    SGRW3 is a mediocre open world game with a rinse and repeat the formula approach. The current bugs can affect gameplay in certain areas.

    Sniper Ghost Warrior 3
    A great game held back by performance

    A great game held back by performance
    Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 is a first person shooter that takes place in Georgia, the country
    You play as American Marine Captain Jon North attempting to prevent another cold war…
    The story sounds pretty generic, but things do start getting interested, and I did care for these character despite how generic they actually are.. one of them is basically elana fisher with longer hair and an accent..
    Despite the game being called sniper, this isn’t a sniper simulator…
    The words ghost and warrior hint at options… and that’s exactly what you get here
    This is an open world game with a base that you use to buy new weapons you unclock from completing missions or picking up off of enemies, as well as buy ammo and gear and choose your next mission…
    But this open world isn’t vast, it isn’t connected…
    it just exists…
    it’s a world to put missions into and nothing else..
    You have a buggy to drive around, but there are no other vehicles on the road and the ones off road are all locked…
    There are points of interest around the map though if you are into the ubisoft style clean up…
    Or you can stick to the 11 hour campaign
    The campaign is fun to get through, and challenging…
    Its satisfying scoping out the place with your drone, sniping out enemies from a distance and then going in for the objective, or being a ghost, sneaking in, taking enemues out silently while you try not to alert anyone or be caught on camera.. and then theres the warrior option of just going in guns blazing…
    There are mandatory do not get detection sections of the game, but for the most part.. youre free to tackle a mission any way youd like..
    You can even mix your play style up like I did…
    This means youre going to be unlocking perks in all 3 skill trees for sniper ghost and warrior, but if you prefer one play style then that means of course youll be more decked out for that style with the skill tree..
    Missions are what youd expect…
    Get a point on the map to go to and complete the objective.. nothing more..
    And despite the missions structure being the same throughout, the missions all felt unique thanks to the great level design this game has…
    The game felt fresh throughout…
    However the performance of this game brings all of the great parts down…
    For starts the load times…
    Theyre painful…
    Some missions take place on different sections of the map.. and to get to these sectiosn you have to deal with the games initial load screen..
    Which is 4 minutes long, I wish I was kidding, but the load time for this game is longer than this review…
    Its painful…
    The game also froze trying to load in 2 times….
    And the game would freeze and crash mid shot probably 3 or 4 times….
    its just not reliable…
    and its only made worse by again the 4 minute load time to get back into the game and the fact that checkpoints in missions are so awful…
    Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 is enjoyable,
    The calculating, the scouting, the turning the dials of your scope to adjust to a targets distance..
    All of this makes the campaign so satisfying to get through…
    But the freezes, the crashes, the load times…
    Theyre going to annoy… so be prepared…

    A litle bit of mixing from FarCry (FC) series and Metal Gear Solid (MGS), I have a different experience from the last part when there is no support from the forces or gorvenment military now...

    This might be the right way for C.I Games to make this serie be more thrilling, interesting and better.

    Therefore, I love the Challenge Mode with dozens of threats you have to face. Just imagine that you are the real Marine, you could be trained well from this game, lol...

    The graphic is acceptable part. It's not the best but better than others. The only thing I see the uselessness is the Instinct illustration, haha...You can do the missions done without using it too much...

    Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 has one of the worst pre-rendered cutscenes I've seen in my life, and in fact one of the worst character modeling for a game in its era.

    But I guess it doesn't matter when you're getting this game in its ridiculous 90% sales discount. For a game I got less than 2 dollars for the gunplay and sniping is great and the gameplay loop is actually enjoyable.    … Expand

    Quite contradictory game. At first it seems that before you really the AAA-project, then just good game, and in the end there is a wish to throw the gamepad in the monitor from an ending. At SNIPER: GHOST WARRIOR 3 was the huge potential and a game initially was faceless, it is just a compound of practices from Far Cry and S.T.A.L.K.E.R and other games.

