Yager started the game's development in 2007, taking inspiration for its setting and story framework from various media, including Heart of Darkness and Apocalypse Now. The game was designed to be «physically opposing», causing players to question their thoughts about treating war in a video game as entertainment, and tasks players to make a variety of morally ambiguous decisions. The game suffered from multiple delays, as the team used this period of time to refine the story and increase the gameplay's pace. The game's soundtrack is a mix of licensed music and original music composed by Elia Cmíral.

Video game critics gave Spec Ops: The Line generally positive reviews. Praise focused on its narrative and themes, while criticism was targeted at the online multiplayer mode and generic third person gameplay. Spec Ops: The Line was a commercial failure and did not garner the attention that distributor Take-Two Interactive had hoped for, but it was awarded and nominated for several end-of-the-year accolades particularly for its story. Yager announced that there would not be a sequel to the game. The game was banned in the United Arab Emirates for its depiction of Dubai in a state of destruction.

Gameplay

The player can select from four difficulty levels: Walk on the Beach, Combat Op, Suicide Mission, and FUBAR. A player only gain access to the FUBAR difficulty after completing the game on Suicide Mission. Various new weapons and equipment become available as the game progresses, some dropped by downed enemies. These include several different rifles, handguns, and machine guns. Some offer alternate firing modes, like attaching a suppressor or using a telescopic sight. Players can also acquire and make use of grenade launchers, hand grenades, and turrets. However, the player can only carry two weapons at a time. Supply caches can be found in different parts of the game, allowing the player to refill their ammo and grenades. Whenever the player successfully shoots an enemy in the head, the game enters a slow-motion mode for a short period of time. The player can also defeat enemies at close range via melee combat. Dying enemies can be executed, which grants the player additional ammo. Hiding behind cover can provide protection and prevents the player from being shot, as well as providing opportunities to blindfire or lean out to shoot enemies.

As a third-person shooter with an emphasis on squad-based tactics, players can issue commands to Sergeant Lugo and Lieutenant Adams, who accompany the player for most of the game. Available commands include focusing fire on one particular target and ordering medical attention for an injured squad member. Adams can defeat enemies by using heavy gadgets or throwing grenades, while Lugo provides sniping assistance. Environmental hazards like sandstorms occasionally occur, drastically reducing a player's visibility. Sand becomes a key gameplay mechanic and players can manipulate it at scripted moments in the game, such as triggering a sand avalanche to bury enemies alive. When a grenade explodes on sand, dust clouds that can blind enemies are formed. Sand sometimes opens up new paths to allow players to progress.

The player needs to make moral decisions at certain points during the game, including making choices that can determine the fate of both soldiers and civilians. These decisions affect the relationship between Walker and his squadmates, and will cause them to react differently. The game has several subtle effects as the team starts losing their sanity, including the degradation of their combat uniforms. Walker has visual and auditory hallucinations later into the game, and his executions of enemies become more violent. The orders and shouts to his team become increasingly angry and ragged in contrast to his original stern command voice. His kill confirmations of enemies corrupts from professional in the beginning to psychotic. Similarly, loading screens initially display helpful gameplay hints for the player, but as the game progresses, the text becomes increasingly hostile towards Walker's actions, and sometimes breaks the fourth wall by addressing the player directly. The game features collectibles known as Intel, which are audio logs that provide additional backstory for players. Spec Ops The Line game free Download for PC Full Version.

Multiplayer

Set before the events of the campaign, the competitive multiplayer divides players into two different teams: The Exiles and The Damned. Both teams have their respective perks. Six classes are available for players to choose: Gunner, Medic, Scavenger, Breacher, Sniper and Officer. Each have their own upgrades and advantages. Environmental hazards, including sandstorms, may also occur during a multiplayer match. The game modes featured in the multiplayer include:

• Chaos: A free-for-all mode, in which players eliminate other players.
• Mutiny: A team deathmatch mode, in which a team of players eliminates the opposing team.
• Rally Point: A «King of the Hill»-styled match, in which players secure a rally point and accumulate score for their team.
• Uplink: Both teams are tasked to capture a central rally point, and disable the opposing team's COM Station to prevent them from receiving points.
• Attrition: Players engage in three team elimination rounds with only one life per round and no respawning until the round is over.
• Buried: A team of players is tasked to destroy the opposing team's Vital Points, which reveal their High Value Target upon destruction. Players are tasked to eliminate the opposing team's target in order to win the match.

