    it was in this game that the "camera showing the x-ray" appeared for me until today this game is magnificent! The replay factor is incredible, so much so that every once in a while I download this game to play again. An amazing game but with a very short campaign. It's so satisfying and exciting to get a headshot and see the bullet shatter the skull.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ммм, Sniper Elite V2, еще одна из моего в общем-то безоблачного. И снова довольно низкие оценки как от критиков, так и от игроков, говорящие, что они не оценили в полной мере достоинств игры. Итак, мы играем за американского снайпера, в последние дни Второй мировой (Великой Отечественной) заброшенного в Берлин. Могу ошибиться в последовательности, так как пишу по памяти, да и подробности не хочу приводить - все по впечатлениям. Мы должны вытащить перебежчика с немецкой стороны, убить нескольких высокопоставленных офицеров, уничтожить завод по производству ракет "Фау-2" (или подобных, более опасных) и в конце убить некоего главного злодея, немецкого ученого-перебежчика, который перешел на сторону Советов. Противники сменяются с фашистов в начале на фашистов и русских в середине и только на русских в конце, что выглядит странно в контексте союзничества. Нужно действовать по возможности скрытно, тихо убивая врагов ножом и оттаскивая подальше, обходить позиции противников, ставить растяжки, чтобы они погибали подальше от нас из-за своей глупости и т. д. Это было для меня самым тяжелым, так как действовать из темноты я не привык, а особые задания выполнялись только так, так что приходилось перезагружаться. Можно идти и другим путем, уничтожая танки выстрелом в бензобак, поднимая автоматы с патронами и гранаты у врагов. На нашей стороне всегда эффект неожиданности и время на подготовку, поэтому каждый уровень можно пройти быстро, ведь мы играем за снайпера, который стреляет точнее, чем кто бы то ни было в этой игре. Конечно, говоря о снайперской стрельбе, нельзя не упомянуть кинематографичные прострелы организма противников: череп, сердце, суставы, яички; длинный пролет пули в застывшем времени и пространстве, завершающийся неминуемой гибелью "скелета", хочется наблюдать снова и снова, ты выбираешь место подальше и поудобнее, жертвуешь стелсом, лишь бы совершить красивое убийство. Все главные казни ты производишь только так, и в конце - дальше следует спойлер - забираешься, пробиваешься на Брандербуржские ворота и завершаешь игру самым длинным выверенным выстрелом точно в голову цели, едущей в машине чуть ли не в километре от тебя. Эпично! Геймплей мне зашел. Что касается остального, а именно левелдизайна, графики и самой истории в истории, то эту игру стоит пройти хотя бы ради подробно воссозданного разрушенного Берлина конца войны; графика приятная для глаз, точно передает детали вроде казней, о которых я говорил выше, а также взрывы и горение; история мне нравится до момента, где русские опять становятся врагами, спасибо хоть винтовку Мосина дали, ну и сам сюжет отчасти бредовый, потому что такого снайпера с таким заданием просто не могло быть. Твердые 8 простреленных черепов из 10.… Expand

    AUDIO E GRAFICA:
    Parlando della versione originale, e quindi non della remastered, posso dire che tutt'ora (2020) il gioco graficamente rimane godibile, anche se non nasconde il tempo passato.
    L'audio invece è ottimo sia per la colonna sonora che per gli effetti, oltre ad avere una perfetta stereofonia (che in un gioco così è fondamentale).

    Nota dolente, soprattutto a causa degli anni passati dall'uscita del gioco, sono le animazioni. Queste risultano infatti un po' "legnose" e spesso i personaggi finiscono a bloccarsi in oggetti anche piccoli sparsi per la mappa. Inoltre è possibile scavalcare alcuni elementi premendo l'apposito tasto, ma non è ben chiaro per quali si possa fare e per quali no, finendo a volte per esporsi inutilmente.

