Introduction:
For
many years now EA has been releasing great games including Black &
White, C&C Red Alert 2 and many more. Remember how successful
Counter-Strike has been for the last years? Well, if you liked
Counter-Strike you will love this game.
Let me snip some bit about
the game into the introduction, what makes this game different is the
opportunity to pick the player you want to play with, each player has
his own specialty the "medic" with the ability to cure people, the
"sniper" with the ability of shooting far and accurately, the "recon"
with the ability of locating enemy's on his radar, the "commando" with
the ability of carrying many weapons, the "demoman" with the ability of
defusing and charging large explosives, the "heavy gunner" with the
ability of controlling heavy guns to end with the original
"intelligence officer".
Graphics:
While the game is very
realistic in many ways, the graphics appear cartoonish, in a bad
manner. What I do like about the graphics is how they make the guns and
equipment seem to be so real. However the houses, soldiers, trees,
sand; don't give the impression of being so real. But Global Operations
has the great single and multiplayer game to compensate for it; you
will not have enough time to matter if the graphics aren't the best.
Sounds / Music:
The
sound and music are great; they are both very realistic and make the
game play much better. They made sounds for everything walking,
running, reloading, shooting, talking etc. For quite the first time in
my playing life, the sound really affects the gameplay, it is not just
a matter of full 3d sounds to track down other people, a close
explosion could do as much damage as driving you deaf for a little
amount of time! The only thing that's repetitive about the sound is
that both teams have the same voice of an allied trooper, example: say
you are U.S.A army, vs. Mexico and you want to tell your troops to GO!
It will sound the same way if the Mexico team tells their troops to GO!
Anyway the sound system is an impressive effort and each single weapon
has its own different sound.
Gameplay:
Like I wrote in
the introduction you choose a character out of six, Medic, Sniper,
Commando, Recon, Heavy gunner and demo man and each one has his own
specialties. Like I remarked earlier, this game is very realistic,
everything in this game is life-like including guns, equipment and even
the missions. Some of the equipment you have in this game is night
vision, thermal vision, flash grenades, grenades, scopes and much more.
After you pick the character and equipment you want for your character
you start the game and have to participate in missions that happened in
real life; when you are finished with the good-boy team campaign you
can then head on playing the bad team campaign. Each mission has a
different story line, as an example in the first mission you're the
allied side attacking a fortress in Mexico and your objectives is to
blow up two possessions. The opposite team, Mexico needs to defend
these from allies instead. In this mission Allies are tagged as the
good ones whilst Mexicans are the bad guys. Sadly the Artificial
Intelligence is way too smart and often it will cover bits of gameplay
that should be left to the player. Global Operations requires not
enough strategy in single player mood, often you will feel like the
mission could have been completed without your efforts. There's a cash
reward, and that was extremely well thought, everything you makes will
get you some money, time you have been alive, people taken down and
more, to enhance the excitement when you are shot your possessions are
not lost, they will just lie close to the dead body ready to be
collected again. The multiplayer game in Global Operations is fun and
amazing; everything missing in single player mode is now there: other
players, real cooperation and more will make you rejoice. Of course you
can choose to play on LAN or on the Internet. It is very similar to
Counter-Strike with up to 24 players and 2 teams. As in single player
it is a matter of 2 teams, each one has an own objective, of course the
reward system will boost the game in multiplayer a lot more than in
single player mode. The game is worth your money, though you must be
willing to play it in multiplayer mode, single player looks like some
training ground to the multi party, not a game on its own.
Conclusion:
In
conclusion this is a solid game with lith-tech enigne level graphics,
but a game that compensates by being very realistic and a great
single/multiplayer game. This is really a game you can have a lot of
fun with on a LAN party, if you dare moving a bit away from
Counter-Strike and trying something new.
