Sniper Elite V2
Hi there!! Welcome back, it's time time for Sniper Elite.
Firstly I will dip straight into the gameplay. You are greeted by a very lazy tutorial, you move from objective to objective, screen blacks out each time. Feels a bit rushed. The sniping aspect of this game is flawless the bullets drop nicely, wind affects it, I like the physics of the ballistic element. Then you come to the close range, close range you will die, stay away from your targets! I do like the way some enemies stay alive if you get them in the knee or other non vital part, they call for help luring potential target towards them, right into your sights! |
The enemies do just spawn randomly in certain places, they jerk about humping walls, each other and their firearms. The enemies just annoy me with the ability to see you in cover, in smoke, pitch black and the back of their heads. Evil game mechanics, making it almost impossible to get anywhere. For a sniper game, it contains a lot of fire fights, which is ridiculous, needs more vantage points,spotting and then taking out targets, you know like an actual sniper would do. Graphically this game is average, with plenty of bits which just don't feel right. After a couple of updates and patches it probably will sort out those minor niggley graphics errors. |
Story wise Sniper is ok, a very generalised WWII shooter really, a fairly boring main character who is just doing his job. No back story to him at all. Dunno who he is, haven't even bothered to remember his name for this review. Got into the story to start with, then became quickly bored of it.
Kill cams! The one thing that pulls this game from a bad game to an average game. They seem a lot more refined in the full game, focusing on the particular organs that you destroy. Still haven't got a single ball shot since I started playing. It's a fabulous gimmick, but it grows tiring after a while. Just a gimmick. Nothing special about it any more. Bored |
Killing Hitler. The DLC I got when I bought this to find and kill Hitler was quite fun, unfortunately was going for one of his balls which I missed. Gay! Ah well. Got him though!
Graphics 5/10 Sound 6/10 Story 6/10 Gameplay 7/10 (only for the realistic sniping)
Overall I give it 6 exploded testicles out of 10
If your a fan of snipers you should probably get this game, if your a fan of actual good, fun game don't bother. I was very disappointed with this release.
Until next time!!
