its a nice storyline but it isnt really required to enjoy the game, no? unless you think of a way to translate it into the ballgame, it will just be a ballgame, with that story as mere background that few ppl will know of.
ps: is it in any way derived from equilibrium ? (now you all know where my avatar is from) ![]()

Renegatus is reffering to the painball game where you have some snipers and soldiers, No f**king idea why the heck it is called speedball.
I thought equilibrium was cool, but not great.
Anyhoo, i became interested because of the name, and thought of the old sega game, speedball, where people yould play american football with a large steel ball, and pound other people heads with it.
Im currently peicing together some ideas for a mod based around a combination of Speedball and RollerBall
I figure people chasing a large steel ball and making the decision as to throw it at someone skull, or score a goal? I also included rollerball in some of the idea's because the idea of people being allowed weapons, thrown weapons, baseball bats, hockey sticks, or even flamethrowers of light firearms appeals to me. Also, i would like to see some linebackes riding around on motorcycles while the guy in the sidecar weilds a nasty spiked chain to do some damage and then steal the ball.
Any thoughts or advice on undertaking this project would be very much appreciatted, as well as anyone who wishes to help code, or model, ive got the mapping down, but every little helps.
Anyone who wishes to help in this project is welcome to PM me ill be more than happy to get a team of people and start work if i can ![]()
Thank you so much for reading

Sorry renegatus, im not trying to steal your idea or anything, but i just think that Speedball is better than some paintball game that doesnt even involve a ball, called speedball
Sorry again ren.

Need the story as it makes it more interesting! Pictures as soon as Hammer stops being a bugger and I can make the level.
