The Battlefield 2 developers do not disappoint,again they have brought us one of the most thrilling FPS to this date.
BF2's gameplay is much like Vietnam,you run around trying to steal the flag from enemy bases,and move on.Of course,you gotta expect to take down some enemies on your way too. There are several new classes in BF2,if I am correct there is the Special Forces,the Support, and the medic. Special Forces have the ability to plant C4,and they are basically this stealth infiltration group.While support can kill a huge amount of enemies with few shots,and has the ability to replenish ammo for people.The medic can revive and heal members,and has a weapon on par with the Special Forces equipment. A few new features are also added,among them the Squads,and the commanding position
You now have the ability to form a squad,this opens up to whole new means of tactics,not only can you talk to your squad directly using a microphone set,you can also issue simple commands. These commands will draw a line to the area of command,with the order to attack,defend etc.
You can also request artillery or supplies.And this is where the commander comes in...
The commander is in charge of the aquads,he get's the requests for artillery or supplies. The commander can perform a scan for all enemies (except Special Forces) Release a huge artillery upon the enemy,and his own unites if they don't get out of the way. He can drop supplies if needed,even put up a radar so that people can see where a huge pack of the enemies are gathering.
The last big new feature on Battlefield 2 is the rank system,where you gain points from kills,flag captures,heals,and commanding. By gaining this you can unlock new weapons,and medals. This also affects your chance of getting applied as commander,since the user with most points usually get's the job.
Furthermore,the game doesn't have all those fancy songs you had in Vietnam,rather the game has gone over in a more realistic fashion. With actual real-life gun & airplane noise. The specter of sounds is just great,though I do miss those catchy tunes from Vietnam.
When you're close to a tank who fires it's payload your screen get's kinda fuzzy and the sound turns over in a summing noise,due to the high volum of sound,and the impact upon your character. This is just awesome,and feeling that with a surround you really get blown away.
The graphics of the game is great,some of the best I've seen,though it requires a pretty strong computer to drive.Not worring to much about that,I must say this is one of the more spectacular graphics I have seen.
The Battlefield 2 developers do not disappoint,again they have brought us one of the most thrilling FPS to this date.With it's awesome graphics,wicked sounds, and mindblowing gameplay they've created a game that will be remembered for a long time... or 'till it's sequel.
