Frostbite flag thoughts.

by fumble • 10 Apr 2011, 21:05 • Journals
What are ya thoughts on the flag instead of cp.
Better or worse?
imo its much faster and makes the game more exciting, because allies can get the flag quickly but there is always the opportunity for axis to recap.

Quote by owzo It would make frost so much more enjoyable. Push out defence!


just for reference ...

It's actually been tested this evening in the Frostbite Sunday league. Seen only one but it seemed a bit unbalanced in advantage of the attacking side.
Parent
▼
fumble 10 Apr 2011, 22:27
not at all, they may get the flag quicker but its recappable as seen in queens vs overload.
Parent

DemHerbs 10 Apr 2011, 22:30
ok wish I could have seen em all, but is it in your opinion a positive change or not?
Parent
▼
fumble 10 Apr 2011, 22:32
it is a positive change imo

Artstar 10 Apr 2011, 22:20
can't believe people were complaining that it would be harder for allies =P
▼
Viperish 10 Apr 2011, 23:48
Well it would. You see, the only advantage would be one medic more on the capping part, since they wont be needing an engineer.

How many times have you gotten to CP, constructing it halfway only to get killed. Not too many. So the fast cap / slow construct doesn't really change a thing.

Also, when you cap it axis still have the chance to recap before allies spawn; hence making it alot harder. With CP axis couldn't do a thing.

You can recap flag = obviously harder for allies.

every time set on this frost cup was less than 3 mins so ;)

ENSJQM 11 Apr 2011, 01:46
doesnt mean shit since no-one can play frostbite -> fast times.
Parent
▼
Artstar 11 Apr 2011, 01:47
exactly so the flag shit couldn't possibly make any big difference =P
Parent
▼
ENSJQM 11 Apr 2011, 01:48
it will if teams learn to play frosbite. this wont happen most likely since the map is pure torture and no-one wants to play it
Parent
▼
Artstar 11 Apr 2011, 01:49
funny that everyone hates frostbite yet they're so reluctant to work with new/old unplayed maps ;d
Parent
▼
ENSJQM 11 Apr 2011, 01:57
i dont see how thats funny. no amount of work can make frostbite good for ET.
Parent
▼
Artstar 11 Apr 2011, 01:58
it's funny because frostbite is a map that has been chosen in cups for years even though everyone hates it, for the mere fact that they don't wanna try new maps.
Parent
▼
ENSJQM 11 Apr 2011, 02:01
i havent met anyone who doesnt want to try new maps, its more about the fact those few "new maps" that have been introduced have been shit.
Parent
▼
Artstar 11 Apr 2011, 02:02
this is true but if supply had been introduced 7 years later I can guarantee nobody would want to play it ;d
Parent
▼
ENSJQM 11 Apr 2011, 02:03
it would since most people can recognize good map when they see one and stick with it.
Parent
▼
Artstar 11 Apr 2011, 02:04
no way to know really but there have been a lot of maps over the years and like the newest map used in competition is bremen or something and that was made like 4 years ago :D

e: im sure that there would have been at least one or 2 playable maps other than the 5 or so that are used every season ;p

flag compared to cp is a change lol

ironic 11 Apr 2011, 00:54
its just like RtCW.........
Parent
▼
ant1y 11 Apr 2011, 00:57
yeah and compared to ET its a change. Im not following why theres a cp there still though
Parent
▼
ironic 11 Apr 2011, 00:58
map=shit anyways :D Flag just makes it a bit faster, thus less time of a shitty map
Parent

toxicccc 10 Apr 2011, 23:26
i like it :)
▼
Viperish 10 Apr 2011, 23:41
Personally I don't like this change, but it wont really matter as no one really plays frostbite.
▼
Griim 10 Apr 2011, 23:50
Still a horrible map tbh, ladders to obj = bad.

it was like et ice, i liked old frostbite. + that button at back should allow axis to press it, running through that door was brutal
▼
saKen 11 Apr 2011, 02:46
the script does allow axis to press it, however it's even worse than supply crane controls - you can only press it from a couple of angles it appears
