Introduction
Hello. In this guide I will show you some of, as far as I think, broken mechanics.
Some of these mechanics:
  1. Throwing a medkit at the wall and picking it up, heals double amount of health (for example 2000HP medkit heals 4000HP);
  2. Guns that fire pellets (shockfield etc) all heals more HP with biosynthesis (each kill per pellet heals);
  3. Smart target and gear damage bonuses apply their bonus to base damage of the weapon only;
  4. Deadly force only works on base damage (no additional from example armor);
  5. Dark Minions ignore more armor than they should (supposed to be 75%);
  6. You can open the middle loot room on Onslaught by breaking the door with the WP Flamethrower from behind (without letting zombie's break barricade);
  7. On the Last Stand map it is possible for the wave counter to go above 8.;
  8. Skill Pay Grade applies only for end game cash. That means you should play few more times survivors and DO NOT invest in that skill.
  9. The classes are unbalanced. Heavy (with right build) is easiest to play and reach 100lvl. Here's my guide about builds:

  10. You can reroll boxes, Nightmare tickets and event rewards (for black key):

    Let me tell you some secrets:
    This is how rerolling works. You have to have your steam account connected to your phone account. Have it synced. Now, say you have a black box, you first open that box on steam and see if you get anything good. If you get something good, then you open settings menu and do force back up. If not, then you exit the steam version without saving. And open the phone version. It takes quite a while for steam and phone to sync. You load into mobile version and chose cloud storage. And open black box on phone and if you get something good, you do force back up. You could do this infinitely. This also works with NM tickets.
  11. You can reset NM tickets with just changing your local time (nothing more advanced);
  12. "You can be a ancient player" (a joke);

  13. You can quit on survivors before killing boss and still earn money. That way you can get almost 2x more money in the same time;
  14. Most premium weapons are not strong enough for high/high-end lvl's. For me only Zerfallen and Proton Arc are useful for all lvl's (but there's still few better black weapons);

  15. You can shoot though the subway doors on Vaccine map with most of weapons;

  16. You can change your faction by changing your local time (like NM tickets);
  17. The SAS5 will be somewhat different:(joke)

I noticed you mentioned subway car glitches but seemed to have missed the one where you can just be outside of the subway cars as they are moving if you leave at the right moment.

To add about Zerfallen.
Hitting Zerfallen against the wall will allow the blast to damage the enemy again. In other words, one shot has the power of two shots.
In addition, hitting Zerfallen towards the corner of the wall can cause it to explode twice. In other words, one shot has the power of three shots.
If you have Zerfallen, give it a try.

There's a faction war mode? Things have changed since I last played...

Faction at Faction War Mode. It should automatically reset but player can do it by his own

Change your faction? What faction, whether you're a zombie or a human?

Also (not sure if it's normal but i doubt it) for some odd reason at level 17 or 18 i believe you get one more skill point that usual.
