SAS Biography
Burns is under the command of Sergeant Wallcroft in the 22nd SAS Regiment. The mission is to track down Vladimir Makarov’s inner circle in London. They silently secure a warehouse that is believed to contain an unknown chemical substance. After securing the warehouse, they move into open attack.
They fight their way to a dock and reach a conspicuous truck there, but they cannot find anything in it. The terrorists retreat to a subway station, and Burns and the others pursue them in pickup trucks. Griffen dies, and only Burns and Wallcroft survive. They meet another SAS squad and try to stop another truck, but without success. The trucks explode and unleash a chemical poison cloud in the city.
Trivia
• If you skip the ”offensive” content or shoot the truck too many times, it explodes and kills Burns and everyone present, so it is possible to kill him.
Heroes (Call of Duty)
The Call of Duty series has existed since 2003 and in addition to various spin-offs, including for the handheld systems Nintendo DS and Sony PSP, 14 major titles of the series have now been released. Ever since the first part of the series, great emphasis has been placed on the online multiplayer mode in addition to the single-player campaign, which is also reflected in the development of the shooter series. Since the first Call of Duty, World at War, which was developed exclusively by Treyarch, each part also included cooperative challenges that you could play together with friends. The latest installment, Call of Duty: World War II, also features an extended multiplayer mode that puts you and your friends in the combat zones and famous battles of World War II. Using the divisions, you’ll be able to choose between the deadly sniper and the brute armored division and support your comrades in battle. In addition, World War II also has a zombie mode “Nazi Zombies”, as in its predecessor Call of Duty: Black Ops. Face the monsters of the Third Reich and win glory and honor.
