Sneak Peak: Salonika image - Operation Cinema: Beyond Modern Warfare for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
From the Middle eastern deserts to the Balkan mountains, the action continues.3 years after the events in CoD4, Al Asad is back and he is not alone. He has gathered all of his forces and has managed to prove to the islam world that he is a holy person ( those who dont believe him get shot ). Now his armies are moving forward in an almost blitzkrieg tactic, conquering much of eastern Europe. Within 3 months he is at the Russian border and is preparing the invasion. Kremil decides to send a special Spetsnaz team to Rousse ( where Asad is expecting his troops ). Your job is to parachute into the city and kill Al Asad once and for all. Too bad all hell broke lose after you landed, the Bulgarians are rebeling in the city, the romanians are rushing to reinforce, and a massive arab army is coming to help the city garrison. Not to mention your squad leader was killed in the landing, your helicopters are destroyed and you have no contact with HQ. Just another day at the office aye?
Well once again it is the 4th of july, Operation Cinema's 3rd year birthday, so I decided to give some footage of two future missions ( the current one is still in development dont worry ).
Story wise: this is how the arab invasion of the Balkan peninsula began (more details in summary on main page), greatly inspired by D-Day, the first part follows an arab airbourne soldier ( player ) as he and his squad paradrop from a plane right into Salonika, Greece. Their mission: destroy several navy guns and kill the power to the city to lessen its defense. Im considering adding a 'capture airfield and destroy enemy planes' objective as well.
The player start as member of a airborn unit, right?
Yes. This is just before the player jumps off the plane (its going to be tricky, but I will pull it off somehow).
Probably it couldn't be helpful, but in the first CoD (2003) the first mission start with a parachute launch on Sainte-Mère-Église (in fact the charcter spawn in the higher point of the map, not in a plane). Try to check if the source code could be useble
Thing is, in COD1 they had an animated model of a parachute ingame ( which they only used for that one mission ), then in United Offensive they had a part where the player activated the parachute (granted it looked horrible but still). What Im tring to say is that without a parachute model Im going to have to do something out of the box.
hmm...I think they should be wearing helmets :P
Green rags make them stand out more:)
omg you got me all excited for this now :D
i not like an arab player if he is invading us now
C'mon... It's just a game :-D
