    Have you ever wished you had more "fun" stuff to play with your friends?
    are you tired off nonstop slayer gametypes?

    If so, you're in the right place.

    I am currently creating several games specifically designed for parties of people who don't want competiton, and just want fun.

    And SO!

    I give you the first "friendly" game i've concocted.

    Yea it does look fun, and even tho you said it was just for fun (which it is) is looks like somethin that could get to be competitive with friends. I will for sure DL even tho the creativity isnt that great it looks cool.

    uh, this this very average. i see little interlocking and geomerging, not that it needs it. i am guessing that it is much like grifball with objects in the way. also add some pics so i can get a better idea on the map.

    The idea is pretty simple, but clever, it looks like one of the only successful halo 3 ball games that don't feel like oddball, but is still a free for all. The post could use some action pix to be honest, but the simplicity workd so well, it allows people to bring guests who've never played halo 3 into the game to play, and unless they have critical downsyndrome, they could pick it up easily. The game looks amazing, but the post could use a bit more effort.
    Good job, anyhow.
    4/5; Keep it up!

    looks cool. ive never seen a game that uses this ball kill and carrier killed idea. i also like that you dont gain any points from having the ball.
    very original. just work on improving the map.

    Personally, i agree with the whole idea but maybe you should make it more points to kill someone if you have the ball so people actually try to go for it.... either that or everyone would be to busy waiting for someone to pick the ball up so they can get a quick and easy 5 points. Overall not a bad map, but i would seriously consider THINKING about my idea, good map though 4/5

    The ball carrier takes 1/2 as much damage as normal people.
    picking it up greatly boosts survivability and speed so that if you DO run into someone that does that, you can both survive it and escape easily enough

    theoreticaly the people not holding the ball could bruteshot jump out of the map and just sit there and shoot at the ball carrier
    good idea, jut the map mechanics need to be straightened out.
    i would also suggest making it more in teh way of multi leveled

    you cant brute shot jump out of the map, you probably downloaded it right when i posted it, that was accidental, i didn't save the 3rd row of walls.
    there's NO way out now.

    *sigh* Is merging and interlocking that only thing to look for in a map? ForgeHub is getting really harsh on these comments on the maps. This map does not have any boxes next to each other so why would you need interlocking? Can people just stop basing a map on it looks and focus more on the gameplay? Play the game and look at the fun don't just look at it. Geo-Merging and Interlocking are great discoveries ,but sometimes they aren't needed.

    Besides that, I played this map with few of my friends. Its a super fast-paced game and the oddball holder does not gain points from the number of seconds they get to hold the ball but for the number of kills they get with it. Its an extremely fun game with medium number of people in it. A must play!
