If all that effort was put into it, then why wasn't it a successful and well regarded team? Literally everyone I talked to about it had something to say about World Team. And not much of it was really good, if at all. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it was the same old people pulling the weight. That was the mistake. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

squakhawk 7208 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 35 minutes ago, Neckbeardicus Prime, Riblord of Aesterwald said: Take it from a dude who has been here a decade: When you go about designing your next map, take a very close look at how Anthos was laid out. I joined back in Asulon and I have a preference for large areas in general, and I remember being rather disappointed with the release of Anthos because of how damned small it was. But in hindsight, it was a very masterful design that hasn't been duplicated in nine years. Think about how natural barriers (especially rivers and mountains) can affect flow of people. The implementation of East Fleet was great for Dwarves and Humans, but Elves and Orcs are extremely far away to walk to. A main highway is not a bad thing to use to connect playerbases, and it is much more immersive than the fetish that some people have with fast travels. Take some time to think about how to create a map without portals and fast-travels, but to also allow for breathing space Anthos is acting as one of my main inspirations for map design theme, it served as a much more natural looking and feeling map. Elevations that didn’t change from Y:50 to Y:300 within a hundred blocks, biomes to match what made sense, and without an ungodly unused stain akin to Arcas’ snow island or Almaris’ volcano-lands. Usable land is one thing, but fantasy, thematically correct and natural land will exceed it in every way. There’s a lot of lessons to be learned from just the last three maps alone- Almaris, Arcas, Atlas. I want this one done right. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
