Ummm I noticed the other day that you can flag cap quick with the chopper and some guys in the back. Anyone gonna fix that or do we get flag jumping again?

yeah i do it every now and then with a cobra but not tanks or blackhwaks. they move too slow and they are too bigger target to be sitting still on a flag.

I say let tanks beable to cap it. Some missions are with tanks only

i say only troops can cap it they must be ON or like 1 meter away from it. no more of this standing up against the wall and on the road so you dont get blown up by grenade BS.

The whole point of having a larger cap zone is that you need your squad with you to secure a perimeter. More realistic gameplay this way. :D

Imo, the bloody flags should be removed alltogether. They probably won't be but it is MY opinion that they should go.

I've always hated timed flag capture in games. It would be cool if you took a point by resupplying it with a special truck or destroying something.

Pick the CS n00bs. Obviously never played Desert Combat.

i actually wouldnt mind seeing a battle that was just a grinding firefight until tickets ran out, or maybe just an objective of getting a convoy or something through a city or a sort of CTF style 'get to the downed aircraft, retrieve hardware/pilot (not sure if AI could be done)/info and RTB' map

If the flags wont be removed, id say the best idea is to scrap the flag spawns, adds incentive to stay alive and can remove the need for longer respawns. or we could go halfway with Tex's idea, and respawns are only allowed at uncontested flags where there are enough friendlies present.

just a few thoughts
