the nutshots are kind of nutty, but if you look at what happens at the first explosion (damage by debris) this might turn a few heads in the wrong direction.
I'm a crappy pilot, but one hell of a shot.

I've played through all the Sniper Elite series... quite an enjoyable game. I always turn off all the kill cams, xray vision crap and gore etc... that just ruins it for me, although it tends to be a 'cool feature' for the more juvenile types.

Juvenile type, reporting in.
I haven't even finished the 2nd and dlc. Good games though. I remember some really great MP games with the first one with a group of friends.
Yep I love them too but I hope, hope, hope they make the effort to craft a better stealth gameplay/actions. I want a WW2 OSS sniper with Hitman/Sam Fisher-like moves.
And please......model for us the silenced Sten!!!!

The coop MP for the Sniper Elite games is really great.
As for the "x-ray slow-mo death cam" thing, it got old pretty fast. I think I used it for one mission in Sniper Elite 2 and then turned it off.

Dunno, me and Crowley did almost every co-op mission in the second one and it was truly great fun, past the gore. Basically in MP you don't really have time to enjoy it as time doesn't magically stop.
We found impressive freedom in solving the tactical issue you're presented, being in drastic inferiority AND outgunned.

Yes it would be but I guess H&D 2 didn't really sell that well so they dropped the series. Oh well.

The best one in the series was the first one with it's open maps and coop. (on console, no coop on PC) Had a lot of fun with that one. The rest kind of became less and less serious and more and more about nutshots.

It was a ton of fun on the Xbox. My group even made a 2 month long 2v2 sniper tournament to go with it. I used to frustrate the hell out of my friends with the randomly placed proxies. LOL
