................................................................................................... This is an outdated map. For Revball Arena (Revball 4) visit the following link Revball Arena (Revball 4) ................................................................................................... The creator of Halo 3's Hogball brings you his finest work yet. Revball is Halo Reach's version of soccer. The game is 4 vs 4 with each team recieving 3 revenants and 1 ghost. Use your vehicle to shoot or ram the ball into the opposing team's goal, indicated by the colored indicator light above it that matches their team, or the stockpile countdown timer inside the goal. Players and vehicles are invulnerable and hijacking and assassinations are disabled. So stifle those slayer tendencies and keep your focus on the ball! The revenant's cannon is ideal for shooting the ball around the stadium. With skill, you can become a crack shot at scoring from a distance. Even though the name is Revball, each team recieves a single ghost. The ghost is more suited to goalies or strikers. The best tactic is to lay low and wait for the right moment. Then pounce by boosting to ram the ball away from your goal or into your opponents'. The home of Revball is the state of the art Splatterdome. This fully domed soccer stadium features automatic ONE ROUND scoring and ball return. Each goal you score is greeted by the sound of celebratory explosions. These explosions cause a flag to fall into your teams stockpile score zone. Then the ball rolls into The Splatterdome's patented ball return system. 15 seconds after you hear the explosions, the ball shoots back into the field of play. By that time, the flags are collected, a point is recieved, and the goal is reset and ready to be scored in again. Gametime is set to 10 minutes or first team to 5 goals. 5 minutes after the ball is first touched, it despawns and returns to midfield. This is called halftime. So when you hear the announcer go "5 minutes remaining" hurry back to midfield and get ready to start the second half. Here is a video of an entire game of Revball.

This actually plays really well as we just played a few games of it. The fact that there is no Honour Rules means that this extremely playable and unique. Great Work!
Hey wheels so... nice.. name lol sorry bout that dude it was just a coincidence I like your ball return thats pretty nice forging hopefully we can trade revballs with no hard feelings lol ill give yours a dl and play it with some buds, you should do the same. When i get some good rounds in ill come back with some feedback although it seems like its been tested plenty already
Played it 4 on 3 and it still worked great. Everybody loved the map. It kept everybody occupied and doing something. My party very much liked it. Also, if I knew how I would show you some hilarious game play videos. One, I was just sitting in a revanaught waiting for the ball to come back, and then the next second I was being flung across the map doing many twist and turns. It was pretty funny. Also, me and this guy were in revanaughts and we rammed each other, and then we just started floating. We just floated into the are and then at one point we just both fell down. It was really cool. Pretty good map, 8/10
Very professional looking logo. If Reach has a playlist like action sack which was in Halo3 I would love to see RevBall in it. Especially since you don't need honour rules which means noone can grief.
Hey wheels i made a revball team on Lz gaming if you want to join.. AbstrosityRevball.webs.com Great map,, you should hold a customs match sometime this week.
I have updated the Splatterdome. Bungie.net : Halo Reach : File Details How do I change the link in the original post?
This game is so much fun XD! Played is with some friends and got hooked and the ball dispenser is genius! This map is awesome and I recommend it to everyone!
This = Epic. I'll recommend it to all my friends, because this **** just needs to get really popular already. It's just really smart and the system can't be cheated in any way. I see this game as Grifball. No Honor Rule, just two teams against each other and no bullshit involved. The only 2 differences are: - This is fun. Grifball isn't. - Grifball got into matchmaking. This didn't get into matchmaking YET. I can see this turning into something official real soon. FEATURE this!
I just watched the video... it seems like if a vehicle gets pushed into the score zone (like what happened to the Ghost near the end of the video), it jams the scoring system and not only can you not score in that scoring zone anymore, but the ball doesn't come back. And to top it off, the Ghost never respawned. If my team were in the lead, I could just jam a Ghost into my own goal area and the enemy wouldn't be able to score. Correct me if I'm wrong here.
That video was from a previous version of the game. Vehicles cant get pushed in on purpose anymore. There are normal blue shield doors behind the orange one way ones. The blue ones keep out unmanned vehicles and the orange ones keep out manned ones. Unmanned vehicles do despawn and respawn in middle after untouched for 1 minute. The video ended before that happened. [br][/br]Edited by merge: On a further note, a new version of The Splatterdome is in my fileshare. I can't figure out how to change the original link. I added a box around the goals on the ground, kinda like the penalty box area. I also changed the vehicle spawn positions to match the new layout. I fixed the stockpile score zones so that they allow you to score with up to 1 second remaining in the game. Previously you couldn't score a point after 10 seconds remaining. This is because the stockpile zones spawn when the rest of the objects do, before the loadout screen. So when the game timer begins, they were already at 5 seconds left. I simply changed the zones to spawn time 9 and 'spawn at start: FALSE'
Hey great job on the ball return system! Having no honor rules is amazing The stadium is also very neatly forged. 5/5 stars you deserve it!
Wheels, it's Big Adio from LZ. This was pure GENIUS. You really do deserve a **** load more credit for this. The dome is perfect and the gameplay is ridiculous. Awesome job. Sorry to whoever may have made this gametype first...Wheels just executed the idea so perfectly. [br][/br]Edited by merge: I played this PLENTY of times and we were only able to get a player through the gate, in which case there is a teleporter there to put you back.
Out of all the generic "ball" games out there, I finally found an original piece of awesometacularness (not a word? see if I care). I got to play two games of 3v3 and it was incredible. The only thing I would recommend changing is the vehicle spawns. Maybe make an angled structure above the course that people drive off of. This was a minor problem because there were unused vehicles in the way.
I originally planned to have ramps that the vehicles come off onto the field, but they looked bad. Also, i REALLY wanna try to get this into matchmaking, and in matchmaking the ramps would be redundant because it would always be 4v4. With less than 8, I guess empty vehicles just act as goalies to simulate players not there lol. Most of the time the ball just ramps right off the empty ones and goes in anyway.
Just looking for mini games for a custom night and found more quality than I've expected this early after the release of Reach. It's so good to see two guys come up with similar maps and just say we might have a game some time eh? Instead of- the original creator of this idea was blah blah blah - like it's some sort of intellectual property - that sort of ubernerdism gives gamers a bad name. It's just a case of great minds think alike, most of the time. DL! (sorry flashback to bungie.net forums)
Nice map first soccer I've personally seen with vehicles(in reach). May i ask, I had a plan once for soccer but the scoring system was many points in one round and only a time limit ended a round/game. (like in real soccer) why is every soccer game i see only 1 point a round? just curious on the reason like better game play for some reason or something?
This was something I came across as well. I was actually thinking of creating a vehicle bay on either side of the map with one way shields but I can't remember if Golf Balls go through them or not so I guess I'll find out lol. Edit: nevermind couldn't even try since the budget was already maxed out lol
