In Spec Ops: War on Terrorism, the player takes control of a soldier who is fighting terrorists and must complete four unique missions. In these missions, the player is armed with three weapons; an M4A1 is the player’s primary weapon, which has 30 bullets per magazine and can be switched to by pressing the 1 key. The player’s secondary weapon is an M9 9mm pistol which holds 15 rounds per clip and can be switched to in a pinch. The third weapon in the game that the player has in their arsenal is an M40A1 sniper rifle which can only be used in the second mission, where the player will have to take wind into account in order to use it effectively.
