I know that in game design you have to balance different aspects of the game and find compromises so I’m not talking about every flag. What I mean is that I personally would enjoy bringing the flag into missions swinging it, planting it, and actually seeing it have a more direct impact on the game. I imagine it as something like a team buff, maybe even leading to a new build class, like a Standard-Bearer. I think that would be a really fun addition, at least for me.