    GAMEPLAY:
    Il gameplay è veramente il valore aggiunto di questo gioco, in quanto essendo basato sui cecchini sviluppa molto profondamente meccaniche collegate a questo aspetto.
    Partiamo col dire che il gioco è in terza persona, e si trae molto vantaggio dalla cosa perché si può osservare l'ambiente senza sporgersi.
    Inoltre, per quanto siano presenti anche mitra e pistole, questi fungeranno da armi secondarie o terziarie, risultando imprecise e utili solo in certe situazioni.
    I fucili di precisione invece propongono diverte funzioni. I mirini hanno varie fasi di zoom, si può trattenere il fiato, si può usare un binocolo per "taggare" i nemici, ci si può riparare dietro agli oggetti e la stamina infinita è compensata dall'incremento del battito cardiaco (che penalizza notevolmente la mira).

    Il gioco dà il meglio di sé nel multiplayer, che può essere PvP o coop.

    In Pvp sono presenti le classiche modalità Deathmatch, Cattura la bandiera e Uccisione confermata (che possono essere fatte sia a squadre che in tutti contro tutti), oltre alla Re della distanza (sia team che solo).
    Mi è capitato di giocare a Sniper Elite V2 con altri 5 amici ed è davvero divertentissimo, solo limitato da uno scarso numero di mappe (una decina) e di armi (3 per ogni categoria, ma con i DLC possono aumentare).
    Per quanto riguarda le mappe devo dire che sono quasi tutte bellissime (magari non tutte adatte ad ogni modalità), adatte ai cecchini ma senza postazioni nettamente migliori di altre, il che le rende equilibrate. Inoltre sono grandi ma mai dispersive, cosa che invece avviene in Sniper Elite 3.
    Avrei preferito solo qualche mappa in più, visto che comunque durante la campagna e le missioni coop sono presenti anche altre location.

    Le modalità Coop invece sono davvero originali, ma purtroppo si possono fare solo in 2 giocatori.
    C'è una modalità tipo "zombie" di Call of Duty ma contro soldati, una modalità in cui bisogna raccogliere oggetti in varie postazioni nemiche e riportarli alla propria base (con difficoltà crescente nel tempo) e una modalità in cui un giocatore usa il fucile di precisione e aiuta l'altro giocatore che è in strada solo col mitra e deve completare degli obiettivi.
    Modalità davvero bellissime ma è un peccato che siano solo per 2 giocatori, almeno quella di sopravvivenza poteva essere da 4, e che abbiano davvero pochissime mappe (4/5 per modalità, di cui alcune che non sono nella modalità PvP non so come mai).

    STORIA:
    La campagna l'ho giocata secoli fa e me la ricordo poco, però è quella classica per uno sparatutto. Piacevole ma soprattutto perché è originale lo stile di gioco.

    In conclusione, il gioco ora si può comprare a meno di 3€, da soli non è particolarmente divertente ma se si ha un amico con cui fare le Coop o, ancora meglio, qualche amico in più con fare le PvP il divertimento è assicurato.

    The graphics are great, shooting mechanics is solid, pretty good sound. The game will intermittently send you in shooting where your shooting prowess will determine your victory. This is the kind of game where you need lots of patience, but the game is stealth shooter.

    A criminally underrated game in my opinion, this game is an under appreciated classic.

    Pros: Unlike a lot of "realistic" shooters nowadays such as Battlefield and Medal of Honor, this game actually has a decent story! It is set near the end of World War 2, an American Sniper named Karl Fairburne is set out to prevent a nuclear disaster (avoiding as many spoilers as I can).

    The visuals are awesome, but slightly bland. In some levels, the lighting effects are absolutely gorgeous and the same goes for the shadows. I really felt like it immersed me in the game and really fit the tone perfectly.
    The sniping is heavenly awesome. On harder difficulties, you have to fight against wind movement, forcing you to perfectly align your shots. When you get a kill, it feels really satisfying and rewards you with a breathtaking, yet gruesome kill-cam which shows you where you hit your target.
    The narration is perfect. Whether it be during cutscenes in between missions or in the mission briefing, it is well acted and swiftly progresses the story forward.

