    Great Game, Not For Me

    Third Person Stealth games, or stealth games in general have always been some of my favourite genres in video games and by all intents and purposes, I should've really enjoyed Sniper Elite 5 but for some reason I never had that itch to keep playing it.

    Sniper Elite 5 is a game where you assume the role of Karl Fairburne, an American-German Sniper on the side of the allies who helps turn the tide of the war in France 1944 through the games own inner plot set around the events of the historical D-Day.

    The gameplay is what you'd expect, sneak around, line up your shots, hide bodies and collect intel. You are truly a commando in every sense of the word.

    One of the best aspects of the game are the level design and missions. The maps are not massive but they're not small either, they are packed with things to do and each level feels meticulously crafted by the developers to an astonishing level. Although you have your main objective every mission there are an abundance of side missions as well as a few different difficulties, I imagine the replayability of this game is great and you could definitely get your moneys worth.
    There are 9 missions in total and each can take between 60 and 150 minutes to complete. Definitely bang for your buck.

    There are multiple ways you can complete each mission, sometimes its just blowing something up, sometimes its breaking a production line, there are several ways to do things as well as multiple enemy types and loadouts that can suit your playstyle.

    If I'm being honest with myself, I genuinely don't know why I didn't enjoy this game. I was the same with SE2 and SE4. For me something just feels off and I would like to make a disclaimer that it is just the way I personally feel about the game. I just never clicked with it. I felt no urge to hit launch and when I was playing it I wasn't getting any enjoyment out of it. It felt like a chore just so I could get a review out and be done with it.

    I got halfway through mission 6 before I said to myself. "I'm just not enjoying this and I don't know why." I genuinely don't. The game ticks every single last box but I guess I can just say that I'm not in the mood for this game right now, that's the only thing I can think of.

    I will come back to this game when I'm in the mood for it and see if I can complete it.

    И снова Sniper elite. На этот раз в Италии. Игра наверно пытается рассказать какой то сюжет, но какая разница, если можно прострелить мошонку итальяшке. А на этот раз вроде бы миссии не коридорные и можно выбрать куда пойти и что сделать первым, а что оставить или даже не делать. Но зачем если можно зачистить всю карту?.. мне кажется в этом весь смысл :)И снова Sniper elite. На этот раз в Италии.

    Con lo poco visto de la saga Sniper Elite he de decir que no veo gran innovación con respecto a sus otras entregas. La historia pudiendo ser interesante es demasiado aburrida y no esta muy bien contada. Simplemente lo mas interesante del juego es el gameplay dado que el resto de elementos relacionados con el desarrollo del juego no consiguen destacar lo mas mínimo. El aspecto menos pulido y mas alejado de lo que seria un buen trabajo son los personajes de la historia tanto principales como secundarios. Literalmente son aburridos y poco detallados dando una sensación falsa de que realmente estas disparando a nazis en la segunda guerra mundial.

    The AI is so unrealistic, you'll get detected by literally anything even in the easy difficulty. I didn't like it back then but decided to give it another try after finishing SE5 and it really is worse in every single aspect.

You can also ghost the German Army, accomplish every objective, and never be detected, killing only the minimum enemies to avoid detection. And you can go gun's blazing and create chaos.

    It is very similar to the Hitman trilogy Sandbox, and yet very different too. Some aspects could be improved, the graphics are good but in some parts, I can't tell if it's draw distance or lacks landscape details, but something looks plain and dated here, some textures like the Nazi's uniforms and trucks look amazing but some world textures look plain and unpolished. The weapon variety and customization are welcome, but also fails to deliver, as many rifles feel and shoot the same.

    Despite its shortcomings, Sniper Elite Italy is an amazing experience for me. I would like a plot with more complex, deep characters and some storytelling elements. I guess the plot is an excuse to blow the brains of several Nazi officers and sabotage their evil plans once again, and that works for me too as the gameplay, ghost mechanics and sniping are awesome fun! There is a unique feel when you leave the area of operations after completing every objective without being noticed, you feel powerful as you ghost the German war machine over and over.

    The game left me in doubt. The game is not a failure, but not a breakthrough. I liked the shooting itself, the plot itself is boring. But the main disadvantage is that the game intelligence is very weak. I also remember my mission to kill chief among the Nazis on the island, but he just didn't show up. I went around the island several times, but did not find it.
    The game is average, but

    The gameplay loop now... That is fun, it's an amazing stealth game, i did everything i could on it.

    Once you get through the spectacle and glitz, the game is a direct downgrade from 3. The tightly designed large levels of 3 are replace with large treks through copypasted terrain to make your way to mini-levels where your objectives lie. This makes most levels long, boring, and easy, due to the fact that you can escape your enemies at any given time.

This makes most levels long, boring, and easy, due to the fact that you can escape your enemies at any given time.

