How to Play Invasion

Invasion Overview

Invasion is a massive, 40-man deathmatch that pits 2 teams of 20 against one another. However, unlike Ground War, this game mode mixes Players & AI in the same teams, allowing for fast-paced combat and easier queue times despite the size of the lobby. Race the enemy team to 1000 Points in order to win the match.

Tips and Strategies for Invasion

Hold the Line

Due to the magnitude of the maps in Invasion, there will be a vast open area allows players to attack from various ways. Stay together and hold the line with your teammates for a better chance at racking kills and subsequently take control of the match. Make sure to stay within the playing area as staying out of bounds for too long can result in instant death.

Avoid Going Solo

Whether it be fighting a group of enemies or driving an APC into the battlefield, it is always better to do it with your teammates. Getting solo kills is certainly easier but having the numbers helps tremendously when taking control of an area on the map.
