Control Game Mode Explained In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Control is a 6v6 game mode that tasks two teams with either capturing or defending two points on the map. Both teams are given a total of 30 lives, meaning when these lives run out, that team is no longer able to respawn. While both teams can simply win by eliminating the other team, the two capture zones are the main objective for both of them. Defenders must hold on to both zones until the timer runs out. Each round starts with 1 minute and 30 seconds on the clock, with the clock being paused when an Attacker is standing in an objective. Teams will swap sides after each round.
Attacking teams will need to try and capture both of these points, with each of these zones’ having their capture progress divided into thirds. If the attacking team is able to reach one of these thresholds, the segment that has been captured will remain captured permanently for the rest of the round. When the Attackers take one zone, an extra 1 minute will be put on the clock. If the Attackers take both points, they will win the round. The first team to win 3 rounds will win the game.
