CtF Reform

[Solid]

Is CtF actually CtF?

Does everyone know what CtF stand for? - Capture the Flag

Does AL's 'CtF' actually involve fighting to defend or capture the flag? - Obviously not.
AL's CtF consists of gaining kills and deaths, flags are done for the luxury of an AP.

To fix this fake 'CtF' mode, I think that there is a solution.

Every time your teammate scores a flag, you get a flag added to your stats, BUT every time the enemy scores a flag - a flag is subtracted from your stats.

This would motivate players to actually flag and defend their flag resulting in an actual 'CtF' match.

Thoughts?

That's a really competitive way of encourage old CTF and remove free flagging. I like it.

I have heard many ctf'ers complain about this issue, sounds like a good suggestion.

Truth is, no one is a ctf'er they are tdm'ers in CtF

[Candylicks]

Ya it was same in pl. We all just killed each other and the real ctf'ers yelled and asked us to leave. Idk what the solution is here but the Aps perpetuate the issue for Al.

At least you are opening up the door for some suggestions, I hope they are taken into consideration. Pvp needs revamp here for sure, starting with ctf.

sounds like a very solid idea, will give some people motivation to "CTF" i think, lets say its 5v5 and blue scores a flag would the flag be subtracted from everybody on the red side?

Im curious as to how this will affect the current leaderboards. If implemented, then the people who have maxed APs will likely stay on top for as long as they stay ingame to get the new achievements.

1+ ! best way to end free flaging

What if someone has 0 flags? Not a bad thought though, really amazing.

If someone has 0 flags, then they will begin their CtF experience the legitimate way, with an actual CtF game type.

Yes, I know that.. I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say. It's a great idea and I completely support it.

You say that one flag will be deducted if the opposition scores.. so if someone has 0 and then the opposition scores?

Yeah that was pretty fun actually.

I don't PvP much but it would be nice instead of kills/deaths or flags to just have games won in CTF and games won in tdm.

It is a good suggestion but it still doesnt solve the kill/death in ctf.
If devs want so even if many people will cry, the best solution is to change ctf kill/death to win/lose plus flag counts.

Kill : 1m. --- Win : 10
Death: 0 --- Lose: 10
Flag : 2k --- Flag: 3

The problem with this suggestion is that it will result in people leaving games when it becomes obvious they are on the losing side. So games will empty out really fast.

I solution is to add a new stats called "Team Wins" and "Team Losses". Here is how it works:

1) If you leave a game in the middle and your team wins, you do NOT get a win.

2) If you leave a game in the middle and your team loses, you DO get a loss

3) If you join a game in the middle and your team is already losing, then you do NOT get a loss if your team ends up losing

4) If you join a game in the middle and your team wins, then you DO get a win (unless you leave before it ends)


This will encourage team work, and will encourage players not to leave during a game even if their team is behind.

That will be kinda hard to implement...

over all with energizerics suggestions and ctfs idea...i guess this can work

[epicrrr]

Everybody gang the flagger lol,this could work needs a lot of feedback; and a good planning this could enhance or totally destroy the PVP scene. We at low level dont really care so if this gets implemented i suggest only 40-41 (endgame).
