HQ - are they chosen in order?

Is there an order to where the HQ locations come up in a round, or is it random? I've seen some people leave a captured HQ and camp somewhere else that became the next HQ location. Was that just luck or can you know where the next one will be?

The more you play it the more you have a general idea of where its going next. There is no particular order, but if you break down the maps into 3 areas then you know its probably going to one of the next two after that one. For instance, on District it seems that 90% of the time it starts at B or C (Domination flag points for general naming). If it starts at C then you can leave and go to B or A. If it goes to B then you can say there probably a 90% chance of it going to A for the 3rd one and vice versa. This is why noone could beat us on HQ because we always had people waiting in the next HQ.

Yeah that only pick up games I've had where we totally owned the other teams was when at least two people were doing that. Seems like grabbing that HQ for the quick points wins out over trying to hold it down for two minutes.
