    Ships with the yellow slot have the very strategic option to ditch the yellow flag on to a friendly by using overboost or nitro. When used right it's an excellent method of prolonging the time your team has the enemy flag and making it much more difficult for your enemies to reclaim it.

    Shooters and Defenders unfortunately don't have this luxury so in their benefit, I'd like them to have the same option. A simple button to ditch the Flag should do it.

    Yes, please! An extra button would be great.

    And an option in battle chat for ‘I’m dropping the flag’ or something like that would be good.

    How about saying:
    "Help me!"
    "Capture!"
    I use that, and people who pay attention to the chat tend to catch my drift.

    If we are talking about Command then i would love to see a command "Retreat" Rather than "Negative"
    Or they can add sub-options under negative
    1) Name of all friendly players ( Negative + (Player Name) = Retreat (Player Name) )
    For Example if i'm going all alone in one direction or going straight into battle field then message would be like "Retreat super_sonic181".
    2) Long Press Negative which will simply mean "Retreat" like sometimes we get into a situation of Mortar spamming that time that message would be so useful rather than charging!

    Updated the title to better reflect the suggestion.

    A command like you have for "together" and "help" as per the suggestions certainly would be cool. This is for a button you press to drop the flag so a friendly can pick it up after you.
