Let's Play Spec Ops: The Line | Chapter 5: The Battle | Saving Gould
1Welcome back to Spec Ops: The Line, a soft reboot of the Spec Ops franchise that changes up the formula, turning a series that was originally meant to be a tactical shooter into a narrative masterpiece. While the game still has remnants of its Tactical Shooter roots, the gameplay focuses far more on the story of Captain Martin Walker, who enters a war-torn Dubai in order to rescue a man he admires, John Konrad, after an evacuation mission involving the 33rd Mountain Battalion goes awry. What they find waiting for them in Dubai sets the stage for an explorative and less-mentioned side of warfare that is seldom seen or talked about.
Martin Walker and Company lick their wounds and dig their way out of the rubble in which the helicopter left them.
As they manage to find their way out of the structure, they are greeted by an RPG collapsing the building to their left and radio intercepts indicating that Gould had been captured.
Looking to pay their debt, they advance further, seeking to help the CIA agent and find themselves in the midst of what would appear to be evidence of a revolution.
A short firefight later, they find themselves looking at Gould being interrogated for information, using the resistance soldiers as hostages for execution. At that moment, the interrogator decides to switch tactics and start interrogating Gould. This was a moment of choice for Walker wherein he had to choose between saving the civilians or saving Gould. Walker chose the latter.
Adams led Walker around the side of the camp while Gould lay breathless in the sand, and together, they eliminated the few enemy patrols in their way in order to reach the captors. Once there, they neutralised the members of the Damned and freed the hostages.
By this point in time, the entire compound had been cleared, and they could openly check on Gould. Gould, however, was no more. Luckily, Walker found a map with a mark on it telling them where to go next. He surmised that the mark must be the plans that Gould was being interrogated about: The Gate that the CIA was planning to attack.
With their alliance becoming more fragile with time and tensions rising among them, they proceed ahead, looking to get to The Gate and find a way out to call for reinforcements.
Here is how Walker & Co. navigated the Battle:
