* Usually, the map in RST where Hornets spawn out of pits in the ground is neutral, maybe a little frustrating because you can't block the spawn points...except that sometimes a ground Vek such as a Firefly will prepare an attack, and a Hornet will emerge right in front of it, which both wastes the shot and gives you some free damage on the Hornet (possibly even killing it, if you're playing the Steel Judoka or otherwise have access to Vek Hormones).

* Secret Squad mechs lack traditional pilots, which can lead to some weirdness because many narrative elements of the game haven't been designed to take that into account. For example, several of the CEO's will offer your pilots jobs when they're promoted (levelling up)...even though you don't ''have'' pilots to do those jobs. Having one Secret Squad unit in a randomised or selected squad can also cause commentary to get a bit weird; if the Secret Squad unit causes collateral damage, one of your human pilots may well end up blaming the other human pilot for it, even though they had nothing to do with it and may be on the opposite side of the map.

* Generally, making the Vek hit each other or kill themselves with their own attacks can be somewhat comical. One of the more hilarious examples is getting a (Alpha) Beetle to charge right into a water, A.C.I.D., chasm or lava tile.

Many of the pilots' quotes can be quite amusing:

-->'''Generic RST Pilot:''' Why are we losing to these things again?
-->'''Archimedes:''' Good to see the Vek are making themselves useful.
