Capture the Flag

Capture The Flag (CTF): take the other team's flag and bring it back to your base.

Two teams, red and blue, each with a flag at their base. See events for voting, joining and prizes.

"Capture the blue team's flag and return it to your base."

How it works

• When you join you go into the team with fewer players (red first). Some maps give each team its own skin.
• Your base is a checkpoint at your own flag. Your flag and the enemy flag are shown on your map.
• When the event starts, everyone goes back to their team spawn, and gets the map's weapons (1000 ammo each). Then the countdown and GO.

The flags

• Taking the enemy flag: touch it. Your team sees that you have it, and the board shows the Flag Holder.
• Scoring: bring it to your own flag while your flag is at home: +1 point. Everyone sees "NAME brought the blue flag to their base!"
• "YOU CAN'T CAPTURE YOUR OWN FLAG": you can't take your own flag.
• Carrier dies or leaves: the flag drops where they were.
• Your own team touches your dropped flag: it goes home ("respawned the Blue Flag!").

Respawning and winning

• Dying doesn't put you out: you respawn at your team spawn, with 10 seconds of spawn protection.
• The first team to 2 points wins: "Red Team won the Capture The Flag Event!"
• When time runs out, the team with more points wins; an equal score is a tie.
• Team chat: start your message with : (for example :We got the flag!).

The prize is shared by the winning team's players still in the event.
