So let me just start by saying I have nothing against Simplex (fun in Rumble and normal CTF), and that Action Sack is pretty much my favorite playlist in the game right now (which is why this is enough of an issue for me to post). All this awesome stuff like Fiesta, Rockets, and Binary Slayer, and then there’s FREAKING LIGHTNING CTF. Can someone explain why people vote for it so much? I mean it seems like 50% of the games I get in my favorite playlist are that gametype on that map. The last one I played all 4 people on the enemy team were camped outside the map in the 4 corners with autoturrets, instant killing anyone that spawned. Overall we had around 12 people join and quit through our team, and they were each about 40-3.
I just fail to see any reason anyone would want to play it, even for CTF/LightRifle boosting. Just 15 minutes of camping spawns, camping outside the map, camping with autoturrets, and watching your teammates get stuck on the flag’s pointless box base. So in short: fantastic playlist with a big steaming turd trying to smother it out…
