Story
The Latin American island nation of Isla Trueno suffers under a
tyrannical ruler and as Marine sniper Sgt. Tyler Wells, you have been
sent on a covert mission deep into its jungles to aid the rebellion, one
head shot at a time. Outfitted in a ghillie suit that renders you
virtually invisible in the dense foliage, you must stalk an enemy whose
knowledge of the terrain is superior to your own. Can you deal crippling
blows to the dictatorship as a top-ranked sniper? Are you tough enough
to succeed in a close quarter battle as a member of a hard charging
Delta Force assault team hell-bent on liberating the oppressed nation?
Gameplay
Sniper: Ghost Warrior is a first-person tactical shooter that
features game mechanics based primarily on realistic covert actions of a
military sniper. Combat is mission-based and centers on extended
stealth gameplay that challenges players with a variety of strategic and
tactical choices that affect how they approach their objectives and
eliminate their targets. Sniper gameplay is designed to be realistic,
with the player required to cooperate with their AI spotter for
pinpointing of targets, maintain heart beat and breathing control --
especially after running -- for maximum accuracy and performance and
develop expertise with four types of sniping rifles: AS50, MSG90, SR25
and SVD Dragunov. Players in sniping situations also must deal with
conditions such as wind, fog and rain that will test even the most
skilled of shooters. Additional features include multiplayer support, a
slow-motion Bullet Cam Mode, an arsenal of explosive weaponry like
Claymore mines and C4 explosives to defend your perimeter when and/if
your position is discovered or to demolish enemy outposts, melee weapons
like throwing knives for close, quiet kills and the additional ability
to cooperate with a hard-charging assault team member bent on up-close
and personal firefights.
