Crits on CTF Capture

[Duck, Duck, Goose]

I win the game. The 10 second crits is kind of stupid, so I vote we set this to 0.

I did not know they attached a cvar to it, I figured they would do a typical Valve TF2 and try to force it on everyone 


But yes, I agree this should be zero, every cap should not give you 10sec of crits

Here Here, I agree, if at most 3 seconds of crits could be fun

[Versus]

wrong

should be like 15 minutes of crits

Apparently it's a hidden cvar. But I do a lot of reading around these updates, so I managed to find it.

Also, you have +300 karma. 8)

It helps prevent people from just turtling and it encourages people to cap. Maybe it should be set down a little but not off.

Problem: you get it once you cap. How to cap if turtling in the first place? And it would be a shitty turtle if you managed to cap. ???

Although something like 3 seconds would be fine, but 10 seconds like a Kritzkreig... a bit much.

I would argue the contrary, it might encourage more turtling, if a team caps a lot you are going to stick more on D so they don't get crits

Also crits don't effect sentry guns. 10 seconds is a LONG time in TF2, I believe that's the same amount of time a kruber lasts, and what would it do to hybrid maps with flags and points?

Then cut it down to like 5 seconds or something its a reward for the capping team and a punishment for the team which let the flag slip out of their fingers.

isnt losing the round the punishment for the team that lost the flag?

Since there are rumors that the cases have TF2 porn in them.

It's not like we play CTF at all, and when we do it's not serious.

Pretty much. I don't know why you make such a big deal out of it, it's just 10 seconds.

[/quote]Because we do play seriously sometimes. In fact, we play semi-seriously the majority of the time.

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.
