*Buck describes linking up with the "bee-net," likely an abbreviation for "battlenet," the communications and tactical support network of UNSC military units. It is also a reference to B.net, the colloquial name for [[Bungie.net|Bungie's website]].

*At [[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]], the Par time of this level is three minutes which most the player deemed it impossible due to there are a pair of hunters that need a very careful evasion and evading the fight as much as possible.
*The Marine allies in this level have very low health, even on Easy difficulty. This could be due to injuries sustained in battle or fallout from the in-atmosphere slipspace jump from the ''[[Solemn Penance]]''.
*Finishing under three minutes is difficult, even on legendary. The player must break through the enemy as fast as possible, killing necessary enemies. For speedrunners, it's one of the most challenging missions due to par time.
*This is one of the recommended levels to perform for experienced players when it comes to some of the ''[[Challenges/Halo: The Master Chief Collection|Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'s'' weekly challenges, such as Battle Hardened, Skullduggery, Forza Firefight, and Delta Droppings.
