    Idea 1: A turret that hangs from the ceiling of the flag rooms, a turret that automatically logs onto players and starts flooding them with arrows, but that can only happen if walking. Bad idea? Well if a player is defending and he hits the attacker, that's the turret's chance to pummel him. I know what your thinking, "What about engineers?" they are still useful, the problem is that sometimes there isn't a good spot for defending the flag. (That's my opinion :stuck_out_tongue:)

    Idea 2: Players who touch the flag get slowness 1 (effects soldiers) and can't use their abilities (does not effect soldiers) this way it would be easier to return the flag. No one likes chasing after the flag carrier because you run at the SAME SPEED in mc. It's no use chasing.

    Please don't flame me.

    How? Returning the flag is hard! Especially if there's a soldier. No one likes chasing the flag carrier when your running at the same speed as him/her. It's also frustrating when a ninja just pops in and tp's out.

    Then learn to deal with it, like a lot of other people have. There's no need to add more implementations simply because you can't support your team.

    @mob362 Turret? No. Slowness? No. Classes have roles. Pyro and dwarf are normally geared towards defense, archer and mage are mid fielders, soldier and medic are cappers, ninjas and assassins are recov'ers, heavy and fashionista are just there, and chemist is in a group called "Everything" because it literally does everything. Medic can also be grouped with necro and engineer in the support area, and elf is quickly becoming a capping class. I don't feel like there needs to be any changes to how the capping and defensive situation is.


    unless they wanna bring back the no flag poison soldier. I'd be down with that

    This isn't needed, if it's too difficult to recover the flag then don't. It wouldn't be very fun if it was extremely easy to recover.

    there's a reason for classes with additional speed (see chemist's buffs, ninja's speed 2 or assassin's speed boost). Especially ninja and assassin are recovery classes, taking care of that. Also, when you play tag in real life, you still catch someone eventually, don't you? I remember there being strategies such as shortcuts involved..^^

    And about the turrets - just no. No turrets. Turrets are bad. Turrets are evil. Also they'd be implemented differently on every map which would be complicated.

    Not trying to be rude or anything, but if you can't defend that well, you are just bad or defending isn't your thing, if so, try something else instead, because this, isn't needed.

    i agree with the spooky guy, classes already fulfill the things that you suggest. (engineer, ninja/assassin)

    Please play more CTF before you come trying to change the game by yourself. I'm not trying to be mean but this is probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard of on the forums.
