Hello everybody, i need a map idea because i just cant think of anything that is plausible to make and looks fun to play. I really like to make Rpg's and im mostly a scripter tho. I like to use third person cameras and quests and unique systems, but i cant think of anything fun with that to make or something, so basicly i would ask for some ideas here on a Third person rpg game where you control one unit. And i also like to abuse the banks to store stuff >:)
You say you like to make RPGs, make one! It is more satisfying to make one yourself from scratch than to limit yourself by taking ideas from others! Let your imagination run wild.
Diplo = Diplomacy. Start as a nation, expand your territory, build your economy and military might, and then deal with other players as they do the same. My favorite game-type in any blizzard game. I thought with an editor as expansive as SC2's that a diplo map would be out ricky tick, hell I thought all sorts of variations would be out. Modern day, medevil period, galactic diplo. But nope, none so far. A couple risk games but no true diplomacy games. :(
Now thats an idea, but i dont know where to start, are you meaning like you build up an army in a city, then you go to attack for your nation, and then you go to battle, and get stuff from entering your city again each day? And how should the UI be? terrain? camera?
Seriously? Think about it yourself. Do you want to create a map or do you want to have a map made by us with your name on it? ;)
Play other games, look at other UIs, take stuff you like and try to recreate it or draw one from scratch on a paper and try to create a matching one with the editor.
Take terrain you like, its your map, not ours. Ask again if you have specific questions, like how to make THAT UI, because you like it or something.
Well, you got a type now, haven't you? ;) Asking us for terrain, UI, camera is not really needed, use your own imagination ;). If it really should suck badly, people will tell you and you can change that.
Asking other people, whats fun to play, will usually result in hundreds of different answers. Ask yourself: Whats fun for you? I am pretty sure whatever it is, other people will like it, too (and some will hate it, ofc ;) )

Terraining a 256*256 map sends shivers down my spine.

Depending on what you wanted, you may not have to. I mean there's already pre-made europe terrains out there lol. Besides, diplo maps never had very intricate terrains.

Make a diplo map, SC2's editor has been out for months and there still isn't a bloody diplo map.
@Colt556:
What is diplo?
