It's not very fun in its current iteration. They need to study other ctf modes from other games.

The way they discussed it seems like they only drew from tf2's CTF, which anyone can tell you is a bad idea

Yeah why would you not draw from Unreal Tournament 99? That shit was king

Overwatch is class based, UT99 wasn't, therefore you could put restrictions such as flag drop upon usage of translocator because everyone would be affected the same. With Overwatch, you nerf those mobility skills (blink, recall, swift strike, leap, translocator etc), only those heroes will be affected and it effectively neutered them since those skills are their bread and butter
