The best way to improve VCTF is to help players from other game modes feel comfortable in there. When I got tired of Warfare, I started playing more VCTF. People like Two-Fase were quick to lend a hand and show me the ropes. The PCX guys, Aquaknot and Medic are also quick to help out new players and they are very patient. When SMP was still around, TRU played them in VCTF. After they completely dismantled us, Prodigy was kind enough to show my team how they did it. -That kind of sportsmanship fosters the development of honorable players which in turn will help attract even more to the mode. Model yourself after those mentioned and VCTF will be just fine.
When I stopped bumping into them on VCTF pubs and got stuck playing with glitchers and team-stackers, I gave up on VCTF.

Thats pretty much what i was getting at. A lot of people try vctf and decide they don't like it. Almost all of them talk about being pancaked a lot. 1 thing that most people would rather have is smaller games. Im supprised that no one commented on a tourney or league? Either one should create a lot of interest. There was a lot of ggs yesterday with a lot of good players. It was fun.

you dont need to go as far as tournies or leagues to get smaller games.. PUG chats would work fine but i honestly think they have very little chance of success with vctf..
 
just make a chat room on psn, invite players in it and when enough people are around set up a match, password the server and play.. it works great for the ctf/tdm communities.
 
the reason why i dont see it taking off for vctf is.. 1. alot of the vctf players are newer to the game.. and all they care about is pub status, 2. alot of the old heads that have been playing it since the beginning consider PUBS to be the thing to do.
 
its not impossible by any means, and i could see it happening and i would definetly participate and i know bum and weezy would also, so if someone does make a PUG chat for vctf send me an invite

Getting pancaked is part of the game. If someone like ChrisC is in the Fury, I know I'm getting pancaked. It isn't a lost cause. I have seen some of the great warfare players have success in VCTF. Chisoxx is great in the darkwalker or goliath in VCTF. He makes it very difficult. Trying to overcome the obstacle of someone owning you in he fury or goliath is what makes it fun. If it were easy, everyone would do it.
 
I also think Deadaim's idea is a good one. I'm not big on PSN chats, but that is only because my time spent on the PS3 is limited, so I like to just get in and play. For those with more time though, it seems like it could work.

heres a few ideas: some new decent maps would be a start!!! Maybe make some servers classic vctf with unlocked vehicles would be funny.
it would be fun to try vctf with the teleporter but somehow still have the hoverboard 2?? Sounds weird but just think about it a bit?

If some maps had certain nodes to get vehicles instead of just being able to just jump straight into (d/walker necro/containment) that might make it a bit easier to flag run? Maybe to once that team has that node it could be a spawn point to?

it mainly needs some decent maps that don't make it too easy to so called camp vehicles on or around the flag.elevated flags like on necro prove this.

I personally think this mode needs nodes and a core lol!!

I myself don't really think it needs much improvement as of how the game is to B play i haven't gotten bored of it much the only small negative about it would B the small choices we have 3 maps it's always Necropolise, SandStorm, Suspens, & sometimes Rails but i haven't seen it in N E server lately :(

lol Its Suspense Necris Tuna. There's no spider mines on Suspense. Necropolis is the main map that people sneak the Nightshade in your base and place mines at your spawnpoints. Its just as pathetic as parking a tank or hellbender on the flag.

5v5 or 6v6 Pugs with all good players would be great. It would be easy to get going too. i don't know if a chatroom is needed though? oOPS server is in Georgia and Stranded is already on the oOPS server and its set to 6v6 already. We could do some pugs on it i guess? I was about to ask BenWa to set the oOPS server to 4v4 ctf but i guess that can wait. I know Seifer and BenWa would play in smaller pugs. VideoGamePrince even said last night he would try some vctf on a smaller server and he don't play vctf period. When Seifer gets online later today we will try and do a pug on the oOPS server and see how it goes.

Im telling you if you want to see something hillarious put the spidermines on someones head. You do it in SS just have them stand below you at the small wall next to the flak tower then throw the spidermines right on there head. it might take a couple of tries. It will shock the hell out of the campers lol

Lol it's DeadAim. Damn u see all kinds of peeps in here. You can improve VCTF by dropping UT4 so all the good players will come back to the series.
 
How come Modern Warfare gets updates twice a year and UT don't get nothin for 3-4 years???
