Just thinking of cod, i think it would be good. (If your answers gunna be no care to explain)

It might work in DM or Arena gametypes, but I'd be hesitant (though not utterly opposed) to introducing it in CTF. First Blood rewards killing your opponent; the objective in CTF isn't to kill your enemies, but to work together as a team to capture the flag (though killing is, of course, a tool used to accomplish this objective). Introducing First Blood in a gametype that isn't specifically about killing the enemy team rewards the lone ranger on said team.
At the same time, I can't see much wrong with having it in DM, and having it in one place without the other would be curious.

This isn't CoD we can't just steal ideas from other games.

We can. Nothing is stopping us. I'd even encourage doing so if it makes Legions a better game.

Pruned all the douchiness from this thread. Let's try to be genial in our interactions with each-other, folks.

Go ahead and make it again if you feel it's worthwhile, bud; let's just try not to torch each-others' eyebrows with the flaming.

Thats pretty much the only reason there that prevents the suggestion, especially in CTF. I don't mind seeing it in DM though.

So the point that was vaguely suggested in my apparently flaming post was:
Let's not waste devs time. I wouldn't mind seeing Outriders do backflips after they grab the flag, but just like first blood it wouldn't contribute to the 'thing' that should be mostly developed in L:O and that the devs should be and are concerned about: gameplay.

I would like to see something like this for CTF (the first flag grab and cap). If the first flag grab also yeilded the first cap without the said cappers flag being taken first, the said team would earn a bonus point.

Change thread title to "First cap", like sky said, and you would have my full support. But not a bonus flag cap point, but some personal points for the capper.
Then put it in DM (when DM is implemented, that is) and confuse new players.

Rewarding kills in a CTF game makes no sense. You might as well reward "first body block," at least that actually pertains to Legions.

Would like to see this stuff in Arena and TDM as stated above. Maybe we could use an announcer for all gametypes. Someone who says "Beta scored a point!" in CTF and stuff like that.

Voiced by Seymour, of course.

As long as it doesn't turn into a really annoying medieval announcer that cheers for everything you do.
"YAY! YOU HAVE NOW ACTIVATED YOUR JETS!"
"YAY! YOU HAVE NOW SHOT SOMEONE!"
Although the Seymour voice would definitely be cool

Maybe in a dm or tdm, but it's useless in a ctf...

Funny how it seems like you are saying this was originally in CoD?
