You want realism? Shooting a flag would destroy the flag.

Why should the flags be static? At this point they look like utter crap. They don't even react to their initial drop, ala T1 flag. And rather than always standing upright often times after a hard throw it'll magically stand erected at an angle? Why?

The hitbox doesn't seem to match the model, either.

Discing the flag is great for chasing/returning when you shoot beyond it and pop it back into yourself. I don't see how a flag wouldn't move when hit by a disc, but hey I'm not a dev.

Where the hell does it say I want it to be realistic? Reading comprehension.. get it! :banging:

Those are bugs yet to be fixed.

Realism or common sense to match the physics of everything else? Hmmm, I wonder...

You mean here, DigitalFiction?

Well I'm guessing that the grappler will be a necessity for cappers but not so much for defense.No. It's just a tool like any other. Some will use it, others won't. A capper might want it. An escort might want it too. Both for different reasons. Most of the cappers I see don't have the grappler though. There are places where it can be quite powerful, and others where it's less so. It is certainly not a panacea.

That was after someone said realism, I was saying it has nothing to do with realism, but common sense. Sorry it didn't come across that way.

Edit: I guess I shouldn't have said common sense at all since if that were true the packs and other items would move when shot, too. I was just trying to argue my opinion that flag discing should be in the game. Sorry for stirring shit up.

Haha... This thread must be haunting me IRL. I was sitting in the banks drive threw contemplating how to map the setting into a T2 or T:V map. Then I began thinking about attention to detail, like shooting the cigarette buds and what effect it would have on them, the pilars, etc. Sad sad sad...

I would say more scary then sad.
