Hidden & Dangerous 2
Hidden and Dangerous 2, like its predecessor, focuses on the British Special Air Service during World War II. It follows the same concept as the original first-person/third-person tactical shooter. The game's LS3D engine was used by the game Mafia. Gameplay elements such as the voice commands, plan or real-time map control, vehicle usage, equipment selection and first-person mechanics have been significantly improved over the original. The ability to take prisoners of war expanded the stealth options for the player, which include appropriating enemy uniforms. Mission types include espionage, sabotage, search and destroy, city liberation, prisoner liberation, obtaining enemy officers and documents, partisan aid and assassinations. Various locations include Norway, Libya, a Norwegian fjord, Burma, Austria, France, and Czechoslovakia. The Sabre Squadron expansion pack adds missions in France, Libya and Sicily. Some of the missions are modeled after real SAS missions. However, most of the game takes the liberty of recreating the historical time and place of SAS operations.[6] The missions are based on sandbox gameplay, where players are free to move around the map and pursue objectives, usually at their own discretion and in any order. A real-time strategy mechanic also allows players to control events for sequential tactical maneuvers or through real-time overhead commands.
