Map Rating/Review Thread

OMG an admin posting a map for comments? What? So unheard of!

Ooh, finally an opportunity to criticise an admin

The mountain and tree placement is... Too square, try and make them more natural, spread out and so on. Same with the bushes. The water rock layout is good, but the beach at the top is too straight as well. It also seems to be lacking something... Probably needs more trees. Ooh, and also, the beach is a little too cramped to me, due to the amount of people, but that isn't really too bad, as it is something that happens, and also fits.

I think I am too generous mark wise... 7/10.

And now my map:

COMMENT: I can't seem to follow the link, but anyways, as far as I can see, the mountain style is a bit boring. The tree placement, specifically, above those mountain, is boring as well... The bushes are okay, I guess... The beach is nice. It's busy, yet it's nice. Not sure about a rock on a sandy island though...
RATING: 4/10
SUGGESTION: I know you can make this map more beautiful, though...

COMMENT: Remember to wrap your map with SPOILER tags. Anyways, I don't like the trees much... I dunno. They're a bit chaotic to look at. Plus, the border pallete of the top of the trees got mixed with the lower parts of the tree's pallete... Those long bushes' top outline is a bit annoying to look at, though... I also don't understand the shadow of the PLAYER's big house, 'cause if you look at the small house below the lab, you can see it has a shadow on it's right side, while the PLAYER's house has a tiny bit of shadow. Also, the tree's sides seem to be "cut" on the water parts of the map. But anyways, it's a wonderful map.
RATING: 7/10
SUGGESTION: Fix the trees.

COMMENT: Your SPOILER tags went a bit wrong, but anyways... It's a wonderful map. Palletes are a bit pale, however. Although I don't understand how the PLAYER will get to that cave there, or will he go through a cave in another map and ends there?
RATING: 9/10
SUGGESTION: Your map is giving off a forest feel, so I guess add more grass to it? But it's nice as it is...

well the first thing I dont like is the tree placement but I love the grass placement and everything eles is nice good job 8.5/10

 

[Resultz]

Ok first of all, can anyone tell me how to make a spoiler tag?

and Second, This is my Town/world Map for my made up region, Kuoso.

at first it looks quite big and Full, but half of the map will be for 'post game' purposes. The black lines indicate the unpassbles until the player has beat the E4 and the black dot town is the starting town.
Thanks :)

YAY?! Neways, I'm not liking this map too much ):
The mountains are like...the same...exactly the same as the level below them. They are also like uber square. The tree placement like scares me, because it just looks really out of place. Paths are pretty good, but they're a tad square for my taste. Anyways, the bushes and flowers are too bunched up, you know, in my opinion. So it's a 2/10.

The tree placement doesn't look as natural as it could and the grass arrangement is kind of..random and block-y.

7/10 Nice tiles and palettes.

It's not a bad map but it's not good either. It needs to have another house and the beach needs to be less crowded. Speaking of the beach, it needs to be bigger and not as square-ish (which I don't really have anything against). Finally the thing that killed it for me was the rown of trees on the cliff. It just looks so wrong.

So... sorry Hiroshi, but your map only gets a 6/10 for me.

Come on, I know you can do better. I've seen your maps (such as updated merson cave) and they are some of the best maps I've ever seen.

Damn, that's good.

First of all I love the general shape. It's so awesome and playable. I loved your placement of everything and I'm kinda speechless because that is one epic map.

Rating - 10/10

Improvements - map like this all the time. :P

Anyways, the bushes and flowers are too bunched up, you know, in my opinion.

Just butting in but when it's a town we're talking about isn't there wouldn't you bunch up the flowers and bushes?

Map doesn't look quite right. :|

The map in general is pretty nice (-steals-) but the row of trees on that mountain and the long flat boring mountains are a bit too straight and boring for my liking. I dunno, warp it a bit?

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

Oy don't steal my map ;o; I actually revised it (as I do with all my maps every now and them) to incorporate a bit more detail.

Is that big ugly rocky part at the bottom even necessary? You don't need it THAT large, eh?

The big long rock with trees is still annoying, ish. Remove half of it or something? :|

 

[justinufer]

He is my map i have fixed up the border so it is acually ratable. This the home town for my hack.

Honestly, the tiles and everything are all okay, BUT
what i really dont like about this map is [S-HIGHLIGHT] the layout[/S-HIGHLIGHT],
it lacks fluidity.

Also: All thoses people and only one house, wtf.
include a hotel perhaps.

I like to offer suggestions, rather than just spam. but it is just a suggestion

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

Well considering I got a surplus of space at the bottom I got lazy and didn't shrink it. It's not like anyone can actually see that space, either (unless I outright consider expanding the map). D;

After all, this IS a map that will actually be PLAYED. D;

Rightyo. :|

The big column of trees though.

Thanks for ripping my tileset off. I appreciate that. I don't remember saying you could use it but whatever. Also, you'll have to find a new tree. That tree isn't public. One of the reasons why my tileset changed in my hack thread is because I found out that tree tile wasn't for public use. Unless you got permission from Spriter-K of deviant art, which I doubt, because he isn't listed in the credits. Also, you forgot to credit Alistair for the wild grass tiles and the flower tiles.

Why be such a lazy mapper? I see this comment in so many of your map postings. It would literally take thirty seconds to fix the "border-errors" in this map.

This map is great. The mountains are done beautifully. I really like the shape too. FLOWER PLACEMENT IS GOOD GOOD. Only the cave entrance on the water bugs me because it could cause problems of the player walking on water.
Anyways... 8/10
