    Something must be seriously wrong if there's always needs to be so many rules and class restrictions in team matches with refs crawling the match to enforce them.

    A lot of people advocate adding new refs, but the easier and not bandage solution would be to work on fixing the classes but yknow that's just logic /shrug

    I do support adding new refs. Mostly because by the time there's a major balance/rework change that actually does something is likely(?) going to happen in a few years.

    I firmly agree although i dont care for team stuff in all honesty. I believe all of these rules are enforced because classes can be used to advantages, for 2, ninja and dwarf, dwarf if given time can be seriously op, while ninja can ghost cap the flag.

    Why is this topic called the 'The State of CTF' when its just another post about team matches? And before someone corrects me, I do realize that this topic sort of relates to the need for numerous reworks to classes but it seems to be focused more on the debate about refs and matches rather than regular CTF gameplay.

    Because the need for so many rules show how balanced this game is.

    I mean, you're kind of right. It's always the insta-kill classes + Medic that always get the restrictions (when was the last time you saw a no Pyro limit in a match? It's just too OP.) I've also been trying to enforce Archer limits lately because they're a *****.

    So I guess you're right, something is obviously wrong.

    Archer, Pyro, Assassin, Dwarf, Engineer, Necro, Medic, Chemist, Soldier and sometimes Ninja are restricted in one way or another.

    That's over half the games classes. If CTF was made with the "everything is OP approach," it was sure done horribly.

    Also the fact that people are trying to play this game competetivley when the games hardly balanced for even casual play

    Guys, the game has been broken since it was made.

    I joke about it a lot, but this time I'm serious when I ask:
    Why do you guys continue to care about the state of this game? We could just as easily pick up and move to any other, better game.
    Why waste your time trying to fix this game when clearly even having coders hand-picked from the community who legitimately care about the game has resulted in basically f*ck all?

    I honestly think archer is completely necessary in team games and normally, it is balanced. I will say that archers shouldnt be able to snipe enemies within a 7 by 7 radius of spawn. I will also say that archers cant snipe enemies in a 7 by 7 radius of spawn too. Its an interesting tiny rework and makes it more fair and removes those spawn campers.

    I don't anymore. It's hard to. Why else do you think I put a minute into this post? I'm only even playing again once in a while to **** around with my friends now.

    Because CTF was once something we all enjoyed when we were new to this server. As we began to get more experienced and realise how broken the game truly is, we got pissed and wanted it to be as good as it used to. As well as this, staff keep on saying that "big things are coming soon" but in reality, they're probably not.

    The key word in that sentence is 'once'. At this point I find it amusing that you guys haven't just up and decided as a community to move to a better game.

    Like, I'm well aware that we have a very, very tight-knit community, and as much as I dislike the game I legitimately count many of you guys as friends, but I feel like at this point we've built up a community around a game that does not deserve it.

    And I mean no disrespect against coders like @NomNuggetNom, who I seriously respect for their dedication. I just wish that we could move on to showing such dedication to better, more deserving games, even beyond minecraft.

    I mean, could you see CTF'ers playing an MMO collectively as a guild or something? We'd fukkin' destroy!

    And, hello again @Tysonyoshi. People use it as a joke, but I like to think that it's a good measure of the community when people can say, seriously, that nobody ever leaves for long.

    I'm actually playing a server right now which is RPG and has guilds, if anyone wants the IP just PM me. I play it often, so does @stlast, @Rompotti and a few others.

    This is something I've been saying for a while, the fact that stuff has to be limited for team matches when its available in a much higher quantity in normal games really speaks about how balanced the game is.
