    After almost 3 hours played this game disappointed me, mediocre graphics, effects a little bad, playing in cooperative the connection is quite bad, a lot of lag that makes it impossible to play, you start the game without a silencer in the sniper you only get a silencer in the pistol and when you shoot alerts to the enemies that are still far away, you don't always kill with 1 bullet toAfter almost 3 hours played this game disappointed me, mediocre graphics, effects a little bad, playing in cooperative the connection is quite bad, a lot of lag that makes it impossible to play, you start the game without a silencer in the sniper you only get a silencer in the pistol and when you shoot alerts to the enemies that are still far away, you don't always kill with 1 bullet to the head and if you alert the enemies it is impossible to continue the mission playing on medium difficulty it also has a lot of FPS drops exactly dropped at 20 FPS and constant at 30 hard to see 60 .
    Very good and realistic physics of the shots.

    Despite retaining much of the same Nazi sniper skull-crunching allure from previous games, it lacks a true evolution, choosing to stay safe and satisfying without striving for greater.

    Quite ok, but once again unfinished and thrown on the market.
    Unfortunately standard nowadays
    Many unlocks in multiplayer as well as in the campaign simply don't work.
    Many other bugs

    Sniper Elite 5 as the new season of the series, which was long overdue to close. The series has literally not changed for more than 10 years. Only locations change and slightly tighten the graphics. If you're happy with it, but you can even enjoy Sniper Elite 5. But not on Series S, terrible optimization, sometimes there was a feeling that the game was launched on the Xbox360.

But not on Series S, terrible optimization, sometimes there was a feeling that the game was launched on the Xbox360. The advantages include the variability of the passage, beautiful locations, but not the graphics themselves, it is already outdated in the 4 part. The disadvantages are primarily the plot, dialogues and the main face animation and optimization. For Game Pass, the game is not bad, as a separate product even for $30 is not worth paying attention to… Expand

    The game is enjoyable in the campaign mode. Bonus: it is on the game pass. I recommend giving the game a try.

    Sniper Elite 5 is not the most advanced or modern game. In fact, it looks more like a previous generation game. Still, it's a game that's hard to put down because, simply put, it's fun. It remains satisfying to take someone out from a distance with the well-known bullet time.

It remains satisfying to take someone out from a distance with the well-known bullet time. Still, you sometimes have the idea that the game can take a very long time because there is so little variation in the mission structure. Also, the gameplay is very clunky for a game where precision is so important.

    This game is therefore an excellent addition to Gamepass, but cannot be justified as a separate purchase.

    Pros:
    - Bullet time
    - Fun levels

    Cons:
    - Mission design
    - Clunky gameplay
    - Automatic save points - Graphics
    - Voice acting    … Expand

    I liked SE 3 and SE 4 (4 being the best, IMHO). And I liked SE 5 as well. The game looks very good, and a lot of care has been given to the (details in the) environments. So I would have given this game an 8.

    However...: - The game still has a number of (annoying) bugs. One of which blocked me from completing mission 7, which I had to replay...; - The maps are (mostly) large, but I    I liked SE 3 and SE 4 (4 being the best, IMHO). And I liked SE 5 as well.

    However...:
    - The game still has a number of (annoying) bugs. One of which blocked me from completing mission 7, which I had to replay...;
    - The maps are (mostly) large, but I found that some parts of it could be weirdly empty;
    - I felt the game could have used more innovation or new ideas over SE 4 (besides the improved graphics);
    - The enemies are more active/mobile when you attack them, but still are "not very clever" most of the time. Why a lot of them walk around without a helmet (making them easy headshot targets), also confused me;
    - And last - but not least - Carl (your protagonist) looked nice and thick in SE 3 and 4, but has been slimmed down now. This gives him a head that looks like it is too big, and gives him a boy-ish feel;

    So in the end I will give this game a 7.    … Expand

    Graphically dated, facial animation mediocre, with questionable voice acting. Why do I love it though?

    Something really satisfying about the kill cam sniping Nazis.

    For me, this the perfect game to waste an afternoon in.

    Hitman with sniper. The map is to big and has too many stuff to do in one single mission

    玩着晕3D所以没有特别深入体验，本人整个游玩实机在3个小时左右，然后就去吐了。从这3个小时的游戏体验来讲，中规中矩，没有太惊艳的地方，也没有太突兀的地方。游戏本身多方式完成任务还是不错的，但是对于玩家的引导还是欠缺。我断路器找了将近10分钟才找到，遇到相同问题的玩家很多，都在互相问在哪儿，不知道是不是因为我用的最高难度? 从最高难度来讲，游戏触发惊动的bug还真不少，有时很奇怪就触发了。虽然狙击潜行玩得很开心，但是真没法给一个非常积极的评价。大概是这个游戏比较粉丝向吧。玩着晕3D所以没有特别深入体验，本人整个游玩实机在3个小时左右，然后就去吐了。从这3个小时的游戏体验来讲，中规中矩，没有太惊艳的地方，也没有太突兀的地方。游戏本身多方式完成任务还是不错的，但是对于玩家的引导还是欠缺。我断路器找了将近10分钟才找到，遇到相同问题的玩家很多，都在互相问在哪儿，不知道是不是因为我用的最高难度? 从最高难度来讲，游戏触发惊动的bug还真不少，有时很奇怪就触发了。虽然狙击潜行玩得很开心，但是真没法给一个非常积极的评价。大概是这个游戏比较粉丝向吧。

    The game brings a rather careful evolution and is not that different from the fourth installment. Everything has been taken a step further, including the graphics, controls and even the haptic response of the controller. Which, on the one hand, is fine, because it's still a hell of a fun and polished simulator of a WWII saboteur and sniper. [Issue#320]

    With its large and well executed environments, Sniper Elite 5 is a strong follow up to 2017’s previous entry in the series, with a healthy balance of open-ended approaches and a clear direction. Maps are large enought to revisit and rediscover new areas as well as acting as an endless playground to perform trick shots and discover its secrets. Where it does falter is in the occasionally stilted AI that is either fiercely intelligent or completely helpless.

    Sniper Elite 5 offers a very specific treat to choose from. Everything it does, does it adequately and consistently. There are problems such as the poor AI, the low variety in the gameplay and rough graphics, but the whole package is decent.