    Cons:
    There is a multiplayer, but it isn't even worth mentioning. From my experience, it is horrible. I don't think that the gameplay style of Sniper Elite v2 fits a multiplayer atmosphere.

    Overall, I think that Sniper Elite V2 is a fantastic WW2 shooter and it really immersed me from the beginning. Multiplayer is horrible though. Maybe its better in Sniper Elite 3.

    Steam had it free so I picked it up.

    I wasn't expecting much, but it it's a fine WW2 shooter. The sniper missions are interspersed with parts of machine gun action, so it feels like a single player one man hero. I prefer first person perspective for many reasons. The weakness of third person shows up in this. That's running and turning is tricky. Zooming in changes rotation speed.

Those kind of mechanical functions that feel a little off. However when you zoom on an enemy it goes into first person, and the mix gives it that something else.

    I simply can't rate it low when I got it free. I had plenty of great moments in my first time through, and will re-run it sometime. Maybe when I have a more powerful GPU, I will re-play. On max settings this looks good and is thirsty for graphics hardware: even a GTX660 will struggle under 25fps. Maybe if I can work out how to run DX10, or 9, instead of DX11, I may squeeze a few more frames out.

    I don't know what it is about sniper shooting that I like so much. Maybe it's getting the enemies down without being too close to the heat. Whatever it is, you get your stealth and slow-mo shots in this game. For me, I never got bored of that, and wished it was longer.    … Expand

    Game it self is solid , especially because i played it after Sniper ghost warrior 2.
    Scenery of devastated battlefield brings authentic atmosphere, and the sounds of surrounding war are also good.
    Graphics on max are good, I enjoy it i visual terms.
    Game is pretty linear but exchanging fire with other snipers on the battlefield is superb.
    Kill cam is great. Gadgets that you carry gives you ways to improvise which is good and fun. Maybe combat in small spaces is a little clunky, i didn't like it.

    Sniper Elite V2 is a very well built war fantasy game. It is a fantasy, because even on higher settings your character regenerates health after being shot, and often will be shot 10-20 times but still complete a mission. The graphics are GREAT. This really feels like 1945 Germany. The game mechanics are GOOD. Shooting is fun, and scoping and moving are fluid.

This really feels like 1945 Germany. The game mechanics are GOOD. Shooting is fun, and scoping and moving are fluid. Voice work and sound are GOOD as well. The missions are also fairly good, but we can feel all over the constraints of the consoles in the design. The levels are smallish. There are not enough missions and certainly not enough open maps. A good game but finally it is too small and too short. The missions are great but there is not enough open material to let the player roam about and explore. Future games will need MORE content. Especially more and bigger levels to let the players gain a feeling of excitement in sneaking around and discovering things. It also wouldn't hurt to have a bigger range of interactions with the environment. People have criticized the AI but IMHO it is GREAT. The enemy units have amazing animations, they move realistically, and relocate and flank very effectively. It's impossible to shoot easily at range when the enemy will close in and take you down with SMGs from short range. This makes for very exciting gameplay, forcing the player into constant vigilance and motion to avoid the enemy counterattacks.

    I could hardly be more satisfied with this game. I'm generally not a fan of third person shooters but decided to give it a shot and boy was it worth it. The way Sniper Elite is designed, with stealthy and tactical elements, it's perfect with a third person view and the ability to look around corners etc without peeking out. The graphics are great as far as I'm concerned, very realistic.I could hardly be more satisfied with this game.

The graphics are great as far as I'm concerned, very realistic. The audio is pretty good too - the only thing I could complain about is that the 360 angle isn't always that perfect, having been spoiled with games where I can tell precisely by sound from where the enemy is coming, sometimes it isn't as accurate in this game which can be a little annoying.

