Sniper: Ghost Warrior.

So I just saw this on gametrailers.

Looks pretty interesting. Hopefully it'll be more SIM and less action game.

I've always wanted to play Sniper: Elite, but never got around to it.

Although the trailer is quite grainy.

Seems like its an action game instead of a sim...

Spike88 · 04-03-10, 07:09 PM

I'm not familiar with the company making it.
City Interactive is their name. According to them it's going to be an FPS, but this doesn't help determine if it's more action or sim.

I would rather they skip the shooter part and concentrate on the sniping. Otherwise it will probably be a so so shooter and so so sniper game at best.

OT: Spike88, where'd you get that Playstation Network sig?

Spike88 · 04-04-10, 03:58 PM

It's the official playstation one. I forgot where I got it from. It actually isn't up to date, but that's because I had to scrap the code that allowed it to update, since the forums wouldn't recognize it.

Spike88 · 04-25-10, 06:57 PM

Here's a new trailer.

I think I'll wait until reviews come in before I choose on whether or not I get it. Kinda looks like a call of duty 4 sniper mission rip off.

Edit: I guess a link to the trailer would be nice.

Yeah, doesn't look to promising. Imho a sniper game needs the ability to adjust scope for range and wind conditions. Without that, not even gonna take it seriously.

Dowly · 04-25-10, 07:10 PM

Doesn't look too bad (except for the slow down thing, but you can always choose not to use it). Good thing they have the bullet fly thingy from Sniper Elite in it. Ragdolls sucked, why can't they just make the bodies collapse instead of them flying 10 meters into the air.

Spike88 · 04-25-10, 07:13 PM

It would be awesome if it was like DCS: Black Shark in the way that it could be played as a straight up simulation, or as an action oriented game.

Arclight · 04-25-10, 07:38 PM

Any idea on target platforms? If it's released for 360/ps3, you can be 99% sure there's not going to be any simulation whatsoever. (controller issue; not enough buttons)

Looking at the trailers, it's just point and shoot, maybe little deflection if target is moving, no sign of bulletdrop. Range seems to be limited as well; so much so he might as well be using an assault rifle.

Im pretty sure its a console game. hence the aiming thing.

I happily swallow my negative crap. Seems there's a bit more to it:

It'll be a PC/360 game. That preview has got my interests up.

Oh, man, if you like sniper-games you absolutely HAVE TO get Sniper: Elite.
In my opinion, and despite it's age, it is still, at least for me, the pinnacle of the sniper themed games.
