INTRODUCTION:
This is a black op mission. The standard stuff. Blow up that, kill that, blow that, proceed to extraction point. We all know the plot too well.
OVERVIEW:
Not much, no picture, and it doesnÂ't scream out "play me!".
INTRO:
You get a breif from a commander on an airbase. Scripted, thank god.
BREIFING:
Are you the kind of guy who loves to read 10 pages of breifing? Then youÂ'll love this breifing. I like more a quick, but understandable breifing because all you want to do is to get to the action. However, you donÂ't have to read everything to understand what you need to do, which is good for those who are as me.
I couldnÂ't find any spelling errors. Perhaps one, but itÂ's not much for a breif that big.
A big weapons selection, a must for black ops missions.
Very well done!
THE MISSION:
The first objective is to blow up a Shilka. At your first try you might find it easy, but thereÂ's always a patrol that catch you. The place a crawling with russians and you really get the stealth atmosphere. Even I who always complete stealth missions by blowing up half the map was forced to make a stealth entry. After a try or two you enter the camp.
Now is the difficult part of the mission, to blow up the shilka and get out of there. Since itÂ's very dark I crawl the whole way back, but it ainÂ't as easy as entering, because now the guards are looking for me. And theyÂ've got several boats with search lights.
However, DarkAngel as made it possible to leave the area, as well as entering the area in many, many ways.So far so good. Now to the bad part.
Your second objective is to upload a virus to a comm center computer. You might think that a virus is something new but it have exactly the same style as blowing up the computer.
*REMOVED BECAUSE I DIDNÂ'T PLAY CADET MODE*The comm center is bang, bang, duh, me like bang, bang. Far away from the strategy of the shilka destroy.
There are a lot of enemies too. Too many. Why the hell put 50 people on a hill that only got 2, 3 tents? I would have put some AA soldiers/vehicles and some guards over there. And perhaps put some mines around.
The guards scripting arenÂ't the greatest either. Some of the guards react like crapI donÂ't want to spoil what is gonna happened next but I recommend you take the Ural. The AI have some strange problems and donÂ't want to board the UAZ.
OUTRO:
Scripted, but not very much. You see a fight between a couple of guys in Modrava and thatÂ's it. You see some credits and stuff but that is really it. Cool music though, sounds like Seventh but IÂ've must have missed it cause I didnÂ't recognize it. A standard outro, 5/10.
OVERALL:
A very nice black op mission. Deserves your download.
