Talk:Capture the flag
From Academic Kids
I removed the following sentences from the FPS/CTF section:
- Compared to deathmatch CTF often features some sort of transportation tool. It can be used to travel faster and to reach areas which the player wouldn't be able to reach without a transportation tool.
What does that mean? I'm picturing vehicles, teleports, jetpacks, rocketjumping, etc., but I don't see that those things are characteristic of CTF. --Mrwojo 22:22, 29 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- The transportation tool is usually the size of a normal gun. You use it by firing a Transportation Module somewhere. When you want to use it to move, it brings you to whereever the TM is. In Unreal Tournament its called a translocator. LUDRAMAN | T 17:07, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Is the children's game simply a race to move the flag, or does each team have some mechanism (such as rugby tackles? :P) to hinder the opposition? Lupin 20:23, 23 May 2004 (UTC)
- When we played, we divided the playfield into two areas, each with a flag and a jail. You could tag someone from the opposite team in your territory and escort them to Jail. They could only be freed by a member of their own team (untagged) running through the jail area. Sometimes we'd hide the jail as carefully as we hid the flag.
