My argument for why flying XV should be able to carry the flag

Post by evilgrins »

Anytime this has come up the counter-argument is it would be unfair to one team if the other team could take the flag and fly away, which has never made sense to me.

If one team can fly away in a vehicle with the flag then it follows so could the other. Imagine the dogfight battles!

Besides, the game has unreal in the title!

Now, this is not without precedent:

1. Strangelove & RX have flying vehicles:

2. Bat-wings lets players fly with the flag:

3. Even Rosebum's flying saucer can carry the flag:

Given all that, why not XV as well?

Why not? It seems XV is geard toward a different UT community which is probably why the resistance.

While I haven't tested it out yet, I am kind of curious if I had bat-wings and got in a jeep if I could then make the jeep fly...
