Title: Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne
Post by: TheCelestialOne on September 14, 2003, 01:32:07 pm
Does anyone of you guys play the WCIII expansion pack The Frozen Throne? I am thinking of creating a costum SP campaign but I don't know if there is a large enough fanbase to make it worth while.

*raises hand

I play it (online and SP), and love it. :)

oh, TCO, by Custom do you mean like your own TC-story, or your own add on to the WCIII saga?

I may very well get it. My COMPLETELY LEGAL copy of WCIII went pear shaped on me, so I think I might have to admit defeat and go buy a copy...

Just started the undead campaign ( I don't like the undeads :doubt: ), and I have to say that so far it rocks. there's so many new stuff it's amazing ( I love the Naga, they rule :) ).

TFT singleplayer is fun, but I got sick and tired of multiplay between the beta and the rather immature WCIII community: "n00blet! n00blet! n00blet!"

The Undead Campaign is actually the best one IMHO. The Night Elf one was kinda specialized, if not cool, but the Blood Elf one was fun, just didn't seem all that great compared to the Undead one. The Undead camp seems to be the only that really follows the ending of WCIII.

Oh, and the Orc RPG is good stuff too. :)

What, you mean that MMOG thingy? I was quite interested in that when it was announced. I wonder...

Worlds of Warcraft? Yeah, that'll be killer too, but I meant the Orc RPG-ish campaign.

Heh, yeah the Trigger Editor can be annoying. It took me a full day to understand it. But in the end its just like SEXPing in FRED but only with about three times the functionality and options.

But since you don't even FRED... :p

btw, I made a quick search, I'm a bit diaspointed... no new units for d/l, no new scenary props? can't Warcraft3 be modded at all save for the mission editor? :(

There is one, but that mod replaces ALL races with new ones. Thus completely deleting any WCIII related races... The game loses its WC feel.

Ah, cool, thanks. looking at the forums, seems you can do new units, buildings, etc using Gmax or max4.

Would you be writing your version of the next WC expansion, or would you be making a TC.. say making a Lord of the Rings TC or summat..

in short, what's your campaign about?

Well, not a TC I guess. Here is a VERY short intro:

--------------------------
Bloodwar

With the Lich King set loose the scourge grew more powerfull then ever and has now completely taken over Kalimdor, Quel Thalas and Lordearon. Even the Dwarven nation, Kaz Modan has been overrun. The remaining survivors of the scourge have fled to Azeroth. With all odds against them the survivors try to ward of death itself.
--------------------------

As I said, its a VERY short intro so don't draw any conclusions from it just yet.
