can civs cap flags?

jackal22 · 07-23-2007, 03:39 PM

because if they can then helmand is broken.

i was playing the map and spotted 3 civs on top of one of the destroyable buildings that is placed slap bang ontop of a flag.

none of us could touch them since they pulled up their ropes and no one dared at the building and getting a long spawn.

so yeh, i was thinking since im not sure, can civs cap a flag? because if they can it makes some maps almost impossible.

Doesn't the engineer have a grappling hook?

If not, you should have just blown the building and call it collaterall damage!

Civilians can't capture flags.

On a related note, AAS insurgents maps do not work anymore. Civilians simply run up to the brits and get knifed, while the brits just mow down civilians.

I had played a game of Helmand yesterday. After an hour, both sides had more tickets then with what they started off with.

yeh its a problem when people dont bother id-ing them first.

thanks for the response. it was nagging at the back of my mind since every time we left that flag it would always turn back 20 mins later.

maybe they had some insurgents up there prone we couldnt see.
