Online game modes

  • Raid: It's time for the criminals to pay. Law enforcement attempts to raid a criminal's hangout where they're protecting their stash. The criminals just defend their turf and prevent the law enforcement team from making a bust. The law enforcement team's goal is to infiltrate, grab the stash, and return it to the SWAT van (or another location) at the start point.
  • Robbery: Criminals go from their spawn point to a target location and pick up the loot object. Criminals carrying loot run more slowly, requiring team assistance. Criminals must take the loot to available drop-off points. Cops spawn on the opposite side of the map and attempt to prevent successful theft of loot.
  • Tag: Represent your set! Two rival gangs of criminals clash to claim their turf. Each team "owns" turf by controlling tag locations across the level. Spray your tag over empty and rival team's tags. Doing so will give your team control of that section of turf. A team wins a round if they control the most tag locations for the longest time or if they control all of the tag locations on the level at one time.
  • War: This mode is an all-out, team-based deathmatch. The round ends when the team limit or score is reached, or when one team is completely eliminated. Be sure to check out the different options that you can configure for this mode (such as friendly fire on, etc.) when hosting this type of game.
