Ground War - Tips To Win
Push To Hold 3 Objectives At A Time
It's ideal to control 3 objectives at a time to get a lot of points while also not spreading your team too thin. Get the ones nearest to your spawn as soon as you can before aiming for the one in the middle of the map.
When Spawning, Choosing A Teammate Can Be Detrimental
Since you can choose where you spawn, do take note that spawning near teammates can be detrimental to you. It's entirely possible to spawn in bad locations, in a middle of a fight, or even as a vehicle shoots at you.
Defend Points For As Long As You Can
When teams try to take objectives controlled by your team, try to hold it for as along as you can or disrupt them from taking it. It can be a losing battle, but holding out even for just a bit will allow your team to get in a few more points.
Do Not Engage In Vehicle Battles Unless You Are Also In A Vehicle
Generally, it's best to not join vehicle battles unless you're in a vehicle yourself. Your character can easily die from a direct hit or from being run over so it's not ideal.
Flank Enemies Holding Objectives
Objectives often have multiple points of entry. Do not funnel yourself into a single one. Try to flank and get behind enemies as another teammates charge upfront.
Do Not Focus Too Much On A Single Point
It's also not great to put all of your team's focus on a single point. If enemies are too busy capturing your objectives, you can leave the battle to your teammates and aim to get enemy objectives that have been left behind.
