On most maps, the offense needs to complete a certain set of objectives within a limited amount of time. The defense needs to keep the offense from completing objectives until time runs out. Some objectives may be optional, and some objectives can be carried out by either team. These minor objectives assist the team completing them. Depending on game mode the action will continue on another map (Campaign Mode) or the same map (Objective Mode, Stopwatch Mode, Last Man Standing).

Experienced players should watch the timer all the time—dying to a 1-second spawn practically means losing your position (and a life, if the server has the rarely used Limited Lives feature enabled) and resetting your health and ammo, while a 30-second spawn can be deadly if there are only a few players. A good tactic is to find out the spawn time of your enemy, for example looking at the mission timer, and time your attacks so that every dead opponent will have to wait a full-time spawn.

	'''Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory''' is a [~~[Free and open~~-~~source software\|~~free and open source]] multiplayer [[first-person shooter]] [[video game]] set during [[World War II]]. It was originally planned to be released as a commercial [[expansion pack]] to ''[[Return to Castle Wolfenstein]]'' and later as a standalone game. However, due to problems with the single-player aspect, the multiplayer portion was released on 29 May 2003 as a [[freeware]] standalone game. In January 2004, the [[source code]] for the game logic (not the game engine) was released to the benefit of its [~~[mod~~ (~~computer gaming~~)\|modding]] community.
