GAMEPLAY


Castle can greatly slow down the enemies' progression by blocking doorways or windows with barricades requiring a higher amount of destruction to go through. Since the barricades are bulletproof, they are especially useful to cover up windows that are highly expose to enemy fire.

These barricades become extremely powerful when used in coordination with Mute's Jamming Device, as they will prevent the enemies from using any breach charges to break it, however, the bulletproof barricades are no match for Sledge's Breaching hammer.

UNIQUE GADGET


Working with FBI SWAT, Campbell was in the middle of a hostage extraction when he became cornered in a small outbuilding. The dilapidated structure lacked a door. Utilizing what was available to him, Campbell fashioned a crude blockade with a discarded blanket and a staple gun he found in the shed. This allowed him to limit the line of sight to the building and remain concealed until backup took out the pursing hostiles. This experience inspired the creation of the UTP1-Universal Tactical Panel. A lightweight barricade that has been successfully utilized in FBI SWAT operations since its implementation in 2013.
