At the moment there are 5 tiers of units, so I don't want to hear any complaints of there not being enough units.
Also, I will not change the amount of starting towers, as the point of the map is to upgrade the basic starting towers into various types of more specialized types of towers. If you dislike the variety of towers after upgrading (even though there are over 100), this is an acceptable complaint (although I would disagree).
Here you can rate the current version of the map. When the map is complete, I will add a poll to the other thread.
When rating the map, please describe your opinion below.
For example, "1/5 this map sux!" is not appropriate.
I would prefer a more detailed description, in order to help me to improve the map in whatever areas you don't like.
Here are examples of proper ratings:
I would prefer that when rating it, you will at least post similarly to the above examples.
If you wish, you could provide an even more detailed explanation.
When rating, please do not factor visual attractiveness of terrain into your rating, as a visually attractive terrain would ruin the point of the map. I am very good at creating terrain, and it was hard enough to force myself to not create an embracing terrain for this map.
Also, do not factor your skill into the rating. I'm not asking if you're good or bad at the map; I'm asking about how good the map is.
For example, there are several maps which I am incredible at that I would still give a low rating (for example, I'm great at Base TD, however I would give this map a 3/5 due to bugs and balance issues)
As another example, I do not enjoy playing DotA (I'm not sure if I'm good or bad at it), but it is a well-made map, and I would have to give it a 5/5, even though I dislike playing the map and I do not like the community of players who play DotA.
I do not want your rating to be based on how much you like me; this is not a popularity contest! I don't want to be given a 10/10 simply because of being a friend, or a 1/5 simply for being hated. My feelings will not be lifted or hurt by the rating, I simply want to know what people think of the map.
If you do not even like playing tower defense games, don't rate it a 1/5 simply based on your dislike of games of this type.
This isn't only advise for rating this particular map; you should rate everything using these basic principles.

Here are examples of proper ratings:
| 1/5 --Poor balance --Little variety --Not fun to play --Several bugs |
| 5/5 --Properly balanced --Good tower variety --Properly functioning systems --Fun to play |
