Posts from Dead Man's Treasure

Title: Treasures of the Dead Man
Map name: Dead Man Treasures
Map type: Multiplayer
Dungeon: no
Number of players: 8
Size: Extra Large
Map author: MARKELL KRAMMER
Map description: As is well known, history teaches no one anything! And this continent is no exception. The first ancient war has already taken place here, but it seems that a second one is being prepared!
A certain, strangely powerful Necromancer... decided to put an end to the wars and protect the world of the living and the dead. He is also called the dead man with treasures or the guardian of the world of worlds...
While everyone was tired of the war, he took advantage of this and took almost all the cursed treasures and buried them in the dead land.
The kings are increasingly beginning to believe in legends, organizing campaigns, and thoughts of absolute power and artifacts of great power do not give them peace!

From the author:

ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ACHTUNG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The map has undergone significant changes and improvements... the first version was raw... this is not what it used to be, forget the previous version!!!
The recommendations of the community have been taken into account... The unnecessary humor has been removed, now it is more heroic and adequate, the names of the heroes and other descriptions have also been changed!
The map has been cleared of unnecessary effects, now it looks better and produces more FPS, but it lags a little in the middle of the battle, but it is still playable!
The gameplay has changed significantly, this is the most important thing! I processed the map with the RMMP mod, now the battles will be much more difficult!
The game mechanics have been slightly changed, now it has become a little more interesting!
And in general, many game improvements have been made, the difficulty has increased significantly! Now you will not be able to complete the map in 2 months (in terms of game time)

Recommendations from the author!

RATE THE NEW VERSION PLEASE, FORGET THE OLD ONE!!!
Since the difficulty has increased, hardcore fans should play on Hero difficulty! Those who like it easier can play on Veteran or Warrior difficulty.
But the essence of the map is revealed on Hero difficulty!
If you like difficult and long multiplayer battles with friends, then this game is for you!
It will also be interesting to play alone!

With best wishes from the author! The changes were made for you and the community =)

It is best to specify the map details in your profile settings.

I checked it in the editor. The map seems interesting. But what are those hero names? "Khren Mark," "Pokuril," "Pridurok," and so on. They sound like drunks and drug addicts. Is there some hidden meaning behind this?

It's all nonsense The description of the main character, for whom to play, is just awesome

Is there a Mentor??????

It's like in one of the scenarios from Remix's video "How not to make maps." Khan Mangur or the Seventh Dragon.
There are swearing clips there, and here there are all sorts of uncouth things. It's a pity, of course, that you didn't look at the map in-game

There are profanity-filled videos here, and all sorts of uncouth things. It's a shame that I didn't get to play the map

And nothing was missed. The map is so-so. The dialogues/monologues are on the level of "shit, booze, and masturbation," etc. It's purely a trashy map.
It's overloaded with special effects + it's large in itself + "Giant Spiders" (the most buggy creatures from the NCF mod)...
In short, I got tired of fighting constant crashes - I killed it.
P.S. The map is quite multiplayer-friendly and packed (even excessively). If you remove the trashy monologues and special effects, it could be playable. In its current form, I don't want to continue playing it. Sorry, author, but it's a thumbs down.

Yeah, I really dislike maps like this one.

Not a trash map. An excellently playable map. I'm playing it, and I like it. The map is in the style of the good old, fun-filled fourth installment of Heroes. Author, remember this! An ostrich is a BIRD!!! A bird, not what you think it is)).

Okay, you've confused me. I'm going to check the dialogue content now!

elizbar, perhaps we have different understandings of this concept. I've looked at it. The texts, however, are incredibly stupid. "He shat himself," how funny. Some of Saruman's lines – I can't stop laughing. ..."We're ogling the girls" – I'm dying. Oh my God, what is this?! Or is this what humor looks like now?! Grammar and the ability to construct sentences and arrange words are at zero. The requests in the texts to donate to the specified details – in my opinion, this is wrong, but that's just my opinion. I recommend the author learn how to create jokes from BigBrazer.
In general, I give the author a huge thumbs down for this. Everything else is amazing, splendid, laggy, beautiful.

Okay, so you confused me. I'll go check the dialogue content!

elizbar, maybe we have different understandings of this concept. I looked at it. However, the texts are incredibly stupid. "He messed up," how funny. Some of Saruman's lines – I can't stop laughing. ..."We're staring at girls" – I'm under the table. Oh my God, what is this?! Or is this what humor looks like now?! Grammar and the ability to use words and arrange them (the ability to arrange words and sentences) are at zero.

In general, I give the author a huge minus for this. The rest is amazing, brilliant, laggy, beautiful.

Did I say something somewhere about humor? I talked about playability. I talked about the quirky nature of some map creators in the fourth Heroes game. And nothing more. I don't read the texts in this game; I don't like them. I play. I enjoy playing. I don't know any BigBrazer. You might as well have cited Petrosyan or Pavel Volya as examples. Humor either exists or it doesn't. Play Look in two eyes! or Summons & Illusions. These are maps for the fourth Heroes game. Then you might understand what heroic humor is. Or do you think that in every map, the main character should be a paladin of light or a cruel, terrifying necromancer? The maps by Master, or Dyrman, or Menta are examples. And the maps by Mrs. Mouzik are a whole other story. And the main word in this story is PLAYABILITY. Writing a bunch of scripts, creating a ton of quests and conditions doesn't mean that the map is interesting and playable. Well, that's how it is. Constructive criticism and kindness from the heart are good. Sorry for the long post. You don't have to reply. And let's not argue.

Okay, that's it. Even I, with all my tolerance, couldn't stand it. Author! What does "He will stand, he will reach the sky" mean? Is this some kind of joke? The texts are not just bad; they're the ramblings of a confused, hormone-crazed teenager. The game is interesting, but who are the texts for?! This is just...

I remembered similar maps from Heroes 4, read the comments, and it made me want to play, even though it's a multiplayer game.

I really don't have time for it right now, but I'll definitely play when I get the chance.

elizbar1967, you are right. It's a matter of taste; some people like maps by Master and Durman, others prefer 32MeTpa and Ogo-i. Some people like maps that are "playable," while others prefer interesting new mechanics. Added 2 minutes later
I wonder if the author checks in on this thread about their map?

I wonder if the author checks in on the thread and sees the feedback on their map?

I'm curious myself. The person has talent, but what's going on in their head? I think they're around 20 years old . They'll improve with time.

P.S. Advice: remove the neutral level 1 units with their dialogues and get rid of the visual effects. The map is large, and in Heroes 5, large maps are poorly optimized, which causes crashes during saving and loading. And I have a top-of-the-line computer.

I played for two months and then quit; it became uninteresting. And it's not about the silly messages, but about the map itself: the enemies are static and frankly weak. And after defeating the main villain, access is granted to four winged heroes, each with 99 high-level monsters that can be recruited or sent to finish off the remaining weaklings (thanks to a cartographer nearby). Overall, a sad picture emerges, and the desire to play completely disappears. Of course, thank you to the author for their effort, but one wonders if it's not a Sisyphean task. Why waste time and effort on "obsessive" texts and complicating the game when, with such abilities, one could create a decent map in the style of "Heroes," which would delight the community? However, perhaps that's not part of the author's plans, especially if their mind is occupied with something else entirely.
