Fuhrer season!...

BOOM!

Okay so Looney Tunes never played out exactly like that, but it was pretty similar. If you've always longed for a shot at sniping out Hitler's ugly mustache from your perch, Sniper Elite V2 gives you that opportunity with part of their pre-order DLC, an exclusive mission that requires you take out the leader of the Third Reich.

http://www.gametrailers.com/video/lets-hunt-sniper-elite/728...

In addition to the extra level, players will receive access to two new weapons in the form of a Soviet semi-automatic battle rifle SVT-40 and the German standard service rifle, the Kar 98. Pre-orders must be made prior to May 4th in order to guarantee the content.

Sniper Elite V2 is due out sometime this May.

Bit pathetic and distasteful really. I'm already bored of the slo-mo headshot and the game isn't even out yet.

i have been liking the few videos i've seen so far...

but this... i didn't like...

so, he kills like 30 soldiers... none of them thought of flanking him, throwing a grenade, using a sniper themselves or just to HIDE?
and then, when adolf runs away (super smart too... run out into the open when the guy shooting at you just killed 30 guys easily), he misses all the time after 10 consecutive 1shot kills? WTF?

I just hope this game isn't linear and it lets you play how you want to.
If at first you don't succeed; Call it version 1.0

I agree, the slo mo shots of bones being splintered was boring before I'd even finished watching the trailer.

I liked that part where one solider instantly knew where the sniper was and started shooting with incredibly accuracy.

Once again the gameplay looks fun but there is one major thing I didn’t like about this video. The sniper stayed in the same spot the whole time and barely took any damage. You would think with 15 plus soldiers shooting at him one would be able to kill him, or at least make him have to move. Maybe is just because this video was made on a lower difficulty setting but if that’s the way the game is it looks way to easy for me personally. Hopefully that was on the lowest difficulty setting because that looks too easy even for normal IMO. Still, I want to check this game out when it drops.

Um. So the sniper hits a fuel tank at 134m and then starts shooting soilders at around 96m (Based on the target diamond being placed on the map) the first missed soldier pulls an MP 40 and sprays and hits him.... Really?
Figuring the effective range of an MP 40 is 70m and the target is laying down in the dark.

I'd have to say "It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut. "

NI!
