Bugs
There is a bug in this level, when you almost reach to elevator that go to the top. Heading to the third section of the laser. Where the gunner has blocked it. At that part, the Berserker sometimes may not spawn and if it happened, will spawn two or even three times to engaging on you. It is considering to be one of the most annoying part. Where the enemies can easily killed your teammate and ending up with a mission failure, especially other enemies nearby that are distracting you or playing on harder difficulties.
