Guild CTF
 

GUILD CTF
I came up with this idea when CTF first came out... Never happened... Going to try again. Especially because new leaderboards make it even more possible.

Multiple CTF Rooms
-like Rufus did for archery, make many rooms until it dies down then delete most of them.

Same as Guild spar
-Make CTF a 5vs5 or 6vs6 thing
-Que button or match making(if graal can even do that)
-Score based on quantity, but allow there to be a skill based score on the guild menu like guild spar

Why?
The reason the graal spar community is so strong is because it takes skill. PK takes skill, but towering/having the MOST PK's For the season is a community based on time, not much skill. Frankly, guilds have nothing new to do. Players should be given more things to do with friends other then talk,spar, and PK. Guild CTF would be the best thing for the server to add. People who complain about server lag, please, that will go away after a few days when most people get tired of it. That's when the staff could introduce a CTF Tourny which would create a CTF community of skilled CTF players... Summer CTF Tournament Predictions Thread ;)? And this is very possible to do..

Theres like 40 threads on this topic.
so no its not getting added

I haven't seen a single person other than myself post it and I haven't posted it for 2 years.

It should happen but not now just wait 90 years

i was told that CTF sucked and that we shouldn't waste time on it.

every time I went there, I never saw anyone playing it
I only remember it being used for boosting so I don't get why there was a fuss when it was closed

it could be improved and made better, but there wasn't anything special about the old CTF

"Bring CTF back" and other variations of what you can do with CTF has indeed been suggested quite a bit. I'd estimate about 7 threads in the past 6 months. I'm just saying.

That CTF did suck it was only used for boosting and was then shut down for that reason. So how about making a Team CTF like suggested just now and make it worth doing?

We could give out gralat prizes, but not too much; for the more wins the higer the gralats. Hell why not a event involving it aswell for a hat and gralats. Just an thought.

IDK man every time sparring ("apparently the only thing that requires skills in classic") is brought up all I hear is complaining about players abusing lag, delays, or speed cheats. Anytime you ask someone who they think are skilled they just name their friends or people they don't have issues with. They might name one of the people they dislike, but they will add a negative comment about them.


The reason igraal is so strong in general is because of all the socializing scrubs afk'ng around servers. What I like to call the swag faqs


If dusty wouldn't have said it was closed for boosting none of you noobs would know that. Hard to know what's going on when you don't go in there. AND CTF doesn't suck it's actually fun. I didn't give it any thought until a couple months before it was closed and it was fun.

I use to play ctf all the time got sad went it left :( but I'd definitely like a more competitive scene of it. My issue with the old ctf was it was less of like out playing the team cause its like a one way thing when walking up or down the stairs like you can't even get through if someone lagged on the stairs so like make it something like 10v10 in a actual tourney but like more places to go and outplay I think it would a good game for strategy if done properly.

Irrelevant to whether or not they should add a Guild CTF

CTF sucked because there were no motives to do it. You could just walk in and join a random team with random people.
Guild spar is sucessful because you do it with your Guild.
If CTF was added there would be more guilds of friends sticking together Pking together, sparing together, and doing CTF together. It would be fun to add and there's no reason why it hasn't been added already.

Prizes are a fun idea but staff historically don't add prizes to spar, pk, and towers unless it's 1,000 hours, or gst.

With that said, it doesn't matter. If they added a quantity based leaderboard for CTF and later added a CTF tournemant it would become a huge thing to do. If you disagree it's just because you don't like ctf. Their are tons of players who love CTF it just needs to be done correctly... With guilds... NOT randoms...

I posted a forum about this shortly after graalians was released. So tbh idc, Ive wanted this for a long time.

ps, bless Rufus and fp4 for being the only dev staff on iclassic(that I know of) adding things to progress the game other than graphics. It's too bad the biggest server on graal doesn't have 10-15 skilled developers

CTF was shut down back when the server still had like 2500 max. Now were hitting 4000 players. If it gets a proper revamp (along with fixing the boosting/other glitches), Im sure it would see more activity.

Even if it was added...
-It was playing with randoms
-with no real rewards
-on a weird map that was kind of glitchy
Much better if it was
-used for guilds (6vs6? Or something)
-had a guild CTF scoreboard
-had multi rooms with a que until it dies down, then the excess rooms are deleted

Cant there just be a way where kills aren't gained when doing ctf? Kind of like at somebodys house, you never gain any kills.

Actually correction I was there, dusty didnt have to tell me what happened or its reason of closing. Im sure id notice some guy sitting in spawn slashing his sword at a player spawning in from dying in CTF. I didnt say CTF sucked in general, the version thats so "fun" had no one in there and was extremely boring.

I think they should make it so you get kills whilst in the fighting zone againt the teams, and unable to get any on the inside of a base.
