Chapter 3 - Tour of Duty

This section provides a complete overview of Condition Zero’s Tour of Duty challenge mode. Note that some maps and tours increase the number of enemies you’ll face after securing the area. The overviews in this section reveal the enemies in the map’s initial state.

Tour of Duty 1 - Dust

Look for terrorists to enter from under this overpass if they aren’t moving through the tunnel.

Bomb Defuse Scenario: Your team must prevent the Terrorists from detonating their bomb at one of the bomb sites. To win, defuse the bomb or eliminate all of the Terrorists.

Opponents

EASY: You will face 3 enemies in this match: Weasel, Lunatic, Crackpot.
NORMAL: You will face 3 enemies in this match: Madman, Rat, Screech.
HARD: You will face 5 enemies in this match: Freak, Maniac, Psycho, Rebel, Fiend.
EXPERT: You will face 5 enemies in this match: Rebel, Fiend, Vandal, Razor, Bandit.

Challenges

EASY: You must kill an enemy.
NORMAL: You must kill 5 enemies. You must kill an enemy and survive the round. You must win a round in less than 75 seconds.

EXPERT: You must kill 10 enemies. You must kill 2 enemies and survive the round. You must win a round in less than 45 seconds. Be careful! Your weapons can hurt friends during this match.

Tips

• Know the location of the two bomb sites. Bomb site A is found on the right side of the map (from the counter-terrorist start position) and bomb site B is located at the counter-terrorist start position.
• Crates, barrels, and other barriers crowd the bomb sites. Your goal should be preventing the terrorist bots from reaching the bomb site completely. If not, you will face a tough time penetrating terrorist defenses. On the flip side, though, mount your own defense of a bomb site by using the available cover.
• The terrorists push toward the bomb sites either through the overpass route on the left side of the map or the primary tunnel straight ahead.
• Defend the overpass by hiding behind the crates below the bridge, by standing on the railing overlooking the ground below, or by using the sniping position at the end of the path.
• Defend the tunnel with grenades (powerful in close quarters) and by splitting away from your CT comrades. If some go through the middle or right side of the tunnel, take the left route near the overpass and vice versa.

Tour of Duty 1 - Office

Terrorists have separated the hostages into two pairs. Each pair can be found in the rear of an office.

Hostage Rescue Scenario: The Terrorists have taken several hostages. You must rescue them by leading them to a Hostage Rescue Point. To win, rescue all of the Hostages or eliminate all of the Terrorists.

Opponents

EASY: You will face 3 enemies in this match: Weasel, Lunatic, Crackpot.
NORMAL: You will face 3 enemies in this match: Madman, Rat, Screech.
HARD: You will face 5 enemies in this match: Freak, Maniac, Psycho, Rebel, Fiend.
EXPERT: You will face 5 enemies in this match: Rebel, Fiend, Vandal, Razor, Bandit.

Challenges

EASY: You must kill an enemy with a sub-machine gun. You must rescue a hostage.
NORMAL: You must kill 5 enemies. You must kill an enemy with a sub-machine gun. You must rescue 4 hostages.
HARD: You must kill 7 enemies. You must kill 2 enemies with a K&M sub-machine gun and survive the round. You must rescue all of the hostages. Be careful! Your weapons can hurt friends during this match.
EXPERT: You must kill 10 enemies. You must kill 2 enemies with a K&M sub-machine gun and survive the round. You must rescue all of the hostages. Be careful! Your weapons can hurt friends during this match.

Tips

• The counter-terrorists begin a long tunnel containing the hostage rescue zone. The hostages are found deep in the complex; they’ve been split into pairs and shuffled to the back end of a couple offices. The two offices are virtually adjacent to one another.
• The beauty of Office is the number of entrances into the structure. Search both ends of the starting tunnel to find several entrances into the structure. You can jump on top of crates and break windows to jump into the building. You can enter through stairwells and even climb ladders to reach the ledge outside of the large windows.
• There’s a passage connecting to the hostage rescue zone that leads to a large room where you can provide sniper support for your fellow CTs.
• Challenges include scoring a number of kills with a sub-machine gun (K&M specifically for the higher difficulty levels). The sub-machine gun is a good weapon in the tight halls of the Office: combine the narrow space with the sub-machine gun’s high rate of fire.
• Plenty of corners, crates, and desks to hide behind in the Office building. Beware of terrorists using the same tactic! Approach each corner carefully.

Tour of Duty 1 - Prodigy

Take cover at the back of this tunnel and wait for terrorists to appear in your sniper scope.

Bomb Defuse Scenario: Your team must prevent the Terrorists from detonating their bomb at one of the bomb sites. To win, defuse the bomb or eliminate all of the Terrorists.

Opponents

EASY: You will face 3 enemies in this match: Weasel, Lunatic, Crackpot.
NORMAL: You will face 3 enemies in this match: Madman, Rat, Screech.
HARD: You will face 5 enemies in this match: Freak, Maniac, Psycho, Rebel, Fiend.
EXPERT: You will face 5 enemies in this match: Rebel, Fiend, Vandal, Razor, Bandit.

Challenges

EASY: You must kill an enemy with a sniper rifle.
NORMAL: You must kill 5 enemies. You must kill an enemy with a sniper rifle. You must win a round in less than 75 seconds.
HARD: You must kill 7 enemies. You must kill 2 enemies with a Schmidt Scout and survive the round. You must win a round in less than 60 seconds. Be careful! Your weapons can hurt friends during this match.
EXPERT: You must kill 10 enemies. You must kill 2 enemies with a Schmidt Scout and survive the round. You must win a round in less than 45 seconds. Be careful! Your weapons can hurt friends during this match.

Tips

• Both bomb sites in Prodigy are computer rooms. Bomb site B is a small room near the counter-terrorist start position. Bomb site A is a larger computer room close to the CT start position.
• This map’s challenge requires kills with a sniper rifle (Schmidt Scout for the higher difficulty levels). An ideal position for a sniper is at the crate-filled tunnel near the CT start position that leads toward bomb site B. You can also camp on the large pipe that runs adjacent to bomb site B and snipe enemies that approach from either side.
• The "soda machines" is another area that will feature heated encounters between terrorists and counter-terrorists. Watch the crack in the wall within the garage; terrorists can flank from this position.
• A red-tinted vent shaft connects bomb sites and is a good way for a CT to monitor both positions.
