IDEA: Halo Dodgeball

Yep, you already know what I am talking 'bout. {From The Subject} I know there are many things being done, micro map, halo-themed map, and err... some weird maps. Lol... I just thought {thanks to gecko753 for his unique noob post-it, lol}and maybe nobody did those before so I thought I would post it here. Maybe some of you guys have saw the dodgeball movie that was released not too long ago. Make the court just like that with a little modified, and you would start off with no weapons {except for dodgeball in middle of the court} nor grenade. Melee damage would be disabled. Be sure to make it big, bright, and beautiful red dodgeballs, lol. Well, here you go. Just an idea for someone to make {Don't forget to mention me!} Just let me know if somebody is doing this.

Uhm... I dunno, it wouldnt really work on halo, but a dodgeball game would be pretty cool, just making it on halo, there would be no rules, and you would always catch the ball.

Hmm... Maybe disable the catching feature, I don't know if you can catch something in first place. Just think of this as one time you played with someone, using only the sticky grenade throwing, know what I mean? See who get sticky first? Pretty much same.

yea i remember hearing about that. an idea tho would be to just replace the grenade w/ a red ball and have it stick and kill u instantly... just so that people will see that uve been hit.

eh well most maps are made with the intent of being played normally. its not very often that a map comes out that has a totally different style of gameplay. and hey, not meaning to be mean at all, but if it comes out u dont have to dl it.

Lol, well it was just like throwing grenades, but dodgeball, you know? It doesn't have to be gay if you do something creative to halo. Maybe adding new gametype, dodgeball. I dont know.. really.

right. yea ive thought about that kinda gametype too. things u gotta think about are like, how do u score? how do u throw a ball?
it would be fun to see it work. like the halo ball map. now that was fun.

Frankly, i think its awsome and sick. It will be awsome for you to change a great first-person shooter into something else thats MAD? Take ndugu for example. It was AWSOME. MC on a snowboard doing MAD half tricks.? So really, HOW AWSOME? Just please make this map and have a game desighned for dodgeball instead of playing another crappy dodgeball game and a have a halo dogeball map that will be amusing for a Awsome day and have MAD graphics.

Lol, nice going.
So anyone is going to take this idea or nah, just one of the retardest ideas y'all see? I know someone is bound to be busy with their... ya kno, things... whatever y'all are doing.
Maybe instead of dodgeball, you can throw oddball skulls, lol. that was dumb, but dodgeball is better off. Not that hard, if you got hit, you dropped the "skull" as dodgeball. Simple as that.

Or copy the skull tag and just replace the model with a ball

i played a mod for UT2004 called deathball its like soccer only the ball was in a gun and u shooted it into goals how about you make a gun put it in the middle of a dodgeball court the first team get the gun has to shoot it at the other teams players and if you get killed u have to watch another player play untill a new round how about it
by the way the gun has the dodgeball in it so you shoot the dodgeball at other players

right i have an idea of how it could work
1. make a map
simple map mabe some barells flat ground ntohing much to block u
2. Dellete all weapons exepct plasama grads
or you could just make a new weapon with plasma grad styel just ball model
3. make the plasma grads/ball go at super speed when they hit you die
4. make game type ave only one life
sorted this sounds like a pretty easy task havent modded in a while cause of college and stuff but i want to get back into modding so ill try it for ya
sorry forgot to mession you have red v blue sapawn at each end of map row of plasam grads in middle some how you would need the player that dies to die and make a plsama grad spawn by him (sorry about spelling)
so if ya sound intreseted in helping me get in touch with me
ma email is

Alright, thanks. I appreciate it and shoot, I want in the team. Here is my idea, maybe we can merge, lol.
The dodgeball court would be perfect rectangle, of course. It would be small size (the width of the map, longest) Instead of those cowboy barrels, we should use the shield from longest, you know, in middle of base. Mainly use for cover and they got empty spot in .. Well y'all should know what I'm talka 'bout.. Instead of putting in dodgeball, we just use grenade because nobody can get enough pleasure of knowing you stick the grenade on em, lol. Make it red glowing flame. Melee damaged is disabled, there is no weapons, only sticky grenades. Put in glass window all around the court. Some graphic design of court line, etc. (With the color of yellow and black, like warning) Think you can start already?
