2 Covert Strike.is a computer game
developed by Innerloop Studios and released by Codemasters in 2003. The game is
a stealth based first person shooter. It is the sequel to Innerloop’s Project I
G I 1I’m Going In. The original, published by Eidos Interactive, offered only
single player play. Chris Ryan, a former Special Air Service operative best
known for being the lone successful escapee of Bravo Two Zero, served as a
consultant to the game. The box art is similar to the poster for GoldenEye.
The game’s plot
features a rogue Chinese General, “Wu Xing” as the primary antagonist. Xing
orchestrates various events (such as armed robbery of advanced prototype
technology from the Russian mafia) in order to get Electromagnetic pulse (EMP)
weaponry on a space rocket that he has launch control over. At the end of the
game, the protagonist David Jones is finally able to defeat him and stop the
launch. The game was banned in China, because it “intentionally blackened China
and the Chinese army’s image”. It received generally negative reviews by
critics.
Missions
and Storyline
The game is divided
into missions, and the story is presented in cut scenes, shown before and after
every mission, with animated characters rendered in real-time and pre-recorded
speech. This approach is similar to other games in this genre, which don’t rely
on video, instead providing a comparable quality of visual and dramatic appeal,
reusing the same in-game 3D engine for cut scene rendering.
Missions have
objectives that must all be completed before the mission ends.
Straight-forward
tactics are not encouraged, with stealthy and covert movement giving the player
a better rating, rank and chance of survival, with the highest attainable
ranking entitled David Jones.
Multiple paths exist
for every mission, with the most obvious and daunting being a noisy gun-fight,
because in every mission Jones is outnumbered anywhere from 20-1 up to 50-1.
Every mission presents an opportunity for large groups of enemies to be
bypassed or sneaked past, undiscovered. Certain missions even require entire
operations to be carried out undetected, i.e. without giving enemies a chance
to sound the alarm, as the name Covert Strike suggests.
At the start of a new
game, a difficulty level can be chosen, changing the number of bullets Jones
takes before dying, the intelligence of the enemy and group AI, and the number
of save games available
