From the E3 preview and stuff that I've read, it looks like the ability to drive vehicles while holding the flag has been removed. Does anybody think this is a good idea? For the classical 4v4 CTF match it seems like it takes away a good part of the strategy. Just wanted to see what everybody else thought about that.

Just want to note that I do know that anything shown so far could be changed. So if they don't include this that will be cool with me.

Toggle option: the ability to drive and carry the flag can be turned on and off

I dont know... seems like the new way would make teamwork more nesseccary.... making teams come up with new & different strategies. I think it will be cool.

i think they should not allow flag bearers to drive vehicles, but be able to ride in them (they are allowed to ride in them tho) It adds more strategy to gameplay which makes it funnier.

/\ Yeah, I totally agree... I assumed thats what he meant (that you can still ride as a passenger).

I agree with that. More strategies and different ideas is good. I just think that the option should be left open if you run out of players and end up just playing 2v2 or something like that.

a toggle option would be nice. it would add some challenge, but then you could make it so you can drive with the flag whenever.

I meant toggle option to be something like choosing whether or not to have unlimited grenades. You could turn the ability on or off. Sorry, should have explained that one better.

nah, i dont like the idea of having the option at all.... I think, if they arent using teamwork, they should have to run the distance.

It seems fair to me!

i think you should be able to turn it on and off

because what happens when you are playing against 1-2 other people you have no chance to even get out of their base let alone makt the cross country journey to your base and then if they have your flag you cant win

I agree... I thought he was just saying its physically impossible to drive with a huge flag. I was just pointing out that you already drive with huge weapons.. But yeah, I think that adds to the teamwork aspect.
