Capture the flag (CTF)
In this mode, there are two teams (Blue and Red). There is a time limit of 5 minutes at the end of which the team with most points is the winner.
Each team have to defend their own Flag and must steal the enemy Flag to make points.
If at the end of the 5 minutes teams have the same score, the game will switch to "golden flag" phase: during this phase the first team to score a point wins the game.
Instagib Capture the flag (igCTF)
igCTF rules are the identical to the normal CTF mode, the differences are the presence of the same class for both teams and daylight illumination.
* For more details, see the information about instagib (IG) gamemode.
Tips about CTF and igCTF
- Remember, every time your Flag is stolen, the opposing team scores one point.
- If the Flag Carrier is killed, the flag falls to the ground and can be picked up again within 15 seconds, if no one picks it up will return automatically to the respective base.
- You can not collect your own flag from the ground but you have to protect it until it respawns automatically to your base.
- Think about what you are doing, rushing the enemy base will result in a easy enemy flag capture, but leaving your own flag unprotected is very risky.
- Try to intercept the flag carrying enemy before he reaches the capture point.
