Sniper Elite 3

Well, sniper elite starts to look like sniper elite here but there still is some frustrating things. Crawling only works 10% of the time and never when you truly need it. The first few cinematic shots are awful. I don't now if it's because of the Sniper Elite 2 to 3 transition but the feeling got way better while playing the next missions. Some missions still can't truly be done silently (at least without feeling like you're doing it wrong or just needing to wait abnormally long for a single action. No checkpoints at all... How did the previous game handle it so well and this one just simply forgets it ? I wasted so much time doing things all over again because I thought the game was intelligent enough (like the previous one) to save after an objective had been done... but noooo. Gotta do it yourself. I don't understand the penetrating bullets purpose too. They do not change from the regular ones. Tested them on tanks and it did not penetrate anything. I still had to shoot twice so as to destroy the oil tanks. And finally, I don't get why there isn't more silent weapons. We're supposed to be a sniper and the armory was introduced. So why does the only silent weapon existing is the good OG pistol. I understand that it's a way of encouraging the player to use the environment so as to shoot silently without any type of silencers or suppressor but still. Finishing the game and not having anything related to it ? Wasted potential. But there sure was some good stuff too. Like the new lighter that is amazingly useful in some situations. PS : Why did Sniper Elite 2 end with a cliffhanger that is absolutely unrelated to this ?

Reseña de Sniper Elite 3 Sniper Elite 3 fue una entrega muy importante para la saga porque expandió considerablemente la libertad táctica y el tamaño de los escenarios respecto a juegos anteriores. Rebellion logró crear una experiencia de francotirador mucho más abierta y estratégica. La historia sigue nuevamente a Karl Fairburne durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, esta vez en el norte de África mientras combate fuerzas nazis y trata de detener un peligroso proyecto militar. El gameplay se centra principalmente en sigilo, exploración y disparos de precisión. El juego recompensa muchísimo la paciencia y la planificación antes de atacar enemigos. Uno de los aspectos más entretenidos sigue siendo el sistema de francotirador. Tener que calcular distancia, viento y gravedad le da bastante realismo y tensión a cada disparo importante. La famosa cámara de rayos X también vuelve con toda su violencia exagerada. Ver balas atravesando huesos y órganos en cámara lenta sigue siendo uno de los elementos más icónicos y satisfactorios de la saga. Una de las mayores mejoras respecto a Sniper Elite V2 fue el tamaño de los mapas. Los escenarios abiertos permiten buscar rutas alternativas, posiciones elevadas y diferentes estrategias para completar objetivos. El sigilo también funciona bastante bien gracias a mecánicas como ocultar disparos usando ruido ambiental o eliminar enemigos silenciosamente. Visualmente el juego representó una mejora importante para la franquicia en su momento, especialmente en iluminación y paisajes desérticos. El cooperativo agrega bastante diversión y ayuda muchísimo a explotar el lado táctico de las misiones. Sin embargo, la inteligencia artificial todavía tiene varios problemas y algunos enemigos reaccionan de manera poco realista. El combate directo tampoco es especialmente fuerte y los movimientos pueden sentirse algo rígidos comparados con shooters modernos. Además, aunque los mapas son más abiertos, algunas misiones pueden volverse repetitivas después de varias horas. Aun así, Sniper Elite 3 fue un gran paso adelante para la saga y una experiencia muy recomendable para fans de shooters tácticos y sigilo. Calificación: 8.5/10

Гарна стара гра, такий собі шутер із вивченням анатомії, своєрідний гумор, ненапряжне проходження. Під кінець, анімації вбивст вже трішки набридали. Після деякого часу буду і наступні частини проходити, в цілому гра сподобалась.

it go, i am so sniper elite cubed

Pretty sure I wrote a review on this in 2014... So here is a quickie. The graphics were great in 2014, but are showing their age in 2026. The sniping mechanics are similar to other sniper games in that there is a breathing control element with wind and elevation, that scale with harder difficulties. What sets this game apart from other sniper games is the x-ray kill cams, Rebellion's games are famous for, and they are awesome. Most of the maps are on the smaller scale and somewhat linear with an open level design, that do offer areas you can avoid or take on for side objectives and collectables. The story is what you would expect, pretty basic but good enough to give you purpose. You can stealth thru the levels minimizing your kills, including melee kills. I prefer to eliminate everyone on the map. Plenty of collectables I missed on my play throughs. The AI isn't very intelligent and you can just wait them out if you miss a masked shot. The vehicles will instant one shot you on some levels, which can be frustrating. Overall, not a bad game, especially if you pick it up on a sale. I included my first video I made on June 27, 2014 when the game released, so you can skip thru and see combat. This was the first game I played in the series, so I sure what to expect. Something to laugh at anyway. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3725467498 https://youtu.be/Uzprt_eR-aE?si=TYr7Wn_0ml72_HMT

A decemt game that is clearly showing its age at this point. Set in the deserts of Africa Sniper Elite 3 places you in the role of Karl Fairborne a sniper that works alone but is good at what he does. The story here is pretty average the Nazi's are working on some kind of new weapon and its up to you stop it. The story is pretty meh and most likely won't stay with you after the credits roll so it's up to the gameplay to do all the heavy lifting. Gameplay wise this best described as sniping is optional at times. The game sets you loose in a variety of maps with a very sandbox feel to it. Your given objectives but how you acomplish them is up to you. That said a majority of the time you'll be navigating from area to area often either trying to quietly take people out or you could go loud but risk getting killed quickly. So a bit more of a balancing act. The game of course does feature the whole x-ray style slow-mo bullet kill cams but this can get old very quickly after you've seen the same animations and position a few dozen times. Sadly it doesn't get any better. Invisible walls and obstucles you should be able to easily scramber over deny you a degree of freedom and breaks the imersion factor. Worse yet all the sniper rifles you get are loud and sound masking isn't always present which means if you take too many shots from the same location without moving. You're going to get hit and hit hard from the games enemies unless you kill them first. So the question is should you buy it? I think its worth it but only when it is on sale. The game's graphics are starting to show their age as well and at times the game is more spec ops than a sniper game at times. For me this is a thumbs up but not a solid one.

Só balaço em câmera lenta HAHAHAHAHA muito top, joguei a primeira vez no PS3 (Emprestado) mas só consegui zerar quando montei meu próprio PC e instalei, só orgulho.
