Something which stands out very early on, is the care that has been taken toward narrative. It’s incredibly satisfying and allows you to forge onwards, deeper into enemy territory. character will cause them to either gun them down, or perhaps even snipe them from a distance. Simply telling your squad to attack a particularly aggressive enemy A.I. With squad-mates on hand, you can tactically out-flank the enemy to give yourself an advantage, one which you’ll need as you can soon become overrun with enemies, pinned into cover until you can find a way to return fire. The bright red bloody visuals combined with genuine tension let you know that you’re somewhere you’re not welcome, but you’re not alone. Of course it retains the realistic imagery you’d expect from a game set in the real-world realm, but from the moment you set foot into the Dubai desert, trudging into enemy territory to try and rescue soldiers, you’ll see more than just the dull colour palette. The broken sounding US national anthem is the first thing you are greeted with, followed by a visual flare not often seen in a shooter, it’s hard not to fall almost immediately in love with how it looks. You see, despite there being a plethora of games of this ilk out there, Spec Ops contains enough unique aspects to make it truly…dare I say it…exciting!
Thankfully though, Spec Ops: The Line is no one trick pony, bombast and Hollywood be damned, it also plays host to some tactical battles, using squad instruction to help the player out in the battle, giving its very own edge in the war on other third person shooters. Opening with a helicopter gun-battle is always a bold move, one intended to reveal to the audience exactly what a game is all about.
