I still think the CTF game is stupid. This is their sole exclusive content. You're telling me that they worked months on a game that doesn't seem that balanced at all? You can have any class with superior mobility basically win the game. There isn't a point in bringing warriors or Archers or Buccaneers, who have crap mobility (in comparison to any character with a flash jump or a teleport skill). And they can't defend anything because you can't kill the enemy character fast enough unless you can catch up with them and they lag like crazy (as most people should). If it were me, I'd have made it more like a real capture the flag:
Make every character the same speed- it evens the playing field. Not 100% speed, but maybe 110% speed and 110% jump. Haste type skills (and maybe mobility enhancers like FJ and tele get nerfed a little bit/cooldown) are limited to the characters that own the buff (goes for decent haste as well). This provides an advantage as in real CTF- some people are faster than others, but there are other people who are better defenders.
Keep the platforms as it makes things more challenging- but make it 1 touch (using the normal attack so you have to be in melee range instead of a range character just sniping the person). The flag is dropped exactly where it is and either party can pick it up. Invincible to tags for 2 seconds so people can't just spam the attack button and make each other drop the flag indefinitely.
You can kill any person on your side of the field with any skills that you posses. Killed person goes to Opponent's "jail" at the top of the screen, accessible by staircase instead of floating plats. If the player can get to the jail without dying, they get auto-tele'd back to their goal with the person who has been in jail the longest. You cannot send someone to jail when you're on their side of the field (obviously). HP/def based like PvP.
To win get the most flags into your goal as possible in the allotted time. after each flag is won, the flags reset.
I don't know about you guys, but i think mine would be more challenging than Nexon's (too challenging perhaps for most people). I guess that's why Nexon didn't make it like a real capture the flag game.
