A wide array of location types are included, featuring mountains, small towns, urban environments, and a large hydro-electric dam just north of the U.S.-Mexico border.

Gameplay (Xbox 360 and PS3 versions)

CrossCom Full Screen View

The gameplay is similar to the first GRAW, although some new features have been added to improve gameplay. One significant change is the addition of the improved cross-com system, a battlefield information interlink between all friendly units, that now allows a full screen view of what any unit is seeing. This makes the direction of friendly units much more accurate and effective. The squad A.I. is improved, with less problems occurring than in the last GRAW. Units will actively seek cover and descriptively call out targets (i.e. "behind the red car", or "under the green roof") Image File history File links Size of this preview: 800 × 449 pixel Image in higher resolution (1100 × 618 pixel, file size: 187 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg) http://www. ...

Plot

Xbox 360 & PS3

The game begins in Ciudad Juárez a day after the events of the first GRAW, where rebel activity has caused civil unrest throughout Mexico. Despite the death of Carlos Ontiveros in the first game, the insurgency has continued under the leadership of one de la Barria, even spreading into other Latin American states, including Panama, where rebel forces have effectively shut down the Panama Canal. The Ghosts are sent to Mexico by General Keating to investigate claims that the rebels are in possession of a dirty bomb, as well as prevent the rebellion from directly assaulting US soil. Immediately after arriving in Mexico, the Ghosts are put to work destroying a sizeable rebel position guarded by two large artillery pieces, enabling additional American forces to reach the main battle-zone unmolested. Shortly thereafter, Mitchell aids in an aerial attack against a rebel supply base from Blackhawk 5, annihilating two enemy weapons convoys in the process. The Ghosts also learn that de la Barria has obtained old Ukrainian Red Star IV nuclear warheads. Combined with several medium-range, Pakistani-built Kashmira-II missiles stolen from cargo ships in the Canal, the rebel now possess the ability to destroy any major city in the United States. Ciudad Juárez, or simply Juárez, is a city in the Mexican state of Chihuahua formerly known as El Paso del Norte. ... The term dirty bomb is primarily used to refer to a radiological dispersal device (RDD), a radiological weapon which combines radioactive material with conventional explosives. ...

With the WMD threat confirmed, the Ghosts travel to Ciudad Juárez to search for the nukes, and link up with loyalist Mexican Army troopers led by Colonel Jimenez. Aided by Mexican armoured vehicles and American fighters, the Ghosts and their allies clear out much of the rebel presence from the city, neutralizing several checkpoints before crushing a rebel stronghold in the local marketplace. As the Mexican troops advance to secure the marketplace, however, an underground explosion rips through the district, killing the loyalist vanguard and flooding the area with deadly radiation. Realizing that the market held one of the missing Red Star IV's and containment was lost, Keating orders a retreat. After linking back up with Jimenez and his soldiers, intelligence arrives suggesting that a local journalist with inside access to the rebel leadership knows the location of the remaining two nukes, and is willing to come forward and assist the Americans. Working with Jimenez's most elite troopers, the Ghosts destroy a series of anti-aircraft batteries and hold off a devastating rebel counterattack, enabling the journalist to be extracted safely, and the information she holds preserved. With all other assets devoted to protecting the reporter, Mitchell and his squad link up with Blackhawk 5 in front of a local church for evac.

Disaster strikes when Blackhawk 5 is crippled by enemy RPG fire and brought down, and the Ghosts, now cut off from rescue, are forced to defend themselves against a group of heavily-armed and highly-trained mercenaries assisting the rebels. Barely escaping the immediate warzone via Humvee, the vehicle is hunted down and destroyed by rebel Havoc helicopter, killing both the driver, PFC Provenanzo, and incapacitating the Ghost squad. The only survivor of the wreck, Mitchell manages to escape aboard Blackhawk 9 with the aid of a friendly Mexican soldier, before providing air support for the American salvage convoy sent to recover Blackhawk 5. Having captured both Lieutenant Rosen (Mitchell's friend and field runner) along with the remains of the helicopter, the rebels attempt to use this victory as a propaganda tool. Unfortunately for the rebels, the Ghosts shut down their attempts at media manipulation by destroying the Blackhawk wreckage (removing the evidence of the American loss), before storming a heavily-defended, mercenary-controlled hacienda to rescue Lieutenant Rosen, weathering a powerful reprisal from mercenary reinforcements before they can be extracted. Mercenary (disambiguation). ... The Mil Mi-28 (NATO reporting name Havoc) is a Russian tandem two-seat anti-armour and attack helicopter. ...

