Topic: Flag Radius

On some of the flags the capture radius makes catching that flag to easy, from the safety of behind a wall or in the distance behind a tree on Endor. Think the worst one has to be behind the Outpost flag, you don't even have to enter the compound to attempt to take the flag just sit at the rear wall. This makes defense of the flags pretty difficult. What do you guys think?. Is the radius spot on or should it be decreased a little? Would reducing the radius make flags easier to defend or impossible to take?

Re: Flag Radius

That large radius is not-good. And its easyer for flaghoppers, and its not fun. I hate it.

Yeah i know wat ya mean... On endor map, the imps bases roof. Speeders can just go on top
of the building's roof and cap the flag too. I get really frusturated when they keep capping from
there...

Re: Flag Radius

Don't think they can fix that one unless they put a railing around it and i can't see that happening. I asked for a railing on the balcony on the star destroyer, you know what they said? We'd  lean against them talking and not fight tongue

Re: Flag Radius

I know of a couple of such 'glitch' locations, too, but I won't share them here. I just hope most of them will be fixed by 1.2.

Just be aware, though, that on Mos Entha the radii are supposed to be big (AFAIK), meaning you have to patrol your control points.

Re: Flag Radius

Well the capture radius is fine. Just on Endor Strike Team, you can have a full division at the flag, and it will still be captured since for some reason the flag lowers, even though there is enemies there.
