After thousands of invasions, first ever MG emplacement kill

Felt like the planets had to align for this one. Thank you, random Harry, for sitting in that bush.

A booby-trapped body might fall through the ground if moved, leaving an invisible & undefusable mine where it was originally placed

Some of the... sadder... campaign players (focus-reliant and/or map-trapping invader-hunters) manage to leave many undetectable traps around the map.

If you find one, just quit. Some players are cripplingly desperate to get easy invader kills, for some reason.

Sniper Elite 7: Ghost of Vietnam

Here’s my AI slop. I had an idea and fed it to Google Gemini until it came out somewhat cohesive.

Sniper Elite concept set in Vietnam.

•First person mode: a new way to experience the franchise and add more realism than ever. Play how you want, 1st person or 3rd person.

•Online survival mode: 6-12 players fight each other in Objective style game modes. 2 Snipers roles/team. Snipers would play on the outskirts of the map and frontline players would be in the center trying to complete objectives.

•Online 2 player story mode: 1 player is playing the story, and the other player is playing the story but on the other side. Commanding NPCs and completing objectives normally the NPCs would do. There’s not set outcome and either side could win.

•4 player co-op: play the story with up to 4 friends

•Dynamic weather: Rain, Storms, Fog, Clouds, Sun. This dynamic weather will change the way you play and experience each mission and challenge. Set the Weather to off, Dynamic, or set a specific weather type to stay consistent throughout the mission.

•Wildlife: what would the jungle be without wildlife? Be careful stealthing around in the jungle you may set off birds that will trigger nearby enemies. There may be other animals you should watch out for that are all procedurally generated. You may, or may never see them. It’s completely random.

•Quick Ghille: cover yourself with surrounding leaves and branches in realtime to conceal yourself better.

•New weapons and attachments. New equipment. New challenges to complete for rewards. Experimental weapons to be unlocked for completing challenging rewards

The state of SE5's multiplayer is just sad

For one, it's unbalanced as hell. Why Rebellion thought it was a good idea to bring in the perk system from the campaign is beyond stupid. Not only do perks by themselves create a very large gap between those who are low and high level, prestige makes it even worse by giving upgraded aptitudes.

For two, which ties into the balance, there's also the matter of SMGs. If in your Sniper game people just zoom around the map doing COD-style run & gun gameplay then something is wrong and it's made even more of a horrible experiences that everybody and their mother uses the guns with the highest rates of fire just to be SURE you can't fight back for even a second before being sent back to the death cam.

For three, the people. Not only are cheaters surprisingly common and most ones are even whole clans of people ruining matches like that. Aside of cheaters, like I said previously, people don't play the game like it's meant to be a Sniper game. In regular team matches players just abuse their stupid SMGs because why bother having an intense yet satisfying game of having good positioning and timing when you can just go full blitzkrieg? No-cross ain't much better either with players just turning around in circles baiting out glints and easily missed shots.

I'm sure most if not all of these points have already been talked about to death but I just had to rant because I just felt disappointed.

Glitch or really skilled player ?

So last night I got into a Authentic game with a PC player , as I spawned in , no guards were killed (collision course) and objectives were not done.

So I tagged soldiers across the bridge so I could tell when he goes for the radio , and as many guards at certain points. So, I finish up and check inside the main building and as I'm scouting across the bridge I stepped on a mine.

Normally that would have been something I wouldn't have thought nothing of unless its a camper, But it was weird because it was like the guy wasn't even there yet? Every guard was still there, not a single guard was dead and I could tell he was likely by that train station near the start for Harry. And there was the soldiers patrolling inside the house as well .

Is it possible to be that sneaky and plant a random mine in there ? Maybe a glitch in the game or ? Just never seen that before. Just genuinely curious if he was that good he snuck across and mined it ?

How would you fix the map trap problem in SE6?

Everyone hates playing against map trappers on SE5 and SE Resistance but how would you stop it from happening without spoiling the gameplay for everyone else?

Imagine Rebellion are looking on here for ideas to either update the old games or for SE6, what would you suggest?

Maybe mines only work for 5 minutes after being placed?

Make them a bit more obvious to the defender?

Have a limit on how many you can place?

What ideas do you have?

Map-trappers and invader-hunters to avoid for new players trying Invader mode (European servers)

Just quit. They refresh their game and wait for invaders to load in whenever the last one leaves.

Advice is mainly for newer invaders. Also, for Europe. I doubt you'll be matched with these people in Australia, for example.

Some campaign players sadly exploit the game mechanics to attack invaders, instead of doing missions normally.

Criteria are at least two of the following:

=Isn't trying to complete objectives

=NPCs almost all dead, but they never exfiltrate

=Using an easier game mode to track the invader's position using 'focus'

=Traps/mines near spawn points/areas that NPCs don't usually access

=Will camp and leave the game if you don't take risks to find them

=Phone jockey. Rings the phone constantly without progressing the mission.

=Will stay stationary and make no progress for prolonged periods

=Playing on 'Civilian' to permanently tag you

=Save file reused to "farm" invader kills

=Leaves game if you find and corner them

Unpopular or popular opinion? Deathstorm 2 is really overrated

It is a decent mission but everything is so close and packed together and it seems way too much. The map is okay but the amount of enemies packed into little areas just does my head in and you’re reliant on having to using a silent pistol one at a time and hiding if there’s an alert. I’ve seen people call it the best mission in 4 which I can’t understand.
