This is a map that can be won on much different ways.
But hear to what I say: This map isnt for score, it's for fun.
Virgil created this "game" for fun.
It's a game!
So have fun!
Here I will write down all the people who FAILED!
1.) Tomas_cary
(Future ones will be integrated!)
EDIT:
REJECTED
I just seen that people can have fun even with speedrunning. So if you are fast AND have fun please: Play!
Hi.
You are right. I don't enjoy this games, I do it for money. ;D
Cary
it's jsut everyone doing this under 10 minutes failed.
Because it's what I call timeplay, and I dont enjoy that.
But I do play for fun! I just do it quickly. :P
Who cares about speedrunning, just get really good at playing normally! :P
(I actually played at a very leisurely pace, considering I used that massive overpowered THING called Thor. But I had fun, so I'll do it again :P)
The concept of "Fun" is subjective. Some people think a root canal is fun... go figure.
We all get out of the game what we want. I use a style that is similar to, and different from others. I call my style "fun". You should be honored that your map gets played.. There are some authors whose maps I no longer play... (mainly because they are sadistic spore-mongers) but never mind that... Just enjoy.....
CW is definitely fun! I just happen to have played it for a long time and enjoy trying to finish a map fast. I must admit that I look for maps with high times ;)
Thor definitely made this map too easy.
I said it somehow, I saying it now again:
This map is not supposed to be hard.
it is supposed to make fun!
And I wouldnt have much fun tehre without Thor.

but hard maps can be fun too...
In this case, you can decide.
On EVERY map with THor, it is possible to play without.
On the story map #20 Loki it has some special effects, but still I dont know it's a difference if I never build Thor there or destroy it before rift opens up.Someone here know?
Nvm, taht's not that I wanted to talk about.
It's on every Thor map the fact, that you can build it. And you can be a pro and dont build it. It's on you.
Not much fun, mostly just boring screen-watching. Better luck next time.
Well, I finally scraped in under 10 minutes, but the 7-minute club is too exclusive for me. :)
Why are you spamming your maps in another thread?
Edit to clarify. A post has been removed from this thread by its author.
you're so desperated of your maps?
Why?
I think there are enough players playing yours.
Now : Virgil, if you read this, please remove Ebon_Hearts message
I think Ebon_Heart replied to this question:

So it's not completely a shameless self promotion ;)
Sorry, I shoulda quoted that... And I just thought of a better map where Thor is essential... If I can find it. It's the too much for Thor maze. And I removed my post.
Here we are, I don't believe this map can be beaten without Thor. http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=2799 I really shouldn't have used one of my maps as an example... But it was the first example of a map where Thor is essential I could think of... Besides Loki of course. XD (even if you get totems and everything, the city just sits there without Thor)

not true (ok, not anymore). try it
Dangit, well Loki still requires Thor. :P
Loki does NOT require Thor.
There are videos on YouTube proving this.
Virgil even coded special-case responses for the condition when Loki is beat without building Thor.
?? I've opened the rift on Loki without Thor and it just sat there with a black hole in the center of the map. To my knowledge you can do everything except leave without Thor.
Ever tried doing it in a version after 0346?
That must be it! I beat it on my laptop, which had an older version of the game installed... I need to do it with a more recent path now, don't I? *grumbles*

Several of these document it. And mthw2vc is correct. You have to do it with an up-to-date version. Which, of course you have?
I'll try it soon... The version I beat I on was a bit older.
EDIT: watches the video... That's no fair! He got a compliment from knuckle cracker, where as I just got bored. XD
lulz. Ive beaten Loki on 6 different ways:
1.) Building Thor, let it on map, no double down
2.) not building Thor, no double down
3.) Building Thor, destroy it before rift opens, no double down
4.) Building Thor, let it on map, double down active
5.) Building Thor, destroy it before rift opens, double down active
6.) Not building Thor, double down active
That are all possibilitys. Who of you thought about destroying Thor right before rift opens?
I've done it! I've done it the normal way; no thor; no thor, no drones, no mortars; and speed a decent speed run, getting the thor tech about 30 seconds after it appeared, and building the thor right after.
Do it all six ways.
With all possibilitys to cahnge the Thor-Options and double down^^ it#s evrytime something other even the
- Thor survive till the end
- Thor destroy before rift opens
only decide in the end dialog.
But I think, tahts at least my opinion, Loki without Thor on double down is easier than tucana on normal mode.
Tucana was pretty easy... And I don't have double down. :( Loki with no mortars and no thor is the hardest I've done. There's a reason it tells you to build those things at the beginning...
EDIT: I didn't use drones either. forgot to mention that.
you dont have double down?!?
That means that you havent played to game through. You never completed it!
You get if for getting all achievements, so complete all story's, all Special Ops and all Conquests.
Hey I completed it, shoudlnt be any problem for you.
the conquest maps are so BORING! there's no plot, no nothing. just repetitive, generic maps. I might as well play through a year's worth of chronom maps. After I got done with the story mode, I got into custom maps. Some of the custom maps are really cool.
A year's worth? It's not even a month's worth! Very nearly all of the conquest maps are easily and quickly beaten, especially with the experience you have now. If you actually bother to do 4-5 maps a day, you're done in less than a week.
I done the whole conquest-pack at one evening. I needed ca 4 hours for all together - They are such easy, I needed really less time, and you should know im not the fastest.

That's what a map with Thor should be like! :P
ty UpperKEES! I've been looking for an example like that.... and that second one looks really amazing, I need to try it sometime! Also, I might finish the conquest maps sometime... but for now, I wanna get my old foes series up, and after that, it'll almost be time for cw2! :) (one reason I need to get my series up FAST)
