The biggest for me was being able to play through the main campaign with a friend as you can collectively clear an entire army in a matter of seconds if you time your shots correctly.Īlong with this, there are a number of other multiplayer options to have a look at: Kill Tally, Bombing Run and Overwatch. There are also multiplayer options available in Sniper Elite V2. I’ll be honest, it never worked out too well for me. With all of this said, if sniping isn’t your forte, you could just whip out the old Thompson and take a running, bullet ridden jump straight into an early grave by playing a more run and gun type approach. You get to see the bullet twist and fly through the air, whizzing past the ears of the soldiers you are aiming past and an x-ray view of the bullet destroying the muscle and bone in the face of the opponent sniper on the adjacent rooftop you’ve just headshotted. If you pull of an extreme shot, you’ll be treated to a slow-motion x-ray killcam. There’s nothing close to the feeling of taking an enemy out with a clean headshot from 3/4 mile away but the guys over at Rebellion have managed it. Well, you’d be right on the money there then. With the sniper rifle being the key weapon in this game, you’d expect a lot of chances to use it and the satisfaction from it. A classic array of World War II weaponry. I haven’t gone into detail about the weapons themselves because they change a few times throughout the game as you find bigger and better ones, but to name a few that show their barrel: The M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle, The M1A1 Thompson Machine Gun & The Colt M1911 handgun. These include your trusty sniper rifle (although you’ll ditch it at the first sign of an upgrade), a handgun, a machine gun, grenades, trip mines, pressure plates and a whole pile of rocks. You have an arsenal of equipment to help you assassinate these German adversaries. I cared about silently and cleverly taking out Nazi after Nazi. But this is as far as I bothered to listen as the story was of little interest to me or anybody else I spoke to. Your mission is to eliminate key scientific evidence which, if left alone, the Russians would obtain and hold the plans to the German V2 Rocket and all the research to go with it. You play as Karl Fairebune, an OSS officer dropped into Berlin, 1945 in the final days of World War II. Amidst the confusion, I line up another shot and then another before all that lay before me are a pile of Nazi corpses.

I take out one of the soldiers with a precision hit to the left ventricle. I am the stealth God, the elite sniper warrior.

I have the clothes on my back, my trusty sniper rifle and a bag full of rocks. Nazi soldiers surround me at every junction.

I lay motionless at the top of a broken down building.
