I was thinking about having a small tweak for the Phantom Zone flag. When you see the player name
Bambino/PH
Why not add a /zoned to the end of it when the player is zoned, that way, you don't have to look at the tank to tell if it's zoned.
Bambino/PH/zoned
Thoughts?

Well not being sure wether the other one is able to shoot you right now or not, is part of the flag, right?

Re: Phantom Zone tweak
Personally, I dont understand the Real meaning of PZ. I agree with Bam, good idea.
The question is How many maps use the PZ flag?

Re: Phantom Zone tweak
I actually think this would detract from the flag. It's pretty limited now and generally a throw-away flag - but sometimes you can get a good kill with it. I like to get zoned and shoot at regular tanks for a couple minutes like a fool - then quietly as I can get unzoned, but don't drop the flag - so the target is a bit off guard. So much fun!

Re: Phantom Zone tweak
As temp described, players have their strategies for PZ drawn out. But as we both stated, it isnt really seen anymore. Heres my question: "Is it worth tweaking a flag that isnt abundantly used?"
the only map I know that still holds this flag is the Planet Mofo map, which maybe this could come in handy. It depends on the player and situation.

Re: Phantom Zone tweak
Ok Bam you answered that question, therefore you have a good point. But what percentage of players do you think holds onto this flag? My estimate would be less than 30% hold and use this flag.

It's part of the charm/use/sneak of it, that you don't know without seeing them.
Re: Phantom Zone tweak
The PZ flag can also be used in capture the flag servers, where you get your self zoned and peacefull waltz a cross the battle field of chaos and then become unzoned near the enemy's flag.
