Flag can get thrown out of bounds?

Hey, was in a game about five minutes ago, chattyloid had the flag but got sniped and the flag went through the OOB barrier on Frostbyte.

I was there, I dunno why it happened but falgs can get thrown out of bounds at times, I tried.

How odd! I loved throwing the flag outta bounds to buy the team more time once, but that died with a game of a newbie throwing the flag out of bounds at every opportunity

So far, I've been unable to reproduce this. Might have just been a freak thing, slipped it through a pixel gap in the map or something

I've also heard of this happening occasionally. I don't actually have any evidence, and I'm just going by secondhand word of mouth, but I have heard of it happening.

I was fooling around last night in an empty server, ended up getting the flag out of bounds, but the only way i could do it was to go 200+ off a hill and toss it over the top, which is nearly impossible.

I've seen it happen before. Capper took mah falg, I followed them, and then they threw it out of bounds. This was behind the Alpha Base on Zenith.

It has nothing to do with height.

 

[Siantlark]

Then how does it happen exactly?

 

[Freeman]

If we tell you, there will be people trying to replicate it.
As far as I know, it can happen on any map.

And it Happens
