    This game is composed of missions with a series of objectives (contracts), these objectives vary from taking down specific targets, to destroying signal jammers and antennas.

    You can collect diaries and tinder boxes in the levels, for each objective and collectible you get cash and skill points. You use the cash to get upgrades for your equipment, like silencers for your sniper rifle, or different kinds of weapons, the game has a fantastic arsenal available and a bunch of significant upgrades for each gun.

    The skills vary from stealth kills that you can chain, similar to the Far Cry games, to the ability of climbing from the bottom of zip lines like in Tomb Raider. You also have a “mask vision” mode that relies on an automatically rechargeable battery, it highlights interactable objects and, after you upgrade it, security systems, and enemies.

    The levels are extremely varied, not only for how they look, but also because of their design, most of the levels are composed of open areas with a multitude of different objectives to complete, think of something like Metro Exodus, or Sniper Elite 4, it offers a fantastic amount of freedom for how to tackle your objectives, as well as what objective you want to get to first.

    The stealth mechanics are fairly simplistic, but satisfying, you can sneak behind enemies and either kill them quickly with your knife, or alternatively, you can interrogate them, interrogating them reveals enemy locations, and if already known, they can also reveal caches, and secret ammo cases.
    The sniping is extremely satisfying, the game is fairly violent and there’s a lot of feedback in the bullet kill cams, that you can disable, or increase the frequency of, to your liking.

    The game looks beautiful, and detailed, varied in its presentation, and runs beautifully on pc.

    The game is fairly cheap and offers a lot of replayability.

    Happy to see this developer improving so much.    … Expand

    this game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome, nut shots are fun and popping a dude's head like a watermelon has never been so satisfying. And they've already announced free DLC map to be added in the future!
    Definitely the best part of SGW series. The graphics is superb. The AI is improved - they even use smoke grenades to hide their location :)

    Definitely the best part of SGWC, as long as it's not the best sniper game at the moment. Introducing a long range shot is a very good move. The graphics at the highest level, the missions are extensive, the AI of the opponents has moved forward. I would like to see another part, but in the climates of World War I or II. I recommend the game with a clear conscience.

    Лучшая игра этой серии. А я играл во все из них! Я не нашел не одной причины снизить оценку даже на балл. Очень порадовал дизайн уровней. Боялся что будет одна скучная пустыня. Но пока скучно еще не было. Нравится картинка. Очень хорош звук. Играю нарочито медленно - смакую каждую ситуацию, каждый кусок локации. Прошлую игру серии прошел дважды, потратив более 70 часов.

    It's actually really good. Far better than it has been given credit for sadly. CI games finally managed to drop a GOOD game that does what it aims to without trying to be anything else. It is unabashedly itself. And I respect that, a great deal. Especially in todays day and age in the gaming industry.

Instead of alternating missions at super long distances and ordinary ones, they should do all them usual ones in which periodically there would be targets at long distances because "missions - shooting range" at the end of game were very tired.

Instead of alternating missions at super long distances and ordinary ones, they should do all them usual ones in which periodically there would be targets at long distances because "missions - shooting range" at the end of game were very tired. Not hard but tired... The graphic aspects are pretty nice. Music and different sounds are always appropriate and normal. Nice inserts of enemy's conversations.
    What I didn’t like in that game:
    1) AI of the enemy is dull even on the penultimate difficulty. For example, enemy can go to the wall and try to go through it.
    2) The mechanics of the game show that the game is not saving next to the enemy. Logically, it means that during a battle, auto-save does not work, which is really logical and correct... but very often the game was still saving during the battle. How do you like this, eh?
    3) Armor-piercing bullets do not kill two soldiers standing in a row if you shoot not in the head. Ordinary soldiers, not in armor. What?!
    4) Cheat reloading: You can shoot down half of the base. Reload from the last checkpoint... and the bodies disappear. Nobody will raise the alarm for a corpse... Profit. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
    5) Drone... almost useless **** In almost 90% of cases, it is banally jammed by towers or the needed place. Or it is too far for him to fly... and now "cherry on the cake": these towers cannot be turned off. The authors overshadowed the complexity of its use and made it almost scrap metal except in rare 10% cases.
    6.1) The last mission in ruins: The game several times reloaded me directly on enemy's "fire point" - death-reload-death-realod. After 3-4 times I had to reload game by myself from the earlier place.
    6.2) The last mission in ruins: Again in that place, when I just came there, there were only 3 soldiers. When I ended mission there and returned to go through to the next mission, there were already 10-15 and they searched for me. The game's bug made them invisible at the beginning of mission and then visible, after ended it and I returned in that village to go through it to the next zone.    … Expand

    Bardzo fajna i ciekawa gra. Cena do jakości 10/10. Z czystym sumieniem można ją polecić. Każdy kto lubi strzelać polubi też SGWC 2

    Dobra gra w dobrej cenie. Kupa satysfakcji za strzelanie do łbów. Kilka drobnych błędów, ale nie wpływają one w żaden sposób na rozgrywkę. Dobra oprawa graficzna, ale jeszcze lepsza muzyka. A przynajmniej ja to tak odbieram. Z tym, że ja nie jestem wymagający i w CP2077 też mi się świetnie grało :-)

    This game is an absolute upgrade to the previous game. It is rare for some stealth games to be set in arid/desert environments. The graphics are great and I enjoy the difficulty of the Long Shot Contracts.

    And finally I arrived at the definitive game of all of the ghost Warrior hehehe. The stealth of this game is very good. the distance the bullet travels until it hits the target and something insane to see

    If one can stomach the questionable story choices, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 has some of the most engaging sniping action around. Whether a player wants to simply click a button and watch a slo-mo bullet explode a head, or whether they want to be forced to calculate exactly how far an enemy will walk in the one and a half seconds between the bullet leaving the barrel and closing the deadly distance, SGWC2 scales exactly to any level of interest and skill. It may be brutally violent, but it’s an intensely satisfying sniper experience.

    The enemy AI needs work and the game’s budget was too low for the developers to polish all the details, but with its spacious environments perfect for extremely long shots (headshots on moving targets from 1500 meters are awesome!) and interesting combat scenarios turning sometimes into puzzle-like situations, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is definitely worth recommending as a well-designed, really fun game.

    Players of the first Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts game will find this second game an all-around improvement, especially in mission design and pacing. The story is a bland concoction of cultural and military stereotypes but it does a proper job of setting the stage for the action, which can be very satisfying, at least at sniping distance. The less open-world nature of the campaign keeps things moving and the large toybox of gadgets and weapons is there for players to use, or not. I wish Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 had a more engaging set of characters and better action combat outside the sniping mechanics, but the game is a well-made step in the right direction for the franchise.
