More about Standoff 2
The game was released on the market a year after the company was founded. The product quickly gained recognition among users. And it's no wonder, because Standoff offers every user exciting adventures, an interesting storyline, multiple game modes, and wide possibilities.
The game involves 2 teams - assault squad and terrorists. Each of them must complete certain missions, including eliminating players from the other team.
Functionality and Features
Standoff 2 is built similarly to Counter-Strike: GO. The developers took a lot from the well-known project. And they added their own unique features, which fans of Counter Strike were missing.
The confrontation lasts for 10 minutes. Due to this limitation, both beginners and more advanced users will enjoy the game.
The creators have implemented several game modes in the product to diversify the gameplay:
- Team Deathmatch is the standard mode, with a total duration limit of 10 minutes. The winning team is considered the one that eliminates enemies first. Personal achievements of each player are evaluated during the battle, and statistics are collected.
- Bomb Defusal is a mode taken from Counter-Strike. The terrorist team must set up an explosive device, while the opposing team must defuse the bomb. This mode is suitable when playing with a group of friends who understand each other's actions. The round lasts for 10 minutes, and there are 15 rounds in a match.
- Arms Race is a mode where the goal is to improve the combat potential of players. The weapon arsenal is upgraded when a player eliminates a certain number of enemies. For example, if a player kills 2 enemies, they will use an assault rifle instead of a regular pistol. The game ends when a player kills an enemy armed with firearms using a knife. The game duration is 10 minutes.
The developer company constantly holds various contests and gatherings among the players. During these events, future modes are tested, which may be included in the game later.
So, the first-person shooter Standoff 2 is an excellent choice for gamers on personal computers with Windows OS. The game will appeal to those who crave adrenaline and want to participate in shootouts. Just like in Counter-Strike, there will be no time to get bored, and you can spend several hours in front of the monitor.
