Kim Evans, Eddie Guerra, and of course, Ben McCall. Write down the names because they are the three protagonists of The Call of Juarez Cartel, a title that despite the change of atmosphere retains some identity of the combination of far-western titles that preceded them. For example? His protagonists.

Veteran Ben McCall is the most striking fact is a descendant of the classic Ray McCall already met at previous deliveries, and shares with its ancestor the solemnity and religious faith, which leads him to recite his disconcerting taste for appointments bible full shooting. However, the FBI agent Kim Evans , of obvious inspiration to actress Halle Berry and DEA agent Eddie Guerra accompanying him also enjoy enormous importance in this action film tribute to the B Series is The Cartel.

For the moment, apart from the characters, Techland still does not talk much about the plot , and has provided is a pair of strokes in this regard. The first is that the incidents described the game is triggered by an explosion at a government building, attack directly linked to a drug cartel Mexican cause heterogeneous intervention team I was part. The second feature of the game in their script is that Techland is looking for an adult rating for the launch, which will result in abundant profanity, blatant violence and it seems also important dose of sex.

What is a fact that the title will cherish tremendous variety between their positions. So much so, that during the presentation of the game Techland guys have said that on one level of the Cartel are more assets than all of, for example, Bound in Blood. For example, in the stage displayed the game goes from a nightclub to a car parking to lead to a formidable vehicle chase, all on one level.

As part of the prosecution power , you can see precisely how these mechanisms of cooperation in that complement the skills of the players. How? For example its leaders have made a pile of players the vehicle, while the other two peer through the windows to fire on the car of the villains we pursue.

But what will trigger the fun of this FPS is the cooperative for three concurrent users , type of joint action with other friends in which each of the three will play one of the protagonists to overcome the campaign. The story mode will obviously be the same, but it seems that game mechanics are adapted so interesting to the possibility of playing together. Particularly emphasizes the mechanics of slow motion allows us to cooperate with our friends to come and clean a room of enemies.

The combat is also one of the biggest stars of the game, especially with regard to offering new alternatives for action to a shooter like this. At this time, and as confirmed from Techland, all that relates to the close-range combat with tips is a “prototype”, but the mere fact of their inclusion and optimism infused with the possibilities that will bring the game.
