1) i understand that many people would think this is a cheap idea but it definitely is realistic: while you're touching the flag in its base, the enemy should not be able to take it since your holding it in place - as simple as that.
2) if you have no guns (fists) and you punch the enemy flag carrier, he should drop the flag (as well as gun (if not in use)). and then you can pretty much instantly return it. However, since it might be glitchy and the enemy could jsut instantly get the falg again, it should be so that when punched the flag gets immediately returned.
I don't have the details worked out right now, but you get the general idea...

Hi zyxstand.... yeah personnaly both are usless, the flag holding, just BAM dead and get the flag and the punching, if they cant kill you with a gun what chance do they have with a fist. so no

Think its true this would be more realistic though... i dont know for sure about idea 1 if it could be of any use, but i support idea 2. Ive had enough of times where i got next to the EFC and gave a punch with my gun. Usually this doesnt kill him, but i think it would be nice to make the flag drop at such a situation.

both are interresting ideas, but do we really need'em? wouldn't it be a chain around your foot, rather than soething usefull?.. or fun..

a chain around two enemies' feet is realistic, even (fair), and disliked by both - but they both like that the other one has it. kind of like making a real and survival game - it'll keep two people from having too much control over the map (as in knowing where everyone is) but at the same time it's more REALISTIC (realistic being the keyword here (and hence capitalized)).

I don't like the way you worded the punch idea, although knocking it out sounds nice (not just fist, tho'; just any general melee). I propose the flag should fly forward or up as if the flag-carrier threw it in that direction (so it teleports through the air for a bit like flag-throwing).
