Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The third game in the Sniper Elite series, a prequel set during the campaigns in Africa, chronologically before the fall of the Nazis in Sniper Elite V2. You are again Karl Fairburne, an SOE officer who is sent in to deal with Nazi Wunderwaffe or Wonder Weapons. The location is various parts of Africa as Karl does his best to help turn the tide against the Nazis in favour of the Allies.The game is aimed at being more like the original Sniper Elite, with the more open environments allowing the player to approach their targets with more flexibility as well as possibly putting them in assorted and potentially hazardous situations. The player may also find new solutions to each objective as they stalk around the enemy territory.The core sniping mechanic is still effectively unchanged in this game but other changes were made or added to the other aspects of the game.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })A more detailed kill cam incorporating a new muscle and circulatory system layers, dynamic bone fractures, and a detailed vehicle kill cam add new levels of spectacle to the game. A new variety of tricks that the player can use to distract the enemy or hide their presence are made available to the player. These tricks include starting small fires and sabotaging enemy equipment so that it produces more noise to mask the player's shots. The classic rock throwing distraction is still available.A brand new feature added to this game is the relocation mechanic. After the player fires a shot they need to relocate or risk being found. The enemy immediately reacts to sniper fire now and heads for cover and then begin searching for the player. Repeated shots from the same location will help the enemy locate the player and they will then try to flush the player out or corner and kill them. If the player relocates successfully the enemy will eventually give up on the search allowing the player to once again more freely stalk the enemy.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })Other changes to features include how the enemy infantry and vehicles react and pursue the player. The enemies now more intelligently use cover, suppressing fire, and the general environment against the player. Vehicles are no longer static and will actively hunt the player.The vehicles have expanded weak spot mechanics but are now more difficult to take out. The player has to use a variety of tactics including mines, explosives, anti-tank weapons, or carefully placed shots at certain parts of the tank.A new Experience Point system mechanic has been introduced that allows the player to customize their gear. The experience points can be earned in both single player and multi-player and carry over between the modes.Received a sequel : Sniper Elite 4, set not too long after in Italia.DLC: Target Hitler: Hunt the Grey Wolf: A mission that involves hunting either Hitler or what may possibly be his body double. It is never verified in the mission which it is for certain. This was a Pre-Order bonus, but like the "Kill Hitler" pre-order mission for V2, it was later released as DLC. Save Churchill: A three-part DLC which is Exactly What It Says on the Tin - a mission to save Winston Churchill. Hunter Weapons Pack: It includes the Soviet SVT rifle, the M1897 trench gun, and the M1917 revolver. Eastern Front Weapons Pack: Adds the Mosin-Nagant rifle, the Blyskawica SMG, and the Tokarev TT-33 pistol. Axis Weapons Pack: Adds the Japanese Arisaka Type 99 rifle, the Italian Beretta Model 38 SMG, and the German Walther P38 pistol. Patriot Weapons Pack: Adds the Springfield M1903 rifle, M3 Grease Gun SMG, and M1911A1 pistol. Sniper Rifles Pack: Adds the Kar98k, tuned Springfield, and M1917 Enfield sniper rifles. Camouflage Weapons Pack: Adds a cloth-wrapped Mosin-Nagant rifle, camo-pattern StG 44, and silenced Hi-Standard HDM pistol. U.S. Camouflage Rifles Pack: Adds camouflaged versions of the default M1 Garand, the Springfield, and the M1917 Enfield rifles. International Camouflage Rifles Pack: Adds camouflaged versions of the Lee-Enfield, Kar98k, and SVT-40 rifles. Allied Reinforcements Outfit Pack: Allows the player to use an "Allied Sniper", "Indian Army Marksman", or "GI Sniper" model in competitive multiplayer modes.

Sniper Scope Sway
 Sniper Elite III / Videogame / int_1a27695c
comment
Sniper Scope Sway: Player heart rate, position, and whether you are using the focus mode or not can cause a player's scope to sway. Use of focus mode temporarily eliminates or greatly reduces the effect, and resting the rifle on a surface can also reduce it. Different rifles also have different amounts of scope wobble, and modifications to the rifle can either improve it or make it worse.

