lot of Oil buildings in the mid-east but is hard to defend, and Australia is a turtling heaven with little building space, ect. ect.) and good terrain. Maybe the title is World under fire or something. Is it possible? I wanted this to be a Shockwave map. Thanks ahead of time.

So you are asking for a entire world map?

Pretty much, Australia, North and South America, yadda yadda yadda, it should be fun.

And a bitch to do

As Kenny said, it indeed is a fucking hard bitch job to be finished. But, if you're lucky, someone will decide to do it. I hope someone does, it's a good map idea.

Next time post these thing in the proper place Nightshadow

[Areze]

Sorry, I just wanted to preserve the idea before it died. I'll put in the right place next time. I'm sorry it will be a bitch, but it might pay off , like I said, GLA might have to start with sneak attack. I can't wait to see a WWIII map Mapper-Guild Quality.

[Lord Atlantis]

Yeah, It would be a bitch to do. I might do this map after I have finished "Burning Crusade" and probably another map.

Thanks Atlantis, once again, you continue to prove, you roxx soxx.

I forgot to mention, in the old map, there was a starting point on every continent,(two on North America) and Asia except Europe because it was too small, maybe the 8th can be in Antarctica if it turns out the same?

I am sure that a solution to how to place the player starts would show itself.

This sounds good, whoever takes it up i will gladly provide outside advice and tips. i also would really like to play it.

[Crazykenny]

Do take in mind GLA has one major disadvantage on this map. AKA Air lackability

[Dauth]

Put in some capturable hovercrafts, or a free supply dock for everyone, or free chinnoks

[Crazykenny]

I was thinking of making indestructable ferry's

[Dauth]

Thats the other possible ides however they are vunerable to being slow and the enemy building an evil beachhead,

could it be made for you to choose one of many landing points?

[Crazykenny]

Propbably, it still have to do a little research on this but it should be possible.

[Areze]

That's what the old map did, US supply dock, capturable Hover Crafts, and Ferrys, a little bit of all. There was even a derelict US airfield in the Mid-East. Your choice of transportation. As long as it is accurate and balanced, 'll play and love it.

[Dr HaxX]

Sounds like a really cool idea!

[AfterFlash]

that sounds awesome, and put Singapore in it too

[Warbz]

dont u just love necro's

[Crazykenny]

Look at the date before posting Afterflash, its in the top right corner of someones post

[Lord Atlantis]

Yeah... I'll leave the thread open for anyone who wishes to add anything to this.

[AfterFlash]

oh sorry, didn;t look, so anyway, is this thread closed?

[Lord Atlantis]

Ummm... I said I would leave it open if people have any more suggestions for it.

Hence why you can still post in it.

[Kyouko]

IMO i think it would be a great idea but wouldent it be a bit unbalanced. For instance, if there was a starting point in australia or another island, then the air force gen will have a great advantage against any gla player. Unless there is navy or the countrys are connected by bridges. Maybe it could be across asia or somthing.
Just an Idea
