Diff't points, diff't goals

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.

:devil:

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.

heh, that's quite ironic actually, considering the map that I'm currently working on ;)

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 :eek:
