Ranges seem to top out at around 500m (the above compared binoculars also saw the location of the longest shot I managed) despite longer being available far earlier.Ĭassell's The Technical Educator. Personally I used it in all modes as it stopped a little reload sequence if I accidentally selected the other type of ammunition, and the little extra thing to think about was welcome. There is also an option to disable auto reload which can make for some tense moments where you are in a shooting match, have a shot lined up and as you have not been counting you get the ever panic inducing click. Equally counter sniper, anti personnel, anti materiel, stealth, recon and more all feature which is nice. That said you can still do all the fun things like ranging shots so as to dial them in should you so desire, or maybe being forced to take easier shots. Those seeking the purest of pure sniping systems will likely keep searching, if for no other reason than all weapons seem to be chambered for the exact same rounds and everything fires true all the time, and I am never quite sure about leading a target. Hard mode gives wind to account for, 12x from the upgraded rifle and and hardcore with less zoom and no helpers. Over the shoulder, non upgraded 2x mode from easy, 6x mode from easy/normal Switching difficulties is possible, though going to hardcore mode will mean a new load.īinoculars in normal modes and hardcore mode On the flip side those wanting the classic “bullet goes where the crosshairs are at” type gameplay, with all UI elements to help, can have that. You do get a certain measure of increased enemy awareness and reduced ammunition finding ability too but the bulk of it would come from the different mechanics outlined above.
There is also a bullet time mechanic, called empty lung, that also projects the expected hit location of the bullet.
Here you gain extra things to have to account for (wind, bullet drop at different ranges), fewer helpers (ammo counts, heart rate monitors, stealth indicators, minimaps, marked enemies) and it also reduces the zoom available on your scope (and binoculars) as well as removing certain perks from the experience system. To that end where difficulty modes would want to be skimmed over in other games, mainly by them usually just upping or decreasing the health or cheapness of enemies, here it changes quite a few things. Setting it during mid world war 2 is also a way to change this somewhat. Weapons handling in the real world is a tricky thing, going longer range still does not diminish this any. I toyed with some of the others and a dozen other games with decent ballistics but this is the first Sniper Elite game I have done in earnest since that original game. There is an online co-op, one that attempts to mix things up a bit, but it suffers the same problem as all less than ultra popular long form games in trying to find good people to play with. As I have lamented before though it seems local co-op is increasingly a thing of the past. I played the first Sniper Elite game on the original xbox where I had a blast, mainly due to local co-op. For me long distance killing is another one of those and will be how I roll if given the chance, almost to the point of impracticality. If I can be a spear wielding mage you can bet I will be one. Many of us have our preferred weapons and play styles for games. GBAtemp was sent a copy of Sniper Elite v4 for the PS4, this is the somewhat belated review of it.
