** Unlike in the main game, in addition to Flyers and Icari, it's possible to find weapon guards, Enforcers and even a pair of Tanks in "Comm Satellite". The latter replace the [[MidBoss Hornet]] in said area. There's also a forcefield in the satellite dish area that prevents players feom being killed by being thrown to space.

** The Black Hole is missing in "Launch Command". There's also no EasyLevelTrick, as the window that exposes the computers to.the outdoors is sealed. Lastly, both levels of the central area are connected between each other; as a result the coolant pool lacks the coolant.
** "Processing Plant" has you take the reverse path, starting from where the end is in the main game, and go all the way back.

** There's no [[MidBoss Super Tank]] in the beginning of "Power Plant", but rather a huge water pool. The lack of a Red Key also means you can travel through the whole level freely.
* TeleportingKeycardSquad: Destroying the Gladiator in the Red Key area of "Detention Center" still spawns three Flyers.
* TheUnfought: Due to a lack of triggers, two Medics at the end of "Detention Center" remain trapped, requiring the use of [[ClassicCheatCode noclip]] in order to kill them.
