Agreed! SE is all about patience... waiting for that one, crucial, shot that picks off two guards in one shot. Silently. From 400 yards. In a storm.

Very Happy

Really? It's that great? I never tried it, but every words I heard about it were good ones. I will try it maybe when there's fewer games, especially that I just started Gothic 2 again and I can't get away from it anymore Laughing.

Sniper: Elite was awesome, the best game ever made featuring sniping. While graphically dated today I still install it and play through it now and then simply because it's awesome. I'd salivate if they made a real sequel with a modern engine. Imagine Sniper: Elite with the Crysis engine, crawling through the brushes etc. Very Happy

Sniper: Ghost Warrior tried to achieve this idea, but failed very miserably Razz

Sadly no (none that I know of), but it's worth adjusting to pre-Crysis gfx since the gameplay is simply awesome.

i don't get it - what exactly was so great about sniper elite?
i'd be up for a proper actual sniper game but sniper elite and ghost warror were not sniper games.
i tried it - i tried really hard to like it - but it's just a mediocre shooter with a sniper rifle

what's the point of having a long range weapon when you're just walking down a corridor?

best and really the only proper sniper game i've played was arma with a good sniping mission
there's a few good dynamic sniper missions that generate missions and targets
the arrowhead expansion for arma2 now includes elevation adjustment that was a mod earlier

+1

check this mission out on youtube and see if you like it


you can play it with the Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead demo available here
http://www.arma2.com/demo/arma-2-operation-arrowhead-demo_en.html

It also has the editor included, where you can pretty easily set up sniper scenarios, it's an awesome game.

Bullet mechanics in Sniper: Elite includes wind and gravity. Simply the best bullet behaviour I've seen in a game.
