The different game modes include singleplayer, cooperative games, and competitive multiplayer.
In some missions there are battles against enemy snipers and in those cases even their reticules shining in the the sun light can be used to reveal their position. The amount of realism for the ballistics can be toned down through a difficulty level.
The accuracy is influenced through the heart beat, the breathing that can be steadied, the force gravity and the distance, and general ballistics. At that moment the camera switches to a scoped first-person view. In most of the situations, especially for kills over long distances, a sniper rifle is used. Nearby enemies can be taken out with a silenced pistol. It is also possible to sneak around, seek cover, and emerge quickly. A safe escape is assisted by placing trip mines, booby trapping a body, or dragging corpses out of sight. In many scenarios it is also required to backtrack and leave afterwards. If he is not careful an alarm is raised and that point the enemy threat becomes overwhelming, also because of the limited ammo. A threat indicator displays how exposed Fairburne is. It is possible to crawl and to throw rocks to distract guards, but there are also grenades. In many of the missions a location needs to be entered stealthily and movement patterns need to be observed before acting. This shooter is played from a first-person perspective and puts tactics and stealth before direct engagements. In this game he needs to hunt down German V-2 rocket scientists. In the original game he was after intel about the German nuclear warfare program. Fairburne is an American agent of the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) who is disguised as a German sniper and is inserted in the Battle of Berlin in 1945 during the final days of World War II. The gameplay and levels are however entirely new, so it is only a remake in the sense that it re-envisions the character and the setting of the original game. It takes Karl Fairnburne, the protagonist of the first game, and offers a setting in the same period of the original title. Not an American user? Description Sniper Elite V2 is both a sequel to and a remake of Sniper Elite.
