XDefiant:Zone Control
Overview
Zone Control is a Linear map-type game mode in XDefiant. This is one of the five game modes introduced at the game’s launch.
The winning condition in Zone Control is straightforward: the offensive team has 10 minutes to score five control points, and the defender team has the task of stopping them from making this goal.
To capture a point, the offensive team needs to stand in the zone for 30 seconds. The more teammates inside the capture zone, the faster the rate of taking it. Each point goes by its name in alphabetical order, A, B, C, D, and E.
The capture process happens in four-part checkpoints, with each checkpoint preventing defenders from recapturing past that point. If the defending team kills all attackers who were claiming the zone, the progress will stop.
If defenders lose a zone after attackers have captured it, the zone can not be recaptured. If a defender steps into the capture zone while the attackers are claiming it, the process will be stalled.
Within 10 minutes, attackers are required to capture each sector. Capturing each sector gives them bonus time.
More sectors are opened up on the map as the attackers start claiming one zone after another. Capturing all points inside a sector shifts the spawn points: the attackers get shifted forward while defenders backward relative to that sector. The next sector only unlocks when you claim all zones inside that sector.
At the end of the round, the roles between attackers and defenders are flipped. The new attacking team must capture the points the previous attackers ended up in less time than the first attackers.
