Gameplay
''Day of Infamy'' draws much of its gameplay from '' Insurgency''. ''Day of Infamy'' lacks a crosshair, HUD map, and on certain servers, a kill feed. Players can die very quickly from very few shots. Respawns occur in waves to simulate reinforcements (when the team has these waves available). Each player gets a number of Supply Points they can spend on weapons and gear for their soldier, a class in each team to select and a weight system which affects stamina and player speed. Each team receives a certain number of reinforcement waves dependent on game mode, and gains supply points by completing map objectives and killing players from the opposing team. Players are divided into two teams: Allies ( United States Army, British Army, Canadian Army, Second Australian Imperial Force,Game modes
Battles/Casual
* Frontline: Both teams must fight over and capture five objectives on the map. Each team has a Radio at their base, which can be destroyed by the enemy team. Teams gain or lose reinforcement waves by completing or losing objectives. The match ends if a team holds the most objectives by the end of the match time limit, destroys the enemy's Radio, or depletes the enemy's reinforcements. * Invasion: The attacking team must sequentially advance through objectives that are held by the defending team, which has more reinforcement waves. The defending team's final objective has an HQ Radio; once this objective is active, they lose their reinforcement waves and must protect the Radio. The attacking team wins if they destroy the enemy's Radio or eliminate the enemy team; the defending team wins if they manage to hold the line or deplete the attacking team's reinforcements. * Offensive: Invasion, except the defending team has infinite reinforcements. However, they must regroup at their spawn to reinforce their team, which can allow the attacking team to advance. The attacking team is not changed. * Liberation: Similar to Frontline, there are five objectives that must be captured; however, they may be captured in any order at any time. Bonuses are given for taking objectives behind enemy lines. The match ends if a team holds the most objectives by the end of the match time limit or depletes the enemy's reinforcements.Special Assignments
