Intel Brief

The conclusion of the Ultimis saga. Richtofen's grand plan reaches its apex on the Moon, as the fate of the Earth — and his own soul — hang in the balance.

Setup Guide

Power

  1. Secure area 51 opening route and survive first teleporter transition.
  2. Restore power in lunar sections to enable core machines and doors.

Pack-a-Punch Location

Biodome/receiving-bay route after map power and access setup.

Accessing Pack-a-Punch

  1. Activate required systems and hold excavator control where needed.
  2. Open the lunar route segments that gate Pack-a-Punch approach.

Cryogenic Slumber Party / Big Bang Theory

CO-OP REQUIRED

Moon main quest chains QED, hacker, and objective dependencies into one of BO1's largest finales.

01
Area 51 and lunar setup

Build economy and survive first transitions, then restore lunar-side power and route control.

02
Acquire hacker and dependencies

Secure hacker usage and required equipment before attempting multi-step objective phases.

03
Manage excavator windows

Disable or route around excavator pressure while preserving oxygen-safe movement paths.

04
Execute endgame chain

Complete the final quest interactions in order once all gates are satisfied.

Field Strategies

  • Always track oxygen and suit state before committing to long routes.
  • Hacker timing is make-or-break for efficiency and objective recovery.
  • Area 51 starts can overfeed points if coordinated and not over-greedy.

Special Enemies

Cosmonaut Zombie

A single spacesuit-wearing zombie that appears from round 15 onward. It targets one player and attempts to steal their perk - if it grabs you and completes the grab, you lose a random perk.

TIP When the Cosmonaut locks onto someone, all players should shoot it immediately. It has high health - knives and the Wave Gun are the most efficient counters.

Phasing Zombie

In zero-gravity sections, zombies can phase through walls and drop from ceilings at unexpected angles.

TIP Keep rotating and checking all angles in low-gravity tunnels. Fixed corner camping is suicidal on Moon.

Hacker and Excavator Control

01 Hacker priority use

Use hacker for objective acceleration and excavator response windows rather than low-impact convenience hacks.

02 Excavator discipline

Call excavator states immediately so no one commits to unsafe oxygen routes by mistake.

Oxygen and Routing

01 Suit awareness

Never begin long objective movement without confirming suit/oxygen safety first.

02 Area 51 pacing

Strong starts come from disciplined point farming, not over-greedy holds that cause early downs.
