A '''takeover''', or simply '''take''', is a game element in ''Turf'' that has been in the game since the first stages of development. A takeover can be seen as a change of ownership of a [[zone]] which yields the new owner of the zone [[points]]. A takeover can be performed by one or more players.

Several [[bonus]]es are directly or indirectly connected to takeovers in ''Turf''.

An '''assist''', or '''assisted takeover''' is a type of takeover that occurs when several players are present in a zone during a takeover. An assist applies to all players in the zone except for the player who performs the takeover (completing the takeover time first). An assist yields the [[takeover points]] of the zone but does not yield the [[points per hour]] associated with the zone. An assist does not give the assisting player ownership of the zone, but counts as a [[unique]] takeover if applicable and counts when striving for certain [[medal]]s.

'''Revisit''' is a type of takeover that takes place when a player performs a takeover of a zone which was previously owned by the same player. A revisit differs from a takeover in the sense that it only yields half the amount of [[takeover points]] associated with the zone. A revisit is limited to once at least every 23 hours, and is always followed by a [[block time]] of five minutes.
 
 
 
== Takeover notification ==
 
When a player performs a takeover, assist or revisit, a notification is displayed with basic information of the zone that has been taken, such as: Name, [[takeover points]], [[points per hour]], current owner (or assisting player) of the zone and the previous owner.

A player who has performed a takeover.

A takeover, is a form of take and a game element in Turf that has been in the game since the first stages of development. A takeover can be seen as a change of ownership of a zone which yields the new owner of the zone points. A takeover can be performed by only one player per take of a zone, regardless of whether more players are present or not. If several players are present during a takeover, all players but the player who fills their takeover time first, perform an assist, or assisted take. A key characteristic of a takeover that differs from the other types of takes, is that the zone turns green for the player who did the takeover.

Points[edit]

Zone takeovers give the largest amount of points per take of all the zone takeovers, taking into account the time aspect that block time entails. The minimum number of points that a zone takeover can give is the whole take points for the zone plus points per hour for the entire block time and takeover time for the player who takes over the zone afterwards. This means that zone takeovers that give at least a little more points than assists per take, regardless of the circumstances.
