In MW4 I lived and died daily for Capture the Flag and I am sure that there are several players and a few CTF factions that love it as much as I do. Please consider adding CTF as a game mode sooner than later. Thanks!

hum a CTF mode where we can put our entire mech bay on the battle? ex my first mech i choose to pilot is a jehny i die so my jehny is locked till the end of the match. i then choose to pilot my commando i get the flag and make it partly back to base and die. i have a third life to choose another mech from the bay. i know you only get one or two mechs to start so mabey a auto team setting where teams are ballanced so the noobs are mixed with experience players?

feel free to expand on the idea but i sorta like this.

I think capture the flag is a solid game mode, in that it forces both teams to play both offense and defense in order to win. It seems like the existing game modes don't really have that.

To me, the nature of CTF is that it is OBJECTIVE based gameplay that doesn't just rely on kills alone. I'm a BIG proponent on that kind of play.

That's an interesting Idea about setting it up like Dropship Mode. Hadn't considered that.

In MW4 we just designed Mechs for CTF play only. These typically included Defenders, Interceptors/Chasers, and Runners. The league matches were usually best of 3 matches, infinite re-spawn, and the first team to capture 3 flags in a match was declared the winner. I could see CTF mode being set up with more than one type of option for how the game plays. I think there could be X number of flags wins or most flags after X time wins. I do not think CTF can be played well without some form of re-spawn, whether infinite or like Dropship Mode. It will be interesting to see how they decide to set it up.
