Bonus Round Strategy
- To begin, if you look up, to the left and right are windows above the elevator shafts. Here are where the grunts will drop from, making it rain grenades. If you are not careful, you will die very very quickly. My strategy however, is super easy and can get you a killionaire while your at it.
HOW TO GET THAT KILLIONAIRE (UPDATED!): With a rocket launcher in hand, go back to the far stairs (near SMG and Pistol spawns). Stand on the stairs, aiming your rocket launcher into the room (try to aim it so it hits as far inside the room as possible. Thats why you are standing soo far back!). The announcer will say two things: "All Skulls ON" and "Iron ON". Think of "All skulls on" as "get ready". As soon as the announcer says "IRON ON", shoot your rocket. If done correctly, you will get anywhere from a killimanjaro to a killionaire. I suggest you fire one rocket in one window, and another in the other

There is a good tactic on this map to survive very long time even on more challenging difficulties. The players have to enter the elevator and stay at the corners of the elevator. When brutes show up, they will try to melee the ODSTs through the glass, but they won't damage the players. However, with a well-aimed melee, the player can hit the enemy through the glass via aiming at the weapon of the Brute. Also, while an enemy is hitting against the glass, another player can simply go behind the target and assassinate him (That's a excellent tactic for Brutes armed with Gravity Hammers).

*YOU WILL LEARN TO LOVE THE PLASMA PISTOL!!!*
After clearing out infantry (grunts, jackals, drones), all that's usually left are Brutes. Here's the quickest, most effective, and most point affective method for taking down these monstrocities. With a fully charged plasma pistol, fire it at the brute. NOTE that the brute will be stunned for about a second! Take advantage of this, pull out your pistol, pop a shot in his head! You will get a "My Clothes!" medal along with a headshot medal, giving you an extra multiplier.
My method for dealing with HUNTERS: Hunters can be very troublesome! To deal with them, have one person stay close enough to keep him from firing his cannon. Have the 'bait' person lead the hunter away from the team (have one person go left stairs and bait go right stairs for example). The three non bait teammates unload on the hunters back! NOTE during the black eye skull, that hitting a hunter in the back is probably the easiest way to get your health back!
My method for dealing with BRUTE CHIEFTAINS: I'd combine my methods of taking out a hunter and brute. Plasma Pistol the cheiftain, and tagteam him until he goes down. NOTE that he can activate invincibility! DO NOT FEAR! One swift smack to the back not only voids his invincibility, but kills him instantly. So employ the 'bait' strategy and get someone to get the backsmack.

He left out the easiest way to beat the chieftains... During the 4th wave have your designated chieftain killer get a fresh plasma pistol, soon as the 4th wave is over and you see recruitments on top the killer goes runs and gets the rocket launcher. Once the cheiftains come in 1 charged plasma pistol shot and 1 rocket will kill each one.
