All Networks What about introduce arrow generators to CTF

[SilicoFlare]

So I play CTF a lot, and I keep sniping enemies to their deaths. But the thing is, since I have just 32 arrows, once they are over, I feel like I lost a hand. Can you please introduce something like an arrow generator, a block which drops 1-3 arrows on being mined? Coz the only way to get a refill is to die, which no one would want to do after getting a full set of iron or diamond Armor...

Edit: after many valid reasons given, I am changing my proposal: gain arrows by sniping someone to death.

I disagree because in my opinion there are enough arrows and the meaning of the game is to capturing the flags

Yeah I know that the game is to capture, but that doesn't mean you lay out a red carpet (terracota) and welcome your enemy to capture your flag. You need to snipe them out, and yeah, they aren't enough. Not everyone knows projectile motion by heart to hit them bull's eye, and I have seen the opponent build cells at the top of pillars and rain arrows at us, and SHOULD be knocked down.

In short, I disagree with your disagreement.

Nope they are not. 32 arrows isn't enough. When you have infinite iron, diamond and building blocks, why not make the last remaining thing, arrows, infinite??

No. In bridges we have 5 arrows but they regen upon kill but 32 arrows is too much of anything. It means that stationary sniping isn’t encouraged which is a good thing, adding more will just make more snipers and less attacking play styles.

Mmm that's true though.. but I am restricted to sniping on Android, coz I always tend to lose hand to hand combat because of restricted control over movement and attack, so I resort to sniping...

That’s fair, mobile can struggle but I’d advise you to practice PvP instead. Sniping can only take you so far, it is a good strategy but it’s better to use both seamlessly. Maybe snipe people then swoop in for the kill or act as a mobile (mobile) attacker to pick off injured opponents? Or go for easy void kills? That way pvp doesn’t need to be as good.

Yeah I'll try to do that. Thanks a lot for your advice!!

Perhaps a potentially better thing would be if all players started on 16:8 arrows and gained 3/5 upon a ranged kill? That way it wouldn’t encourage sniping much but it would give infinite arrows in case you wanted it?

Yeah this is a good idea. You get arrows upon snipes

If you prefer that version maybe edit the first post? I think people will prefer the arrow on kill, especially bridges players!
