Donnerberg posted:Remember when they added CTF to the original Planetside? I have to beg to differ; LLU runs were some of the most intense encounters in Planetside. Going full Dukes of Hazzard in a Harasser or Thresher with enemy air squadrons hunting you was the poo poo.

Oh, I forgot the carrier could get into transports. I take back what I said then. It could have been worse. All I remembered was the LLU ball sitting on top of a corpse with a bunch of people around it.

The ctf looks like you have to bring the flag into the enemy spawn, which is interesting. Maybe with a neutral flag? Like some kind of crazy football mode.

Heaven Spacey posted:Looks like Hanamura. I don't recall any part of Hanamura with big red pillars in front of a patterned screen like that. It's not a very complex environment so it might have been whipped up just for the trailer, but that would be unusual. SHY NUDIST GRRL posted:The ctf looks like you have to bring the flag into the enemy spawn, which is interesting. Maybe with a neutral flag? Like some kind of crazy football mode. This make sense, since they're repurposing KOTH maps for it. A mode with two team flags that have to be run base-to-base would call for a different kind of layout, I think.

At least in the trailer, it looks like there are two flags, one for each team. Also, Winston ults and jumps while carrying the flag. Could be a promo bullshot, but it seems like movement abilities are not outright suppressed while being the flagrunner. Three weeks - sweet. Should be enough time to get every skin, emote and highlight intro via loot boxes or coins. What's with the dragon costume though? Tracer highlight intro asset? mcbexx fucked around with this message at 18:52 on Jan 24, 2017 |

Want those new Mercy and Sym skins. Also that Spanish language trailer was cool in that it's impressive they found voice actors whose voices sound remarkably similar to the 'canonical' English voice actors.

The only good CTF game I have ever played is Tribes. It's also perfect in every way so maybe theres a connection for what it takes to make CTF good?

Customary 20 bucks in boxes gave me the loving roadhog skin (I swear its always the first one to show up in these events for me) and Mei's Chang-e aside from a bunch of other purples and enough currency to get D.vas skin if I want it.

Overwatch CTF is real loving bad and you either snowball the poo poo out of the enemy team or get snowballed. The instant you lose the first flag you are completely hosed

The instant you lose the first flag you are completely hosed Yup, just have a DVA stand on point and have you whole team push them. Any damage you take while trying to cap the flag just resets the pickup counter.

Late reply on the TF2 comp conversation, but a pretty big reason that team comp was settled on so fast was because 5 CP maps were the maps being played the most often, meaning high damage, high mobility characters were the most useful picks in almost any situation on those maps. In other game modes there is a bit more variation in what classes teams will pick based on whether they are attacking or defending. I think having some more game modes that aren't either koth or attack/defend might go a long way towards having people more willing to break out other characters over the usual picks. For instance, a game mode that requires more mobility would limit Reinhardt's near universal usefulness I think.
