Must have been an armor piercing bullet. Thanks for the heads up, now I know which game to avoid.

TGM

I think it looks cool.

Larry C.

Why would you avoid it because of that? They're are a million reasons to avoid a game but you think that is valid?

It may be I guess but I haven't come across a game yet that was 100% authentic.

It looks pretty cool to me. That doesn't mean it's gonna be a good game.

Realism is important to me. Especially in a game which is being touted as brutally realistic.
Looking at a Kill cam montage video I see an awful lot of shooting hotspots on vehicles causing them to explode Michael Bay style.

Don't get me wrong, I was initially excited, WWII sniper game? Cool! But it's not WWII sniper game, it's a Covert Operative game set in WWII. Silencers? Trip mines? No spotter, your just a lone wolf behind the lines?

Not for me.

glad you mentioned his game last night. Something a bit different though I'd like to see more. Like the slo-mo and the "CSI" effect of the bullet. We'll see what the story turns out to be and what else it has to offer but does look pretty cool.

the demo was fun...but seriously...how do you NOT play a game with a killshot like this...warning GRAPHIC GRAPHIC GRAPHIC...lol

"That would have to be a magic bullet"

BTW : The guy who made that impressive shot also cut together a montage from the demo that's fairly awesome (and includes said shot). Here it is:

The game has 3 different coop modes....and on top of that the entire campaign can be played 2 person coop.

First review I've seen brings up a lot of the AI issues:

Looks really cool but I will probably hold off until it hits rock bottom pricing.

I picked this up in a moment of weakness. I needed something to hold me over till Diablo hits. I am about 1/3rd of the way through, and it is fun. So far I have not been blown away, but I am happy I picked it up.

Well I am 3 chapters away from finishing my second run of this game...this time on the highest difficulty...

I have to say, this game is a lot more fun than I ever thought it would be. It really is brilliant at times, though the lower budget does show itself here and there. If you are looking for a different kind of shooter, give it a try.

Decker

The PC game is $14.99 (70% off) through today via Amazon Direct Download and is Steam-activated. I picked it up at that price now though it may go to that price some time during the current Steam Summer sale

Great game at $14.99

Just finished the single player campaign. The sniping was extremely fun. Everything else was pretty mediocre and low budget. Definitely worth a rental.

Now that I'm familiar with the levels, I might play through again. I have a feeling this game might be more enjoyable the 2nd time around. Once you know the enemy locations, you can plan out more sniping and avoid close-range encounters.

Has anyone played either of the two DLC missions? I'm kinda reluctant to pay $5/$10 for each one.

I found this game incredibly frustrating. I wanted to play it right: taking my time, scanning areas with the binoculars, crawling and sneaking, using the rock to distract guards, etc. Unfortunately I wasn't able to play it that way, at least to where I found it enjoyable.

I can't believe the difficulty level from "normal" and higher. If you miss a shot, the infantry is on top of you in seconds and you're dead. The Thompson you carry is worthless. If you get into a fire fight, you're fucked.

Also, I would scan areas with my rifle or the binoculars, determine that the area was clear to move ahead and as soon as I reveal myself I get sniped by some magical enemy who wasn't there before.

In the end I just said fuck it and turned the difficulty level to easy and killed everyone I came across, no attempts at stealth. The sniping effects were pretty cool.

I beat it and have no interest in playing it again. Thankfully I borrowed this from my brother in law instead of wasting money on a rental or purchase.

I have no interest in this, but a Wii U version is coming out on May 24.

Decker

If you use the Wii U like a scope, that might be kind of cool, I suppose. Still, I wonder who they're marketing to since any hardcore gamer who really wanted this game probably either got it 6 months ago or picked it up on sale since.

on the wiiu version the ball shot happens on your pad...