Anachronism Stew
 Sniper Elite III / Videogame / int_259d5879
comment
Anachronism Stew: Quite a number of weapons and vehicles appear too early for certain portions of the North African campaign. The Gewehr 43 used by both German snipers and the player wasn't deployed until 1943, a full year after the timeframe of the game's early missions. The M1D Garand used by Karl Fairburne wasn't developed until after World War II, and even the earlier M1C didn't enter service until 1944. The Panzerschreck didn't enter service until around early-mid 1943, making its appearance in early missions anachhronistic. The M3 Grease Gun and MP44 usable through Downloadable Content weren't in common use until 1944. The Sten Mk. II and M1 Thompson didn't enter production and service until late 1942, so for the first two or so missions their appearances are anachronistic. Tiger I tanks are shown assaulting Tobruk in June 1942, when in reality the first unit equipped with Tigers to reach North Africa didn't arrive until November 1942.

Foregone Conclusion

comment
Foregone Conclusion: Being a prequel set three years before Sniper Elite V2, it's already going to be a given that Karl will survive the North African campaign. Also, Project Seuche will inevitably fail given that the Germans and Italians will lose the aforementioned campaign in May 1943.

 Sniper Elite III / Videogame / int_8a888e34
comment
Exploding Barrels: Explosive barrels, fuel cans, and scattered explosive munitions for various forms of artillery. The obvious clue is they are red or have a red part. There are also large exploding fuel drums that can be found in various depots. They can also be set off by setting a distraction fire by the red barrels or munition piles.

Bullet Time: When making a kill shot at a certain distance and/or difficulty you will get bullet Arrow Cam effect. There is a focus mode where if the character's heartbeat is low enough it will slow time down making it easier to target fast enemies and take more difficult shots.

comment
Villainous Breakdown: In several of the late-game diary entries found by Fairburne, Vahlen begins going through a long and drawn-out one following Rommel's defeat at El Alamein, hoping to rush his project to completion for as long as the Afrika Korps can hold Tunisia and he's still in Hitler's favor.

Damn You, Muscle Memory!: On consoles, you equip and unequip the binoculars by clicking the right thumb stick, and stand or crouch by pressing Circle/B. On consoles, you also use Circle/B to quit or go back in menus and suchlike. If you try to "quit" the binoculars by pressing pressing Circle/B, this can lead to standing up at inopportune moments.

Tanks, but No Tanks
 Sniper Elite III / Videogame / int_9751f6eb
comment
Tanks, but No Tanks: Every enemy in the game gets an info card, which you can look at by looking at them through your binoculars. Normally this gives information on the soldier looked at, giving you information like "Rank" and "Weapon", but when you look at a tank of any sort it always says it's armed with an 88mm gun...even for Panzer 3s and 4s, which only mounted 50mm and 75mm guns respectively

Not So Different: A rare example which isn't built upon in the game. Vahlen, the Wunderwaffe engineer, revels in war, and accuses Karl of the same attitude. Karl responds that he and Vahlen are not the same, and when he is about to kill Vahlen, Karl with disgust remarks that he is nothing like him.

Difficult, but Awesome
 Sniper Elite III / Videogame / int_9b9397bb
comment
Difficult, but Awesome: The Welrod is your first pistol, and is a silenced pistol with a One-Hit Kill ability. Awesome! However, it's rather weak, so that one hit has to be a headshot, and it has a low firing rate, so you have to get the shot right first time. This isn't too hard if the target is obligingly standing still, but becomes rather more challenging if he starts moving around.

Ambition Is Evil: In several diary entries and reports made by German and Italian soldiers, Vahlen's ambitions relating to Project Seuche are tremendous. So much so, he eventually plans on backstabbing Rommel, the German High Command, and even Hitler himself once victory in North Africa is assured with his project.

Elite Mooks: Both the Germans and Italians have elite Airborne infantry, who are much better trained and durable than their regular infantry counterparts. In addition, an elite version of the Cold Sniper also exists, wearing desert camouflage over their uniforms. In the Save Churchill DLC missions, there's the Schutzvollstrecker unit, an elite German Army unit armed with prototype weaponry.

Mooks: The various Nazi troops that are part of the Afrika Corps. The generic troops are little more then sniper fodder with more elite troops providing more of a challenge. The DLCs introduce a specialist Wermacht formation responsible for field-testing new weapons and killing Allied officers, and these soldiers are probably the toughest mooks in the series so far. They're not immune to bullets, but they carry all manner of explosives and use shoulder-mount rockets to flush you out.
