Cold War is the second level in Battlefield: Bad Company 2. The player's mission is to extract a HVI (High Value Induvidual) and/or his vehicle, which is a Russian Army truck. The level is called Cold War due to the cold environment that the player fights in, or the current conflict between the USSR and America. The mission takes place in Northern Russia, close to the Bering Strait.

Objectives

 * Find the HVI
 * Secure the HVI's vehicle
 * Escape to the RV point.

Walkthrough
The player starts out in a cutscene, as Haggard clears out a minefield. The squad then moves out, ambushing a Russian patrol. The squad then moves out onto a frozen lake. There, a cutscene shows a Russian executing the HVI, and the vehicle is transported away. The squad then proceeds to push through a town, killing enemies and lazing a Russian MBT for an Airstike, before reaching the vehicle. The squad then proceeds to the RV point, being chased by Quad-Bikes, then Vodniks, and finally a Mil Mi-28 Havoc Attack Helicopter. The player is told to take out the Mi-28, but will often die if he doesn't use the Grenade Launcher to take out the pilot. However, if the player is successful, a cutscene is launched, ending the level.
