well most of the time I let someone kill me, that way i get revenge

[UltraJounin]

the only time i suicide is to protect the flag carrier when i dont have enough ammo or good enough aim

[Ajenthavoc]

i usually try to keep it for defending flag carrier or when i take the flag, then i use the dreaded "o" button (binded to suicide) or i blast a few rockets into the ground .. then again, there are the times where i die during duels/gang rapes...

Or you can open your .ini and find the key you want that is currently open and add the command:


g=suicide

i like to keep the bind far from my normal movement keys... last thing i need is acidentally pressing suicide 1 step away from capture

Stat-Ho

I'm bound to suicide now so watch out , I'm on a mission.

[phalanx]

does that make me a stat ho also?
(hmm flack ho
and stat ho)
any more for me to at to my ho list (for me)

generally stat hos are good at getting stats.

and it's not a points issue, if your out there playing for points your a crappy CTF player, sorry. The suicide option should be there for everyone, it can save caps, stop caps, pry other relics you NEED (speed is hard to pry with it..strength they kill you easy enough...but mainly defense.)

Good CTF players put their team first. If your a good player, and you play to help your team win...the points will come.

You want high tallys for yourself, go play DM. CTF is about puting those points on the board that count...the scoreboard.

The only score I want at SDP's is 6 BABY!

--Idle, 1) team 2) FC 3) me

Just a thought, but wouldn't 1) team , consist of 2) FC and 3) me .

[Idle Idol]

not, not at all. Sometimes whats best for the team doesn't necesarily revolve around the FC, though USUALLY it does. but sometimes not covering your FC in lieu of defedng your base direcly is more important, and therefore your helping the team as a whole rather than just your FC. beyond that, directly covering/giving speed to/guiding/taking shots for FC is what IS best for your team. and whats best for you personally is a lot of times not whats best for your team. I.e. not playing DM in the middle to wrack up huge scores when you could be actually defending the flag or covering the FC. That was the entire point of the post =)

Personally I never suicide, at least not on purpose. I don't even know what key is bound to suicide, still the default I think.

Situations people use the suicide thing and why I don't..

1) Suicide in the middle of the enemy base to clear it out. I don't do this because I much rather try to take the flag and make it as far as possible then go boom, letting my team take it from there. Or I will try to clear the enemy base with normal weapons as much as possible then if I happen to die then boom anyway. Suiciding to clear the base seems pointless to me, and only a tactic for getting frags or monster kills?

2) Suiciding to protect FC. Well, I trust my shot much more than vengeance. If I suicide then I may take the few pursuers out, but then I won't be there to protect my own FC if more show up.

3) Suiciding to kill enemy FC. Once again, I trust my shot. If I suicide I am relying on my team to be there to return the flag, I much rather attempt to kill the FC, and if I die, then boom anyway.

I really haven't seen a good situation to suicide boom. Let me know what you guys think, am I missing something?
