Even though players have been able to recover a dropped flag while hauling the enemy\u2019s before, the bug can put flag carriers in a precarious situation since it doesn\u2019t give them a way to unload the objective at its place. In Capture the Flag, you\u2019re only able to capture a point for your team if you bring the enemy\u2019s flag to base and link up with your own \u2013 making the glitch a costly error in tight situations. A gameplay clip from Reddit user \u2018bluefishpoop\u2019 shows the bug at work since the player managed to sneak their objective from the enemy team but was stopped in their tracks moments later. En route to their spawn, they came across the enemy flag carrier. After notching a quick double kill, they ran over their flag to return it to their base but the game was not registering the action. Instead, they tried to run over it a few times before giving up on the endeavor, since they were now taking shots from enemies who managed to catch up to the player. \u201cYou used to be able to do this,\u201d they explained. \u201cWhen playing CTF and you are carrying the enemy flag, if you try and return your team flag that has been dropped, you can\u2019t\u2026 In the past when carrying the enemy flag, I\u2019ve killed the opposing team flag carrier, returned the flag and went on to cap. That is no longer possible.\u201d There was no mention of a change like that in the latest March 3 patch notes, but that hasn\u2019t stopped more people from coming across the strange bug. \u201cYes thank you for this,\u201d user \u2018JuggxFinesse\u2019 said in response to the clip. \u201cIt\u2019s been happening a lot lately to me too. Definitely a bug.\u201d CTF is a hectic mode where teamfights devolve into mad scrambles for the flag. A lot of the time, the difference between capping a flag and watching an opponent make their escape with your flag can happen in a matter seconds. If the bug keeps popping up then it could be something Infinity Ward moves quick on to keep it from affecting more Modern Warfare players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern Warfare players want a fix to frustrating Capture the Flag issue B2k6 YouTubeModern Warfare players are encountering a strange glitch that\u2019s preventing them from returning dropped flags in CTF when they\u2019re holding the objective.
