    Hi, I was thinking about making alternate Grifball maps. Some will be bigger, but most will be smaller than the Foundry Grifball map.

    First, Please dont double post just modify your original post.

    Second, If you do make another Grifball map i would love to see it on standoff or on the Middle of narrows. This also gives
    "Grif" a chance to hide behind some things.

    I was thinking that bottom part in The Pit, the inside part of the room with the computer in Sandtrap (A very small but interesting Grifball court, maybe the big gorge part in Sandtrap also, the water in Last Resort and the bottom part of Guardian.

    A Grifball Court in the water on Last Resort would be my pick.

    I would love to see a grifball map that has varying terrain like (on foundry) raise the floor then make like the box corners sticking out like on Different Level

    The problem with those is that it would be hard to block off especially w/ grifball's decreased gravity. The guardian/pit ones would be easier than sandtrap or last resort though. water would be nice though a little splish-splash w/ your grifball

    I'm thinking maybe Rugby instead of Grifball on Last Resort and Sandtrap.

    Rugby, football, I really odn't see a diffrence. Narrows would be awsome!
    I thought they had a beach Griffball (4th slot).

    Already done....many times over....(but you should always try your own)...

    Here's a few of the ones I made....
    Red v Blue (on foundry with uncampable spawns and elevated goals + 3 boamb spawns, to discourage bomb spawn camping)
    The Narrow Way (on Narrows - elevated bomb spawns and goal lines at each end)
    Construct Z (on construct with four total goal points)
    Isotope (on Isotope - 2 bomb spawns and 4 total goals, two of which are accessed by using the "pink elevators" on the map)

    All of mine use my own version of Grif-ball that has 75% gravity....so you may need to adjust your game rules in order to jump to the goals (or use a grav hammer combo to loft the player to the goals).

    I think that this is rather unnecessary, I know that the first grifball court sucked, but we don't need to make another one.

    I would like to see one on Rats Nest. Maybe the middle part, block the opening to the outside(rocket spawn). use the big center place between camp and gravty hammer, plus the little ways that go towards the bases

    I think the one on Last Resort sounds pretty fun.

    The only reason it sucked IMO is that you could get out of the map and camp with the ball with a 1 point lead. Happened to me many times this weekend and I was so pissed off.

    I mean come on, they had enough budget to interlock some boxes to block off the top. And its such a simple map they could have spent the extra few minutes getting it just right. Why didn't they do that?

    yeah i think you need smaller maps it gets annoying walking from one end of foundry to the other then just dying.

    Sounds like it could be fun, maybe Bungie would add it to they playlist, it is a little smaller than foundry but it would work great for 3v3 I think. Maybe some of the smaller ones, like (the center part of epitaph) could work for 2v2? Keep me posted on the maps you finish.

    It's a great 2v2 map, I havn't tried 3v3 yet, but it puts a twist into Grifball because you have the accidental Grifball carrier falls off the map and the bomb resets. Also, it's harder to spawn camp because the Spawns are closer together.

    Why did you make the spawns closer together? I think it should always remain the standard distance.

    Wouldn't closer spawns make it easier to spawn camp?
