The time factor is very important in Rush for Berlin. Each mission has a certain time allocated and according to how you progress in your mission, the slider will move to the green area (you are ahead of the time planned) or on the red area. The quicker you finish your missions the more troops you will be able to take on the next mission or to gain an advantage over your competitors.

Regarding the multiplayer, Rush for Berlin has a few mods available for you. Too bad that it doesn't has human opponents too because it seems that they avoided the game and you will hardly find online opponents to test your skills against. The first mode is Rush Mode where the players are in a time trial mode to win certain objectives. For each objective completed you receive points and at the end the one with the most points wins. You can also run out of time and you will lose. The second mode is RISK. This mode is more interesting but boring at the same time. Each player receives three objectives, not known to the other players. As you try to ccomplete your objectives, a broadcasting system will inform the other players what you are doing and this will allow them to either hint at your objectives and try to stop you or will dizzle them even more allowing you to create diversions.

The units present in the game are gaining experience and will be more valuable to the player as they become more accurate and more deadlier. The same goes for your officers which gain additional abilities as they gain experience and raise in the ranks.
