Hidden & Dangerous 2 Preview

E3 2003 - First Look

The original Hidden & Dangerous took squad-based co-op action to new heights back when it was released, and its sequel looks to repeat that success. Hidden & Dangerous 2 combines elements from 1st and 3rd person based shooters and adds a co-operative element similar to SOCOM or Ghost Recon.

You can play the co-op campaign or do the same campaign with computer controlled allies. The preview build I saw featured some really impressive textures, and also had a dynamic 3D map camera, with which you could scope out your enemies position and watch them for patterns. The game also promises to have use of vehicles and some other interesting gameplay elements.

Hidden & Dangerous 2 comes out this October, so start polishing your team skills.
