Another soldier was telling a fellow soldier about his cat, named Brandy, and how he ended up adopting her. I was sat in some grass watching a patrol pass, and one of the soldiers was speaking how they enjoyed the job because they could walk around the forests and just think, or enjoy the outdoors. Other patrols may jump in an APC and drive to your location, using the mounted gun if they have one.ĬI Games has made attempts to give enemies personalities and show that the people you are killing have lives. Some patrols may come running and do a sweep of an area leaving you with a few choices such as hiding and hoping they pass, picking patrol members off one by one, or going for the big shootout. Lookouts will scout your position, enemy snipers will pick you out if you don’t get them first, and patrols will come hunting for you. You can hear the radio chatter as they take cover should your presence become known. Planning ahead is especially important because the enemy soldiers will employ all sorts of tactics to take you down should they discover you. You want to take a moment to sit at your overwatch position and scanning the area with your binoculars, marking enemies as you work out the best approach and spot opportunities. An exposed fuse box could be shot to take power from something causing someone to go investigate, barrels may inexplicably explode taking out some other infrastructure, or cameras may suddenly stop working because you shot it. Some are pretty easy but some do require thinking and planning.Įach map has several ways to distract guards or complete objectives. On top of that there are additional challenges for each level that you can undertakes such as taking out a target without raising the alarm or using a certain type of distraction. Of course, these could lead to the main objectives, but some maps also have bounties to hunt down, adding extra challenge to your missions. Which ever path you go down, you are likely to find something to do and enemies to take out. The regions vary between arid desert and mountainous environments with their own unique layouts and pathways.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 plays best when you have patience and be stealthy where you can. Primarily, this is a sniper game and even with all of that gear you will more than likely be outgunned if running in guns blazing to take a base.

This equipment includes a drone that can scan areas for you (and later be upgraded to shoot poison darts), a standalone rifle that can be used to hit targets simultaneously, and typical loadout fare of grenades and first aid kits. Alongside the sniper rifle you can also pick your side weapon, such as an assault rifle or the Ram-bow, pistol, and equipment. It is important that you go into the region with the correct rifle, otherwise you could end up trying to take out a target 1000 metres away, and not actually have the range or power to do so. Each rifle provides different benefits with some performing better at short range as others are required for the long range targets that are around a mile away. Before you travel to each region you will need to customise your loadout picking from different sniper rifles.
