Direct starting answer

Understand the zone before spending your cash.

Three teams compete around a changing Control Zone. The team with the most players inside gains points; the first to 100 wins. Start with the $10,000 available to each new player, choose one affordable role, and earn through transport, revives or objective play before investing in a costly vehicle.

Release mechanics, not an invented meta.
