!!Tropes specific to [=SAS=] 4 here:

* OhCrap: When a [[DamageSpongeBoss savage boss]] shows up, this will most likely be your response.

* TheWoobie: Can be invoked during the [[TimedMission meltdown]] mission by allowing your character to collect three radioactive medkits.

* ArtificialStupidity: The buddy. Sure, he gives you some extra firepower, but if you die while he's still alive, [[YouAreAlreadyDead you've pretty much lost]], since he's [[WhatAnIdiot incapable of shrugging off the zombies that can swarm him]].

* EndlessGame: Apocalypse, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin obviously]]. Unintentionally subverted if you're at max rank, however as it's possible to kill every one of them should you last long enough.

* ShootTheBullet: Averted. The Zombie Mech's missiles only explode when it hits something.

* AutoRevive: You can use your revive tokens to revive yourself to full health.

** Premium weapons look gold and fancy[note]Well, at least most of them are[/note], have great perks, and allows you to augment it as much as you want. Best of all, you can reset their augments for free.

* AwesomeButImpractical: High Damage Ammo can [[ZigZaggingTrope sometimes]] be this, especially for [RED] and [BLACK] weapons, since it eventually takes a toll on your cold hard cash.

* NintendoHard: [[{{Understatement}} Nightmare]] mode. You think Adaptive is an unnecessary augment for your guns in this mode? '''Think again.'''

* [[{{ObviousBeta}}ObviousPreAlpha]]

Killing them all [[DisproportionateReward gives you a lot of loot at the end of the room]].

* AffectionateParody: The whole series is a parody of NaziZombies, but this game is the most obvious parody of it.
