Call of Duty 2: Big Red One

Call of Duty 2: Big Red One is a first-person shooter that has a single-player story mode and a multiplayer mode. The player assumes the role of a soldier protagonist in certain missions during World War II, from the perspective of the American 1st Infantry Division. The player can crouch and lie down and is able to climb low walls and other obstacles. He can carry two firearms, which he can interchange with weapons left on the battlefield, and carry both fragmentation and smoke grenades. The iron sights of a weapon can be used to aim more accurately. A compass on the heads-up display (HUD) shows both allies and enemies and target markers to indicate places the player must reach, areas he must defend, or enemy cannons or tanks he must take out with explosives. In some locations, weapons such as machine guns and anti-aircraft guns are also available to eliminate the enemy troops. In some missions, the player also takes control of a tank. It is also important for reconnaissance, although most of the game takes place in personal close combat situations, which reduces the importance of this tactic.
