For a sniper, you sure do seem to get into a lot of fistfights.
CI
Games calls this new Sniper Ghost
Warrior 3 video the “official reveal
trailer,” which seems a little odd to me since the game was actually
revealed in December 2014. But it's
been awhile since we last had a look at what's happening, and it does include at
least one bit of new information, that being the release date of January 27,
2017. So let's have a look.
Sniper
Ghost Warrior 3 kits players out as a modern-day American sniper and drops them
into northern Georgia—the republic, not the state—near its border with Russia.
“Explore large, open-world maps with dynamic weather and a day/night cycle that
actually impacts your play and decisions,” the announcement says. “Sniper Ghost
Warrior 3 tells the story of brotherhood, faith and betrayal in a land soaked in
the blood of civil war.”
I
have to say that for a game that's ostensibly about being a sniper, Sniper Ghost
Warrior 3 sure does seem to have a lot of up-close shooting, stabbing,
bone-breaking, and other such over-excited running around. Which is lots of fun,
yes, but not really very sniper-ish. I would never think of equating Team
Fortress 2 with a “realistic” military experience, but there's a good reason the
Sniper is not the guy you want to be when the bullets start flying inside a
small room.
The
trailer hearkens back to the video CI released in September 2015, when it said that instead
of fighting your way out of trouble, “you're actually fighting your way straight
into it.” We noted at the time that there looked to be more slo-mo hand-to-hand
action than actual sniping, and—bearing in mind that this is a promotional
trailer, and nothing promotes like hardcore action—that still seems to be the
case here. CI Games has previously said that Ghost Warrior 3 will be the “first
AAA production effort” in the series. Was that perhaps code for a shift to a
more conventional military shooter?
