Familiar with breakfloor maps from Counterstrike or Call of Duty?
Glass Attack is a modification being built for Team Fortress 2, in which every player on both teams is a sniper. Glass Attack offers a unique twist to the arena game play. As the name implies, maps created for this game mode feature walls, floors, and ceilings made of breakable glass. By taking out the capture point, it virtually becomes a sniper deathmatch game mode. This game mode encourages players to be strategic with every shot they have. Not only can you kill your enemy by shooting or stabbing them, but by shooting out the glass beneath them you can make them fall to their death. The SMG has been stripped from you and the Huntsman does not break through glass, so the suggested weapon load out is the Sniper Rifle, Jarate, and Kukuri.
I myself am an avid Zombie Fortress and Prop Hunt player. While I am well aware that a large portion of the Team Fortress 2 community dislike these mods and look at them unfavorably, I love them both. I really do enjoy true vanilla TF2 matches, but I think mixing it up a little bit can always be a good thing! What I want to achieve with Glass Attack is to create a new game mode that is not to bizarre for the Team Fortress 2 community, and hopefully if they like Glass Attack, they will be more willing to give the other mod game modes a try.
Please do keep checking up on this page to get updates about my mod! I will be continually posting new screenshots and big news on here. I am also running a little developer blog here. Check it out!

I'm sorry it took so long for me to post this on here, but Slag Gaming hosts Glass Attack on their Gamemode Madness servers ( Items.mechatheslag.net ). If you want to play, join the server and vote for Glass Attack to be the next gamemode in the rotation! Thank you to everyone who has followed Glass Attack over these years. Until a bigger following for the mod appears, it will most likely be hosted exclusively on the Slag Gaming servers. I am a member over at the community message boards ( Mechatheslag.net ) and if you have any map ideas, or have made your own maps, be sure to post about it on the forums to get it on the server. Also, if you have made your own glass map, upload it to gamebanana ( Gamebanana.com ) or if you want to learn how to make your own, check out the prefab ( Gamebanana.com ).
This will be the last news posted on here about the mod for the time being.
Thank you for the support and come play!

Will this mod be user-friendly??
what do you mean exactly?
He means that it says "Hello! How are you?" every time you enter the game, listens to your problems when you feel sad, gives you a present on your birthday, etc.
You know, the usual stuff user-friendly mods do.
ah, well then yes of course, why wouldn't this mod do that?
