Hey guys. Me and a bud of mine decided we wanted to have a go at trying to make a hockey map and gametype. After about 2 weeks we have finished. And I will say, after checking out a few other hockey maps I think this one is more of an ideal hockey map. It's recommended for 4v4, but can also be played with 3v3/2v2/1v1, and also allows spectators. You can find the link, rules and details below. Gametype Details: -Sharpshooters (Forwards/Defensemen) spawn with a Golf Club and Sword, and have the Sprint ability. The club is used for dumping the Golf Ball (puck), shooting, passing, etc. while the sword is mainly used if you are on a breakaway or need to have a better control on slowly moving the puck. -Guards (Goalies) spawn with just a Gravity Hammer just for cosmetics and have the Evade ability so that they can play the puck and make 'desperation saves' when they are out of position. -Players run at 150% but jump lower than normal to minimize jumping. -Players cannot be killed. -After the goalies pickup the custom powerup they turn white and have a waypoint displayed over their head for both teams to see. Also, goalies jump higher than the Sharpshooters and move slower. -The custom powerup lasts 90 seconds and respawns every 90 seconds. -There are 3 rounds and each round lasts 10 minutes. Rules: -All players participating in the hockey game must choose either the Red or Blue team, while all spectators choose the Gold team. -Before the game starts each team needs to designate a goalie, and only ONE goalie, so that they can select the "Guard" class and so they can pick up the custom powerup. All other players on the team select "Sharpshooter". -ONLY the Goalie is allowed to pickup the custom powerup. If a Sharpshooter picks it up they can play goalie, but they will be at a severe disadvantage. -Once a goal is scored, the team that was scored on gets possession of the puck. That's about it. Here's the link to both the map and the gametype. Hope you guys enjoy it and feedback is more than welcome! Download the Map & Gametype Here HOCKEY!

This seems to look pretty cool. I think you did a nice job with the aesthetics including the floor. Can you go behind the goals though like you can in real life ice hockey? I can't really tell from the pictures.
Sadly you cannot. Since the Red goal is against the wall we decided to block off behind the Blue goal as well for consistency. had to make a few updates to the gametype and map. the new versions can be found at my fileshare.
