Here is a quick overview of the Domination game type:
Description
Control of the field of battle is the ultimate goal of a large fighting force, and Domination missions are won by mastering the battlefield.
256 players fight to secure & hold 8 targets, with each target contributing to the main mission objective. With each secure & hold target held by the attacking faction, the mission goal moves faster toward completion...but the defending faction can frustrate the invaders by seizing and holding those targets and bleeding the enemy dry.
Objectives
Domination is a secure-and-hold game style
There are 2 primary secure and hold objectives (Vent Stations and Pump Stations) per zone; 8 total
Each Primary objective controlled by the attacking team "bleeds" the defender scorebar and contributes to the destruction of the refining facility
To reach the primary Vent Stations and Pump Stations, attackers must first overload the refinery system by seizing the zone's Burnoff Towers and Cooling Towers
When both Burnoff Towers in a zone are under attacker control at the same time, they are destroyed and Cooling Towers are unlocked after a short delay
Once both Cooling Towers in a zone are under attacker control at the same time, they are destroyed and the final objectives are enabled after a short delay
Attacker victory is achieved by controlling Vent Stations and Pump Stations, which bleeds the defenders scorebar. If the defenders scorebar reaches 0 before time expires, the attacking team wins. If time expires and the defenders scorebar still has points, the defenders win
