Due to the kills and other notifications on top in the screen it is very easy to miss if a flag is stolen, or returned. I believe there should be a little section in the upper right hand corner that says where the flag is. For example: both flags are at base. It shows a red flag and says base. It also shows a blue flag and says base. If Buddyf steals the red flag it will say red flag and show the name: Buddyf. Once the flag is scored the board will return to say Base.
Leave feedback!

Would that make it easier to catch the flag stealer because it says who took it?

Now I know that the flag is on the other side of the map instead of thinking it's in the base

Don't agree -- I like to play ninja, and take it while a fight is going on, so it mixes in with ____ killed ____.

I think there is something that should merely indicate whether the flag is on it's stand or not. If it is, a little symbol is there, if it isn't, the symbol changes. That way you know if you have to look for it. Saying who would be a bit too much info.

This is why you have teammates. If you die, it should be up to you and your teammates to communicate if you flag has been stolen. This is why I prefer CTF over PvP, teamwork is much harder to pull off.

I'm with Otu.
Sorry Buddy, that is just too much info to dislclose like that. You have to pay attention during a match. Missing info like that, that is that important is unacceptable and should not be handed to everyone.

I agree ctf isn't broken fine the way it is

You already know if other party flag is in one of your teammates' hands - there is a small symbol near the player name. I would like to have an indication if my flag is at base or stolen, but without any indication of who is the carrier, this would be an inappropriate info.
