I have seen renegatus's map and idea for a mod, Speedball, and i was dissapointed when i heard it was some paintall game that did not even involve a ball, so i have begun researching the old sega game, i have decided to attempt to bring the world of speedball, spiced up with some rollerball, into the world of tommorow, or today.
Im currently peicing together some ideas, the general idea for the gameplay will be first person but mostly involving melee weapons or thrown weapons. I envision the game playing like american football, only with linebackers on mototcycles and people with large, barbed clubs.
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 anyone would like to help map,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 :biggrin:
Thank you so much for reading

PS: I apologize to renegatus if this causes any problems or complications about name, but seeing as you got the name first i am willing to change it to something appropriatte, like Rollerball, Speedball2004, or HalfBall, or something like that.
