What are some ways that vctf can be improved? How can we get more people to like vctf? Do you think people would be interested in a vctf tourney or league?
                     
                        improve vctf
stop parking tank and hellbender on the flag maybe?

Get more people to run the flag maybe?
             
               Get more people playing
Stop pancaking footmode players so much maybe?

Teach footmode players some flag runs maybe?

Teach footmode players how to use the longbow maybe?

Teach duelers to use weapons other then just sniper and shock maybe?

A vctf tourney or league would be great if people would show up and play. it could even be a clan tourney or league.

^^^^
they can b very useful if placed correctly...they can slow the enemy down and/or damage/destroy their vehicles which, as a flag runner, can give u maybe some extra time to slip away.

?

obviously they are effective, they are just a cheap lame weapon anyhow.. require no work from the player yet provide a constant reward of kills.
 
dont i always hear vehicle players b****ing about spawn killing? so how is dropping a spider mine on a spawn all game cool ?

try getting the spidermines on SandStorm in a 8v8 on a UK host lol there like the golden egg of vctf. if you can get them and live to place them? your reward is about 5 or 6 kills. If you place them right you can help your Fury pilot and keep the campers buisy for a moment allowing you to snatch the flag. And when you have a Nemisis,Darkwalker and 4 campers shooting at the flag spidermines really help! putting them on spawnpoints is a waste! There's more strategic places to put them even on Necropolis.

iv nvr seen spiders literally dropped on a player spawn, favorite spots in SS include shield vest/fury, jump boots, longbow tower 2nd & 3rd lvl, and redeemer. if u see spiders anywahere else, chance are the person was under attack and had 2 place them

not to mention spiders are generally easy to avoid even when its on the flag.
I think theyre fine in vctf, its a vehicle mode having them makes sense, even though some people use them like douches ... they just hurt their teams cause in a cheap move to score easy points

ah yes, i forgot about Necropolis...i don't like it, i guess the thing caught on tho cuz it happens more frequently now. but if u know they r there, its still relatively simple to avoid them. losn all that health is a b**** tho

mmm, i hear that Devil's server has custom maps if i'm not wrong, but this server got 400 of PING, a lot of lag in the server. damn, anyway, sometimes i made a host with custom maps i got 39 custom maps total and just 23 installed at the moment i'm lazy to install the rest of VCTF so, the maximun player in my host are 8, cuz it can do to my connetion fall down.

Honestly, I think that Spidermines should disappear quicker depending on how many people pass by.  I could be wrong, but they seem to last for a certain amount of time, not going away quicker when more people attract the spiders and either shaft (or kill them by other means) them or die.  However, I can only imagine how funny it must be to be walking along, then all of the sudden, an enemy Manta passes by but missed you.. then you hear that shriek of the spiders and.. dead..  Honestly though, in Necropolis or any other level with a Nightshade or Stealthbender, I'd much rather place them in the middle or on the two narrow pathways (where the Vipers roam) next to the base, right next to an EMP mine.

Oh, and I got another idea.. Four-Way VCTF!  Mass Confusion ftw! Big smile j/k

Actually, if that was the case, I'd rather it be like in TF2, where you can still score even when your flag/ intelligence is taken.  I actually do kind of miss hearing "Success!  You have secured the enemy intelligence." then "You failed!  The enemy has secured your intelligence." soon after.

You really cant expect too improve VCTF much in public servers...Ppl will do as they plz since they paid for this game...If you really want to improve this mode organize games with locked servers & good players who know how too play this mode right.
