But then, this is a game about sniping, not the machinations of a criminal syndicate’s management system. It just has been done countless times before. But what you’ve got to wonder is Control your friend, just a handler or part of something bigger…? Not that I’d tell you, mind.Īs I say, it’s not terribly written, or desecrates anything done before. There’s some “banter” between Control and Raven, which breaks up the monotony of being a solo operator on a mission of stealth. He sounds a bit like Sean Bean, steering you along the way to your target or side-mission objective. You have a supporting voice in your ear known only as Control.
Not as literal as the deck of cards mechanic, but players will progressively make their way up through the value of their targets. Much like Pandemic’s first Mercenaries game, there’s a structure to taking these criminals out. You play as Raven, a contracted assassin who’s a dab hand at perforating brain-cases from a very long ways off. Amongst this conflict is a cabal of string-pullers and high-value syndicated criminals. There’s a conflict along the border of Lebanon and Syria. More that it’s just a standard covert, Tom-Clancy-on-a-budget story. It’s not a negative in that it’s “the worst story ever”, so don’t get riled up. Rather uncharacteristically, I’m going to get one of the negatives out of the way first: the story. Does it iron out the wrinkles, or is it too much of a long shot to ask for greatness? Gear up, let’s go hunting for a summary. But far from shying away, CI Games took another look and have returned with Contracts 2. It had its moments, but wasn’t groundbreaking. So, back to the briefing board, and Contracts was the rebirth in 2019. And whilst the first two were okay-ish, the third (as always) was just a mess. Starting at the somewhat middling Sniper: Art of Victory in 2008, it turned into modern counterpart Ghost Warrior a year later.
#SNIPER GHOST WARRIOR 1 VOICE ACTORS SERIES#
Not just in stalking targets from afar, but in terms of series brevity and reinvention. On Isla Trueno, Tyler was paired with a spotter, O'Neil, to form the spotter-sniper team, Alpha Nine.Sniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is one of those games that proves that time can be a good thing. Killing Vasquez would cripple the regime, ending its involvement on Isla Trueno. Tyler was then given the objective to kill General Vasquez, the leader of the regime. Tyler was recruited for a small unit of hand-picked snipers to infiltrate the country. In 2009, during a clandestine operation for the CIA in Central America, he was approached by a contact in Langley for a special and sensitive operation on the US-backed island of Isla Trueno after the government had become taken over by a hostile regime. This got the attention of MARSOC (Marine Corps Special Operations Command) and Force Reconnaissance (a special combat unit of the US Marine Corps). Together with his spotter, Captain Mike Rodriguez, they were one of the most successful sniper teams in Afghanistan. Tyler's record as a sniper was excellent with 127 confirmed kills and almost 100 unconfirmed kills. In 2005, he was sent back to Afghanistan as a scout sniper. The Taliban troops were thinned until finally, the remaining soldiers were forced to surrender.Īlthough Tyler had the passion to become a sniper, it would take years before he would become a sniper, especially after being a competition at Camp Pendeleton. During the twelve hour long attack, the Taliban troops were taken under fire from different areas by snipers. This was due to a Taliban attack on his unit. His interest to become a sniper came when he saw a Marine sniper team in action while he was stationed with a reconnaissance unit near Kandahar. Tyler immediately impressed others not only physically, but also mental because of his great maturity. In 2002 he joined duty and was sent to Camp Pendleton in San Diego for infantry training before he was sent to Afghanistan to take part in Operation Enduring Freedom. However, his parents were against it, but Tyler knew it was his true calling. Because he thought he had to prove his duty to his country, he made some engagements with military recruiters and ended up in the United States Marine Corps. Tyler had just started his first semester at the University of Los Angeles when the terrorist attacks of 9/11 occured. Gunnery Sergeant Tyler Wells was born in Gulfport, Mississippi, where his father was stationed as a 'Seabee' (structual engineers corps of the US Navy). As described on the official website, he is a "top ranked sniper". He is a sniper and he is the first playable character. Gunnery Sergeant Tyler Wells is the main character in Sniper: Ghost Warrior.
