 Commandos: The Fortress - Friday Night Special (6.29.2001)


Anton: Ok... today we have something different for you. It's not really Commandos 2, but it is very, very close! Today we have a special preview of the Commandos 2 (CBCOD) MOD made by our very own ModExpert. So sit back, and read this exciting preview!

ModExpert: For those who don't know I am working on a mod to modify Commandos Beyond the Call of Duty into Commandos 2. Why? Well, everyone can't wait anymore for Commandos 2, because it's always delayed. So that gave me an idea to make my own Commandos 2.

First, let me explain why my mod is so special. I made 4 special missions which were inspired by the upcoming Commandos 2. The first mission is the tutorial. In that tutorial you can play with all of the Commandos. Yes, all 6 Commandos are in the mission but they are sitting inside a house. Ex: If I want to play with all six commandos I can do that, or maybe I only want to play with Tiny... I can do that also. The tutorial is made in a way so the mission can be played with any number of Commandos.

 

The second mission takes place in the training camp. But this is not a tutorial mission!!This is a real situation! I was inspired by the words that Gonzo Suarez once said..."You must make a plan before attacking or else you fail" (or something like that). So in the second and in the fourth mission, you must come up with a plan before attacking. Another thing is that in those missions you will need all of the commandos to complete them! No Commando is useless... it is impossible to complete the mission only with Tiny, or Fins. The fourth mission has a special feature. Its a night mission! Yes, a night mission in Commandos Beyond the Call of Duty!

The night mission isn't the only new feature I have included in my mod. For all you WWII fans and the fans of the Driver (Tread), I have given him the following weapons:

- The German Sub-Machine Gun called MP38. This weapon has almost the same characteristics as Tread's Sub-Machine Gun. The Spy can also use it if he takes the soldier uniform with a rank of +2.
- The Cross Bow, a silenced and deadly weapon. Only Tread can use it. Same range as the Harpoon but it only has five shots.

Also to make this mod look more like Commandos 2, I have made a special music add-on for it. This music has been taken from the Commandos 2 Soundtrack and put into the mod.

Another feature that I have put into the game are three new disguises for the Spy and a new type of a soldier. What I mean by a new type of soldier is that that soldier has a new rank. EX: If the spy wears the normal soldier uniform, the sergeant can recognize the Spy... That's because the uniform has +1 in ranking. The lowest rank soldiers are those who have a rifle. They can be easily spotted by the soldiers of a higher rank (+2) who carry the MP38. The sergeant with a rank +3 can spot all of the soldiers below his rank. Then comes the Officer with a rank of +4 and the Gestapo with a rank of +5. In conclusion, be very careful what rank uniform you are wearing! If you wear the +3 rank uniform you can't be spotted by the soldiers lower than your rank, but you can be spotted by the enemy who is higher than your rank!

  


  





The third mission its the original Pow Camp mission made by Pyro Studios. I fixed many bugs that it had. This night mission was supposed to be in the final release of Commandos Beyond the Call of Duty, but it was converted to a day time mission, since it had so many problems.

 




Ok, now you can download our MOD! This is LITE version, which will require Commandos Beyond the Call of Duty to work properly. Please click on the link below to download. The file is 10.5Mb.
