    Think Farcry 3 engine with added glitches to it. Feels like the same exact game, but with new maps and RPG skill trees. There is still no Manual save option, luckily there are 5-7 different autosave slots tho, so it likely wont overwrite where you were 5 minutes ago. The square button still feels broke, I press it about 3 times before I reload, when I use a zip line, I can only hope forThink Farcry 3 engine with added glitches to it.

The square button still feels broke, I press it about 3 times before I reload, when I use a zip line, I can only hope for the best, as jumping toward the zip line is just a leap to death. Also, when dead, do I really need to be sure if I want to load last save?
    I have tried to jump over a wall to get somewhere quicker, while I would have made it, game does not allow it. I fell thru the map a couple times and had to reload or suicide to fix. The game was 6 GB installed without patch, is 16 GB with patch. The game was copied from disc quicker than the levels load up, seriously!
    Just renting, but seems doubtful I can finish this, all 5 levels!    … Expand

    I'm only on the first actual mission and many of the annoyances from the first game are present, along with some new ones. Mission intros can't be skipped, dumb enemy AI, terrible map, enemies can hit hit back from over 1000 m with assault rifles, poor dialogue, long loading times...and the game autosaves way too frequently so you may have to redo an entire mission to correct one mishap.I'm only on the first actual mission and many of the annoyances from the first game are present, along with some new ones.

I've already become stuck twice, once on a rock and once on a shooting platform i.e. can't change stance and can only go in a circle on the spot. This game has been a long time coming and to see it with the bad features of the first installment and so buggy is disappointing.… Expand

    SGW: Contracts 2 is another relatively mediocre title in an overly long franchise of sniper sim games. It has some creative level design and great sniping moments when assassinating long-range targets, but it still remains an overly generic FPS game with lacklustre mission design and terrible AI.

    While Ghost Warrior Contracts is nothing extraordinary and does not evolve the genre in any particular way, it still offers a pleasant experience to both fans of the series and the genre.

    Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is a step up for CI Games and the franchise. Running much better than its predecessor and finding the right gameplay formula, the experience is a fun one that allows you to turn your brain off and just let loose, sniping some fools from a cliffside. Whilst not amazing, I am hopeful for the future of the franchise and where CI Games takes it.
