Murderball...still one crazy map!

Paddyjack · Posted: Wed Jun 26, 2002 8:35 am Post subject: Murderball...still one crazy map!

I must admit, even though some llamas sometimes ruin the game, it is still a very fun map!

I find myself playing more often these days, and a maniacal smile comes over my face when I see that map starting. It's a refreshing TFC map. On the other hand, I don't like Spaceball very much, even though it's a similar concept. I think there are not enough team-oriented features on that map.

BTW, spaceball reminds me a lot of a Quake3 DM map. Is there any similar HLDM maps?

For the most part ppl are playing by the rules. That makes it more fun and you don't have to yell at anyone. This map is a blast to go crazy on. Emps = ball dropper

I love Spaceball for it's DM qualities. Murderball is awesome with a room full of regs. Another great DM map is minigolf2! LMAO!

So, if I understand correctly, unlike Murderball you can kill whoever you want on Spaceball even though they don't have the ball?

Yes, IMHO while Spaceball does have teams, it's really a DM map at heart. On murderball, it's quite easy to tell who has the ball. On Spaceball, you can't really tell who has it.

It's still not the same as a proper DM, QIII style. If you're a HW, you go to tear apart a little scout, and by the time you realise he's on your own team, you're down to 10 health. Then someone comes up behind you and crowbars you

The best part of Spaceball is getting the ball as a scout and running like hell! It's a blast to hit the ramps one after another with people taking potshots at you ("PULL!")

Murderball is truly a great map when you've got a bunch of regs. One thing I'd like to point out, though. If you are a regular and accidentally kill me when you shouldn't,( i.e. my team just dropped the ball or I was to near an emp that you threw when we were attacking the same team) please don't feel the need to apoligize. I understand. It happens.

it happens often indeed

Sometimes I enter the base with my EMP primed to throw it at the sg...and bang I got killed before I throw it..... guess what happens to the one folowing me....

ya murder ball with a room full of regs in brill -- i love it when i entre and i see that i know neally all of the players -- its brill like that -- it would be good to have the next FNF ( after the 28th ) as murder ball -- as it would ONLY regs

o and soz -- i do say soz occationally -- but then thats just being polite -- i thought

and spaceballz is good when you just feel like slaughtering everything that you see -- i only played it a few times -- its fun but i wouldn't rave over it -- murder ball + regs = rulz
