As such, sneaking up to choke enemies from behind, using your silenced pistol for close range headshots, and masking the sound of your gunfire by timing it to coincide with loud background noises, and dragging dead bodies around to use as bait are all smart tactics at your disposal when you're not busting skulls open from afar. You're a specialist trained for stealth and long-distance precision, not an infantry grunt. In any other shooter these would be faults, but they're a perfectly appropriate fit in V2. Limited ammo reserves, limited health, and the sluggish lag time when changing weapons all but ensures speedy death for the unwary. The same goes for being surprised by your foes in close-quarters. Getting caught out in the open with your pants down can be disastrous, since it only takes a few blasts of enemy gunfire to wipe you out. You're just one dude against heavily armed forces. This is a sniping game after all, and I appreciate that the fact you're toting a high caliber scoped rifle isn't merely an afterthought. There are still a decent number of all-out firefights that have you hustling on-foot and frantically spraying SMG fire into soldiers charging at you, but relying too heavily on such tactics gets you killed more often that not. Setting charges to blow up bridges, rescuing prisoners, igniting armored tanks from afar, and sabotaging your foes round out a rotating array of objectives that bolster the more straightforward assassination-focused missions. V2's lengthy campaign delivers a satisfying trek through a well-designed medley of war-torn cityscapes ripe with tactical opportunities for assassination and covert sneakery. The raw essence of what it is to be a sniper is captured here marvelously, and it's this focus that keeps the setting and gameplay from falling into familiar WWII shooter genre ruts. But to be honest, I care precious little about the specifics of why and who once I slink through a stage and find a good vantage point to start popping off shots.

Your mission is to take down or co-opt key scientific personnel to cripple the German V2 rocket program before crucial intel falls into the hands of the Russians.

I can see tactical nut-shot only servers now. There will be multi-player too, so you can shoot your buddies in the nuts. This is definitely sounds like an intriguing system. So it can bounce off the skull and fly in a different direction.” It deforms the bullet on impact, it tumbles and changes trajectory. “It’s a dynamic system that shows every bone breaking, every crunch. “From you firing that shot we calculate where you’ve hit them, what speed they were travelling at if they were moving, where you’ve hit them,” says Hart. This quote from Steve Hart, producer of the game summarizes how it works:

The engine driving this gives each target a full skeletal and internal structure, so deaths happen correctly, as they would in real life. And, inevitably, you can shoot their balls off. Go for the heart and blood will fill their thoracic cavity. Shoot at the crown of the head and it’ll smash like an egg. Aim for an enemy soldier’s neck and their vertebrae will shatter. You see, Sniper Elite Version 2’s first-person World War II sniping is gilded with a fully dynamic skeletal slow-motion animation system. PCGamer recently got to see it in person: Indie studio Rebellion are saying they already have 125 ultra-realistic death animations ready, with the potential for 500 more.
