If you enjoy stealth or sniping, Sniper Elite V2 is an asset worth liberating posthaste.Įditor's Note: The Co-Optimus Co-Op Review of Sniper Elite V2 was based primarily on the Xbox 360 version of the game, with some dabbling in the PC version.Using multiple Xboxes in a multiplayer game with a single internet connection (in the same house usually) is a problem.

Co-op campaign support, additional co-op modes, and Achievements/Trophies that are actually fun to go after, turn what could have been just a good game into something great. Ducking around ruined European villages, setting up traps, and scope-killing the evil agents of Hydra, I mean, Nazis makes for a methodical good time. Sniper Elite V2 offers everything you could want in a third-person sniping simulator. It’s nice to see Rebellion come out fighting after the mixed reception to their last two games, Aliens vs Predator and Neverdead. If a host sits in his lobby and idles, you’ll have to search for a different game type instead of being able to make your own game of that type. There’s no way to specifically host a public match the game just makes you host if no other lobbies are open. Online, the matchmaking is a bit rough – your only options are to search for games of a particular type, any type, or host a private match.

Still, the consoles could have used split-screen or at least system link play for some fine offline co-op. As you could probably tell from this review’s intro, I didn’t miss it too much on Xbox 360. Note that the PC version gets some extra longevity from 16-player deathmatch, a mode the console ports lacks. I expect they’ll put new maps up for sale before too long though. You can replay them on higher difficulties for variety, but more maps still would have been better. At present, there are only three maps for each non-campaign game mode. While V2’s co-op modes are pretty much all that, they aren’t quite a bag of chips too. I suppose Rebellion thought it might be too frustrating in a group setting. Oh, and the highest difficulty, Sniper Elite, is strangely unavailable in campaign co-op. The host player can set the difficulty for each game type as well – a good thing since not everyone wants to deal with the extra variables that affect the sniping on higher difficulties. The injured player even gets to shoot at oncoming foes with a pistol, just like in Splinter Cell: Conviction. In all modes but Overwatch, players can revive each other when downed. If the sniper doesn’t take out the incoming enemies while the spotter does his job, the latter will be killed and you’re forced to restart from either scratch or the most recent checkpoint. Both jobs are actually fun to play and necessary for success.

The Spotter not only marks targets for his sniping buddy, he also has to perform tasks like recovering plans and planting bombs on targets. One player snipes while the other is only armed with machine gun, pistol, and binoculars.

Full campaign co-op is the main course on offer, with three additional co-op modes rounding out the package: The joys of maiming unsuspecting Nazis would be reason alone for sniping aficionados to give Sniper Elite V2 a look, but 2-player online co-op really cements V2 as an outstanding game.
