Online Mission Types

As you cycle through Game Lobbies on the BRIEFING screen,
each game's mission type appears to the right of the Game Name under
GAME DETAILS to help you decide which game to join.

Breach: 

SEALs attempt to break through barriers and destroy key targets in a

terrorist stronghold. Terrorists use their fortifications to prevent the SEAL incursion.

Demolition: 

Find the bomb and blow up the opposition headquarters. Get hold of the bomb and become the hunted as enemy 

troops try to kill you and your team before their HQ is destroyed. Lose the bomb and you're now on defense. Plant the bomb in the 
enemy base and prevent it from being defused by the enemy until it blows up.

Suppression: 

This is a pure fight to the death between SEALs and terrorists with a five minute time limit. The winner has the 

most men left standing. Suppression maps can be set to respawn and players will instantly come back to life after being killed to 
rejoin the fight.

Escort: 

Key personnel need to be moved to a secure location. SEALs win by getting at least two VIPs to the extraction point or 

killing all terrorists. Terrorists win by eliminating all VIPs or all SEALs.
