Code Violet Hostile Forces
In addition to prehistoric dinosaurs, Code Violet features human adversaries working for the Aion Bioengineering Complex and the Director. These hostile forces represent the institutional opposition to Violet’s escape attempts and add significant tactical complexity to combat encounters.
Security Forces
Basic Security Guards
- Equipment: Standard issue Aion security gear
- Weapons: Pistols, basic rifles, stun batons
- Armor: Light protective gear with Aion insignia
- Intelligence: Basic training, following protocols
- Behavior: Patrol routes, alarm responses, facility lockdown
Combat Strategy: Standard military tactics work well, aim for headshots, use cover effectively. They’re vulnerable to stealth attacks and will call for reinforcements when alerted.
Elite Security Teams
- Equipment: Advanced combat gear, tactical helmets
- Weapons: Assault rifles, combat shotguns, flashbang grenades
- Armor: Heavy ballistic protection, advanced helmets
- Intelligence: Specialized combat training, team coordination
- Behavior: Flanking maneuvers, tactical positioning, hostage situations
Combat Strategy: Elite teams coordinate attacks and use suppressive fire. Grenades and explosives are highly effective against their coordinated tactics.
Security Officers
- Command Structure: Ranked officers leading security teams
- Equipment: Officer-grade weapons, communication devices
- Abilities: Can call reinforcements, activate security systems
- Intelligence: Strategic thinking, facility knowledge
- Behavior: Direct team actions, use of environmental tactics
Combat Strategy: Officers are priority targets due to their command ability. Taking out officers first can disorganize their teams and prevent reinforcements.
Specialized Units
Commando Forces
- Equipment: Stealth gear, silenced weapons, climbing equipment
- Weapons: Submachine guns with silencers, combat knives
- Armor: Light armor for mobility, thermal vision
- Intelligence: Special operations training, facility infiltration
- Behavior: Stealth movement, ambush tactics, sabotage operations
Combat Strategy: Commando units excel at stealth but are vulnerable in direct combat. Use melee takedowns and environmental stealth to gain advantage.
Heavy Weapons Teams
- Equipment: Heavy armor, explosive ordnance, defensive positions
- Weapons: Heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, rocket launchers
- Armor: Maximum ballistic protection, fortified positions
- Intelligence: Explosives expertise, defensive tactics
- Behavior: Area denial, suppressing fire, defensive perimeters
Combat Strategy: Heavy teams are slow but extremely deadly. Flanking maneuvers and explosive weapons work best, while avoiding their suppressive fire zones.
Tech Specialists
- Equipment: Advanced engineering tools, security bypass devices
- Weapons: Precision rifles, EMP devices, security keycards
- Armor: Light armor with tool integration
- Intelligence: Technical expertise, facility systems knowledge
- Behavior: System hacking, security override, environmental control
Combat Strategy: Tech specialists rely on equipment rather than combat skill. Destroying their tools and preventing system access is crucial.

Combat Encounters
- First Boss Battle: In Communications Facility
- Multiple Phases: Uses different weapons and tactics
- Environmental Control: Can activate security systems and hazards
- AI Assistance: Coordinates with other security units
- Behavior: Tactical retreat, strategic positioning, adaptive tactics
Combat Strategy: Rostova is a challenging boss who adapts to player tactics. Phase 1 uses standard tactics, Phase 2 employs environmental weapons, Phase 3 becomes more aggressive and unpredictable.
The Director’s Forces
Personal Guard Units
- Equipment: Cybernetic enhancements, experimental weapons
- Weapons: Advanced energy weapons, specialized ammunition
- Armor: Light but technologically advanced armor
- Intelligence: Enhanced reflexes, tactical programming
- Behavior: Unwavering loyalty to Director, no retreat
Combat Strategy: These guards are elite but lack adaptability. They follow predictable patterns despite advanced gear.
Experimental Units
- Equipment: Prototype weapons, biological enhancements
- Abilities: Enhanced strength, speed, or perception
- Weaknesses: Experimental instability, maintenance requirements
- Behavior: Ruthless efficiency, mission-focused
- Appearance: Varied based on experimental procedures
Combat Strategy: Experimental units are dangerous but predictable. Learn their attack patterns and exploit their enhanced nature against them.
Civilian Personnel
Scared Scientists
- Behavior: Panic, hiding, attempting to flee
- Threat Level: Non-combatants, may interfere or help
- Actions: Running, locking doors, accidental alerts
- Role: Environmental hazard during combat encounters
Strategy: Avoid involving civilians in combat when possible. They may provide assistance if protected from dinosaurs.
Medical Staff
- Behavior: Attempting to treat wounded, protecting patients
- Equipment: Medical supplies, defensive weapons
- Threat Level: Generally non-hostile unless provoked

Direct Combat Tactics
- Weapon Superiority: Better weapons and ammunition provide advantage
- Cover Management: Using environmental protection effectively
- Flanking Maneuvers: Attacking from unexpected angles
- Resource Management: Conserving ammunition for priority targets
Environmental Warfare
- Explosive Traps: Using explosive barrels and mines
- System Sabotage: Disabling security cameras and doors
- Structural Damage: Creating tactical advantages through environment
- Hazards Activiation: Using facility systems against enemies
The hostile forces in Code Violet provide strategic variety beyond dinosaur encounters, creating complex combat scenarios that require tactical thinking and adaptation of strategies.
