HELP!

I've never had this basic question answered and I don't think I'm being that dumb.

In MLG I notice that the flag objective marker on Sanctuary is Red atop a blue flag and vice-versa.
So as red team you head towards red marker and grab the blue flag.

Then in Countdown the flag objective marker is the SAME as the flag. So now it's the opposite. As red team you head towards the blue marker because it now sits atop the blue flag.

This may be incredibly simple but I for one have never understood this clearly.

I have googled extensively and can only find a few mentions of this but no answers are provided.

Many thanks in advance for some education :)

The flag color itself is irrelevant as far as the waypoints go. Red is enemy, and blue is ally.

This was the most confusing when MLG had Territories. I remember accidentally defending a hill that the other team had captured because it was the same color as my team. lulz
