Enemies react appropriately depending on how they are hit, whether being thrown backwards from a bullet to the chest or a helmet flying off after a headshot.Ī lot of the problems with Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 come from what it doesn’t do. Everything works nicely, and it wasn’t long before I had a nice rhythm of holding my breath and gently squeezing off killing shots. A slow, smooth trigger pull will minimize recoil, while a quick pull will jerk the weapon. The sniping in Ghost Warrior 2 feels smooth and responsive. On every difficulty except expert, a reticule in the scope displays the final target of the bullet, including the effects of wind and gravity, which is a big help for learning how those factors affect a shot. Enemies appear as icons on the map, and long-range foes can be spotted with binoculars or thermal goggles. On screen displays show heart rate as well as how long Cole can hold his breath, and a map shows the surrounding terrain. Cole can kneel or lay prone to steady his aim, and hold his breath to minimize body movement before pulling the trigger. Shooting is a matter of managing variables like body position and heart rate, while adjusting for the wind and the distance to the target. The game is all about getting in position to take out targets without being spotted or alerting other enemies. When paired up, the other person will often act as a spotter, calling out enemy locations and plotting the course of attack. Working both alone and with partners, he will travel from jungles to war torn cities in pursuit of the enemy.
Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 is a first person shooter that follows Cole Anderson, a Private Security Consultant, on the trail of a stolen bio-weapon.
While the core mechanics feel good, the surrounding game often leaves a lot to be desired, and the experience ultimately misses the mark. For folks who have the itch for some long distance shooting, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 offers an entire game centered on the idea. When I think of sniper rifles, I conjure images of playing Halo online and watching teammates fight (and kill) each other over who got to play with one.