But the physics and sniper firing were worked perfectly out, there was an interesting setting (Georgia after all the former Soviet Union). The setting also distinguished a game from others. Why to do the open world if it the dead and in it nothing to do? But a plot totally ludicrous, characters straight from a cheap sitcom, the principal plot - a baby's dummy in the form of beautiful promotion of the USA. And a plot decoupling - silent horror, so in B-projects that isn't done, action and directly titles. And for the sake of it I spent 12 hours of the time? A spittle in a face of players.… Expand

    Polish shooter is a long separate genre. GHOST WARRIOR 3 is clearly aiming at the new Far Cry. And games are really remotely similar, but GHOST WARRIOR 3 is not Far Cry, it's not even Wildland. I got more pleasure from Wildland. But these games are different budgets.

    City Interactive tried, but the game is not optimized out and boring. We used to interesting worlds Ubisoft, GHOST WARRIOR 3, the world is completely empty and not interesting. You don't want to learn it, and just ride from job to job. Georgia they came out beautiful, but it's too grey landscapes that you depressing. In the same Far Cry 4 was much petee ride and admire the scenery. Here everything is gray and dull.
    In this game we can quietly kill enemies with a sniper rifle or loudly barge in and kill all of the machine. Sniper gameplay I like, we need to calculate the distance to the target, but if hit in the head, pluchery slowmo when the bullet in slow motion pierces the skull of an enemy. Ballistics in the game are normal. Here, the weapons felt.
    The plot of the game is. Developers sometimes even try to present a drama or reveal the relationship of the protagonist and his girlfriend. But the game has no really interesting characters, and silently kill enemies from a sniper rifle or noisy machine can be in the same Far Cry. GHOST WARRIOR 3 loses creature Ubisof in all respects, and I just don't see the point to play GHOST WARRIOR 3, if you have Far Cry 3 and Far Cry 4. Even if you played these games, that GHOST WARRIOR 3 will be a poor substitute - you will quickly get bored. If you want to buy up to the 75% discount, it is not longer necessary.
    In addition to ballistics and sniper rifles I liked the animation. When the hero karapetsas, realistic touches, klogd edit in the car includes the ignition key and so on. The game has such nice things, but it's boring and not optimized.    … Expand

    To the first two parts, I wrote that I do not understand such low ratings, because although there were some disadvantages, both games were interesting and beautiful in my opinion, and deserved a higher rating... But in this case, everything is just fine with the ratings. This game has become ... maybe not a complete disappointment, but still a regression compared to the previous ones.

    Loading screen warrior 3.

    And I thought gta 5 loading screens were bad...

    Has so many errors, bugs, glitches, lags and crashes. It doesn't even work.

    Open world is empty. It's like far cry but less exciting.

    Still it is one of the only proper and decent sniper game in the market. There is not bad game underneath if you dig enough.

    1. Game System requirement is very high(8 GB RAM) after SGW2 (with 2 GB RAM ) but Graphics not soo good.
    2. Not a proper Sniper Game, Only 4-5 missions are there which are Proper Sniper type missions 3. Main Story is not clear enough, All the time I am Playing, I just thought when It will end. 4. Huge loading time, Saves are delay enough 5. I don't    Some reasons for this 6 star rating

    Much worse than part 2. Stupid scripts, if you kill somebody to early or in wrong order the game cat stuck. The open map idea boring and not needed. When you soot sitting guy, he stands up to die. Better play part 2 or Sniper Elite.

    A slick sniping title in name, but one that also encourages creativity, delivers action, and demands adaptation, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 is one hell of a ride. Although it has a lackluster story and a handful of minor issues, it’s still an immensely enjoyable separatist kill fest set in the gorgeous open-world landscapes of former Soviet Georgia.

    Thrives during missions, but suffers when you're exploring its open world and bearing witness to its odd design choices. [Aug 2017, p.80]

    SGW3 is an uncongenial mix of the failed open-world gameplay combined with useful sniping. It can be recommended only to grimly determined snipers. [Issue#275]
