I don't see any posts yet asking this, so I was just wondering:

With the new shaman skills update, are the new variety of skills available going to effect the way Map Crew judges shaman reliant maps? This question is mostly directed at the P4 category I suppose, as maps with things like cages, physical obstacles, and so on, are starting to become obsolete with skills such as Personal Teleporter, Demolition Worker, etc. Are we still able to submit maps with just the regular shaman skillset in mind or do we have to adjust our submissions to try and tailor to the new shaman skills?

from what I've seen mapcrew do no it won't, they can't say "if shaman teleports here" because they don't know if shaman has that skill, so it's pretty much just default shaman they would look at. The shamans skills would simply add to how creatively they can get the mice to the hole. But some consideration is taken, such as temples map where big cheese made cheese visable, etc.

Add Roflzor. (BR mapcrew)

Barrydarsow a dit :

So far the only skill that really causes a huge issue is the bigger cheese, which ruins certain maps where cheese placement is key (cheese evasion maps for example can be rendered uncompleteable by it, but luckily many of these are in racing where the is no shaman). The shaman skills are meant to give an advantage to the shaman, so it wouldn't make much sense to try and shape the rotation so that the skills are useless.

Overall you don't really need to be concerned with them when designing maps.

so we dont need to consider the skills when making maps?
so even if a skill makes it super easy we can ignore the fact. o-o?

*just clarifying thats all*

The only skill you should pay attention to at all is pretty much big cheese and even then its more a judgement call.

thanks for clarifying.

Was my map refused? @4048698

I'm not map crew but that looks easy as shit to crash.

^ Mice can't really make a P7/P42 map crash.

True if it was P7; a category wasn't expressed but with gameplay I expected P9.
