Edge review confirms it.
Missed that one; thanks much.
Was not on the fence for this, bot ordered it after reading the Eurogamer review. Had a blast playing V2, but the level design and extremely difficult stealth prevented me from finishing it. So, those two things should be out of the way now. My gameshop has put a copy aside for me (streetdate has just been broken), but I'll probably only be able to pick it up tomorrow
Cool to read there is 3D support to. Will hook my PS4 up to the telly in the living room, which has that functionality, to check it out. Never used it for games yet, except Puppeteer (which is awesome in 3D)

This game is buttery smooth on ps4 loving it so far .

Need help with an optional objective.
It's on the 3rd mission - Halfaya Pass. I'm supposed to kill a General who's visiting the area. There's an achievement/trophy for it.
Well I can't seem to find him anywhere on the map. I even replayed the mission and killed everyone just to make sure but no luck. Anyone early with the game found him?

Does the Xb1 version support 3d? Not seen it mentioned anywhere

Do the UI margins default to the PDM setting?

No it doesn't due to 3D not being on the XDK. If support for it is added to the XB1 in the future Rebellion may add it to the game.

10GB patch incoming.

Who said mid-tier games were dead? This looks like a vast improvement over V2. I couldn't cope with the linearity.

Pre-download is available now for those who pre-ordered it from the PSN store. 18.5gb for the main game, 454mb for the patch and 1.8gb for the Hunt the Grey Wolf DLC.
My main game was only 4gb :s

Huh, strange. It was listed as 18.5gb when I queued up the download from the PSN website.
Perhaps that's overall install size, or something.

Game is preloading on Steam as I type this, cant wait to play this on Monday with my brother.
From the twitch stream I was just watching it looks and runs smooth on x1. May have to pick this up looks cool.

Haven't seen any PS4 but it's ran pretty well for me. I'd say it's floating around 40-60fps most of the time but depends where you are. But it does have some tearing. You can v-sync though for 30fps.
A later level though was a complete slide show in a certain area. I need to go back and check it out again see if it was a one off.
VPN it to UK and you can play tomorrow. ;d
I wonder if Target will carry the PC version of this game since I have a gift card there. Might be my only way to experience some sniping anytime soon and this one seems like a big improvement over 2 with the levels being closer to the first game.
The series is one of my underdog favorites since I love sniping.

This game is really awesome so far. As I said before it's my first "Sniper"-Game and I already love the stealth mechanics. Of course the A.I. isn't the best (sometimes dumb as a rock and sometimes really smart) but the overall feeling is great.
It totally reminds me of MGS: Ground Zeroes in terms of mission/level structure (the focus is still "sniping" though)
- You can skip cutscenes
- There's a VSync-option
- You can save at any time
- Short loading times
Yeah, I don't regret this purchase

Never played the series. How is V2 and how do the ps3/360 versions compare?
I really, really liked the idea of Sniper Elite 2.
The problem was the difficulty. The AI on Normal was so easy to beat. On Hard it could kill you from a mile away, see through cover, etc. No middle ground.
I hope V3 is better about that because in all other ways I thought 2 was a great game.

Was going to get this through GreenManGaming for $29.99 with the 25% off code but it says it's Out of Stock.

Sure this has been kicked to death by now but why is this releasing later in the US? And yes I feel entitled -_-

So this is something I've just noticed. The game has several achievements for the Grey Wolf DLC. Has a game ever released with achievements that are tied to pre-order DLC?
People who buy the game second hand aren't going to be able to achieve 100% on Trophies/Achievements. Unless Rebellion release the content later down the line from XBL/PSN.
Does anyone know of sites that send out DLC codes separately in emails before sending out the copies?
UK developer and European publisher I'd imagine.

Do they still own the 2000AD license and do they have any plans to return to it?

That's a good one!
I now. Downloaded it, but haven't played it yet as i had it on ps3.
Like se3 do far (3d isn't worth it though. Not much depth and ghosting in kill cam on the bullet). Much better than v2, but still rough arround the edges.

Seems strange seeing a V-Sync option in the PS4 version ... Is there a benefit to having it turned off? better framerate?
Can't wait to pick this up though, V2 was top fun.

Achievements are separate from the base game (they are 0 GS for now for some reason on Xbox One, extra 200 GS on Xbox 360). I'm sure 505 Games will release this DLC for everyone to buy.
V-sync off - <60fps w/ tearing
V-sync on - <30fps or rock solid 30fps w/ no tearing
