Whats up forgehub community, this is my beautiful hockey rink, with a WORKING SCOREBOARD and BALL RETURN. It plays like soccer gametypes, but more fun. You can watch the ball return through the glass on bridge tunnels. Then a ball will drop in the center scoreboard for the scoring team. You gotta see it to believe it!!! I set up the stockpile scoring system, similar to REVBALL by Wheels36. The NHL variant is based on stockpile, with invulerability, high movement speed, and sprint. All players have a golf club. 10 min. time limit, first to 5 goals wins!!!! also supports 4v4 grifball MYSELF OVERVIEW GOAL SCORE TRIGGER, BELOW THE GOAL THE BALL BEGINNING TO BE RETURNED A FULL SCOREBOARD SCOREBOARD BALL LOADER OUTSIDE VIEW Ball return system VIDEO LINK below \/\/\/\/\/\/ <iframe src="http://www.bungie.net/Silverlight/bungiemediaplayer/embed.aspx?fid=12837842" scrolling="no" style="padding:0;margin:0;border:0;" width="640" height="360" ></iframe> THANX
Wow, just amazing. The way up were able to figure out a suitable ball return and scoreboard (of which I have never seen) is absolutely amazing. The aesthetics of the map aren't breath-taking, but they get the job done. One question though, when the ball is scored, how does it go back into play if it's on the respective teams scoreboard side? Won't it fall unevenly, as in, not in the center of the map?
Wow i've seen a lot of hockey maps and soccer maps but none with a score board. I just downloaded it and ill check it out with my friends later.
This is by far the best Hockey/Soccer map I have ever seen!! I really like the scoreboard idea!! A definite download
The scoreboard system amazes me. You did well with blending the score system in with the overall look of the map. The return system seems like it may be a bit faulty, can you explain how it works? I know you told thR person up there it's on a separate system, but I would like to see some pictures of it too. Other than that, great job.
Amazing. I loved the scoring system. However maybe the gametype could be changed a bit. 7-irons and gravity gammers seemed to just throw the ball all over the arena. I just made it so everyone had swords as weapons, with unlimited armour ability. Afterwards it seemed more like hockey, and it became quite fun. Plus also wanted to note the ball unspawning glitch. For some reason golf balls and soccer balls unspawn after 5 minutes or so. Maybe making it so its 5 minute long rounds? Not really sure how to fix that one.
One of the guys who runs Halo Reach Forges showed me this map the other day. I was impressed as hell. Not only is the craftsmanship smooth, what you did with the scoring system is mindblowing. I was actually in a bit of a shock to see this thread and map here on forgehub. That is definitely something unique, I give you my props MEN1CEtoSOC1ETY
It's not really hockey with a golf ball.. You know that if you turn damage modifier to 0% and melee damage to 0%, you can shoot/jump on/punch/kick landmines and they won't explode? With a gravity hammer, you can even toss them around and they still won't explode! Now, a landmine.. that's a lot more like a hockey puck than a ball (the map looks great, I'm just trying to hint at something for you to try making next time..)
That is a dam good idea. Now we just need to think of an elaborate way how to trigger it to score a goal, and possibly return to play.
Landmines are awesome at respawning when you set their runtime minimum=runtime maximum. Golf balls... not so much. With golf balls it seems like you have to come up with some elaborate way for it to always remain in play or else you'll be waiting forever for it to respawn. With a landmine, you can probably (probably, not tested so this might not work) just put a killball in the "goal" chute, blowing up the landmine and causing it to instantly respawn in the middle of the arena. EDIT: unless by some awful coincidence killballs are ALSO rendered useless by turning damage modifier/melee damage to 0%
The instant respawn wouldn't be anywhere near as cool as watching the ball return through the chute. And i don't know how i could get it to score a goal. I am open to suggestions on how to play with a landmine as a hockey puck, especially since the best way to trigger the scoring system is with a landmine.
very good work!! I love your map a lot.. It's so thrilling i wish you could bet on the outcome of the matches. That would be fantastic! Gaming, Gambling and sports! what a combination it would be!
I am releasing a new and improved HOCKEY DOME that looks like a real rink this weekend. Its set up for the new "insane" hockey gametype. I hope this one will be in matchmaking too!!! I THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR FEEDBACK.
Hey there, i was trying to work out a working scoreboard for months for revball, using spare balls no less, but couldnt figure out how with the 5min ball despawn . Will have to download this to see how you pulled it off.
I made the working scoreboard for fun and originality, since your stockpile flag on a fusion coil works perfectly, we really don't need it. The balls still despawn after 5 min still, which is total bullshit. I literally slapped the whole scoreboard system together, since i had minimal budget left. My original prototype worked much faster, but i didn't have enough $$$ to do it
