Trivia[]
- There are no zombie character appears in this mode, except the bosses.
- There are health, stamina and skill slots available for zombie bosses. For Goliath, only health slot is available.
- The player plays the bosses in third person view. This is also the second mode in Counter-Strike Online that allows the player to play in third-person view after Beast.
- Fallen Titans cannot use their 'Howling' skill for game balance and to avoid possible bugs.
- There are some differences of the XT-300 in this mode:
- No missile launchers on its shoulders, the left hand is equipped with a triple-barreled rocket launcher instead of gatling gun.
- It cannot use flamethrowers.
- There is a unique crosshair for it. The blue one on the left is for grenade launcher storage (auto-refill when empty) and red one on the right is for minigun's heat (avoid overheat). This kind of crosshair might be inspired of the one in Half-Life 2.
- Even though the player is using the XT-300, the hurt sound still uses the human ones.
- In this mode, Angra appears as a summon only. It can be summoned using Dione's fourth ability that will be accessible after evolution. It will soar throughout the sky and cross the whole map in a line while using the poison breath attack.
- New sound and model files have been implemented for the bosses.
- On the top of the control box, player can see the word "MQ9 Reaper UAV". "UAV" refers to "Unmanned Aerial Vehicle" - a kind of aircraft without human pilots aboard. While "MQ9" is the name of the UAV which is used, refers to "General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper".
- The Bots' name are taken from Elite Bots. They also run faster than players.