A cooperative mode was added to the game after its launch. It supports two players and features four missions. Players are tasked to defeat multiple waves of enemies and complete a series of objectives, similar to a horde mode.

Synopsis

Setting

Six months prior to the game's events, the worst series of sandstorms in recorded history began across Dubai. The city's politicians and wealthy elite downplayed the situation before evacuating secretly, leaving countless Emiratis and foreign migrant workers behind. Colonel John Konrad (Bruce Boxleitner), the decorated but PTSD-troubled commander of the «Damned 33rd» Infantry Battalion of the United States Army, was returning home with his unit from Afghanistan when the storms struck. Konrad volunteered the 33rd to help relief efforts, and when ordered by the Army to abandon the city and its refugees, he deserted with the entire battalion. As the storms intensified, a massive storm wall engulfed Dubai, disrupting surveillance, air travel, and all but the strongest of radio broadcasts. Struggling to maintain order amid 80 mph (128 kmh) winds, riots, and dwindling resources, the 33rd declared martial law and began committing atrocities on the civilian population. Aggrieved by this, some members of the 33rd staged a coup d’etat against Konrad that failed and they were exiled. The CIA then sent in a black ops unit to investigate, and as part of their plan they organized the locals into insurgents to attack the 33rd, eventually resulting in a ceasefire. The last communication from Dubai stated that the 33rd was attempting to lead a caravan out of the city. The caravan never arrived, and soon afterward, the United Arab Emirates declared Dubai a no-man's-land. All travel to the city was barred, the 33rd was publicly disavowed for treason, and no further news left the city.

Two weeks before the start of the game, a looped radio signal finally penetrated the storm wall. Its message was brief: «This is Colonel John Konrad, United States Army. Attempted evacuation of Dubai ended in complete failure. Death toll... too many.» The United States military decides to covertly send in an elite three-man Delta Force team to carry out reconnaissance. The team, consisting of Captain Martin Walker (Nolan North), First Lieutenant Alphanso Adams (Christopher Reid), and Staff Sergeant John Lugo (Omid Abtahi), are ordered to confirm the presence of any survivors, then immediately radio for extraction.

Plot

The game begins in medias res with Walker, Adams, and Lugo aboard a helicopter flying past the skyscrapers of Dubai. While Adams pilots, Walker shoots down several pursuing helicopters with an emplaced minigun turret. However, a sudden sandstorm forms, causing one of the pursuing helicopters to spin out of control and crash into the trio.

The story jumps back to the beginning, with Walker, Adams, and Lugo traversing the storm wall to the outskirts of a mostly-buried Dubai. Throughout their journey, Delta team is taunted on broadcasts by the Radioman (Jake Busey), a former journalist turned DJ who now speaks on behalf of the 33rd. Coming across refugees being rounded up by loyalist 33rd soldiers, the team attempts to intervene peacefully. Nonetheless, the soldiers mistake Delta for CIA operatives and start a firefight. Contradicting his orders, Walker asserts that Konrad must be found, as he once saved Walker's life in Afghanistan.

Receiving a broadcast of CIA agent Daniels (Rick Pasqualone) being tortured and interrogated by the 33rd, the team chooses to interfere. Tracing the signal's origin, they discover that Daniels is already dead and the broadcast was a trap set for Gould (Chris Cox), another CIA agent. Gould arrives and helps them escape the 33rd's trap, but he is later captured and killed while assaulting a location called the Gate. Delta arrive at the Gate to continue his attack, finding it heavily guarded by the 33rd. The team employs a mortar loaded with white phosphorus to obliterate their opposition and advance further into the city. While walking through the aftermath, they realize too late that the strike accidentally killed 47 civilians, moved to the Gate for shelter by the 33rd. Walker vows revenge on the 33rd, claiming he was forced to fire the phosphorus.

Finding Konrad's executed command team and a small handheld radio, Walker begins to communicate with who he believes to be none other than Konrad, who challenges the morality of his actions throughout the story. Konrad forces Walker to choose between executing an Emirati survivor or a 33rd soldier, both of whom committed serious crimes. Subsequently, the team rescues CIA agent Jeff Riggs as he is leading a raid on the city's last water supply. Delta aids Riggs, told that stealing the water will cripple the 33rd's operations. Regardless, Riggs destroys the water supply and admits that he wanted to wipe out the remaining population of Dubai to prevent a larger war from breaking out. Riggs dies trapped under the burning debris. Spec Ops The Line Free Download Torrent.
