NOTE: I am not talking about "Flag Running/Bouncing.
For those of you who don't know what the objective toss is, it's when you let go of the flag, and it's kind of tossed a bit, rather than dropping straight to the ground like in Halo 3. This was in Halo 1 & 2 and in my experience, people only used this for CTF games. It was actually toned down for Halo 2, but it was still there.
Personally, I think the objective toss should be in Reach. In my opinion, it opened up a lot of strategies and made Objective games less monotonous.
We all know know Midship from Halo 2, right? One of my favorite strategies was to grab the flag, go right throught middle where the shotgun is, and toss the flag to a teammate standing by the "window" of our base and he'd score it.
I think it varies up matches and rather than having just a couple of ways to score a flag capture, it gives you many ways. It's one of the reasons why I like flag matches in Halo 1 & 2 a lot more than in Halo 3.
Thoughts?

I'm all for a Custom Game option that allows you to adjust "Flag Weight" or something like that. The less it weighs, the farther (and higher) you can toss it.
