Sniper Elite V2

I pre-ordered it. Been playing single player and co-op on expert difficulty. I can say, that if you play it this way, it feels like a real sniping/sneaking game. Bullet drop and sway, no assisted aiming, die in one burst from a mp40, or 2 hits from enemy sniper, etc...

The gameplay is enjoyable, the bullet cam is satisfying (the first couple dozen times, or when you get a headshot/nutshot or shoot the grenade on thier belt), and the stealth actually feels like stealth.

The bad: Very linear gameplay. Cant open doors, the important shots cant be taken from multiple positions, and the spacebar (vault over things) hates you. Sometimes ill be standing 5 feet from and objective and there will be a 3 foot wall in my way. Instead of simply jumping over it, I have to side track thru 10 blown out buildings, with only one viable route, to reach it. Enemy snipers seem to only appear on top of the most obvious buildings, once youve come close enough for them to spawn and geta shot off, despite having already scoped out everything with binoculars.

Im looking forward to ghost warrior sniper (something like that)


8/10. Because its still satisfying to get a xray kill cam skull shot on a prone sniper 1500+ meters away.

Holy month-old irrelevant thread bump!
