To a certain extent, the balance is determined by the players own playstyle. What sort of a balance does the game strike between long-range objectives and close-quarters combat? It provides a change in the pacing of the game, and hopefully will feel fresh and interesting to players. While the large open maps players loved in the first Contracts are back for Contracts 2, we now also have some maps focused more on the long shot scenarios. With the new extreme long range sniping sections featuring for the first time, we’ve taken a slightly different approach with the maps for this one. How large will the maps in the game be? How much variety do they offer from each other? Obviously, the game systems and level design need to be especially strong to support this, and it’s something that we’ve worked hard on, with some really deep multi-tiered level design and reactive AI. During the Contracts games, we’ve really opened up the ability to do that, and it’s been very well received. One of the things we’ve found over many iterations of the Sniper Ghost Warrior franchise is that our players enjoy having the freedom to approach objectives in their own way. Can you talk a little bit more about that? How did that impact things such as level design and AI during development? The game is also focusing quite a bit on replayability, with each objective allowing players to go about it in different ways. We also provide modes that allow players a much less challenging experience, without completely sacrificing authenticity. In Contracts 2, players will notice that the sniping physics on the higher difficulty levels draws increasingly closer to the real thing with wind adjustment and bullet drop playing a significant role. One thing we are very careful to do though is ensure we’re not making the game inaccessible for anyone. Realism and authenticity are certainly important to us and it’s something that players will see shining through the game, particularly when it comes to the depth of our sniping mechanics. Can you talk about how that materializes in the gameplay in terms of the mechanics and how it affects things such as the shooting and physics? Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 seems to be putting a lot of emphasis on realism and authenticity. You can read our conversation with lead creative producer Kenton Fletcher below. Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is promising many improvements and enhancements, and to learn more about those, we recently reached out to its developers with some of our questions about the game.
PS4 SNIPER GHOST WARRIOR 2 SERIES
A couple of years ago, the series refocused itself and attempted to double down on its strengths with probably its strongest entry in a while in Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts, and now, developer CI Games is looking to take that a step further with a direct sequel.
