| This is the next evolution so to speak. No health bar at all. Your screen flashes red, you grunt in pain. The more you're hurt, the redder your screen and the more your aim gets thrown off. Your 'health' regens back up to full in seconds, much quicker than Halo's shields. I don't consider it a health mechanic so much as a warning.
WARNING: You are getting SHOT AT, GET THE FUCK BACK IN COVER.
If you ignore the warning you will most likely be seeing those god damn stale quotes you've been reading since CoD1. More than enough punishment right there.
The best mission is "Retreat? We're advancing in the other direction!" This game is great at ramping up the intensity to near panic levels as wave after wave of germans force you back, and just as your on your last leg, all your friends are dead, and you're on your last clip, the calvary arrives and saves the day. |
