* * ThatOneLevel: ''Attempted Arrest'' in Team Sabre, simply put, the mission is a buggy mess, with the time limit to rescue the pilot never being the same length twice, sometimes you'll get more than enough time, othertimes you can barely leave the village before he's killed, the recommended strategy is to exploit a section in the mission where most of the "you have left the mission zone" scripting is turned off (Just before picking up the documents to trigger the helicopter.) and run ahead to kill most of the enemies so you can just run through that section with the knife out to run faster and save time. (You can even have the mission fail to spawn the helicopter in the first place, softlocking you after picking up the documents.)

* DifficultySpike:
** The endgame missions comprising the Battle of Mogadishu are a significant step up in difficulty compared to the early-to-midgame missions. Mogadishu Mile, the final normal mission, is particularly tough with no health or ammo refills until the very end, a long gauntlet of snipers and [=RPG=] militia (who are much more accurate than they were in the rest of the game), with an EscortMission at the beginning and end.
** The expansion is known for this as all of its missions last from 15 to 30 minutes, the enemy placement is less forgiving and you're never allowed more than five saves.



* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: Before and after its release, many reviewers and players agreed that the game was going to be and turned ''BETTER'' than the last two games ''Land Warrior'' and ''Task Force Dagger''.
