The fact that these gears seemed to be exposed for no other reason than to be specifically shot at by a meddling sniper did seem a little contrived, but I was happy to forgive it in a Death Star exhaust port design flaw sort of way. Much of this is pretty stock standard, although I did enjoy the rare occasions I was able to use my sniper skills for non-lethal means, like when I had to take out three sets of revolving gears situated around a massive satellite antenna. There are also non-assassination objectives in most levels, typically involving the planting of explosives to sabotage stockpiles of enemy weaponry or the uploading of viruses into mainframe computers. But mostly they’re far too easily dispatched, either with a long range headshot or, should you miss and therefore raise an alarm, by simply hiding in the nearest bush with a silenced pistol and calmly picking them off as they form an orderly queue like it’s all-you-can-eat night at the Hot Lead buffet. At times they show some signs of tactical nous, by tossing a smoke grenade to mask their movements or bombing your last known position with a mortar strike in the more open areas, for example. Poor PatrolĮnemy soldiers might be blessed with supernatural levels of precision, but their actual smarts aren’t nearly as sharp. Zeroing your scope, adjusting your aim for wind and bullet drop and then nailing a headshot in another postal code remains thrilling long after the novelty of the skull-shattering slow-mo gore shots has worn off, but the annoyingly accurate return fire from humble enemy assault rifles at such long ranges admittedly shatters the sense of realism somewhat.

I found these long distance executions to be the strongest sections of Contracts 2.

The latter restrict your movement to smaller maps, such as the top of a mountain range, but task you with eliminating targets that are in some instances over a thousand metres beyond your perimeter. Whereas the last game presented you with a series of sandboxes to sneak around in, Contracts 2 brings some welcome variety by alternating between two traditional open mission areas and three concentrated ‘long shot’ contracts. If you want to snipe, don't waste your time, just go play some sniper elite franchise.The mission structure, however, is slightly different to that of 2020’s Contracts. You also have no control on autosaves so you very well legitemetely miss a shot just to get a save immidiately, preventing you from reloading and trying again. If you don't mind going loud and proud, then you might enjoy this, but to a completionist trying to get all the objective completed, you pretty much always need to clear out enrire camps of enemies without raising an alarm and a single missed shot because of that makes you restart. I have seen too many enemies simply getting stuck midway through their patrols making it impossible to take them out once they walked away from other unit as they get stuck in the middle of an open area. In this glitchy mess of a game, I have encountered too many times enemy animation just glitching from one position to another. Observe the targets, learn their patrol route, see when the opportunity present itself, make the math and take the shot. In a sniper game, you MUST have patience.

As opposed to the previous SGW:Contracts game, I'm reviewing this game having decided to uninstall it without even having it completed. SGW: Contracts like the 1st installement has a nice mix of open world levels with multiple objectives to complete in each level.
