The fifth installment of the Sniper: Ghost Warrior series from Polish CI Games studio. In targetingcontracts they take you to the Middle East to eliminate various targets as a sharpshooter. The game introducescontracts – side quests providing additional funds.
Gameplay mechanics
As in previous editions, Sniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts has no place for fast-paced action typicalof classic FPS games. So if you? are looking for such game, this is not a place for you. As the title sniper,the player enters enemy territory with the task of killing specific people or taking over, designated items. Whileyou have means of defending yourself in a close combat battle type, you don't stand a chance against many enemies.Hence you must utilize sniper skills, and eliminate the most efficient targets as quickly and silently as possible.Rambo-style combat won't do.
Unlike Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3, the game lacks open world. The creators focused on a more limited, and thereforecondensed experience. Instead of exploring world taken straight from sandboxes, the player gets semi-open locationswith objectives to fulfill.
The contract system is an important novelty. The game rewards you with a predetermined amount of expetc. for completing a task, but the player can also complete additional goals in order to receive a bonus.
As usual the game also has the interesting option of watching the bullet travelling (in slow motion) through the airand finally killing the target turing its head into a splatter house.
High realism of the game
SGW Contracts 2 is another work by the authors of the previous part of the series and it also raisesthe bar of realism in the sniper profession even further. You must master a rich arsenal based on realistic militaryequipment, explore vast territories that have never been so detailed before, and take on the most realisticopponents in the series.
A few difficulty levels to choose from
Easy level – enemies' reaction time is the slowest, giving you much time to correct your shot. Thenumber of hints regarding tactic and gameplay is the largest during the game. A red dot will be displayed on thescreen, showing where the bullet will hit.
Medium level – it is a balanced level of difficulty so to speak, in which enemies' reactions arefaster and more aggressive. All hints from the easy level are retained, including the red dot.
Hard level – This is the cream and butter of theSniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2?designed for players who really want to enjoy the bestexperience, the game has to offer. ?Enemies react very fast and hints received during the game are limited. Thedot showing where the bullet will hit is disabled, forcing you to consider the strength and direction of the windand distance to the target.?
