Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 introduces fans to a dramatic single-player campaign where the stakes are at their highest, deep inside enemy territory. Players take on the role of Reaper, contract sniper assassin, operating in the heart of a lawless region of the Middle East along the Lebanese and Syrian borders. Tasked with a seemingly impossible mission - to topple an insidious criminal syndicate and bring them to justice. For the first time, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 delivers precision long-range shooting campaign with targets over 1,000 meters away. Developed by the same studio behind the highly celebrated original Contracts, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 pushes boundaries with the most realistic and challenging experience that the studio has ever created.

    A solid shooting game that manages to achieve the perfect balance between two different worlds. Above all, it presents the experience of a sniper in a highly entertaining and spectacular way.

    Blending classic stealth mechanics with puzzle-y sniping, Contracts 2 gets the job done.

    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.

    Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 works well as a sniping game and a stealth FPP game with interesting maps. The title focuses on getting straight to gameplay instead of overwhelming players with numerous scripts and cutscenes. It's not perfect, but each installment of the series is getting closer to a bullseye.

    This is the best entry in the franchise yet: The level design is great and you have loads of options to get the job done. But the save system is very inflexible and the dumb enemies drag the experience down.

    Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is one of the best games in the world for doing sniping right, that's something I firmly believe. However, CI Games almost seem afraid of letting the game shine, all too often moving you away from sniping, an action the game is named after. In addition, the game is showing a few issues, such as downright stupid AI and a few bugs here and there. It's a shame because there are good open areas to move around in, the contracts allow you to use your brain and plan the perfect hit and it all looks great while you're on your path to becoming the world's best blood-spatter creator.

    Contracts 2 is, regrettably, a near miss that can’t be resolved with a quick follow-up shot. The run of the mill shooting drags the rest of the game down, and there’s so much of it it’s nearly impossible to overlook.vHowever, I’ve still enjoyed my time with the game and will be dipping back into the Long Shot contracts for a while to polish off some more of those challenges.

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. Expand

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. В этот раз будет больше ста часов, я уверен - потенциал для многократного прохождения очень велик. Супер! Жму руку разработчикам! Продолжайте! Вы крутые!! Expand

    Definitely the best part of SGW series. The graphics is superb. The AI is improved - they even use smoke grenades to hide their location :)

    I'll start from the better aspects of the game. The level design and the atmosphere is fantastic, the amount of paths you can use to completeI'll start from the better aspects of the game. The level design and the atmosphere is fantastic, the amount of paths you can use to complete your contract is great. From CQB to taking out enemies from a long range to sneaking in without killing anyone. The variety of surroind is fine, you have two types of maps: forest and desert like.
    The placement of the enemies is very good, I didn't have any hard time taking out enemies quietly.
    Weapons in the game are decent,there's really no big diffrence between them except the compound bow which is fantastic for quiet approach.
    What I really didn't like about the whole game is the acquiring of skill points. To get them you have to complete challenges which sometimes prevent you from completing the contract the way you want.
    The detection rate of enemies should be faster because ou can just jump around them like in payday.
    The sound from enemy weapons is almost none.
    The linear style of the game sometimes feels bad, I really wish they would make a great open world game, for now we have a pretty good sniper game.

    Графика стала получше, мелкие баги исправлены, анимации устранений остались теми же, без клюквы. Также исправили баг с денежными эквивалентамиГрафика стала получше, мелкие баги исправлены, анимации устранений остались теми же, без клюквы. Также исправили баг с денежными эквивалентами — что расстроило, а загрузка с контрольной точки теперь просто удаляет трупы без сбрасывания обнаружения.
    Хоть игра имеет всё такие же большие локации, но теперь ты выполняешь задания в некой последовательности. И да, теперь физически не получиться убить всех на локации ножом из-за локаций, где издалека убиваешь цель.
    7/10 0.1 не дотягивает до первой части из-за «открытого мира».

    Can't finish the tutorial level without experiencing multiple game crashes and black screens. Surprisingly AMD Adrenalin driver didn't crash,Can't finish the tutorial level without experiencing multiple game crashes and black screens. Surprisingly AMD Adrenalin driver didn't crash, which means, the game is poorly programmed and crashed on itself. (Ryzen 3600, Radeon RX5700XT, playing at 1440p)
    Save your money and only give it to the developers that put the effort in their products.
