StarCraft II: Nova Covert Ops - Mission Pack 1.2 : : Sudden Strike [No Commentary Gameplay]
2StarCraft II: Nova Covert Ops is a downloadable content (DLC) single-player mission pack to the military science fiction real-time strategy game StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty. Consisting of nine missions, it was released over the course of three installments as DLC, with three missions in each separably purchasable pack. The first mission pack was released March 29, 2016, the second mission pack released on August 2, 2016 and the final mission pack was released on November 22, 2016.The plot focuses on the aftermath of StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void, set sometime after its conclusion in 2508. The protagonist is the psionic operative Nova, a character first announced in 2002 as the lead character of the cancelled game StarCraft: Ghost. Nova's first appearance in a StarCraft game was as the central controllable unit of the StarCraft II mission "Ghost of a Chance", but was introduced officially to the lore in comics and novels. Previously visited themes and locations including those from the original StarCraft are included.
Gaming media commented that the mission packs were a proxy for the cancelled StarCraft: Ghost, though Blizzard denied that the unreleased story of the game factored a great deal into Covert Ops's storyline. The mission pack is centred around Nova, offering several strategies and customisation such as stealth and mobility, similar to what StarCraft: Ghost intended.
Gameplay
The gameplay of Nova Covert Ops retains the same general gameplay as the base game. Nova Covert Ops is focused around the hero unit of Nova, a similar to Kerrigan in StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm. As a hero-unit she is given unique abilities and improved characteristics, and is the focus of gameplay. However, a greater deal of exclusivity and choice is present in Nova's customisation, in comparison to the more diverse and cumulative paths of Kerrigan. Nova is given generally greater durability, damage and abilities than other units. New technology and weaponry are available for Nova and other units to unlock, although these are sometimes unlocked automatically or after enough missions. Equipment and research must be chosen over others in the same slot between missions. However, Nova cannot acquire levels like Kerrigan, and her abilities are determined by equipment choices. In only some areas of the mission pack is Nova the sole unit to be controlled. The mission pack places a greater emphasis on tactics but retains the base building and resource collection mechanics of StarCraft.In missions with base-building elements, Nova may die and respawn after enough time has passed. In missions without base elements however, Nova's death will cause the player's defeat. Missions, like those in previous StarCraft II campaigns, are meant to avoid the build and destroy design seen in the first StarCraft's missions. Stealth and platforming elements are present in missions.In line with the add-on nature of the mission pack, it is smaller in scale than the predecessor campaigns—the campaign is completely linear, and inter-mission content restricted to non-interactive cutscenes and static UI. Units are automatically unlocked, although upgrades to Nova and other units are contingent on discoveries during gameplay or completion of secondary objectives. However, some of the features from the previous campaigns of StarCraft II remain; more than the first StarCraft's inter-mission content being cutscenes and briefing rooms. Television broadcasts and other flavour text exists.
While the mission-pack is singleplayer it includes new-tilesets which have been directly used in the maps of StarCraft II's multiplayer competitive play.
Synopsis
Setting
The setting of Covert Ops takes place in a Dominion ruled by Valerian Mengsk, who seeks to rule in a manner less tyrannical than his late father, Arcturus. Mirroring the original StarCraft, dissent has begun to take hold. The Zerg have begun to attack again. After what is seen as ineffective responses by the Dominion government, people lend their support to the newly formed Defenders of Man group. In the aftermath of Legacy of the Void, the Tal'darim have shaken off their connection to the Xel'naga Amon, while still retaining their customs of strength and usurping their superiors. The mission pack takes place in a variety of settings, from isolated, obscure worlds, to the capital of Terran space, Korhal. Several systems and planets reoccur, such as the Tyrador system and Antiga Prime.
