* OvershadowedByControversy: Today, ''Firefall'' is primarily remembered for its TroubledProduction, as detailed [[https://www.techinasia.com/firefall-mark-kern-sacked-the9-story here]], including lead Mark Kern's alleged MeanBoss behavior, such as firing employees he personally dislike, and spending millions on a custom tour bus that was never finished.



** Possible one to ''VideoGame/StarCraft'', "Firecat" sounds a lot like "Firebat". More believable when you consider that Red5 previously comprised many former members of BlizzardEntertainment.

Not YMMV.


* HellIsThatNoise: The Chosen have a weird VoiceOfTheLegion, and their voices don't decrease in volume with distance. Therefore, as soon as you hear ''"The dawn of the Chosen is near..."'' you get the hell out of wherever you are.

** Chosen Annihilators in 1.6 are every Bastion's bane, tossing out extremely high damage explosive bombs that have a delay before exploding. Unfortunately, turrets can't dodges, and the bombs shred any position a Bastion tries to fortify in short order.

Added DiffLines:

** The Chosen, full stop. Their Assaults are nasty as it is, but Chosen Juggernauts running around with the same Plasma Cannon the player gets in their own Assault kit are even more of a hassle due to being a beefy enemy with a gun that can paste you in two good hits.

Moved YMMV tropes from mainpage to here.

Added DiffLines:

* DemonicSpiders: Chosen Assaults. They're not only extremely tough, but their assault rifles have 100% accuracy and fire in three-shot bursts every two or three seconds. The only way to actually deal with them without losing half your health is to ''very, very carefully'' pick at them from long-distance, or make sure they're distracted by the local fauna before opening fire.
