    Hello brawlers! I've recently come up with a new idea for Mc-War, this idea is a new idea for the CTF gamemode.

    This is what happens currently in CTF:

    So when a player steals the enemy flag he must capture the flag by taking it back to his/her flag. However an enemy player can kill the player before they capture it, when they kill the player he/she drops the flag. The flag will respawn back at its original post.

    My idea:

    When one team steals the enemy team's flag and dies with it the team that stole the flag can resteal it. The flag however is not on the other team's post, it is sitting where the enemy player last died with it.
    But, the other team can recover the flag by taking it, before the enemy team gets it, however they must run it back to their post. If the flag is not recovered or restolen in 25 seconds it will respawn back to its post.

    I think this is a cool little idea to make CTF more fun in war.
    Feel free to comment below what you think, hope you like it. :smile:

    I'm kinda like, neutral on this idea. Sometimes, I can snipe a runner right before he reaches his flag or before he gets into cover, ruining his chance of capturing. It would add new gameplay opportunities but would also make the game more annoying at times. In addition, more effort needed to defend. It makes people want to ignore the objective even more. +-0

    This reminds me a lot of mcctf, but I agree with Brawler. Recovering the flag for your own team after it being dropped would be kind of annoying. Maybe the flag could despawn if it isn't picked up in a certain amount of seconds?

    Like they all said, recovering the flag would be quite annoying. :/ How about if the enemy player just kills the flag carrier and stands on top of the flag for it to be recovered? A lot more like normal CoD. Without heading back to your flag post.

    EDIT: If the flag isn't recovered or restolen in 25 seconds it will depsawn and respawn back to its post.

    Kind of like the idea m8...Kind of neutral for reasons stated above. But could add for some more interesting game play.

    I'd say more like 10 to 15 seconds, maybe a compass pointing to the flag when dropped? Also dying with the flag and then respawning with it will need fixed with this.

    This would pretty much destroy snipers' advantage in CTF.
    *snipes carrier*
    *teammates recover*
    *rince and repeat*

    EDIT: also, I think this might be a dupe thread.

    This is what CTF is supposed to be, that would make player play much more the objective for sure +1
