Cataclysmic Warcraft TW - idea

[Vladyvid]

Hello everyone!

Would there be any WoW players intersted in a post-cataclysmic warcraft total war mod? Ive been away from WoW (played since 2007) for a couple of months but recently returned to that addiction and I thought about this idea.

I think the post-cataclysmic warcraft setting is much more complicated than the warcraft RTS series setting, at least in the number of possible factions, races etc etc.

What you people think?

Thanks for any replies.

I think that the RTS series are a better setting since I personally don't like Cata.
And also,there already is a Warcraft mod in progress. Unfortunatelly they've lost their units due to loosing a hard drive but they have awesome map done already. All they need are units, so if you are interested you might want to help them.

I think opposite.

Every second post in their topic is crying about lost units, its really boring. Making the map is easy and the cataclysmic map is different from theirs.

Nobody is able to help them.

lol.

Great comment from someone who has nothing to say.

Considering the amount of work that a Cataclysmic Warcraft setting would require, I can not see it as a simple task, and I would wonder if it's even possible to animate all the 'cool' things such as the Maelstrom.

Ehm, wrong. There are many modders who could help, some just maybe don't have time at the moment or the interest.

I think the best option is to do a 4 period mod with various map changes. Now Warcraft is a pretty small world, so it's not totally unreasonable to expand the boundaries and include more stuff. Outlands and the four Elemental Plane Regions as well as the Southern Continent of Pandaria would all fit. Deepholm is in the Maelstrom. Vashjir off the east coast of Azeroth includes the Abyssal Maw. Skywall can be off the south coast of Kalimdor as in reality its reached above it. Throw Firelands off the west coast of Kalimdor. Then drop Outlands to the East of the Eastern Kingdoms. Problems solved. Make one of the terrain types underwater themed and you're good to go... and blame magic for any eccentricities.


First War (Warcraft 1)
Second War (Warcraft 2)
Third War (Warcraft 3)
Fourth War (Cataclysm)
