    So I chase a flagcarrier around, switch classes a couple times, and finally kill them. Sweet, we get the game-winning cap. And then the flag decides to fly 7 blocks away to some soldier and I get swarmed and killed. Rest of the game stalemates. Fantastic.

    Or let's say the enemy team is about to bring the winning cap around and I kill the flagcarrier 5 blocks away from their home flag, and the flag does a bit of a cheeky dive towards the pyro camping next to the flag and they cap it instantly.

    Anyone who plays recovery more than a little bit would have experienced this issue - flag dropping is too random. If I've gone to the effort of killing the flagcarrier, I should get the recov 100% of the time (unless it's a ranged kill). I shouldn't have to work to kill the enemy then hope to god that the flag spins my way.

    Now I'm certainly aware this issue was around during MCPVP days but it certainly wasn't as prevalent.

    Please just make the flag plant itself where the flagcarrier was killed (or even an instant recovery if the player that killed the flagcarrier is within a 5-6 block radius).

    Yea.... It's frustrating for me when the flag is instantly recovered because it flies into the opposite team. However, I can see where this would be annoying too...

    I used to know exactly where to move to get the flag after killing the flag carrier but now it seems a little buggy.
