I was thinking about CTF in arena, and I thought of a potentially fun warzone variant.
Imagine Warzone with a neutral flag. It would be similar to warzone assault as in there are no AI.
For example, 12v12, flag is in the monument. The garages could still be there or they could be blocked off, I’m not sure what would work better. I think each team having a dedicated garage would be good though.
So the objective of the game would be to fight for the flag in the center of the map and take it to the enemy core for a victory. 3 to win or something like that. It would be like a huge team battle with req ctf and I think it would be a blast.
What are your opinions? Should we have a new warzone variant?

Love the idea, I have already thought about it, but I don’t think this would ever be implemented in H5 and its new warzone concept
I like the idea but with that many people I feel as though most games would go the distance. Now if it’s like 3 or 4 minutes a round then I could see it working. I always loved neutral flag.

I thought about two flag, but neutral flag will keep the battles hectic and focused kind of like war zone assault. 2 flag I imagine way more camping, like the base full of camo and shotguns.
Honestly though, either way I just want more variety. They could be doing so much more with Warzone IMO.
How about Warzone neutral CTF. The flag is in the garage and both teams must fight for it, and bring it back to their armory, after they’ve captured it of course. JK. That probably wouldn’t work, but I have thought about different Warzone game types such as Firefight/Warzone. Basically a larger Firefight where you can use reqs.
Add a flag just outside each Homebase in the middle of the tunnel that goes from door to door. Make it worth something like 50 to 75 points to capture. The flag is captured by returning to your own flag at your Homebase. This could slightly speed up games where one team is pinned down inside Homebase. Or, could add incentive for sneaking all the way back to the opposing Homebase.
Edit: If not clear, this mode I am hypothesizing about here is added to traditional Warzone. So, there would be standard scoring with Flags added.
What you just described is assault. Like grifball. However I think warzone is too big for this to work. Once you get it a charge of warthogs with the flag carrier in the back one. it is game over.

I was thinking 2 Flag but these are good points, and if you have to take to objective to the enemy base it should be a Bomb not a Flag. So basically Warzone Neutral Bomb

agreed core would need choke point/turrets to prevent this

I do feel they should add more (objectives) to Warzone, not just AI, etc. I can see adding a bomb to Warzone would be cool. Let’s say each home base has a bomb. Taking that bomb to an enemy base, be it garage, armory, etc and arming it will give you 25 points and if the base is unoccupied take half of the capture time off making for quick points and base capturing.
The only problem I see is the sheer number of invisible players that would exist in that game type. Kill enough to get an invisibility and you can get the flag out of a very well guarded base.
I think there was a larger thread on this some time ago, but I think the Warzone CTF idea could be quite enjoyable really. Whether 2-flag or neutral flag, chaos could ensue.
Maybe the flag needs to get carried to more points. From A to B and then C or even D. If your team doesn’t control Point B you can’t deliver the flag at point B and so on.
Or
There is a mode in Team Fortress 2, where you need to move a mine trolley across the map. In order to move that trolley you need at least 3 or more people around that trolley.
You could to that with a flag too.
Each base has a flag like in 2-flag CTF. Bosses still spawn like in regular Warzone. When killed, bosses drop a neutral flag that can also be returned to your base for a capture.
