Strategy[]
- The Big Daddy Suit is a hotspot, attracting enemies toward it. This can be used to ambush these enemies. However, this can be difficult. Picking up the suit only requires that the action button be hit on the suit, so the player would need to be skilled to keep any enemies at a distance from it.
- Since the ADAM reward for killing the Rosie is far greater than a normal kill, this will make the Rosie a priority target.
- In Free-for-All gamemodes such as Survival of the Fittest or ADAM Grab, if the Rosie is not dealt with properly, it can be capable of eliminating many players across the map. As such, it is recommended that players coordinate attacks on the Rosie if someone should obtain the suit.
- Upon picking up the Big Daddy Suit, the player's health will refill to the Rosie's standard health. This means that the suit can be a life saver in the middle of a fight.

Behind the Scenes[]
- The developers originally planned for D-Pad Up to be bound to let the player spawn as the Rosie. This explains why, in the final game, pressing this button makes the player produce a Big Daddy groan. The help caption reads "Press -DPAD- UP to spawn as a Rosie" as a hint.[1]
