The stealth is pretty hard because the AI is a little primitive, but none of the missions are impossible. Remember to go prone and use the foliage for cover (doesn’t work as dependently as it should, but it works most of the time). If you’re referring to the sort of fishing village mission, then I believe there’s a very specific path you have to take through that to succeed, and just don’t shoot anybody other than the guys at the piers. Remember to quicksave every time you’re past another enemy, so you don’t have to go back too far every time you get spotted

I got to the first stealth mission and couldn’t use rocks or anything to cover my advances so id constantly fail. It feels like they didn’t even test it at all for problems and assumed the graphics would be enough to keep everyone happy (they are amazing btw).

Best I could do before uninstalling it was try and find the longest shots I could on earlier levels for fun. Even so though, I was being killed at more than 200 yards by machine gun fire after I fired a silenced shot at a guy. Fix the AI, actually have some kind of stealth system and you got a good game. Till then ill stick with my older sniper games and ARMA.

Oh and I did LOVE the bullet cam but you only seem to see it once a mission before you get popped before the cam shot is over. You should get to see the hundreds of bullets flying back at you as your bullet passes them.

I didn’t experience any severe bugs myself, but the buzz seems to be it’s pretty damn buggy for a lot of people. And yeah, glitchy is definitely a word I would use to describe it.

I think the bullet camera gets really old really fast, which is why I recommended switching it off until the final shot. I like the lack of accuracy on non-sniper rifles though; it makes you appreciate the sniper rifles more, it makes the full-auto weapons seem really meaty, it makes you play in a more gung-ho way, and it’s still more than possible to get headshots.

I haven’t played the multiplayer and I have no plans to – it sounds pretty pants.

Well thegame is fun…but.. it has a good amount of problem. AI can spot you even if you are well hidden. the game itself feel glitchy in a farcry kinda way. If you are plaing with any other weapon other than a sniper rifle you can kiss any kind of accuracy goodbye. Bulletmode is fun to watch but you can be killed while the game forces you to watch it. Right now i have had to restart the mission i am on 4 times because the developers still have not fixed a bug in the mission i am on, which causes you to take constant damage even while there is no enemies. Multiplayer will not only nt let you go prone
( which is one of the most important position a sniper has) but they also for some stupid reson thought that it would be a good idea to give you a HUD in which everone knows where you are at all times and they give the killed player a kill cam! All and all thegame is fun but seems like it was halfway finished and then rushed out.

This game is a waste of time and money. The AI is easily able to spot me from 200+yds while i am laying still in heavy foliage. On one level you are instruct5ed to kill a guard and as soon as you do it sets off the alarm and you fail the mission. After suferring through 4 hours of BS I finally decided to uninstall and couldnt be happier. Fallout 3 is more realistic than this game, if only I could get a ballistics program for fallout 3 it would be the perfect game.

Oddly, City Interactive is mostly known for shovelware and children’s games, but they seem to have done a few similar games in the past:

Several military FPS games on the list, but nothing I’ve ever heard of. Could be another marketing failure (it’s not like Sniper was widely publicised), or their previous games could just suck a little; I don’t know.

Bought the game and couldnt put it down. didnt have any lockup issues like the op. I was flying thru the game but met my match on the level The End is Near. Spent 5 hours o 4th of July trying to pass this board and I failed miserably, but enjoyed every attempt I made. For a 40 dollar game I have no complaints. Worth a purchase, more companies should follow in the foosteps of city interactive. Anyone know of any other games made by this company?

I bought it from Steam. I don’t know where you are and whether it’s available in your region though.

Been keeping an eye on this game. One it finally becomes available on steam I think I’ll get it.
