![]() ![]() It may take multiple attempts to achieve before you get what you want.įunny enough, stealth isn’t that important here. However, some enemies will not give that information up easily. Interrogations, given you have the time to pull it off without being seen allows you to get all of the enemies in the area added to your map and highlighted in your mask. As you come across enemies, provided that you’re stealthy, you can grab an enemy for an interrogation or silently kill them. The AR mask also now includes thermal vision, which is incredibly helpful in isolating targets in the indoor, darker areas. But it has a limited effective range, but helpful in a bind. Your augmented reality mask returns, so now you can send out a pulse to highlight items that may be useful. You can use your binoculars to scout far away targets, tag them, and survey the landscape for weaknesses. How you tackle any of these maps is entirely up to you, and that freedom is what propels the game. It’s a lofty goal, that’s aided by the chosen difficulty. The other three are “extreme-range sniping assignments” that are much more linear, and focus on sniping targets from 1000 meters away. There are two maps, like Mount Kuamar which is reminiscent of a map from the first game and another that also play like Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts where they’re big maps to explore at your leisure. From there, the maps are broken up into two contract types. There are multiple zones, broken up into five distinct maps. You can liken the open-world structure to something like HITMAN 3, but it is a little more linear and it’s own thing than that. From left to right, the game will get progressively harder for you, and much like a driving game would, turns off assists until there’s no guidance at all. From here you select one of four difficulties: marksman, sharpshooter, veteran sniper, and deadeye. There’s bad people doing terrible things, and you must take them all out, starting from the bottom. In terms of setup and story, that’s pretty much all there is. There’s no mention where Seeker from Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is during all of this, though. This time playing as a sniper assassin known as Raven, you’re tasked with taking down a crime syndicate poised to make things go from bad to worse. The first thing that’s noticeable is the cold, snowy tundra of Siberia has been swapped out for the warm, dry Middle East in the fictional deserts of Kuamar. Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is gorier and more satisfying in terms of successfully lining up that perfect shot, but remains a slight letdown as it hasn’t fixed or improved issues that have persisted over the years. This results in a game that feels like a retread of familiar ground despite the new locale. It’s unfortunate then, that despite a greater focus on the extreme distances, there’s diminishing returns on the core gameplay. Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 adds a lot of new, such as a new protagonist, vision modes, and long-range sniping that has been requested for some time. ![]() If people can't complain about From Software games without being mercilessly mocked, I'm allowed this.Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts took the series in a more focused direction back in 2019, and improvements were seen across the board from mission-based contracts to bigger maps with longer draw distances to an array of gadgets that were fun to use. If you can't learn this, it's not the game's fault. Aiming in Sniper Elite (without the dumb aim assist) is more obtuse than this. Zero the scope by adjusting the elevation as close as you can to that distance. Tag the enemy to get the distance (or measure them using the scale in the upper left quadrant). ![]() I hate to be that guy, but if you seriously can't use the scope in this game, you're just bad at listening to instructions and reading (Sidenote, if you think it's too easy, I can't fault you on that). I personally think it has the perfect balance between giving you enough info to tell you where the bullet will go without using that patronizing "Red Dot of Making the Ballistics Redundant". ![]() Some people say it's too hand-holdy, and some people say it's too difficult to aim with. I have honestly NEVER seen something so polarizing. ![]()
