aside from the aforementioned akimbo placement issues, I'd have no issue with it providing it was something reasonable. I have no idea about ql ctf (don't play it), but in tdm quad + BS spawn every 2 minutes. I don't think quad + BS would be good ideas for AC (maybe BS could work on some maps), but if the akimbo's damage is buffed I'd like to see a longer respawn time.
I'd like to see a new meta introduced into ctf that actually involves controlling pickups properly, even if it's in some kind of primitive form like this. I'd never go out of my way to take an akimbo atm unless I'm trying to deny it from an enemy who's sniping or something.
