Obliteration | Game modes Battlefield 4 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Obliteration is a mode that is new to Battlefield. The team's main aim is to destroy a predefined number of targets, using a bomb. One bomb is assigned to destroying one target, and it appear several seconds after the match begins, and several seconds after a target is destroyed. The targets appear in randomly selected places which cannot be predicted.
Both of the team have three targets to destroy. The end of match ensues after all three targets of one of the teams are destroyed. Still, it is advised against focusing on destroying targets of the enemy team only. It is just as important to protect one's own targets. This is where Engineers and Scouts prove their worth, due to their gadgets (mines, C4 explosives). It is a good idea to deploy some of these around your targets, and especially on the roads that lead up to these targets, so that they stop the enemy vehicles.
After you have destroyed one of the targets, there will appear another bomb in 30 seconds, in a random location. A good solution is to split the team into several smaller groups and keep in mind that the location that the bomb appears in is always random. Still, it is worth knowing that, as the bomb carrier, you will be visible for both your team and the enemy's team.
Useful classes: Engineer and Scout - due to their gadgets. Claymores, AT mines may prove very useful and C4 explosives may prove very useful.
