Re: Tips for Capture The Flag

How about more talking and examples, you could have said something about the walls and how to place them like when playing during space map you only need 3 walls with ladder side facing outside so they can't escape with the flag without destroying at least one wall.

And that players shouldn't spam walls in Acid sea because there are too many other routes or bypasses that makes them obsolete so they should save for other buildings.

And in Acid Sea the Garage is in very bad spot so as a defender it should be taken out so you can put 2 walls covering the ladder to prevent enemys reaching the flag.

You can still get out of that triangle base in Space without destroying anything. As long as you have 2 rift points.

An idea just occured to me. Let's say 2 of you are stuck in the triangle base and you've hit the 32 build limit.

 

It would be good if one could crouch down and the other could use him/her to get out.

 

It would be the ultimate sacrifice on the part of the person giving the boost as they will still be stuck there.

Re: Tips for Capture The Flag

I plan to cover things like that on another video. I just wanted to show the basics of CTF and when a Party System is out, I will do strategies. The 3 wall triangle is affective, but there is different ways that people can get out of it. I want to show something that is a little more complicated for the enemy to get close to the base and impossible to get out of.

Re: Tips for Capture The Flag

I disagree about being able to get out from the 3 wall blockade because there isn't any space to build something. And you can't get away from there.

Re: Tips for Capture The Flag

Try this next time you see the 3 wall triangle. Land a hawk inside the walls get the flag, and use the hawk to jump out of it. Of course you'll need a razorback after that, so I hope you join a good team.

Then I guess defenders are being stupid if they don't spot hawk at their flag. But everything depends on the circumstances.

There is always space to build a turret to jump onto and over the wall. You can't build the triangle small enough to stop a turret being placed inside. But as treefrog said with the stupid teams playing now you will most likely run out of buildings first.

 

Yesterday I had a team build 4 fortresses and 3 hawk pads. At home base when the pre-built buildings were still good. Needless to say I destroyed everyone of them. Left em with nothing!!!:Argh::Argh::Argh:
