Sniping is the primary aspect of the game but there are times where youРІР‚в„ўll have to move to different objectives by throwing rocks to distract guards, sneaking up behind enemies and dispatching them with a quick snap of the neck or prep areas with explosives on bridge supports or roadside rubble to set off later when the tanks or convoys arrive. The game aims to make you live and feel what it is to be a sniper and it delivers, find a perch and expertly dispatch your enemies and you feel a sense of untouchable godhood but start to miss or fail to scout the area with your binoculars beforehand (marking every soldier in the area for future reference) and РІР‚Сљoh thatРІР‚в„ўs just 5 guysРІР‚Сњ can turn into РІР‚СљomgwtfsomanyarrrrrrrrrrghРІР‚Сњ and youРІР‚в„ўll find youРІР‚в„ўre just a frail meat bag like the rest of us. This is intense immersive audio at its finest. Shots ring out loud and proud and GermanРІР‚в„ўs or RussianРІР‚в„ўs bark commands as they search for you. Music is subtle and sets the tone as you sneak but get discovered and the music becomes as frantic as we are. When perched and ready to strike we scope up and instantly youРІР‚в„ўll hear the deep breathРІР‚в„ўs of Karl Fairborne (you) trying to line up the shot, then as we hold our breath to steady our aim a heartbeat starts to pump and the controller vibrates in time and slowly gets faster as it becomes more and more difficult to hold that breath. The Audio is part of what makes Sniper Elite V2 the perfect balance between building-top long range god and sweating bullets, nail biting, heart pumping stealth em up.

Soldiers are faithfully represented and with the gameРІР‚в„ўs x-ray bullet impact feature including bullet cam so we can watch our special delivery in flight, soldiers are realistically and viscerally depicted with excellent damage models, rag doll physics and depending on where the shot lands the player can be treated to a full body x-ray view of a spine shattering or vital organs imploding (particularly wince worthy for the guys as there is something blood curdling about watching a testicle or two explode) Sniper Elite V2 captures the desolation and bleakness of environments torn by war, tanks burst through walls, its rare to see a structure that isnРІР‚в„ўt Swiss cheesed with numerous holes and rubble lines the streets providing much needed cover. Deployed behind enemy lines in Berlin our mission is to eliminate or retrieving officers and scientists who were involved in GermanyРІР‚в„ўs V2 rocket project as the US seeks that technology for potential future warfare and has no intention of sharing. We reprise the role of long range brain surgeon and American Officer of Strategic Services Karl Fairborne.

Does it achieve this aim? Keep your head down and your eyes peeled for NaziРІР‚в„ўs while I give you the Intel.

The game aims to capture the intensity of covert warfare and the satisfaction of dispatching targets from afar with impunity. Sniper Elite V2 touted as the sequel to Rebellion Developments highly acclaimed Sniper Elite is more a remake than a second game in the series.
