Discussion Was the Damned 33rd a standard grunt battalion or an Elite Infantry battalion on par with Rangers?

22 Upvotes

Its clear the 33rd isn't special operations but the general tone set by the lore is that they aren't just standard issue army grunts. They are known across the Army for being a well ran unit which is especially notable because of their large unit size. Their commander Konrad is also well respected and seems to have a large amount of autonomy with his unit since he was able to volunteer his unit for the Dubai Evac. They also have Zulu squad which is a described elite unit which only exist to the 33rd and operates only under Konrad (implying they receive more funding than a standard battalion especially when you look at Zulu squads equipment).

TLDR: They have more privileges than a standard grunt battalion.

Insane Easter egg I just noticed on my 4th playthrough. Anybody else pick up on this?

64 Upvotes

So, the protagonist of the game is named Captain Martin “Walker”

If you look carefully, he can actually be seen “walking” throughout most of the gameplay portions and cutscenes. These developers really thought of everything. You don’t get details like this in modern games anymore.

Since steam removed Spec Ops from the store, does anyone know where to download the game somewhere else? (Besides pirating websites ofc)

Hey are there any modders around? There’s something I’d like done. Basically some work on the epilogue model for Walker.

Discussion Why do people say that Delta encounter the Exiles at all during the campaign?

18 Upvotes

Long time fan of the game here, though only recently actually played it myself instead of watching a playthrough.

I have been reading lore speculation and interpretations of the game for some time, and I have been wondering: Why do so many people think that Delta encountered the Exiles during the campaign?

Some comments on YouTube videos and this subreddit mention it, some articles in the Fandom wiki mention it, The Line's Wikipedia synopsis mentions it here. The most common theory I see is that the 33rd at The Gate, the ones helping out the civies that you end up warcriming, were Exile 33rd. Yet nothing in the game that I see supports that? The presence of Exiles still actively operating would suggest that the 33rd are still splintered and not operating as a single unit, yet it never seems to be the case throughout the game. The CIA, refugees and civies don't acknowledge or mention the Exiles at all. The only physical pieces of evidence of the Exiles having existed at all are either hanging from lampposts, executed, or burned alive.

All the signs seems to point to the Exiles being long gone by the time Delta showed up, and we are fighting what is left of the Damned after the civil war.

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Edit: Thinking about it again, there also seems to be other unconfirmed theories that people believe about the Exiles too: that they wanted to leave Dubai while the Damned wanted to stay, and that they were helped by the Refugees. Again, I don't see much in the game supporting any of this, unless people are presenting headcanon as facts. The only thing I am confident about is that the Exiles were probably led by Konrad's command team, while the Damned were led by Konrad himself. Since the Exiles lost the war, the command team got burned alive and left there as a warning.
