CTF is back up

Now all we need are inventory saves

 

@NomNuggetNom Are you planning to change banners back to flag poles if majority wants it? Or are we going to stick to the banners? Other than that, nice job!

 

According to putty, the fountain might be put back in, but they have no intentions to re-instate flagposts.

 

That scoreboard is just awful, when talking about organization and colors, there's no lines to separate things and that makes everything looks ugly.
Here's a neat scoreboard from a server, that looks way cleaner and easier to read:



Other than that, CTF is "OK"

 

Why is there a flag timer? It makes games incredibly hard to win, and drags them out longer to where sometimes there is no winner

 

Wait... The flag timer when dropped allows for a chance for the team to pass off a flag at the risk of it being recovered. It's quite useful.
Unless you mean the pickup delay. That's to make it so you can charge into a flagroom and steal with super ease.

 

HYPEEEE topped off with bugs and sprinkled with glitches...

 

Actually it makes it so you cant jump in and out of a flag room, like other CTFs let you do. It also makes it almost impossible to grab the flag, the only reason why its really being grabbed right now is because ninja doesn't have the timer apparently

 

It isnt "almost impossible" to grab the flag. Without flag timers classes like assassin could speed 3 their way through open flag rooms, with very limited way in which they can be stopped. Flag timers are completely necessary

 

It's useful against ninja ghost capping and high mobility classes running in and out of the flag room. Capping has gotten a bit more difficult now because of the amount of players on a server, but the time has been reduced a bit too.

 

I don't think the flag timer makes it too difficult, I think it makes it balanced.

 

Vips and Mvps are able to use Elf and Mage.
Normally, Vips and Mvps do not have access to these kits.

 

Yes, there's a bug with /classname but not the class selector I believe.

 

In real life playing CTF, You don't have a "timer" you get in and get out.
Other servers I've played never had a timer.
I played MCPVP when it didn't have a timer
So I think the timer is just stupid. It makes you more likely to buy a class thats better than only using soldier. Because the only people I've been seeing getting the flags are people with better classes or when no one is guarding.

Which also sucks because I'm short on money and can't afford to buy classes right now, so I'm kinda just stuck flag guarding or trying and failing every time to get the flag.

Flag timer also makes it difficult to dodge pyros(And/or dwarfs) and get the flag, so you're most likely not gonna get the flag ever.

 

In real life CTF you don't have swords. If we change back to wool, the flag timer won't be an issue at all. If we stick with wool, well....

Soldier is actually one of the best capping classes. It's very good at avoiding everything. Heavy is also a great capping class, mainly if there is more stuff you need to tank. If you're having trouble with a pyro, you can go medic. The free classes are very good for capping.

 

Are the messages in the middle of your screen toggleable or affected by your chat opacity?

 

Is pickup delay going to be a thing still?

This was, umm, interesting to deal with last night...

 

Lets Go! Imma be rusty at pvp, but Lets go!

 

Is it intentional that you can't block while on the flag?

 

There is currently a bug with Ninja pick up right now, which is why it's instant like that. Should be fixed for tomorrow. Nom said he's also extending the radius so that you're entire hitbox doesn't have to intersect with the flags. Hopefully that should imitate the wool a bit better - we'll have to see.
