I don't know if this has been brought up already or not, but has the idea of having different shots worth diff't points been discussed?
Say 1 point for a shot.. 2 points for a volley.. 3 for a carry in. Maybe 2 for a long shot.
Just seems crap sometimes when you make a badass goal that took forever to setup and it's a measely point.

meh, it's the same in any sport/game. That 25 yard half-volley is (and should always be) worth the same as a deflection in off someone's arse.
anyway, aren't we trying to dissuade the volley whores?

lacrosse scores extra for long shots too. if anything that's deathball's closest real-life counterpart.

"Say 1 point for a shot.. 2 points for a volley.. 3 for a carry in."
awful awful awful
i dont wanna decide how, i just need to get it in!
stuff like this has a BIG effect on the whole game and would most likely kill it

there should be a touchdown (walk in) option just for fun... wouldn't be too hard to code and am sure it could be fun for a short amount of time

You mean kill it faster than the slow death that it's going through right now?

2 boosters on each side... with a tripple jump you could land going really fast in the enemies net... really fun to play.

if DB was changed so the creses were rounded, the scoring system could easily be changed because distance would become a factor considering how easy it is to shoot straight on and side shots because they're closer to the goal than the top corenrs.
If the pbox's were rounded a goal from inside could be worth 2 and a shot from outside could be worth 3. But then again, that will never happen because David M is a stubborn fagtard and wants to play soccer instead of a completely new and different sport that DB started out as.

Jah, but you still get different points in basketball for different shots
