Competitive CTF Mapping Guidelines
Here's some basic guidelines which I believe to be true. Most of these rules may be obvious to many people who have played lots of CTF, as a lot of CTF maps follow similar patterns. However, I think pretty much every CTF map that exists in FF breaks at least 1 of these rules, and I believe every single one would be better if it didn't. So I didnt exactly describe what exists already, although the majority of (decent) CTF maps follow the majority of the rules. I don't see any reason why any of these rules should be broken. I consider them fundamental to making a decent competitive CTF map. There's still a massive scope for creativity and originality within these guidelines however. NOTE: This is only for competitive 4v4 / 8v8 clanstyle / pickup play, this is not intended to produce pub-friendly gameplay. In text format, since the picture will eventually be deleted no doubt:

This is very, very useful Shok. I've been thinking about making a comp CTF map, but I never really had an idea how the layout should work. Awesome guide. Thanks!
