Feel free to use any side of the road you choose.Įxploring the three maps is sometimes boring, but mostly fun.

Also, while there are a ton of cars around, noone but Jon seems to be using them to actually drive anyplace. You’ll find small villages nestled between the hills, abandoned or not so abandoned huts and towers in the woods, military compounds and beautiful old cloisters and churches, which are part of the rich historical heritage of Georgia. The three maps mentioned before represent three different regions, as you will have guessed: the Village, the Winery and the Mining Town. Climbing in first person perspective is, by the way, awful. The country also has a lot of forests and mountainous regions, the first meaning Jon North will be crouch-walking through dense undergrowth a lot and the latter that he will frequently be climbing up and down cliffs to get to the perfect sniper position. It is therefore a shame the game has every native speak a thickly accented English. The game itself is set in the small eurasian country Georgia, which has had an eventful past, certainly, and boasts one of the oldest languages worldwide. The three maps offer points of interest, marked with question marks, enemy outposts to be liberated and far travel points to unlock. Where SNIPER ELITE drops SOE commando Karl Fairburne into different, beautiful and detailed maps with each new mission, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 has marine Jonathan “Jon” North freely hop between three open world maps which offer much room for exploration. If anyone out there is asking “Hey, but what about the story?”, well, what about it? All there is to say is that whatever you think will or might happen during the story missions is going to happen. For the record, I had seen the trailer and thought it unlikely I’d ever play that game, but that was before SNIPER ELITE.įor me there are three main points in the game’s favor: the open world, the compound bow and the most wanted contracts. Now, I have recently come to appreciate sniper games, namely the SNIPER ELITE -franchise, and while waiting for the third Deathstorm-DLC for SNIPER ELITE 4 to come out I decided to try out Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3. Apart from bugs like frozen frames and frequent crashes the loading times in Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 are just ridiculously long.Īn open world first person tactical shooter
