Call Of Duty 2 has outdone expectations by recreating the wars that were actually fought as if we were living them..
Call Of Duty introduced a new fervour to Historic FPS games and its sequel Call Of Duty 2 has taken this to an even higher level.. Putting aside the mind blowing graphics, the game has always put forth immense intensity in its gameplay which just sucked me in, making me feel like I was in the war myself.. The intense dogfights and close quarter combats mixed with improved AI of allies made the game a lot more interesting than its predecessor.. The importance of the grenades has to be highlighted in this game.. they are indispensable when it comes to this game.. The introduction of smoke grenades made this game a lot more elusive.. This gave the player the chance to execute an attack with the element of surprise. Call Of Duty 2 provides more action and of course opportunity to any player who wants to go forth on his own in the game.. The smoke grenades not only provide cover but helps reduce enemy fire for a little time as well.. The enemy AI has improved greatly with the enemy using grenades more efficiently, being more accurate with shots and also providing a tough challenge to the player when it comes to close quarter combat.. The large number of enemies attacking at a time helped to make the game seem more realistic and also made the game a lot more innovative.. After all you almost have unlimited health, as long you duck for cover when you're hurt which lets us take a few risky moves which otherwise we wouldn't have been able to take..
The only thing I found weird about the game was that some of the weapons were almost futile when not used while aiming down the sight.. The efficiency of the Thompson or the BAR increase four fold when aiming down the sight rather than shooting normally.. The Lee-Enfield rifle and the Gewehr 43 were useless at any range until we will aim down the sight.. This turns to make clearing out rooms with many enemies a bit difficult as it becomes a lot more tough to see about the room.. But other than this, the game was a marvel to the core.. Has provided me a great experience and a lot of enjoyment while I played it..
The game has very good graphics and runs exceptionally smoothly at 4x AA and highest graphics.. The lighting and textures in the game were fantastic and contributed to the realism in the game.. The game followed a series of events during WWII where we played the role of a Russian, British or American soldier fighting against the Nazis to bring peace in the world..
The game has struck me hard in the chest and I'm left panting and wating more.. but unfortunately with only 10 levels in this game.. I just have to wait for the release of the next instalment of the Call Of Duty series for the PC to regain the pleasures I experienced while playing this game..
P.S. Again I urge people not to think too much about the use of periods.. It maybe a handicap, it may be a sin for any language freak.. but just learn to DEAL WITH IT!!!
