The texture detail for the rock, sand and brick is top notch and really one of the game's standout features. Graphically the environmental visuals stand out, with these vast desert landscapes brimming with plenty of foliage and brush to mask your sniper. The maps themselves are a huge change, giving players the option to complete main and sub objectives in any order, instead of a linear progression through city streets and building. It's a nice change of pace to play a bright and colorful shooter like Sniper Elite 3, in a campaign rarely explored from WWII. This means instead of the cramped and crowded streets of the European campaign's city based missions from V2, you'll be out in the wide open and bright desert. Sniper Elite 3 is once again set during World War 2, this time during the West African campaign.
It's about patience, something you didn't have the luxury of in NZA. Sniper Elite on the other hand is a stealth game that doesn't always require you to be stealthy. While NZA still included the over the top slow motion kill cams that made the series famous, the game was more relentless in its action. These spin off games, while a lot of fun in their own right, didn't capture exactly what the Sniper Elite series was all about. My first foray into the Sniper series was with the Nazi Zombie Army four player co-op titles released by Rebellion a few years back.
