If the flags don't flow, it'd diminish the little medieval immersion the game has. (But then, Siege Flags don't flow)
And yes, Vibe got a point, unless a player has mastered manual blocking in first person mode, the flags might just block the important 3rd person view.
But take heart, battalion commands still give you a flag attach-on on your back
