DeathBall is a top class First Person Sport Game that combines elements of Football, Rugby and Handball. It's a mod for UT2004, but it has nothing to do with a shooter (a pure sports game).
So you got these football pitches, and you have to get the ball into the enemy goal. You have a hammer tool. With that one you can kick other players around, kill the enemy ballowner with 2 hits and also kick the ball away (volley).
In your own penalty zone you can kill all enemy players with one hit. With the ball launcher you can charge up a shot, the longer you hold it the harder it will be and you can even add spin to the ball, so it will curl in the air.
Just like in football you should have a keeper in your goal. He has some special abilities like he's 30% faster than others,he can dodge and jump higher.
Death Ball should be played with 6-10 players
The gameplay is very easy too learn, but it's hard to master. At first it seems to be pretty simple, but the more you play the more you realise how complex it is and how many possibilities your team has. The ways to score are infinite.

Such a great and fun mod, yet none of the remaining UT2004 servers run it.
There used to be an IRC room with a bot for pick-up matches, good times.

Deathball is THE best Sports mod for UT2k4, I love it!
this mod is fantastic, what would be great is for some levels with traps, moving floors, or some kind of hazards it would boost up the skill involved a bit, overall very good mod and professional feel to it