    I have no idea where the claims of excellent AI are coming from, because it's a gigantic step down, even on the highest difficulty. Enemies are less accurate, more predictable, and less capable of taking cover. They will often take cover behind things which give them a massive disadvantage and expose most of their body, and then, if you're too slow at picking them off, slowly charge you one by one.

    To give a key example of how bad the new AI is, it does not even look upwards when searching for you. In addition, the stealth system and detection systems have also been dumbed down. Enemies have shorter sight ranges and less capability to maneuver around the player. Many situations which lead to me being surrounded and killed in 3 were not even recognized by the AI in 4.

    It's badly designed, the "large" maps are superficial at best, and the enemies suck. It's bad. Don't buy it.

    You cannot go wrong with any of the Sniper Elite games and also the Nazi Zombie Army Trilogy. My only complaint is I wish they were longer because I want to keep playing more. I highly recommend playing Sniper Elite 2 first. Then the Nazi Zombie Army Trilogy. Then, 3 and 4.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sniper Elite 4 gerçekten güzel bir oyun ama bazı sorunları var. Önce iyi yönlerinden başlayayım.
    1.Sniper Elite 4 türünde nişancılık ve gizlilik ögelerini içeren piyasada çok fazla oyun yok. Bu sayede kendi türünde tekdir denebilir.
    2. Oyunun oynanış tarafından bakarsak iyi fakat yapay zeka biraz hantal kalıyor. Ben yeni bir oyuncu sayılırım bu yüzden oyunu kolay zorluk seviyesinde oynamaya başladım. Tüm oyuncular gibi başlarda birkaç defa takıldım ancak 2. ve 3. bölümlerde oyun çok kolay gelmeye başladı ve bende herkesin yapacağı gibi zorluğu arttırdım ama bu sefer de çok fazla Nazi askerine karşı savaşmak zor geldi. Ve bir gizlilik oyunu değil de Battlefield ya da Call of Duty gibi bir tarih-fps oyunu oynar gibi hissettirdi (her ne kadar oyun birinci şahıs olmasa da). Bende normal zorluk seviyesinde oyuna baştan başladım.
    3. Oyunun hikâyesi bana kalitesiz geldi çünkü ne karakterlerin hikâyesi ne bi olay örgüsü hiçbir şey doğru dürüst yok. Ara sahnelerde sadece yapmamız gereken görevlerle ilgili bilgi veriyor. Eğer oyunun bütün hikayesi son bölüm olan Allagra Fortress kadar iyi olsaydı bu oyun 9-10 arası bir puan alırdı. En başta söylediğim gibi bu bir hikâye oyunu değil ancak gene de hikâyeyi bu kadar salmamaları lazımdı.
    4. Oyun Sniper oyunu gibi geldi mi? Oyunun çoğu bölümlerinde oyunda gerçekten Sniper gibi hissettim ancak bazı bölümlerde taktiksellikten yoksun olarak sadece ikincil silah ile oynayıp iki üstteki maddede söylediğim gibi sanki BF ya da CoD oynarmış gibi hissettiriyordu. İlk bölüme kötü demiyorum hatta ilk bölümün başı öğreticilik anlamında çok iyiydi ancak The Villa’ya girdiğimizden itibaren oyun tamamen fps’e döndü. Ama yanlış düşünüyor da olabilirim sonuçta bu ilk bölüm ve bu ilk bölüm bize oyunun her yanını gösterebildiği kadar göstermeli ve bu oyunun bir de kombat tarafı var yani gizlilikten çıkıp çatışmaya girdiğimiz zaman ve ilk bölümde bize bu kombat tarafını da göstermeye çalışıyor olabilir.
    10 üzerinden puanlamam (tüm puanların ortalamasını alacağım)
    Piyasada tek : 10 puan
    Yapay zeka ve oyun zorluğu: 6 puan
    Hikayesinin Durumu : 6 puan
    Sniper gibi hissetmem : 8 puan
    Normalde ortalama 7,5 ancak son bölüm ve final fight’ın epikliği hatırına sonuç 8 PUAN

    The game has full co-op. You can play through the whole campaign + DLC missions with your friend. Great stealth gameplay. Missions are quite interesting and it is never getting bored to kill the nazists. Also, the game has coop interaction like soundmask with grenade or simultaneously double kill etc. Funny X-Ray. And satisfying competitive multiplayer with even 8 different game modes.The game has full co-op. You can play through the whole campaign + DLC missions with your friend. Great stealth gameplay.

    Sniper Elite 4 is one of those games that has something for everyone. Being a borderline recluse, I was attracted to the idea of playing as a lone wolf, but the multiplayer co-op Overwatch game was even better!

    The series has barely evolved since Sniper Elite 2 – it got stuck in World War II and one gameplay blueprint. Even the visuals are outdated. Moreover I simply can’t take Karl Fairburne’s exploits seriously as he singlehandedly clears whole villages full of Nazis, takes on tanks and for the third time shoots Hitler in the nuts in the DLC. Pure nonsense. [04/2017, p.60]
