Rocket Box is a variant of Infection, but unlike the countless maps/gametypes of Infection you've undoubtedly played before, this is the first time it has ever been played the way this map/gametype plays.

Humans spawn in an enclosed section of Avalanche, littered with cover in the form of walls, bridges, watchtower bases, and a couple of open single boxes. They spawn with the magnum, as well as a shotgun, both with infinite ammunition, have no radar, and have 150% damage resistance.

The Infected spawn in an enclosed section of their own, armed with a rocket launcher and an energy sword, with Enhanced Radar, and the only way out of here is via a teleport. This teleport will bring the Infected to 1 of 8 random places. 7 of these places are inside a closed double box, the same double boxes that make up the 3 story wall that enclose the Human spawn area. From in this box, it will appear to you as if you are outside, no walls or ceilings, but there are invisible barriers keeping you in. You can shoot out, but the Humans cannot shoot in. In fact, the Humans don't even know which box you're in! If you cannot get an angle on a Human from in this box, go through the teleport again and it will bring you inside another random double box. Or, it will bring you to the 8th teleport exit, which is located just beyond the cliff on a floating platform (be careful and try not to fall off!). On this platform, the Humans can shoot at you, but they cannot get to this platform, nor can you get to the Human spawn area.

The game is consisted of 3 rounds, with each round lasting 5 minutes each.

90 seconds into the round, 2 custom powerups appear, which give you Enhanced Radar (so as to let you know where the rockets are coming from), a movement speed of 125%, and will last only 30 seconds.

3 minutes in is where it gets intense however. For one, a man cannon appears where that 8th teleport exit is, giving the Infected the chance to finally enter the Human spawn area and use the sword. And secondly, night falls, adding that extra sense of suspense. Don't worry too much about the dark however, 4 flares also spawn, and this helps light up the night. These don't respawn, so use them wisely.

Points given are as follows:
3 points for infecting a Human
1 point for killing an Infected
10 points for being the Last Man Standing
-1 points for a suicide

Friendly fire is turned OFF, and the player with the most points at the end of the round will be chosen as the Infected during the next round.
