Happyness Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Sniper Elite 3 is a 2014 scheduled tactical shooter video game. It is developed by British video game developer Rebellion Developments and published by 505 Games. It is a sequel of Sniper Elite and Sniper Elite V2. On the 10th January 2013 the parent company of 505 Games; Digital Bros., announced in a press release that Sniper Elite 3 will be released for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Microsoft Windows and next generation consoles. On 13th of March IGN picked up on this news which was later clarified by 505 Games. The game will take place in North Africa during World War II. I am pretty excited for this, I loved Sniper Elite v2 and I am pretty sure I will love 3, hah! Did anyone play v2 (multiplayer)? If so, what was it like? I couldn't play it for many reasons, my xbox was flashed, Jordan's internet sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalvin Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Can't wait, I absolutely loved Sniper Elite V2, it was so addicting.. I just adored the whole 3d skeleton thing when a bullet goes straight through an enemy, also how your difficulty or whatever was customizable. Also how, well, I think I can say this.. realistic it was. Shine o' Vice | Vice City BETA Edition | Grand Theft Auto 3D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voit Turyv Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Oh, that's really great. Nutshots in that games were particularly painful to watch. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Sniper Elite 2 was great fun, loved doing the same level over and over again and trying to get triple/quadruple kills with one shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyness Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 Haha, that video is epic, if I remember correctly, I had a nut-shot and an eye-shot with the same bullet, I may be wrong tho. , fun and addictive game, I also heard that Sniper Elite 3 is much more open and not so linear-ish this time. Much more stealthy too, according to some previewers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunWrath Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I'm a fan of this series too.. especially back in the PC days. Here's a link with more info http://www.vg247.com/2013/04/11/sniper-eli...ndbox-approach/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetjatin Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Awesome, i loved that X-ray kill cams in Sniper Elite V2. Waiting for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheatley Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I thought the next one was going to be set in Vietnam because the main character mentions it at the end of the Sniper Elite V2? -Wheatley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Foley Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Damn, I can't wait. I personally didn't finish v2 because I was in the middle of another game but I feel like I should finish it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vercetti42 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Never played V2 but still can't wait! V2 seemed to be a very interesting game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBlueTroll Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I enjoyed the first one to be fair, it had its fair share of problems but it was not a bad game. Only downside was it was heavily aimed at being a big multiplayer game, and that just never really took off. I don't think i have seen anyone who hasn't boosted earn the online achievements for it. Never played 2, it is on my rent list but i keep getting other games arrive before it. Have watched a couple of the first levels on a playthrough on Youtube though, and the x-ray cam was very nice.

Happyness Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 I wonder how "open-world" or "sandboxy" will Sniper Elite 3 be, what are your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBlueTroll Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I wonder how "open-world" or "sandboxy" will Sniper Elite 3 be, what are your thoughts? Not very i imagine. As i say i haven't played the second, but the first was fairly linear. But then again most FPS are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestic81 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I wonder how "open-world" or "sandboxy" will Sniper Elite 3 be, what are your thoughts? I think it'll be just like V2 with a few new features and new graphics. not that i mind that. the game isn't made to be open world. its just a sniper simulator. one of the best. -- and even though im excited for the game. couldnt they have picked a better place than north africa?

Happyness Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 North Africa played an important role in WWII so that is why I think. Also, Rebellion said that they're making the game more sandbox-y, which has me excited even more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Dildo Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I never played the original, but Sniper Elite V2 was fantastic. if SE3 is basically just SE2 with new locations, more missions, and better graphics then I'll be all over it. it's one of the best sniper games I've ever played.

Adler Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I never played the original, but Sniper Elite V2 was fantastic. Unless you want the thousand meter shot on a generic guy in the last level, then I wouldn't bother with the first SE. The sniping was good but overall, the game is outdated now. V2 is the definitive sniper game, and I'd gladly play SE3 for desert sniping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osho Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 All I need more missions and a Good AI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 All I need more missions and a Good AI I also would like to see decapitation, because even when you rip someone arm off, it doesn't come off. The entire damage model of NPC's will be better anyhow (I hope) instead of the generic wound pop you had in V2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullMetal Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 All I need more missions and a Good AI I also would like to see decapitation, because even when you rip someone arm off, it doesn't come off. The entire damage model of NPC's will be better anyhow (I hope) instead of the generic wound pop you had in V2. Not to mention a decent and more enjoyable co operative/multiplayer. Hell if they'd make a f*cking decent campaign that can be played and enjoyed in co op it'd be so much better. Among then better handling/feel of weapons other than sniper rifles (sniper rifles felt f*cking great.... other weapons that that just blew/had no potential). Not to mention not being able to swap the shoulder view... and other minor gripes that made the game feel somewhat less "perfect". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptReaperDorian Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 All I need more missions and a Good AI I also would like to see decapitation, because even when you rip someone arm off, it doesn't come off. The entire damage model of NPC's will be better anyhow (I hope) instead of the generic wound pop you had in V2. Small arm fire rarely ever decapitates somebody (especially if the bullet fails to yaw or tumble). Unless if you're talking about explosions, then I do think that should be improved. Sniper Elite V2 is a very fun game, and I love playing it with the full ballistics. However, it's still far from realistic. Any weapon that isn't a sniper rifle has spread (a sh*t ton to be exact), vehicles blow up by shooting them in the gas tank (something created by Hollywood), and it appears that expanding ammo is used in Sniper Elite V2 (which is banned from warfare).
