Conflict: Desert Storm II: Back to Bagdad Hints V (PS2)

Conflict: Desert Storm II: Back to Bagdad is a video game developed by Pivotal Games Ltd and published by SCi Games Inc. It was created for the PlayStation 2 console from Sony, the original Xbox from Microsoft, the PC and the Game Cube; it was released in 2003. It is classed as an action title with shooter elements, played from a third person perspective, with some of its key moments inspired by real history.

Conflict: Desert Storm II: Back to Bagdad is a squad based shooter that largely follows the gameplay mechanics of the first release in the series. You are in charge of a group of soldiers that are sent out to fight against the Iraqi forces that protect tyrant Saddam Hussein. You control a wide array of weapons that can be used to clear out the enemy and more vehicles are available to drive around. The graphics have been updated, with the bleak desert environments now presented in greater detail. The differences are more cosmetic; gameplay is mostly the same as in the previous title.

The game got rather mediocre reviews because it had not done anything to separate itself from the numerous squad based shooters that came out in the same period. If you are looking for a nice action title on which to spend a couple of hours, you can give it a try, but don't expect anything extraordinary from Conflict: Desert Storm II: Back to Bagdad.

GAMEPLAY HINTS

Besieged mission

In order to complete this mission, you must have snipers on top of the building in order to win that battle. Place a tank mine by a dirt hill-looking place then put down three claymores by the second hill. Even though the claymores will not destroy the tank, they will let you know that the tank is approaching and will slow it down slightly. When you finish that, have everyone run to the gate where the Delta team will C4 the door. Run in quickly and have everyone inside -- there is a heavy duty tank coming; so, run!

As soon as the door opens in the base, send Jones out the door. Go left to the big hole in the wall and place an anti-tank mine in the middle. Once this is done, retreat back to the base. When the tank arrives, it will be destroyed.