With the intelligence gathered from both the Mexican journalist and Lieutenant Rosen, the Americans finally have the location of the last two nukes, back in Ciudad Juárez. Destroying additional enemy anti-air defences around the site, Mitchell leads one team of Ghosts to secure the exterior of the target building while a second unit of Ghosts, lead by Derrick Parker, assaults the site directly. As Mitchell and his team bravely battles off a strong force of rebels, Bravo Team secures one of the nuclear weapons, but are stymied by de la Barria, who escapes with the last warhead. Fighting through a densely-packed urban warzone, often faced with rebel APC's, machine-gun nests and anti-tank units along with the mercenaries, the Ghosts eventually punch through the enemy lines and kill de la Barria, removing the rebel leadership...but do not find the last nuke. Oblivious to the defeat of their rebel employers, the mercenaries have taken the last nuke and intend on using it against the United States in a final act of revenge.

US intelligence finds out that the mercenaries plan to take the nukes to El Paso, Texas, in order to destroy a large dam and the city around it. The dam turns out to be on top of a major American military installation where the mercenaries were successfully hacking the US anti-ballistic missile defense grid, leaving the country vulnerable to nuclear attack. Discovering that the nukes are not, in fact, in El Paso, the Ghosts return to Ciudad Juárez, fighting through the last, desperate enemy forces to discover the last warhead has been armed and installed in one of the Khasmira-II missiles. Mitchell and his team end up pinned down on a balcony overlooking the launch site. With little time to spare, and President Ballentine unwilling to destroy the entire city in order to neutralize the threat, the Americans try to use an EMP(Electro-Magnetic-Pulse) missile fired by air support to disable the launchers. However, Mitchell and his team are still in range of the blast, and General Keating hesitates on authorizing air support with friendly soldiers in the blast area. Keating tells Mitchell "Son, I can't ask you to do this," but Mitchell says "Sir, it's why you sent me here, you know this is the only way." An American fighter fires the EMP missile, eliminating the threat but catching the Ghosts directly in the blast. The view cuts to Mitchell falling back by the explosion, with faint voices from Mitchell's crosscom. Lieutenant Rosen's Blackhawk can be seen from this view, and while Keating and Rosen plead with him to stay alive, President Ballantine thanks him for saving the nation. Rosen's chopper hovers over Mitchell, Rosen appears on the crosscom saying "Soldier, you're going home" and the game then cuts to the credits. It is unknown whether Mitchell and the other Ghosts survived. This article needs cleanup. ... The term electromagnetic pulse (EMP) has the following meanings: electromagnetic radiation from an explosion (especially a nuclear explosion) or an intensely fluctuating magnetic field caused by Compton-recoil electrons and photoelectrons from photons scattered in the materials of the electronic or explosive device or in a surrounding medium. ...

Multiplayer

Unlike the first GRAW, players in the online multiplayer mode can be "downed", or critically injured, instead of killed. This gives teammates the opportunity to heal a downed teammate and prevent the other team from getting the point, although downed players can be shot and killed by players from the opposing team before they are healed. The mechanics in the multiplayer mode have also been improved, and characters can now "slide" into a crouched position while running, where in the first GRAW this was only available in the single player mode. The ability to use cover like in the singleplayer mode has still not been added to the multiplayer mode. In multiplayer the player can choose from four weapon classes, including Rifleman, Grenadier, Automatic Rifleman, and Marksman. Choosing the rifleman class makes the player more proficient with rifles, the automatic rifleman more proficient with machine guns, and so on. Another new feature added to multiplayer was full-screen cross-com. As in singleplayer mode, the player can hold down the right button and bring up the fullscreen view. This can be used to view friendly players' views as well as the Drone, but cannot be used to give commands or manually fly the drone.

Team Selection

In this addition, the player can select each NPC to bring along for each mission rather than choosing a preselected team, as in Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter. Choosing the correct teammates plays an important role as certain teammates perform better on certain missions (e.g., choosing the anti-tank gunner to combat enemy armored vehicles). This decision is aided by an Intel screen that gives your objective and a rough estimation of the enemies your team will face. Each time a new mission is started or the player regroups with the command vehicles over the course of the mission, the player will receive new Intel and can choose new teammates and rearm. Another feature is that the Riflemen have a different Assault Rifle each.

