Sniper Elite 4 (XB1/PS4/PC)

Re: Sniper Elite 4 (XB1/PS4/PC)

About three levels or so in (just finished the railway gun level last night) and this year's version is remarkable. Soooooooo many enemies! As has been mentioned, lots of choices on how to approach every level, and quite a challenge to stay stealthy.

Looks GREAT this year, too!

Re: Sniper Elite 4 (XB1/PS4/PC)

well yeah, who wants a sniper game where you can't get a kill over 200m? that's essentially what happened in 2 and 3, most kills were under 80m.

One kind of strange thing is you can upgrade the magnification of your scope for each rifle (big deal for super long shots), but you do it by getting long range kills. So for example the default sprinfield rifle has a certain zoom, but you add another 'click' to get to 10x or whatever it is, by taking guys out at long range. I guess it adds replay ability by going back and doing missions different and going even longer range, but guys like me what to get that extra long ones right away.

I think my longest kill is close to 300 meters. Insane fun.

Anyone else have a crazy stutter sometimes when you blow up a truck? I'm on PS4 pro also.

Anyone still playing this game? Still enjoying it?
I have a gift card at EBgames and it's between this game and Watch Dogs 2.

Wish I could help but I gave up on both games after two chapters and ten hours respectively. Not giving either of them a second chance either. Sorry.

Did you play any of the previous SE games or the first WD?

No I haven't.
Sniper looks like Hitman with sniper rifles. That appeals to me.
No idea about WD though.

It's not really like Hitman. It's slow and stealthy but that's as far as it goes. It's more based on long range sniping. Each chapter is a decent sized map where you have objectives but for me, it got boring very quick. The stealth takedowns aren't bad but the core gunplay isn't great. Very similar to Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 to be honest. In some ways, better but in others, not so much. It's not a bad game or anything. It's probably in the 6-7 range for me anyway and it's just you doing the same thing over and over. After eliminating every enemy in the first two maps and realizing that it was just the same thing over and over, I simply got bored with it and moved on. I suggest watching gameplay walkthrough videos on youtube. That's what made me interested in the game to play it but it looks more fun to watch than to play. Of course, this is just how I felt. You may enjoy the game.

WD2 just didn't do it for me and I love Ubisoft even though that love is turning into like because they have changed all the stuff I like to stuff that I don't like. WD2 looks beautiful, absolutely stunning on PS4 Pro. Gameplay is solid but I didn't like Marcus or any of the characters whatsoever. Didn't like the humor in the game and that the characters don't really take anything serious. Music, sound and voice acting was good. Shooting was okay. Stealth was meh because Marcus weapons is a ball on a rope or something and I hated that. All the hacking is still there and deeper than the original game. Plus, everything appears on the mini-map as you approach it ala GTA which I hate. I prefer unlocking regions/districts one at a time or like it is in GRW where you gather intel. Worse part is that you can pretty much fast travel almost anywhere right from the beginning which to me, defeats the purpose of exploration. Another reason why I like the unlocking approach as opposed to just being able to do it at will.

While every game is repetitive, both games just hit my limit rather quickly and add in my other problems being that SE4 didn't pull me in gameplay wise while WD2 didn't pull me in story and character wise. Compare that to GRW where im doing exactly the same thing in each province but im enjoying it all. SE4 and WD2 not so much.

Finally giving this a go thanks to Game Pass. I’m REALLY enjoying it. I think what I like the most is that every person on the map isn’t necessarily notified if you’re spotted or your shot is heard. I just finished the rail gun mission last night.

Having a blast playing this game, now that its the free game of the month for PS plus. Never knew much about it before.

Re: Sniper Elite 4 (XB1/PS4/PC)

I remember getting this when it came out then trading it back in for something else.

Decided to play it since its on Gamepass and have been enjoying it actually, like I did the 2 and 3.

Try to go through maps as stealthy as possible every time then go loud and proud when i dont have a choice.

Im sure im almost finished with it, so its been a blast either way.

Re: Sniper Elite 4 (XB1/PS4/PC)

I downloaded it over the weekend as it was free on PS+. Played for about an hour and stopped. Just became bored with it.

The gameplay nor my experience were terrible, just didn't keep my interest.

Re: Sniper Elite 4 (XB1/PS4/PC)

Sniper Elite is one of my favorite series, great fun. I even bought all the expansions (on sale of course). It is even more fun to play on hard with a friend co-op.

Yeah you gotta keep playing. Get past that first mission.

The maps are huge due to people saying the last one didn't have enough distance sniping and it's more challenging trying to go through the missions as stealthy as possible.

Re: Sniper Elite 4 (XB1/PS4/PC)

Just bought this a few days ago. Pretty solid game. One thing that would take this over the top for me, would be the ability to play with A.I. teammates in survival mode. That alone would have me playing this game forever.

Re: Sniper Elite 4 (XB1/PS4/PC)

Playing this finally and I love this game!!

Playing on Sniper Elite difficulty.

Just a great game.