    The plot and the actual gameplay are overall good. I like the fact that even me (who is rather good at online FPS games but usually sucks at single player ones) can easily jump into the action by choosing the beginners mode called cadet mode. The controls are very straightforward and well explained during the first mission. The gameplay is a mix of sneaking or crawling around and taking out enemies silently with your pistol and sniper rifle, and also during some parts you will be engaged in more close combat and forced to take out your machine gun and go rambo. The games has it's ups and downs of course and some sections are a little boring but at times I truly feel like a sniper during WWII and the bullet cam/x ray cam really adds to this sensation. Nothing beats peeking out only to deliver a fatal headshot from hundreds of meters away and then see the Nazi's brain being all splattered.

    The only actual problem with the game that I have is the limited amount of secondary weapons/ammunition. I mean the things you start out with, a silenced pistol which is great at close range but sucks even at short distances and a machine gun that has very little ammo and is certain to gather the enemies attention isn't very useful. More often than not I find myself having to rely on my sniper rifle, even in close quarter combat where I have to bring out my noscope/quickscoping skills. But hey this is something I can overlook as I love using the rifle anyways.

    If you want constant action and think it is boring to slowly crawl on the ground while infiltrating a base or spending a few minutes scouting the surroundings with your binocular to find where the enemies are located, then it may not be for you. But if you are looking for realism and having to think before you act rather than just go crazy with heavy artillery then it is certainly something you should try out.    … Expand

    definitivamente o melhor jogo de franco-atiradores e o trabalho mais bem feito da Rebellion. Vale a pena comprá-lo, a ambientação sensacional e apesar de ser difícil se acostumar com a jogabilidade (troca de armas, precisão, etc), você pega o jeito logo na segunda fase. Eu gostaria de um pouco mais de "stealth" e espionagem, por isso darei apenas 8 pontos.

    I rarely write reviews here. In fact this may be my first PC game review, but I was surprised by the amount of negative and mixed reviews this game got and felt the need to add my two cents.

I am an amateur WWII historian so my opinion may be biased when it comes to games based in this era, but it also means I'm a good judge of historical accuracy in WWII games and I must say, this game got a lot more things right than it did wrong.

    I've seen comments about it being an 'arcade shooter' and while I can't disagree with that completely, there is a lot more here than 'a basic shooter'. The main draws are the bullet physics and Kill Cam, and Rebellion got both of those right. I'm not sure if some of these people were playing it on easy mode, but if you turn the difficulty up to Sniper Elite (you can even define custom difficulty levels) the physics and AI become brutally unforgiving. I loved that part of it because I enjoy games that are hard to beat. Some people don't. But those people needed to specify what difficulty they were using when they said how easy it was. There's a strong multiplayer and co-op component and the achievements and in-game challenges add a ton of replay to this too. The story is good and, yes, it is very plausible. It takes place during the last days of the Third Reich when the Iron Curtain began to come down in eastern Europe. The enemies you fight are mostly Nazis, but the missions and even some levels focus on the Russians and their involvement with the Nazis after the fall of Berlin. Specifically the story is about the US trying to get to Hitler's 'Wonder Weapons' before the Russians do and that all happened in reality. Granted there wasn't some lone wolf sniper collecting everything and killing everyone for the US government, but everything else is quite accurate in historical context.

    Anyway, those are my thought. If you like FPS action games you will like this. If you like WWII-era games you will probably like this. Wait for it to go on sale for $10 and buy it, or better yet buy the bundle with the DLC. The DLCs add a ton of replay to a game that already had a lot of replay potential.    … Expand

I don't know what everyone else is complaining about here. Sure, the sniping isn't realistic on lower difficulties. That being said, sniping variables can be added to enhance the experience. Enough effort is required to line up your shots that the kill cam at the end feels immensely satisfying. I'm not one of those people who demands perfect realism in their games. If something feels right, I often don't have a problem with willing suspension of disbelief. As such, I'm willing to overlook some of V2's flaws. Sniper Elite V2 may not offer the most "realistic sniping experience EVAR," but it does make the player feel like a vengeful god dealing righteous justice from across the map while still providing a reasonable challenge. In my humble opinion, overlooking some kooky AI and graphical kinks is a small price to pay for such badassery.… Expand
