Subject: Call of Duty 6 : Modern Warfare 2 Thu Nov 12, 2009 12:09 pm
Characters During the single-player campaign, the player controls 5 different characters from a first-person perspective. For much of the game the player assumes the role of Sergeant Gary "Roach" Sanderson, a member of an elite, multinational commando unit known as Task Force 141... However, the player begins the game as Private Joseph Allen, a U.S. Army Ranger stationed in Afghanistan, who later goes undercover in Russia for the CIA, under the alias "Alexei Borodin". Private James Ramirez is a member of 1st Battalion 75th Ranger Regiment stationed in the United States, and serves as the player character during the defense of U.S east coast during the Russian invasion. The player character in Call of Duty 4, Sergeant "Soap" MacTavish, returns as a non-playable character for most of the game, but once again becomes the player character in the final three missions. In the 5 years since Call of Duty 4, he has promoted to captain in the Special Air Service. He now commands most of the Task Force operations in the field and is Sanderson's superior officer. The player also briefly assumes control of an unnamed International Space Station astronaut during an EVA in the minute or so prior to the International Space Station being destroyed
Several non-playable characters also play prominent roles in the story. Captain MacTavish (In his NPC capacity) serves as Roach's superior and mentor (much as Captain Price served as MacTavish's mentor in Call of Duty 4). Captain Price also returns from Call of Duty 4 to assist TF-141 after MacTavish, Roach, and other TF-141 members rescue him from imprisonment his in a Russian Gulag. The other primary member of the Task Force is Sergeant Simon Riley, a mysterious character who goes by the alias "Ghost" and conceals his face with a balaclava. Sergeant Foley is Joseph Allen's squad leader in Afghanistan, and later James Ramirez's squad leader in the United States. General Shepard is the commander of both TF-141 and the Army Rangers, but becomes the primary antagonist after he betrays the Task Force members near the end of the game. Vladimir Makarov, a former protégé of Imran Zakhaev (the chief antagonist from Call of Duty 4), serves as the primary antagonist throughout most of the story. Plot Modern Warfare 2 is set five years after the conclusion of Call of Duty 4. Despite the efforts of the Marines and the SAS, the Ultranationalists seize control of Russia and declare Zakhaev a hero and martyr. Meanwhile, Vladimir Makarov, one of Zakhaev's former lieutenants, begins a reign of terror against Europe by staging numerous terror attacks.
The game begins in Afghanistan, where US Army Ranger Private Joseph Allen helps take an Afghan city from an army of militants. Impressed, General Shepherd recruits Allen as a CIA operative and places him in Makarov's organization as an undercover operative. Meanwhile, Soap and Roach infiltrate a Russian airbase to recover a lost ACS module. Makarov, however, is one step ahead; he kills Allen, exposes his identity as an American, and turns him into a scapegoat for a brutal terrorist attack on a Russian airport.
Angered by what they believe is an American-supported terrorist attack, Russia stages a surprise invasion of the United States East Coast. Private Ramirez and the US Army Rangers are called upon to defend Washington D.C. from the Russian attack. Meanwhile, Task Force 141 works on taking down Makarov. They go to Rio de Janeiro to chase leads on Makarov's contacts, but these turn out to be dead ends. As a result, Soap decides to rescue one of Makarov's most hated enemies from a Russian prison and use him as bait to draw him out. With assistance from the SEALS and Marines, Task Force 141 manages to free the prisoner, who is revealed to be Price. Price agrees to help them track down Makarov, but knows they must do something extreme to end the war. He temporarily goes rogue, hijacks a Russian nuclear submarine, and launches an ICBM at Washington D.C. However, Price rigs the warhead to explode in the upper atmosphere, which destroys the International Space Station but spares Washington. The resulting electromagnetic pulse cripples both the US and Russian forces in the city. Later, Ramirez and his squad discover that the Air Force will assume that D.C. is lost and carpet bomb the city. The only way to abort the operation is to set off green flares on the roof of the White House, which is under Russian control. Ramirez and his squad fight their way to the roof the building and manage to set off their flares in the nick of time, while green flares on the roofs of other D.C. landmarks signifies that the city remains firmly in American hands.
Narrowing down Makarov's hiding place to two separate locations, Task Force 141 decides to split up. Soap and Price go to the boneyards in Afghanistan, while Roach and Ghost raid Makarov's safehouse in the Caucasus Mountains. The latter obtain vital intelligence to put an end to him for good. However, General Shepherd betrays them and kills both Ghost and Roach. It is discovered that Shepherd masterminded the terrorist attack on the airport, having hired the Ultranationalists to carry out his dirty work and set Allen up as a scapegoat to make Russia declare war on the United States. The resulting war would allow the U.S. to take over Russia, making the U.S. military more powerful and giving Shepherd a reputation as a war hero. Price and Soap manage to escape Shepherd's ambush, and decide to take revenge on him in one final, bloody suicide mission. After a brutal fist-fight, Soap manages to kill Shepherd, but he and Price are seriously wounded in the process. Nikolai then arrives to extract them. Price warns Nikolai that they will be international fugitives for what they've done, but Nikolai insists he knows a safe place to take them.

I dont think the NDS version will be very good...though must be better than most NDS games. I expect better graphics from it since the PS3 and Xbox 360 graphics are just sick!

aha.. i tried the game... quite nice. Good graphics good guns, good story.. though the bad thing is that the narration of the story, and the constant changing of character.
You change from a private, to a sergeant, to a private again. Is like, you wont play a static character....
However, on the overall, i give it 8 out of 10.
Anyone else think otherwise?

I tried it at JB-HI FI today, its very good and i love the shooting effects and such. Yeah, i dont really like the idea of the switching of characters, dont get me wrong, i dont mind it, i just dont want to switch so often as it will get kinda weird. Say like the beginning of Kingdom Hearts II - You start of as Roxas, good then you use Sora and never use Roxas again, and at the end of the game you take a turn at using Riku. If you switch characters rarley then its alright but not as much as COD 6 gives us.

Hmmm as soon as i get an Xbox 360 i will =D I was at a friends house today and we were playing COD for a couple hours and i got a change to try out all this different kind of modes except campaign lol. We did a mode where we were just sniping and protecting our base, i reckon that was really fun, i think we were doing Special Ops. But i hate how u have to revive your partner everytime he is bleeding out and it gets really annoying because if your in the middle of shooting and ur partner falls and if u hav to get there before 1:00 min or he'll die? But i guess thats the challenge of the game =D
