A note to the creators if they come here, your mod rules, we played it at our lan party over this last weekend, 5 on 5, it was the #1 game for the night. alot of good times, it was like the perfect party game.

Everyone should scope it out, and start playing online the latest release was nice, good maps and its very addicting

whoevers working on tennis hurry up and get a release out.

I never warmed to Dodgeball...I didn't see the skill in it and found myself getting bored quite quickly. But I'll be checking it out again to see if anything's changed...Hopefully I'll enjoy more next time...

dodging and too high run speed ruins it for me

dodge width reduced by 70%
you are not dodging the ball, you are just randomly running and jumping around to be not predictable, so boring

well i think part of the stradigeys include whe you have 2 of your team mates in the penaltie area, useing them to try and elimanate the people remaining on the other team by lining up so the ball will end up to the player across the zone. usually if your good at deathball your good at dodgeball, as vollying someones shot is a really effective way to get someone if your good at aiming and timing them

the skill part comes with reflexes (and a good connection might help ;P)

new things i noticed playing this last weekend then a few months ago, where, the ball trail is red or blue when shot and is leathal, but fades to green when it becomes safe to touch, the pass button will 'catch' a hot ball if timed right eliminating the player who shot it.

anyhow, 4 on 4 is a perfect number on most maps. good fun if my connection was up i'd be running a server, i'd love to see some bots.
