How to unlock the Control Freak achievement

    Lets start off with some clarification. "Total Control" is the name of the game type which can only be played in Big Team Battle in which 3 areas/zones labeled A, B, and C spawns somewhere on the map and your team has to control all 3 zones to gain 1 point (for a total of 3 to win) and then they spawn again somewhere else. The "Total Control" game mode can be confused for "Strongholds" (Arena 4v4 game type) which your team has to control 2 of the 3 zones to start accumulating points for a total of 200 to win.

    Zones A, B, and C start off neutral and your team has to capture all 3 areas to gain a point, and you must assist in capturing all 3 zones to gain this achievement. In by assisting you must be inside the zone and help capture and it does not matter how long or if you were inside when your team got the zone as long as you helped. If the enemy team takes back a point you may have to help take it back so it counts again. You don't need to do this in one life as when I was helping capture the last zone I died but my team got the capture and the score and I got the achievement afterward.

    A tip I can give is to stick close to your team when they start pushing for the objectives so you can be there to assist in the capture of the point. You don’t want your team getting the zone when you didn’t help capture because remember you need to assist in capturing A, B, and C. It’s most likely that it will happen, but again it’s gonna be a back-and-forth game most of the time. The zones that you didn’t help get but the enemy got you can help get it back so you get the assist for that zone.

    If you're lucky and have a good team you may be able to snowball the objectives via getting zones A to B to C or vice versa, and it will definitely help if some people stay and defend (not you though) the already captured zones just in case.

    So apparently the achievement might be a bit buggy. You may be able to get it if you helped assist all zones at some point but it did not lead to a total control for the score.

    Correct me if I got some things wrong, hope this helped or clarified things for you guys!

    trevzuk0As the achievement description mentions, you only need to ASSIST in capturing all 3 zones when your team scores. I thought that I needed to get the notification (zone captured text) to get it to count, but I died while capturing the final zone. I still got the achievement, having fully captured the first 2 zones.

    Spicy Eggroll1@trevzuk0 - Don't know if you missed it, but that's what I've stated in the solution. Also, that's the exact example I used to confirm that you didn't need to actually capture all the zones yourself nor have to do it in one life to get the achievement.

    Yoshi FailSo if I assist in two of the zones, then we lose one, do I need to go back and touch that one again? How long do I need to be in the zone?

    To get this Achievement you must help capture all the zones on the map to score in a Matchmade Total Control game.

    This game mode is only available in Big Team Battle “BTB” & has similar rules to the Strongholds game mode.

    To score you must help capture all zones on the map & once all are owned a score will be earned.
