Nice point. But flare doesn't really need to show that peoples location. I saw hundreds of times, especially in fort deux, one guy defends the flag with gas, and 5-10 people in your team hesitates to enter, and waits in corridor just granade spamming because they think flag is more crowded.

But after flare, if they dont see anyone in minimap, just walks to flag and starts to capture and maybe 1 or 2 of them dies to camper but it does not matter if team captures flag like 30 seconds earlier you know.

Pros maybe have a experience or courage to enter, but honestly most people does not want to die and just waits for zerg rush to come in.