Unit Descriptions

Rifleman - At least one rifleman is present in any team. They are versatile soldiers, effective against enemy infantry and armed with scoped assault rifles. For other uses, see Rifleman (disambiguation). ...

(Machine) Gunner - Better armoured soldier, armed with a light machine gun, capable of pinning down enemy forces and destroying light/civilian vehicles (which may provide cover for enemies). They are inaccurate at long range but are able to prevent enemy troop movement in a wide section of the battle zone they are covering.

Grenadier - Grenadiers are armed with underbarrel grenade launchers. This enables them to quickly destroy light armoured/civilian vehicles and deal with enemies behind cover, or in groups. A Grenadier (French for Grenademan) was originally a specialized assault soldier for siege operations, first established as a distinct role in the mid to late 17th century. ...

Medic - The medic is the only team member able to heal Captain Mitchell, and having him in your team allows you to carry 3 additional medkits, which is often vital. The rest of the team are trained to heal an unconscious teammate to "red" (injured) health, but only the medic can fully heal them. This is particularly useful before a major firefight. The medic is only armed with a submachinegun, and therefore is ineffective in medium to long range contacts. The Medic was cut from the PC version of the game. 68W (often pronounced as 6 8 Whiskey using the phonetic alphabet) is the Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) for the United States Armys healthcare specialist, also known as the combat medic. ...

Marksman - The marksman is capable of killing enemies at extreme range or behind cover with a sniper rifle, and is useful in recon missions. However, she is not the best choice in large scale fights. A US Marine marksman. ...

Anti-tank Gunner - The anti-tank gunner is armed with a lethal Rocket launcher, and is vital for defending the team from heavy armor (main battle tanks, helicopter gunships). He can deliver massive power over long range, however it is usually best to use your support units in this role, since the anti-tank gunner has no other use. A medic or additional rifleman is usually more popular.

Note: Through choosing his weapon, the team leader can perform any of these roles himself, but is always a medic as well. However Captain Mitchell cannot carry additional Medikits or heal other team mates to 100% Health. However in the PC version of the game nobody is capable of healing.

Support Units

Support Units

AH-64 Apache Helicopter Gunship - The AH-64 Apache is by far the most effective support unit. Its 30 mm gun and 2.75" rockets are capable of annihilating any enemy, however it should try to avoid enemy anti-tank gunners. Image File history File links Size of this preview: 800 × 449 pixelsFull resolution (1100 × 618 pixel, file size: 324 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg) http://image. ... Image File history File links Size of this preview: 800 × 449 pixelsFull resolution (1100 × 618 pixel, file size: 324 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg) http://image. ... The AH-64 Apache is the United States Armys principal attack helicopter, and is the successor to the AH-1 Cobra. ...

AH-6 "Little Bird" Gunship - The Little Bird is similar in capability to the Apache, however it is far more fragile and should be used with support to protect it from RPGs or machine gun fire. The Hughes Helicopters OH-6A Cayuse (nicknamed Loach) is a single-engine light helicopter with a four-bladed main rotor used for personnel transport, escort and attack missions, and observation. ...

F-15E Strike Eagle - The F-15 fighter jet delivers enough power to destroy just about anything. There is a delay between uses, the pilot notifies the player when he is standing by. The F-15 is the only support available in gunride missions. The F-15E Strike Eagle is a modern United States all-weather strike fighter, designed for long-range interdiction of enemy ground targets deep behind enemy lines. ...

Sikorsky Cypher UAV - The UAV is able to scan an area and feed intel directly to Captain Mitchell's HUD. It is vital in missions where little support is available, and allows the Ghosts the advantage of being able to plan an attack in detail before going in. The UAV can scan an area (at low altitude) for around 5 seconds before being spotted and shot down, so users should be cautious. The UAV is able to monitor units within its target radius at high altitude, so when positioned over a battle zone it can stop enemies from disappearing from view. The Cypher is a type of unmanned aerial vehicle developed by Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation. ...

M1A2 Abrams Main Battle Tank - This tank is almost invincible. The Ghosts need only to deal with enemy RPGs and cover behind it and it can send the enemy running. The Abrams can deal with all enemy ground vehicles and destroy cover. Enemies are forced to remote positions, where riflemen and snipers can deal with them without being at risk of being pinned down. The Abrams must follow a preset route. The M1 Abrams main battle tank is the principal combat tank of the United States Army, the United States Marine Corps and the Australian Army, with three main versions being deployed starting in 1980: the M1, M1A1, and M1A2. ...

