As for the most memorable part of Black Hawk Down and similar titles, what really impressed me was how big and open the maps were. It was the first game where I felt like I was truly interacting with the map and other players — engaging them from long distances and utilizing different tactics. The map was designed with enough, let's say, scope for me to really explore all sorts of ideas and gameplay freedom. That’s something we want to carry forward and improve in our g

While assault rifles are fit for all of the maps, you won't have a great time sniping in Space City and Brakkesh. Similarly, shotguns and SMGs will be miserable in Layali Grove unless you bunker down in one of the buildi

...Which you then use to go out again, to get more loot, to buy more gear. You get the idea. It's moderately insane behavior, but what makes it fun is that failing to extract means all that effort goes out of the win

In terms of level design and world-building, we always work very hard to make sure we’re following a tangible, futuristic philosophy and style. The levels take place in the year 2035, which isn’t too far off from where we are now. We want players to feel that everything they see in the game is either something that could realistically exist in the near future or something that totally makes sense 10 years from

Layali Grove is the game's biggest map, offering the most diverse tactical approaches. The map has numerous compounds overlooked by plentiful vantage points, and its sheer size lets you pick more creative routes around or through fig

Delta Force Tactics Force does the mighty carbine justice, highlighting the good handling, firepower, and modularity that have made it so popular. The M4A1 is also one of the starter weapons in Operations mode , and it is quite affordable next to some other boomsti

We want to combine the best parts of both. We want players to experience competitiveness and fluency in movement and combat while also having the strategic depth to slow down, observe, gather information, and plan their approach. When it comes to execution, that’s when the pace will pick up — that’s when you’ll feel the adrenaline rush and the fast-trading intensity. It’s about finding the right balance between fun, fluidity, competitiveness, and strat

That's doubly true if you find other players, take their gear, and extract with it . Enemy player equipment will almost always be of higher quality and complexity than what the AI is using, and even if all you do is sell it when you get back to the Black Site, you'll have made out like a bandit either

Much like Escape from Tarkov, you can upgrade your base of operations in Delta Force, a safe zone called the Black Site. Upgrading various stations not only grants small but significant buffs to your character, but four of the Black Site modules open up opportunities for crafting items that allow you to easily double your investm

Some of the ways to make money in Delta Force sound more than self-explanatory, but some other methods aren't quite as obvious, from playing the market to crafting, daily, weekly, and seasonal events, quests, and m

What you take out of a raid also matters. In most cases, you want to extract with as many blue or higher-rarity items as possible . These tend to sell for about 10,000-15,000 per square, which they take up in your inventory, and while that's not a huge profit on a per-unit basis, it does add up quic

There's no point denying that today, assault rifles are divided between the M4A1 and the rest . Ever since its introduction in the 1990s, most new projects to emerge range from having a lot of inspiration to being outright modifications like the HK

The Assault version of the ACOG rocks at medium range engagements, and this build gives you plenty of stability and decent accuracy so you can lay down precise fire from far out . If you do get up close and personal though, the canted red dot has your b

A: We actually have a lot of examples where player feedback has impacted our design direction. For instance, last year, we had a patch where we felt that the character animations and movements weren’t realistic or convincing enough. They were also a little too fast, which didn’t give players enough time to think and strategize their movements. So, we introduced slower animations and movements for the characters, making them move more naturally in the game. We thought it was really awesome and cool. However, after we shipped that update, we received a lot of feedback from players saying that the characters didn’t feel as responsive as they had hoped or were used

And while more difficult activities yield better rewards, you have to risk more to get it out. Your enemies, both AI and human, will be better equipped than in Easy mode, but so should you be, meaning everyone is putting something on the l

The same is true of concrete trucks scattered about each map. Activate them with the button on their rear end, and they'll spit out between one and three pieces of loot . Don't expect a red every time, but you'd be surprised by how much good stuff you can get from t
