How to capture a sector in Battlefield 2042

If you want to win you’ll have to dig in.

Conquest mode is all about sectors – specifically how much of it you can hold on any given map. The more your team holds the stronger it gets...and the weaker your enemy becomes. But how do you actually capture a map sector in this mode?

Start by understanding that each territory on a map contains one or more flags, and those flags must be claimed and defended. Manage to do that on all the flags in a given territory and you’ve captured that sector. The more sectors you can tally up (or take away from the enemy) the closer you are to victory. Maintain a grip on the majority of sectors and you’ll steadily drain your enemies of reinforcements. When they reach zero you’ve won!
