Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 Gamescom Demo

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 Gamescom Demo

Complete with Bullet Cam

Written by DaveKinetic on 25 August 11 at 18:39

City Interactive has released a five-minute long gameplay demo from last week's Gamescom of Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2, the follow up to 2010's Sniper: Ghost Warrior, which went on to sell over one million copies worldwide.

The demo showcases the improved graphics that the sequel will have to offer, with the game being the first third-party release to use Crytek's CryEngine 3, previously only used on Crysis 2.



Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 is scheduled for release in Q1 2012.

I personally don't like the look of the sprint motion, it seems a bit sluggish. Other than that this looks pretty cool.

Game could be awesome if it was based around Multiple different missions. If you had to monitor AI patterns in order to timely snipe and kill without other AI's finding bodies. Also they could have a points system that accounted for Headshots/Bodyshots and Time taken for each mission. Kinda a stealth/Snipe hybrid with you crawing around in a gillie suit from time 2 time. If you got spotted or bodies were detected you would restart from a checkpoint and the AI positions would be different. Unfortaunalty this game probably doesnt have any of this :(

Looks like some fun. I'll probably pick it for cheap when it comes out.

CryEngine 3 is the best-looking gaming engine. Others do certain things better (Frostbite 2.0), but I like it that CryEngine 3 is starting to be used.

Did anyone else notice that when he fell down and was climbing the ladder he didn't have sleeves, but when he is carrying his gun he does?

I'm actually getting excited for this. I've been hoping for a decent sniper game since that old xbox game... I forget the name...

Graphics look improved. Hopefully the gameplays been tweaked and the AI isn't as rubbish as the first.

Gameplay is unrealistic. This isn't how Snipers operate. Why does every guy who has a bullet hit them in the head scream the exact same scream? I'm pretty sure when your brain is blown apart by a bullet you don't have time to scream.

Bought the first one for my step-dad, he loves games like this, and he didn't really even like it. The graphics are nice, but for being primarily a sniping game, they should have given it a better feel with the sniping. When your zooming in, the scope is not going to be very steady, and snipers are not just for sniping, they are for recon. The game looks good, just seems like they are missing some key points to make this game more focused around a better feel for the sniping.

I'm pretty sure when your brain is blown apart by a bullet you don't have time to scream.Not to sound like a jerk but if they were to make this game like "real world sniping", it would be the worst, most boring game ever. You would be forced to spend countless hours (days even) sitting and waiting for the very limited window you'd get to actually take the shot...the ONE single shot a good sniper makes per kill.

Now to me, sitting on my couch for hours listening to nature holding the controller and waiting to take one shot doesn't sound fun....the campaign would be insanely long.....just really really boring...

I like a little more action from my games so the move taway from realistic is okay with me.

I do agree with you on the whole headshot thing however.

Gameplay is just, idk know how to describe it. If they want to go for a more stealth aspect, they game should incorporate dragging bodies (like the ones they encountered on the bridge), more "realistic boss battles". Helicopter versus 2 people isn't the most likely scenario.

I mean I like the graphics and the updates but things mentioned above like death animations seem a little corny.

PS. I never played the first one.

Wow, the graphics in this are very improved.
I'm impressed with the game so far, seems to fit the niche it wants to.

And I love sniping in shooters anyway.
