This map is outdated! See the new version here!! http://www.forgehub.com/forum/mini-game-maps/79974-guardian-ball-2-0-king-guardian-cog-arena.html Hello! This is my first map i've posted on forgehub (or any other forum for that matter) and I believe I am doing everything correctly, if not, please don't hesitate to tell me otherwise. Getting down to business: The name of the game is Guardian Ball played on the map G.B. Arena (yeah I know, not that creative of a map name), as you can probably assume, this is an Oddball variant. The jest of this map is a free for all oddball game (between 3 and 6 players) or team oddball (2v2 or 3v3 (2v2 recommended)) is, like all other oddball games, to hold the ball for the most amount of time. However, the guardians, those lovely lovely guardians, play a major roll in this game: In the four corners of this (square) map are horizontal man-cannons, that serve no other purpse than launching large bricks in the faces of your foes (and yourself), at very high velocities. Sometimes they will kill, other times they will just bounce you to a different section of the map, the one thing this map only has to guarantee: Crazy, Hectic Fun. Rules of the game: General Rules: Score to win: 200 Team Oddball: Enabled (You decide whether or not it is single-player teams or multi-player teams) Team Scoring: Sum of Team Carrying Points: 1 Ball Count: 1 Initial Ball Delay: 5 Seconds Primary Weapon: Pistol (experiment with this, many other weapons are also fun!!) Secondary Weapon: None Weapons on map: Battle Riffles and Carbines (spawn late into game) Equipment on map: Sticky grenades, Spike Grenades, and a bubble shield (spawn late into game) Vehicles on map: none Custom Powerups: none Number of rounds: one Time limit: none Respawn time: 5 seconds Suicide Penalty: 5 seconds Betrayal Penalty: 5 seconds All other non-player based traits unchanged. Base Player Traits: No shield recharge 25% shield vampirism 200% damage multiplier Grenade count: unchanged (2 frags) Waypoint visible to allies Ball Carrier Traits: 90% Damage Resistance 75% of normal speed 150% Gravity Waypoint visible to everyone In Game Photos: Download Game type - Guardian Ball Map - G.B. Arena (Broken link, see Guardian Ball on Cog Arena thread (Guardian Ball v2)) Well, that is basically it, I truly hope you enjoy this map, please leave feedback!! Thanks a bunch, Noxiw
Looks like a fun gametype but a pretty bland map. You may need to fix the floor cuz from what i see, it looks a bit bumpy. 3.5/5
Fix'd. This looks pretty fun actually. Great job. What are the blocks set to spawn at? And do they disapear during the game, or stay there.
The blocks are set at a varation anywhere between 10 seconds (no) and 60 (no) most of them are between 20(no) and 30(no), however. There are also a few 45 set at the beggining so the block alternation is basically always random.
Sounds like a very fun gametype and map, I'll download it and see what it's like. I will leave a rating after i have had a few plays with friends but nice first impression. =)
looks like it would be a real fun custom when bored with a few friends...The map itself is a little messy but im sure it doesent affect game play that much. Are the blocks acutally strong enough to splatter you?
I like the idea! It is really original! The gameplay looks smooth but maybe too hectic? Still, the forging is neat and clean aswell. So, 5/5 for originality
After many matches that spanned over hours me and all friends have all loved every minute of game play on this map and gametype. After a few starting weapon changes we found sniper rifles fun and needlers less. Even with the odd uneven ground it was overlooked and didn't effect game play what so ever. I would recommend anyone to download it cause of the unexpeacted box splatters and the fun it adds to it. So with no doubt in my mind and friends minds i rate it a 5/5. I will look forward to see any new maps you create and post. =)
I have decided that I am going to make a second version of this map on the main or crypt level of sandbox. There really is no reason for it to be in the skybubble, all that does is add unnecessary bumps, v2 will be much more aesthetic, and should play even better than the current version. Thanks!
this was a fun map and i think bungie need 2 look at some more cool maps for dub xp or something coz grifball is all same now and they got the new maps so why not pur gball on there :/
Ive Played the map and the gametype and its alot of Fun Goodjob with the map Noxiw ill Give u a 5/5..!!!! ( Attempt to make something Even better then this One XP )
