Capture the Flag? Good idea? You decide!

Post » Wed Nov 25, 2009 8:41 am

I think it would be a cool idea to add a Capture the flag mode to Brink (CTF). I know I know some may so thats stuipid but i just thought Brink is all about team work and one problem Brink has is that it could use variety, mabye adding a CTF mode could help do this :) Better yet they could make it even better and ham it up like instead of flags have Important intel or some heavy ammo or medicine so it makes it harder to do because you will have to use 2 hands and need your team to WORK TOGETHER and help you get it outta there :)

What do you guys think? im all for something like this how about you?

Nah, I think it's a good idea if done right. It means both teams need to juggle Offense/Defense, and you could put up objectives along side it too. Maybe to get the flag you need to blow a wall, or hack a safe, or there could be side passages that certain classes need to open to get there faster if you want extra Exp.

I think you could brinkify it pretty well since it's already in the game in the Container City, Terminal, Refuel and other maps in terms of getting an item from point A to point B

Objectives feel like linear progression and variety from singleplayer games. DM, TDM, AND CTF are too repetitive, lack variety, and lack a sense of progression.

This is why it's not as fun as Assault mode (the current default mode of BRINK, originating in Unreal Tournament)
Although... all these game modes should be added cause they're fun anyway. Why not.

This and the TDM polls appear every couple of days ... and the community either has a majority of "NOs" or its evenly split between no and yes - so in other words, NO. Do a search before creating polls that have been covered repeatedly.

Any mission where you have to steal a case/object and move it to another point on the map is basically capture the flag so it's kind of already in there. I could possibly see them adding a neutral map with an objective that both sides could capture moving the game into the second phase. Here's an example:

Water is one of the most valuable resources on the ARK. Let's say for stories sake there are some water desalination plants that are in Resistance Control and others in Security control. The story of the map could have you fighting over a neutral spawn point of water filters in the middle of the map. If you get them back to your base, the map moves into phase two. Phase two could open another section of the map depending on who caught the objective. No idea what the second section would be. Just kind of illustrating how a neutral objective could be handled.


Most maps so far have been one side assaulting and one side defending. A more neutral map/scenario could be interesting to see.

brink will get boring hella fast if all you get to do is the campaign missions over and over again.
it needs TDM and other game modes, like CTF, and possibly domination.

I hope this game never gets TDM. It's not designed for it....unless it never shows k/d and the winning team is decided by overall points at the end :P.

Why couldn't this game have a TDM? or CTF? even if there is only 40% of people that want to see it, why not? video games are part of the service industry... you know, as in "serve us". Sorry, I'm quoting Accepted, but regardless. Why do some of you have to be so dang snarky with you posts? No means no? are you dumb? get off your self-imagined pedestal, and be openned to the ideas... with the very "Mirror's Edge" like free-running component in this game, i think a capture the flag would be a great addition.

I stated that CTF pretty much already exists and suggested a mode that is basically neutral ctf. Also I said I hope it never gets TDM. Not that it would be impossible for it to have it. I also suggested a TDM mode that I feel would be acceptable. I've stated everything as my individual opinion and not as an unassailable fact. That's what forums are for. They are a place to state your opinion on a subject. Just because my opinion may differ does not mean I am presenting it in a way that implies yours is inferior.

Yeah man,I'm getting tired of the same objectives. CTF would be all I need!

CTF it's objective but listen there has to be an evenly set out map for CTF so might as well through it in with the dlc
