Conquest Mode in Battlefield 5 Battlefield 5 Guide and Tips
Last update: 10 December 2018
This short chapter is dedicated to the Conquest mode in Battlefield 5. Here, you can learn what this mode is about. The guide to Battlefield 5 will enable you to learn more about the Conquest mode.
The main goal of both factions is to control the majority of flags scattered around the entire map. Squad tickets are important - both sides start with 800 tickets each. The game ends when one of the factions runs out of their tickets (or when the time runs out - a team with more tickets wins). To reduce the number of tickets you have to capture more flags than your enemy (Ticket Bleed mechanic). Capture more flags to make your enemy lose their tickets faster. Remember that a player's death costs one ticket. You can save your team from losing a ticket by reviving a wounded player.
A captured flag serves as a spawn point which makes it even more important. A flag's status can be recognized by its color - a neutral flag has no color, a red flag is claimed by the enemy, a blue flag belongs to your faction.
You can check the objectives while the map is loading.
Your priority is to capture flags - you can do that by standing near them. Both factions receive information that someone has started capturing a flag. Recapturing flags is more difficult because you have to make it neutral first before you can get it for your side (take the enemy flag down). You can speed up this process by having more allies near that flag. Enemy players can slow this process down or even stop it - this depends on how many soldiers from both factions are near a flag (a neutral flag won't be captured if there are three players from both factions within its vicinity).
We recommend all classes to cooperate in the Conquest mode. Capturing flags alone is rather risky because enemy players can still respawn on a flag that is in the process of being captured.
All classes are useful thanks to the changes in the gameplay mechanics: a Scout can mark enemies and place mobile spawn beacons, an Assault can deal with armored vehicles and buildings, a Support can provide their allies with ammunition and can set enemies on fire by using incendiary grenades, a Medic is the best at reviving teammates and healing them (this class is a fantastic support thanks to their weapon with a scope that has small zoom).
