Who says that Capture the Flag event is "Yellow Boat Event"?

    Okay. I am seeing posts here which says this. e.g.
    https://forum.battlebay.net/threads/v-3-1-capture-the-flag.21039/page-10#post-162579

    I am even seeing lots of yellow boats in the event. But, I believe this is stupid.

    Overboost and Nitro won't work to carry the flag speedily. Talking about little bit speed, it can easily be countered by blue speed boost items on other ships. Here, weapons can be useful if people learn where to use those weapons.

    See these:

    Nitro won't, OB will. Also, I've had some very easy caps in my speeder.

    Like really, I got a 3 flag cap without breaking a sweat.

    Really? That sounds like a bug, considering it's not supposed to:

    If you USE as in if you ACTIVATE, I guess? I heard from Zeus that they spent quite a while testing the mode, I'm sure they tested the interaction of OB with the flag heavily.

    I think the ship balance is pretty good for this event. Every ship seems to have their respective pros and cons, but all are useful.

    I agree.
    • Defenders and selfish Healers have got enormous health to defend or capture flags.
    • Speeders and Enforcers have got speed and annoyance to capture enemy flags.
    • Shooters have got weapons to defend or escort flags.
    • Philanthropic Healers are angels who can escort flags or do their usual protect-all things.
    Yeah, Battle Bay team definitely gave lots of thought to conceive this.
