Now it?s time to play the game, after you choose which Special Forces team you are going to play as. A new and better mission briefing cut scene has been done, and it looks great. Once the game started, it felt familiar, but the changes where for the better. This is a great addition when you play this game with three other people on a regular basis. Now, you can create your own personal profile and save your settings. A new change is the introduction of the user profile. Everything from the menu screens to the game?s graphics has been revamped. Within the first few seconds of playing the game, I knew immediately changes where made. Now that Conflict: Desert Storm 2 ? Back to Baghdad has been released, it?s time to see if the new game is worth the trip back into combat. Though in all, the first installment turned out to be a very good game, it was not without its various problems. If you had less than 4 players, then the AI would control the extra man, though he would always be under command of player one for his orders. One of the main features of the Conflict series was that 4 players could play through the game as one squad. The game was touted as Xbox?s answer to the Playstation 2?s SOCOM Navy Seals. The AI controlled teammates played themselves to be useful, and they where completely competent to handle combat duties while you fought alongside them. Each member in your squad has a skill that is just as important as the next. Much like Brute Force, you could switch between any character at any time, and your squad would react as a team or independently, depending on the situation. The player took control of one character and had 3 others in his squad. The missions where based on real missions that took place during the war, and it put the gamer directly into the boots of either a US Army Delta Force squad or that of the British Special Air Service.
Conflict brought gamers into the first Gulf War and combined elements of arcade shooter with military squad tactics. A sleeper hit that didn?t bring very much attention, but still managed to sell a million copies.
It?s time to head back to Iraq and get back to work.īefore there was Brute Force, last year?s Conflict Desert Storm was the first game to bring 4 player squad combat to the Xbox.
Our heroes from the first Desert Storm missions: Bradley ? Team Leader, Foley- Sniper, Connors-Heavy Weapons, Jones-Medic have been called into action once again.
