The maps of the future -- just what IS possible?
I've been browsing through a lot of threads in this section and I just have to say... wow! The maps that are being made are pretty well done and look very fun to play. And to those of you brainstorming, why don't you post your ideas here, and give suggestions to people who have already posted their ideas?

There's already porn maps in the original starcraft so it's gonna be there for sure.
I wonder if a 2d platformer would be possible kinda like super mario. I'll probably try to do that later on.

Absolutely possible.
Re: The maps of the future -- just what IS possible?
What's not possible.
- More than 4 different set heights of Terrain. (Absolutely disappointed blizzard didn't implement walkable low ground, or more than 2 high ground levels.)
- Bridges.

You can simulate multiple levels of terrain via the terrain/pathing tools (yeah cliffs would be nicer and easier but this works; i'm sure someone will manage to unlock that at some point or another).
Really wish we had bridges though.. :(
Re: The maps of the future -- just what IS possible?
Chess!
I'll be REALLY impressed if someone had the balls to create a Chess AI with it ;)
Re: The maps of the future -- just what IS possible?
OMG!!! Chess were your units actually kill other units????
No porn maps yet????

Chill Kadaj. You've been posting in almost every thread in this section asking for porn maps. I swear HALF the custom maps in Warcraft 3 nowadays are porn maps, you think they won't appear in SC2? If you really want one, then just make one when SC2 is released, or go buy WC3 and join all the porn custom games you want to. In fact, why not just go to some porn sites right now and just stop asking for SC2 porn maps here >_>
Re: The maps of the future -- just what IS possible?
LOL at porn maps thing.
I've seen that Resident evil -esque gameplay, and it was awesome.
It's very exciting.

Exactly because of the same reason???? I was kiddin man. You are the only one in all the threads that i posted that actually took my words so seriously. 90% of internet is porn. Im contributing to that percentage with this messages :p
Kiddin again...

Sorry for the lack of humor. Let's just say I've been on enough of the interwebs that I have a hard time figuring out if someone is serious or not (smileys help ;)). I've seen some BAD spammers.

Lol thi8s goes well with the one of the marine "I'm here to kick ass and chew bubble gum, and I'm all out of...oh never mind"
I got a good laugh when I heard this.
<insert joke about what Duke Nukem Forever and Starcraft Ghost have in common>

Dota-esque Aeon of Strife type map
Re: The maps of the future -- just what IS possible?
Of all the things you can't do, bridges is one of them? lol... What an elephant scared of mice!
Re: The maps of the future -- just what IS possible?
Yeah I'm kind of puzzled by the cliff level limitations and the lack of bridges? Here I was thinking there'd be more terrain options than War3, not less...
All I want is a simple draw bridge that looks incredible, is that so much to ask? :)
I don't think I'll stray too much from the RTS nature of the game for quite a while. Though I would love to see some maps that have some random terrain generation of some kind.
Re: The maps of the future -- just what IS possible?
If there's a bridge in the singleplayer cmpaign, there will be a bridge in the editor.
Remember Blizzard said that the Editor is limited to what is in the Beta? I think the current Editor is much more limited than the one included in retail SC2.
One thing I haven't seen yet relating to custom maps is moving terrain... Someone brought up a cool idea a while ago (not sure who, not sure when) about moving platforms of terrain. Considering terrain isn't a "unit", could it be made to move? Has anyone seen/done this?

There is a category of things called "terrain objects" in the editor (none of which are in the beta editor apparently). I would hazard a guess that this is how you would make moving platforms or bridges (if either is possible), hard to tell with no examples though, might play around with them later and see what they are for/can do (If i can add something to them and figure out how that works anyway).

Yes, we all remember what Blizzard said. But why, of all things would BRIDGES, be excluded from the beta? Are they somehow relevant to the SP campaign and could be considered spoilers? I think not.
