Capture the flag - An online time waster!

[Ataros]

The only way I see it looking more or less attractive is capturing airfields by landing a supply plane on it after elimination of all the opposition. This is the good old Warbirds gameplay mode.

Otherwise only ground forces should capture territory (or a flag). Fortunatelly now we have an ingame Mission Menu and players or officers can command ground forces which flag to attack and issue other commands.

I hate CTF how it is done in RoF for instance, i.e. flying around a flag When I first saw it in RoF beta I deleted it immediately (came back only in 1 year, yes it hurt that much). But that's me

PS. Just imagine, each player is given one tank which he sends to capture some flags. Players would have to cooperate to to achieve success and cover their group of tanks together. It could be a fun sandbox mode.

I've seen the repka #2 server has naval and ground forces which can be supported or attacked as they capture airbases, is this not pretty much capture the flag?

great idea, but i think that this not a problem to game...

SLI, Engine grapich, Full Screen, sounds. it is very important tips to will resolve...

now this is a mode i would absolutely love to see come to life!! (maybe because warbirds would still have to be my favorite online sim ever )

This type of gameplay to me promotes squadron teamwork, high and low altitude raids, and some very very hectik/ hard fought battles

Well I have great fun in RoF on these 'missions' so why on earth not?!

Anything that adds to the appeal must be a good thing, yes?

I have no problem with the devs making this sort of game option (note the word 'option') if thats what some people want.As long as it did not take one minute away from the work that is needed to get CoD to where it was supposed to be at launch.
Personally I want to play a sim, not a game.
