That way of thinking reminds me of games more along the lines of “Metal Gear 2” and “Batman: Arkham Asylum/City.” You’ll be thinking about who you want to hit next and how you want to hit them, making the game a bit more intense than run and gun scenes found elsewhere. The overall gameplay is much different than “Call of Duty.” Rather than run from one scene to the next mowing down everything in sight, you’ll be using your brain a bit more to strategically take out targets of opportunity. There are also some hidden items to find, should you have an inner completionist that needs appeased. In between missions, you’ll be able to customize your loadout and view a map of the area in question. Things don’t get as hectic and crazy as the “Call of Duty” games, but you’ll still be fleeing from tanks and ducking behind cover to avoid being blown to kingdom come. The pacing is a mixed bag, as sometimes you’ll be in some pretty intense action sequences and other times you’ll be sneaking around, trying to find ways to get to your map marker without dying. You’ll have a lot of different keys to keep track of, though luckily the game keeps track of custom keybinds and displays help when appropriate. The single player campaign starts you off with a tutorial to help you get acclimated to all of the keybinds and gameplay mechanics. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of the “CSI Cam.” You can either join an existing server or create your own, having various modes like team death match and capture the flag to choose from. Multiplayer has your typical lobby menu and from what I saw, there is plenty of activity. Co-op allows you to play a quick match, create a private game, and view leaderboards. You can set enemy skill level, ballistics realism, and tactical assistance, should you decided to forgo picking one of the presets. Starting a new single player game involves choosing a difficulty level, though you can customize your settings if you wish. The extras include credits, career stats, and benchmarks. I’m glad to have so many different ways to customize my experience. There’s too many to list here, which impresses me. The options menu is extremely meaty, letting you adjust things like screen resolution, bullet cam frequencies, volume sliders, mouse sensitivity, keybinds, graphics detail, brightness, and a number of advanced graphics options. You’ll be able to start / continue a single player game, play with others in co-op & multiplayer, view leaderboards, check out extras, and adjust game options. The main menu has a variety of different options available.
