I have one thing to say - this better be in the Grifball playlist. This is absolutely the best Grifball map I've seen. Very good use of the swimming glitch, probably the best they'll ever be.
I thought the original map on the preview was amazing, but this is downright unbelievable. The way you used the asthetics of Longshore with the given Forge objects was extremely clever and very, very pleasing to my eye.
Since I see no downsides to this map, I declare this map the best Longshore map ever made. 5/5.
Even though Water Polo is the recommended gametype, KOTH, TS, and Oddball are very fun aswell and on top of that you can mess with the weapon settings for those three and experiment with team snipers or any other weapon(except grav hammers they tend to ruin the fun). Seriously, gets some friends and play this 50-100 times for maximum enjoyment.
this game is so much fun, the only problem(though it hardly ever happens) is when u get stuck in one spot for a time, otherwise this map is so much damn fun. every1 dl this now or u hav no soul ;)
I like it but when you pick up the bomb you don't go fast enough to float so you just sink to the bottom and die. If you made him anymore faster it would be unfair and his gravity is too high to float. Map is cool but game type has some bugs.

Speed has nothing to do with floating, it all lies in the gravity setting which is the same for the bomb carrier. As i explained in the origional post you only have about 10 seconds to float unless you get hit by an opponent or friendly then you float longer. The bomb carriers speed is set to 90% while everyone else is at 150% so you have an advantage to catch him should he slip past you.
You have to submit this to atlas for the Grifball playlist, if you do, put a link right here and I'm sure that everyone will go on atlas and post good comments on your thread...
If you wan't, there is the group link on B.net, here.

Once again...
Unless you enjoy completely embarrassing yourself in front of your peers and being banned from Atlas for not reading the rules, DO NOT submit this, or any other Grifball map, to Atlas.

got it? OK!, now that we got that out of the way...
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
This is the first community supplied variant of Grifball EVER to be featured on the front page of Grifball.com, which is usually reserved for official Grifball League news.
It is way too early to tell if this map will be included in future Double EXP Weekends, but for now, being accepted by regular Grifball League players is a huge step in the right direction.
