* TierInducedScrappy: Shotguns. Despite requiring a substantial amount of strength to wield and being, well, SHOTGUNS, they're indisputably the worst weapons in the game, being surpassed by equivalent handguns in almost every department.

* DifficultySpike: In ''Winter Assault'' each campaign is less then half the length of the original (5 levels each in ''Winter Assault'', 11 in the original), but the later levels are equally difficult, i.e, difficulty shoots up very quickly.
** The fourth level of both ''WA'' campaigns deserves a mention, as in the Order version you are under almost constant attack by infinitely spawning enemies and in the Disorder version it's a race against time to stop ''both'' enemies completing their completely independant victory objective causing you to lose automatically.

** Most variants of Zombie Dogs other than the basic one. Take the zombie dogs mentioned below, give them ''insane'' speed and damage for the "recommended" level, plus a good amount of health, and [[LightningBruiser you've got a deadly foe on your hands]]. The Blood Dog, found as early as the green (second) zone, hits as hard as the Reaper and can kill armored characters within 2 hits, moves ''extremely quickly'', and can take more damage than the Burned Zombies. Take the Blood Dog, double its already high damage and health to make it even more painful than the Tendril, give it ''even more'' speed, and you get the nightmare that's the Flesh Hound. Worst of all, since these ''aren't'' the uncommon mutant zombies, they appear ''much'' more frequently than most of the other DemonicSpiders listed above.

* DemonicSpiders: Red Longarms in the 2D version. Going melee with them is [[WhatAnIdiot asking for it]]. In the 3D version, the Bone and the Tendril. He is fast and can take a decent part of damage (including several grenades and a few clips of assault rifle) before dying and is pretty large. She can OneHitKill a player with a low endurance ''even'' with an armor in perfect state and full health and has a decent range. They're ALWAYS escorted by a crapload of regular zombies who run at you like there's no tomorrow. And the deeper you go in the city, the more often they come to say hi...