Stryker APC - The APC is armored enough to protect those covering behind it from small arms fire. It is armed with a regular shell gun, similar to a tank, and a heavy machine gun on the top. The gunner can potentially be killed, effectively limiting its ability. The APC requires support from the Ghosts to avoid being surrounded by gunners or grenadiers, and is limited to moving along a specific route. For other uses, see Stryker (disambiguation). ...

UH-60 Black Hawk - The Blackhawk, which is used to transport the Ghosts between missions and carries re-enforcements and equipment, has an M134 heavy machine gun mounted on the side, allowing Captain Mitchell to defend the aircraft and clear insertion areas. The UH-60 is manned by a pilot and co-pilot, and usually a logistics support officer to brief the team. It has been suggested that Sikorsky S-70 be merged into this article or section. ... A minigun is a fully-automatic multi-barreled machine gun with a high rate of fire, employing Gatling style rotating barrels to prevent overheating. ...

Humvee - The Humvee can transport the team between missions in relative safety, but carries no equipment etc and is unable to safely enter battles. Humvees with gunners sometimes escort the Ghost Truck to rally points. This article refers to the Military HMMWV, not the civilian Hummer sold by General Motors The M998 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV or Humvee) is a military 4WD motor vehicle created by AM General. ...

Infantry - Additional Ghost units and Mexican loyalists can be controlled in some missions, the same as your main team. They are always a pair of riflemen, and allow you to vary your main team more by providing additional firepower that makes up for the specialists' weaknesses. Having additional infantry allows flanking maneuvers. It is unknown how when commanding Mexican loyalists the full-screen cross-com can still be used despite the lack of cross-com equipment on the soldiers. Infantry of the Royal Irish Rifles during the Battle of the Somme in World War I. Infantry are soldiers who fight primarily on foot with small arms in organized military units, though they may be transported to the battlefield by horses, ships, automobiles, skis, bicycles, or other means. ...

MULE - The MULE delivers equipment and medkits, which is vital for a soldier working alone. They allow the team leader to change his role and heal himself in battle. Mules are not well armored, and should follow at a safe distance. They can be driven in command-full-view, but this is generally unnecessary. The MULE can also be used as makeshift cover in an emergency. Another less seen use of the MULE is to toss a satchel charge into the front grating of the MULE essentially making a mobile satchel charge, which can be used at times scrificeing the MULE to destroy a group of soldiers or a troop transport. Note that filling your ammo will cause any primed satchel charge to disappear. The Multifunction Utility/Logistics and Equipment (MULE) vehicle is an autonomous ground vehicle developed by Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control for the United States Armys Future Combat Systems program. ...

Trivia

Trivia sections are discouraged under Wikipedia guidelines. The article could be improved by integrating or removing these items. (May 2007)

• Third Echelon from Splinter Cell is mentioned by name during Act Three. This shows again how Ghost Recon and Splinter Cell may exist within the same universe, the first time being the sinking of the USS Clarence E. Walsh in both Ghost Recon 2 and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. Also, the news broadcasts shown between missions are by World News Media. Broadcasts by the same station are seen in the Splinter Cell games
• The player can obtain special head gear from Rainbow Six: Vegas and Splinter Cell: Double Agent by having saved profiles from the games on your hard drive or memory card. The player can gain access to these head pieces in the multiplayer character customization area.
• In the multiplayer map Lagoon, an area similar to the island map named Rocky Cove from the first GRAW can be seen in the distance. Similarities include the raised cliff like area in the center with rocky beaches to the sides. In addition the Lagoon map's coast can now be seen from the new Rocky Cove which is featured as part of map pack 2.
• Derrick Parker and KC Kirkland were a grenadier and a gunner respectively in GRAW, but in GRAW 2 they're both riflemen.
• Some of the Ghosts from GRAW such as Richard Allen and Annibale Cruz did not return in GRAW 2, but it can be assumed that Derrick Parker's Bravo Team was made primarily by the other Ghosts who aren't available to Cpt. Mitchell's team in GRAW 2.
• The US Soldiers in GRAW 2 feature less-advanced technology than the Ghosts. They are equipped with modified MultiCam, Interceptor OTV's, though they carry Crye Precision MR-C Carbines. If one compares them with the original GRAW, they are seen with the same uniform as the Ghost team in GRAW.
• News feeds occasionally use live-action scenes.
