There is one thing I hate about defending flags. If anyone gets any progress on the flag being captured, the progress doesn't go back down. This problem can be abused by rushers, badly. If this is fixed on the other hand the only way to get the flag is skill. The progress could also go down 1 second of work on a flag for every 10 seconds. That way if you get some work done, it will help. If you defend the flag good enough you won't loose it.
I like this idea, although if a team is defending a flag they would have people around it enough for this not to matter.
Well you can make it so progress with flag capture goes away like, 1 second of flag capturing power goes away every 10 seconds. That way the defender won't have some unfair advantage they need to get by and the captures do have something going for them.
this is really stupid, but.. are you sure? I cannot once remember getting to a flag and it already being half way up, except for when there was already a teammate there. Infact, I'm fairly sure that if you go out of the capture zone, it completely resets, which is damn anoying. I may be crazy and wrong. please point out. but I have never seen the capture thing linger, as far as i can remember. and i can remember several times when it hasn't.
No, it actually stays at the already captured part. This is why I get so pissed when people let enemies through to the flag. :p
