Today I bring you gameplay from the game Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War. This was a mission to retrieve a mainframe computer from an old soviet union satellite base. You will get to see some crazy fighting and how rough the battlefield was as it was positioned at the top of a fold mountain covered in ice and full of rough terrains and the whole place was on the verge of collapsing too.
The mission was named Echos of A Cold War and we got help from a soviet agent who dropped us near the base with his helicopter. We had 2 hours to complete the mission otherwise he would abandon us and escape with the helicopter as he was short on fuel and also scared of getting caught.
The scenery is beautiful and scarry too. We were way above the ground fighting a dangerous mission but this beautiful scenery helped me to stay clam and to be honest, I enjoyed this first scene.
The helicopter you see far away in the sky, that's our ride. Belicov is moving to a safer location so that the soviet soldiers and their radars don't find him.
The valley looks amazing and scary from up here at the same time, doesn't it? But I have to slide down this slope to get down.
After sliding down, this is the spot I stopped at. For a moment I thought, I was going to fall down.
There were some soldiers guarding the path. So, I used my sniper and Woods used his knife to eliminate them silently while keeping our stealth position.
This is where we met the end of out path. The only way to pass is this zipline but there were soldiers on both ends proceting it. We easily eliminated the ones at our side but killing the ones at the other side of the mountain was a rough challenge. I was getting shot many times trying to fix my aim as they were quite far away, it was hard even with the sniper.
And the only way to pass this ridge was this zipline. "I hope it holds", was my character's dialogue.
Even though it looked scary, using the zipline was quite exciting. Mainly the animation. I hope I'll get to experience such a thrill in real life someday though I'm quite afraid of heights.
Do you see that huge antenna far away? That's where we need to go and that's not it. Inside is a huge place.
We took our position here as Wood noticed quite some enemy snipers guarding the place and if we plan to enter there unnoticed, we have to take them down first.
Eliminating them was quite tough but I took down the first two easily.
It was the third and fourth snipers that were giving me the most trouble as you can see my situation in the image below. I spotted the third sniper's position but I needed to change my position cause I was not getting visual on him because of a tree.
This Whole Battle was getting more and more hard and all my plans to stay quiet were failing because of this last sniper. No matter what I did, we were not being able to spot his position.
So, I decided to take a bold move and started running in a zig-zag pattern, hoping he would shoot at me and I could spot him because of the muzzle flash. And it worked. I was only seeing a little part of his head and I missed the shot but then he decided to change his spot exposing his whole body while he was moving and I was finally able to kill him.
There were a few more in the gate guarding the entrance and I killed the first batch using my sniper but it was not well effective in close range.
Luckily I got this AK-47 from one of the dead enemies and it was dead effective and good thing is, I also found an ammo crate and got 300 ammo there. What more can a soldier ask for?
And After this long struggle, we were able to enter the facility. Now see what waits next for us.
