How a round works

Step
In short Every round follows the same arc: find four numbers, trigger the Alpha Warhead, then get out.

When you load in, your first job is to search the map for four hidden numbers. Once you collect all four, the Alpha Warhead activates and the round moves into its second phase. At that point you pick how to escape.

  1. Search the map spread out and check every corner of the map for the four hidden numbers.
  2. Collect all four you need every number before the Alpha Warhead will activate.
  3. Trigger the Alpha Warhead once all numbers are in, the operation begins and the round shifts into its final phase.
  4. Pick your escape leave by helicopter, drive to the bunker, or take your chances and face the danger directly.
  5. Watch for SCPs the whole time SCP creatures roam the map throughout the round, not just at the end.
