dan/california Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Instead of chasing the silly flag back and around the way that flags should be counted is being able to land a dropship on the objective and get it out again. Yurch's new vehicle(the dropship killer) would play right into this. This allows for a number of scenario possibilities, each team can have an objective(flag) to defend or it could be scored on whoever got the most ships in and out of a single base, wreck, or other leftover pile of tech. Right now many people don't even bother shooting at rising dropships, but I bet they would learn. Their are also possibilities for asymmetric scenarios where one side has to get a ship in and out, and the other side just has to stop them. It is all about looting the ruins of a golden age, right.

dan/california Posted August 8, 2006 Author Share Posted August 8, 2006 It would play right into Jalinith's new scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aittam Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 i still think that a single mobile flag, one team chasing and the other defending is the best way to make CTF interesting vipers can be used to pick up the vehicle carring the flag already and still a poorly used technique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yurch Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 A common variation on CTF in FPS games is to switch the spawn location for each team but leave the flags in the same area. In dropteam's case, you could allow a team deployment time for a defense around the enemy flag. Not sure if it'd be too much different from a standard game, the bots tend to congregate in this manner already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan/california Posted August 8, 2006 Author Share Posted August 8, 2006 Go right ahead and fly a viper into Yurch's line of sight. I dare you, please take screenshots and or video of the burning wreck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yurch Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Hey now, the viper's a real bitch to hit, especially if it's hovering above your firing arc. Last thing I need is hotshot viper pilots trying to pick me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
