Derp
Yellow Man in the Crypt
This is my first attempt at a tweaked version of a map, and I'm pretty proud of it myself. After hearing that the Crypt in Sandbox is the size of a Grifball court, I felt it necessary to, like all the other Grifball fans out there, make a modification of it. There's nothing really amazing about my modifications other than it is near perfectly symmetrical. There are a few obstacles that can make normal Grifball strategies a bit null. The two biggest changes noticeable right off the bat are that the plant sites for each team is walled off, making teamwork and strategy a must in the normally balls-to-the-wall gameplay. Also, the bomb's spawn point is elevated, thus making the newly-added man cannons a useful token. This obviously works best for the official Grifball gametype, which I also have in my file share but I have made available to you here (Official Grifball Gametype).
Also for added fun, if you decide to add a third team, you may have spectators or referees. (Honestly, I don't know what use a referee in Grifball would be, but just go with me here.) This team would be the Green team, but it doesn't matter too much because all other teams spawn in the main area of the map. These spectators will fall down the hole to the Crypt to land on a scaffolding suspended in midair, giving them a birds-eye view of the battlefield. All in all it took me about an hour to make the map, but another two to make the weapons text in the main part of the map. Simply it is directions for where the newly spawned spectators will go and my gamertag signature. So please, download, rate, add me and play with me sometime. I'd love to hear suggestions for what to do for v3. Thank you.
Map: GRFBLL SNDBX v2 or my personal title for it "Yellow Man in the Crypt"
Players: 2-8 preferred, but experiment, adjust, and maybe you'll find it more fun with more
Gametype: Generally Grifball, but I'm sure it is perfectly flexible for other gametypes, like Slayer. Future versions will be flexible to almost all gametypes.
Screenshots: These were taken on a game with just myself to give you guys a view of it and hopefully help you plan out some strategies. Give them a look-see and tell me what you think.
