This is as dumb as crit bonus in Arena. Yes, lets give the winning team a larger advantage. If ppl are going to turtle, there's really no stopping it. This is unneeded.

I approve of the crit buff if only for this reason.
Because it benefits me.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - Maxon - 08-14-2009
I could see a few seconds, maybe three total for quick boost, but ten is pretty long for everyone on the team to be crit powered and its a rather unnecessary buff.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - copulatingduck - 08-14-2009
Voted yes, just change it to 3-5 seconds

Re: Crits on CTF Capture - Fail Medic - 08-14-2009
The strategy mechanic of "hold off, don't cap yet" seems neat, but ten seconds of kritz? Â Really? Â Ten?
I would support some other boon, like... all medics on the field, bonus 25% - 50% into the ubercharge meter. Â Or, something simpler like everyone gets a magic refill of ammo. Â I want to see if there's something besides 10s kritz that would make "wait, wait, don't cap... OKAY CAP NOW" a neat twist on CTF.

ctf is a really homo turtle game anyway give the winners a chance to stack up 2 caps in the 30 minutes it takes to do that shit

Like a "holy shit that was fast" bonus? To encourage making sure there's a clear path? I'd go for that, too.

Keep crits, ban engies.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - KorJax - 08-14-2009
I like it. It makes CTF more fun since well, everyone on the team gets pretty much a 10-second "humilition" against the other team, which is enough incentive for me to want to cap.
Plus it prevents CTF stalemates, if you cap it gives you a short steamroll effect. CTF is NOTORIOUS for stalements and dead-end stuff, this crit boost spices things up a little.
Normally I'd just RTV any and all CTF maps but now I think I'll bother to play them a little.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - Coppanuva - 08-14-2009
I like it on. Though I do agree that if we could lower the length it would be better.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - backfire - 08-14-2009
Yeah, if we could lower it to 3 or 5 seconds I'd go with it, but I could see smaller ctf's like mach4 break with an entire team with crits for 10 seconds. In that time, you could run in, grab the flag and get out killing anyone who tries to stop you.

Not really. Even in CTF deathhall, which is the smallest map ever, that wasn't really an issue. Mostly because not everyone plays scouts, and sentries > scouts. And as we all know crits don't do anything against sentries.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - Versus - 08-14-2009
yeah, it wasn't an issue even in hallofdeath with a full server.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - Moosendoo - 08-14-2009
I like the 10 sec crits bonus. I wouldn't say it prevents turtle fortress, but it sure adds a little (much needed) excitement to ctf.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - commish - 08-15-2009
I'm trying to think why valve would have this in the first place... now valve has gone on to say that they do hate stalemate more than a sharp stick in the eye, so I think the reason why this is put in is so that they do make the game go quicker, I mean it's effective but I dunno I think it will lead to more rage quits...
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - Kenny Strife - 08-15-2009
I like it. I say, though, that maybe it needs a little more testing before the kritz is turned off. If it turns out to be an issue, shorten it or turn it off. If it really isn't much of an issue, don't.

It's like a reward for your team when you do good. I'm sure nobody complains when THEY get the crits, just when the other team does.
Re: Crits on CTF Capture - commish - 08-15-2009
but what happens when the game is 2 and 0 with still 20 mins of maptime left? I feel as if the rage on one side would be volcanic
