Ticket count?

Lo All

Do any of you guys know how the Ticket countdown actually works?
Like if a team holds half the flags - the opposing teams tickets don't count
down -

I remember in BF42 on a map like Stalingrad if you owned just 2 of the flags
the opposing team lost a ticket per second.
In BF2 it takes for ever - its like the tickets only drop when you make a
kill.

Anyone know a link or resource that can shed some light on the games ticket
physics?

Thanks guys

It depends on the map, some require all the control points to be held,
some just a majority. From memory, it is explained in the small print
in the map details.

Everytime a map is loaded, the game shows text that states the rules of the
map (i.e., who has to hold how many flags to force the tickets to count
down). Just like BF42 does.
