Oceania [Quenched]

[LED ZEPPELINER]

i really like it but it confuses me a little because a bunch of territories are a group of islands and they are spread out really far, and also you have a different land color for each territory, but the outline is the same for the bonuses, i really like it but it just confuses me

i think that you watched the first version.. the other versions have same land colours of the bonus area.

oh k

Do you have some type of bonus for a player owning all the turrets?

[edbeard]

versions in the post are 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 but in the poll are 2.0, 2.1, 2.2

that's bound to cause some confusion. I voted for the middle one on your poll which hopefully is the middle one from the post

Turrets will be deleted in future versions because the community says that are useless

[sailorseal]

Yes delete the turrets but make something similar to them. Also I absolutely 100% HATE the strong neon! I much prefer light or none. I think this is a great idea and you are doing a great job. I look forward to playing this map in the future1

[Jumentum]

the lines within australia could look a little less like ms paint, they're too jagged and dont fit with the flow of the map.

honestly, i like the solid continent color better (this version) it makes it a lot less confusing

I'm assuming that you tried to take the poll down yourself? This means that the record of votes gets lost/messed up (Perhaps this warrants a note somewhere in some Foundry guidance?)

On another note, it looks like your heading in the right direction... [Advanced Draft]

UPDATE DONE!

I think the texture for the ocean is too strong; it clashes with the glow of the islands.

Speaking of the islands' glow, I'd like to see a stroke instead of a glow, along with a less glaring texture with the ocean.

Otherwise, I like the look of the map. I love the title especially.

Last time i contact the graphic he told me that he would make the ocean a little bit light....
But i have to ask to him for a sure reply....

I love the look of this map! Reminds me of a Christmas tree, very festive indeed!

I find it unlogical only to have the Eastern part of Indonesia and not the entire country, nor the Philippines, the latter even being entirely in the image already. Can't you expand it westwards just a little bit?

we add the "wallace line zone" sometimes ago, then it becomes the east indonesia.
There was a discussion about this here

Sorry but the territories number was locked without a technical reason to unlock it!

[thenobodies80]

New poll open!
Select the best small version size.
The poll run for 7 days.


Small Version 2.4 (**)
Dimensions (630x410)




Small version 2.5 (*)(**)
Dimensions (630x434)
Pay Attention ! Pitcairn Islands was removed.



(*)During the "open-poll time" the big version could be different to the small one. When poll will be closed all the updates done on big version will be updated on small one.
(**)obviously if this map will be official small version Pitcairn will be removed on the big one.

[pikkio]

i think there was some troubles in the posting images.. you may use the bigimg i think, cause in video resolution 1024 the images are resized and smaller..

this is the right version 2.4:

[bigimg]http://img176.imageshack.us/img176/6163/mappaoceaniasmallversioxd3.jpg[/bigimg]

and this is the 2.5

this is looking promising. the bonuses are on the high side, but i expect u'll adjust them when the gameplay is more fully developed.

australia, new zealand, new guinea and celebes are virtually the only places that have a recognisable outline. most of the other territories appear to be made up of little more than random dots. have u considered doing to most islands what i think u've already attempted for norfolk island, except on a bigger scale, i mean exaggerating the size of each island so that it's totally not to scale, but is large enough to have a distinct shape, character (for example, if u choose to draw mountains) and, importantly, colour? this means much more of the screen will become part of the playable area.

http://www.norfolkisland.com.au/pages/map/

unrelated to this, norfolk island belongs to australia, not new zealand.

i see that u're having a bit of trouble with names in east indonesia. timor-leste (or east timor) is no longer occupied by indonesia, having gained a independence by 2002 in a very bloody struggle. rather than east indonesia, perhaps u can call this region east indies, if u can't find a better name.

http://www.timor-leste.gov.tl/AboutTimo ... istory.htm

celebes and maluku are not names that are contemporary with each other. celebes is now known as sulawesi, while maluku was the moluccas, if u prefer historical names.

http://www.bi.go.id/web/en/Ruang+Media/ ... +77205.htm

papua (formerly known as irian jaya), not west papua, is the name of the indonesian half of new guinea. west papua is a small section that was split off administratively from papua very recently. geographically, papua is part of melanesia, though it goes with indonesia politically.

keep up the good work.
