Occupy

"Take and control a single Capture Zone that changes location during the match."
— In-game Description

Occupy is an Arena game mode featured in XDefiant. Occupy is one of the five game modes released at launch, and is featured in Ranked.

Overview

Occupy features a moving control point contested by two teams. After 45 seconds, the point will move to randomized area of the map, registering the old point as defunct. 10 seconds prior to the new point being active, it will appear on the map. The points will cycle through this random assortment for the whole match. The first team to reach 250 points, or the most points after 10 minutes, wins. If a team is holding capture point, the time limit will stop counting. If the point is contested or unclaimed, the time limit will tick down.

Capturing the point occurs when a player is present on it and remains on it, earning points for their team. An enemy player can stall the point gain rate by walking on the point. The amount of players on the capture point does not increase the score given per point giving tick. A neutral point will not generate any points. The capture point will rotate through pre-determined locations on the map, before returning to the start of the rotation in the middle of the map.

In Ranked, the points will rotate entirely randomly for the whole match, as opposed to the cycled random of the vanilla mode.
