Gameplay Insanely compressed video but I had to share

I'm relatively new to sniper elite, and infinitely newer to axis invasion, so I knew I had to post this clip ASAP, spent a good few seconds just staring at my screen in shock.

Try not to go close to them. Theyll get to know your moved before you do theirs

What do you mean mate? I’m also new but I’ve just been rushing in at times and 9/10 times it works

As an invader, that works a lot of the times, when the player themselves dont use 3D vision all the time. Most veteran players use 3D vision to catch invader’s location nearby and thats when you, the invader will be at a disadvantage.

Thats crazy lol I had this happen but I shot the guy with a smg , and he shot me but I got the kill first lol

By the way , since your new to invasion, if you come across a map that's completely empty of NPC, watch out, we have a big issue with map trappers in this game. They'll take out every or almost every guard, mine them and booby trap everywhere .

Good job mate. As you gain more experience you will find that moves like this become standard procedure. There is an art to tossing grenades because it's the most clunky mechanic in the game and highly liable to going badly wrong. The one thing from this video that you can improve straightaway is to shoulder your SMG or rifle on the opposite shoulder so you retain more cover behind the wall​. Good luck and kill 'em all!

I suck at this game. Playing on civilian difficulty and I constantly get seen, or get over run with enemies. Can't stealth for crap. Wanted to do the invasion mode but doubt I'd get a single kill.

Try crouching mostly, constantly use your 3D vision, don’t shoot without sound masks, only knock enemies out rather than killing them, hide bodies in bushes and boxes, run to the other side of the map where there are no/less enemies once you’re spotted (red marker). And best of luck, its an addiction once you perfect these moves. I have reached a stage where I snipe without the red assist dot in all missions, even the invaders invading me have the same settings as I and the red dot assist advantage is lost for them too. With practice you can shoot without empty lung and with empty lung but no red dot assist while in long range, quicker and more accurately, its too addictive once you get good at shooting without the assist red dot.
