What happened to Capture the Flag?

[Mr_Wormwood]

According to an IW rep's FAQ on CoD4 over at Xbox.com, this game was slated to have traditional CTP but in the end, it did not.
Anybody know why they chose (unwisely imo) to leave it out? Anybody know if they intend to add it via downloadable content in the future?

I love the game but CTF was one of the best gametypes in CoD4 and is sorely missed by many in CoD4.

Here is my soruce for the above info...

How many multiplayer gametypes are there, and are the same ones from Call of Duty 2 there?
We're not announcing all the gametypes just yet, but we have brought back all the gametypes from Call of Duty 2 as well as introduced several new ones. The currently confirmed gametypes include:

Free-for-All (deathmatch)
Team Deathmatch
Capture the Flag
Search and Destroy
Headquarters
Sabatoge

Oldschool (no details available)
Domination (no details available)

Capture the flag as a gametype is registered in the game, so it may well still arrive from IW. If not, Tally is currently working on his own version of it, so yes, there will be a CTF gametype in the near future.

CTF is in every game, they just wanted to be a little different and had domination instead of ctf

Plus if you think about it with players dieing so quickly, all you need is a well placed assault rifles and the game could go on ridiculously for hours
