Yuri Petrenko. The game also includes historical battles, such as the Battle of the Bulge , the Battle of Kursk , and the Invasion of Sicily.
A minor deviation from the original game is an on-rails mission set in a plane in which the player mans several M2 Browning machine guns in order to defend an RAF squadron of B Flying Fortresses attempting a first time daylight cross-Channel bombing run on a Nazi-controlled industrial complex in Rotterdam from enemy Luftwaffe fighters. Several new abilities, are added to the game as well, including the ability to deploy light machine guns , use flamethrowers , to sprint which makes the character run faster but at the cost of not being able to fire their weapon , and the ability to "cook" grenades allowing the fuse to burn somewhat before throwing the grenade.
The biggest changes made by United Offensive are in the multiplayer aspect of the game. There are new maps which are much larger than the ones in the original game, new weapons from the single player campaign, an in-game rank system which grants additional bonuses with more points, and vehicles such as tanks and jeeps.
Scott Riley is the first playable protagonist of United Offensive in the American campaign. Riley takes part throughout the entire Bastogne campaign by defending Bois Jacques, capturing and securing the crossroads and town of Foy, and capturing Noville.
James Doyle is the second playable protagonist in United Offensive, serving as the playable character in the British campaign.
Doyle returns along with Maj. Ingram in Call of Duty 3. Yuri Petrenko is the third playable protagonist in United Offensive. Petrenko takes part in the entire Battle of Kursk by defending their trench bases, securing Ponyri, destroying German armor in Prokhorovka, and assaulting and defending Kharkov until the arrival of Soviet reinforcements. Antonov is the player's squad leader during the Battle of Kursk. Antonov survives the entire conflict, as does Pvt. The original Call of Duty maps make a return, since United Offensive is an expansion pack.
In addition to the sixteen maps featured in Call of Duty , there are eleven new maps for the player to play. There are twenty-eight maps altogether. These are their names:. But having seen the scope of some of these levels, we're pretty confident that United Offensive won't be too much shorter than the original, which, let's face it, is a pretty damn good length for an expansion pack.
You find yourself playing in huge areas," explains Mike Denny, one of the game's designers. When we got the tools, we sat down and worked out what we could do with them in the short amount of time we'd been given," adds Robb. We developed a technique which allowed us to have multiple people working on a map at the same time. This meant we could build much bigger maps than the ones in CoD. So onto mission two of our visit, a novel B17 bomber mission. Part of the British campaign, you play the role of a B17 gunner, repelling countless enemy fighters as they attempt to mince your behemoth plane into shrapnel.
After a sedate start, the action soon kicks off for real. Spotting enemy fighters in the distance, our escort Spitfires break off from their defensive formation to engage the enemy. The sky lights up like a Christmas tree as lines of machine-gun fire snake from Bomber turrets in search of enemy targets. All around us is a maelstrom of bullets, fire and smoke as planes buzz below and above like flies around a corpse.
An enemy fighter, tail shot off. The two flying beasts burst into flames, their crews screaming their last desperate wails over the radio. Throughout the mission, we're forced to change our gunner positions as more and more of our crew members fall under the aerial onslaught.
The level ends with our turret being hit and a fall towards earth behind enemy lines, surely an intriguing setup for the following missions. However, despite the novelty value and intensity of the bomber mission, it does feel somewhat repetitive after a while, limited by the plane's claustrophobic dimensions that penned us into a narrow metal tube.
We ask Robb how Gray Matter came up with the idea for this mission. One of the most important things for us was to bring something new to Call Of Duty. We all decided that having you in a B17 would be really unique and something the player hadn't seen before, he explains. Gray Matter has saved the best till last. Imagine the Stalingrad mission from Call Of Duty, only even more bloody and bone-shaking, and you have an idea of what this mission has in store.
Kursk is a titanic map that oozes the horror of battlefield combat like a weeping wound. Tired, hungry, out-manned and outgunned Russian conscripts race through trenches teeming with Germans, towards lines of enemy tanks. The adversary, using sickeningly realistic flamethrowers a Gray Matter trademark , cuts down lines of our comrades, engulfing them in sheets of flames and sending them into a manic dance of death as they flail in an attempt to save themselves.
After the flamethrowers come the machine-gun nests, ripping up flesh with merciless bursts of lead. Finally, the remaining handful of our battered men place explosives on German tanks and watch as they light up the gloom like some grotesque fireworks display.
