### THE GAME LOOP CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING STEPS:

1. Game mode selection so you can choose between Competitive and Casual modes.
2. Select one of the four roles and search for a match
3. Select a character from those available for your chosen role in the lobby when your match is found.
4. Choose one of the weapons available to your character before the start of the match.
5. Complete the goals of the game mode (e.g., capture a point on the map or destroy an object defended by the enemy team).
6. The attacking and defending teams will switch sides in competitive games after the match.
7. Based on the results, the player wins (meets the goal of the game mode) or loses (fails to meet the goals of the game mode).
8. Receive a reward (experience, rank, etc.)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.farcana.com/farcana-wiki-2.0/game/gameplay/game-loop.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
