I've been playing Axis Invasion disguised as a normal soldier a lot lately. I'm new to the game and not very good, but I win most of my matches because I can act like an NPC and just walk out in the open without fear. It's kind of incredible how brazen you can be if you just walk casually instead of running, as long as they don't notice a secondary weapon on your back then you almost never have to worry about being seen. I also play with iron sights so they can't tell when I'm aiming at them. It's hilarious to stroll across an open field until you spot Karl, then just wander to the nearest cover with a good angle on their path forward and wait for them to walk out.
Im playing sniper elite 4 at the moment, almost 300 hundred hours play time but loving every minute of it. Just started playing the other quests now so more fun to be had 😁
11:14 "Yannik Honigsmann: Has started coughing up blood, worries that it's Typhoid." Yeah I don't think it's the Typhoid you should be worrying about mate
5:10 AFAIK germans tanks were primed in red before adding camo, so it could be some of the primer sticking out due to wearing and the likes. which IMO could be kinda coherent since it appears on the wheels and the base of the piece.
@@your_avg_us_main In this particular mission, the Japanese brought over some of their artillery for Germany to test & use against the Allies. The whole reason the Allied sniper is there is to sabotage the weapons before they can be utilized.
@@kazakhstanisastate4614 Not sure why they would want the Japanese artillery when they had Krupp and Rheinmetall. Usually it was the Germans sending the Japanese some scraps.
WTH is the scope glint in this game?! I thought I was looking at a damn search light the first time I saw it! Might as well add some huge floating neon signs pointing at your enemy.
@@TizbutaScratch that gigantic search light of a scope glint is the biggest immersion breaker I've seen in years. Scope glint is a tiny split second flash of light not the LED high beam of a modern car.
@@TizbutaScratchbruh scope glint only occurs in a specific orientation. Its just really annoying in the game. Like, there would be no scope glint at night but behold that shit is like a spotlight
Pretty sure there are scope types that either reduce or remove the glint. Their zooms suck that. One thing Im surprised is that I dont think Ive seen anyone use decoys yet
I just wish games had scope glint work realistically, meaning you have to consider where the sun/light sources are when positioning yourself Scopes having a bright ass LED on them whenever you aim is something games will have now for way too long
Yes, pink is often used in certain camouflagues, such as in deserts. The repeated duels with the last guy were amazing. The disrespect of shooting him through the scope only to get clean domeshots both times after. That's consistency.
Thanks you so much for getting me into this part of the game , have played the campaign loads of times and still do as I love it but I never bothered with this untill I seen you and I have to say I’m loving it , it’s just good fun , I kind of wish you could speak or at least message but maybe it’s better you can’t , saves the almost definite trolls and abuse that would happen
That kill in the tower was hilarious. I must admit I enjoy the kills when I see the person dive into the bushes thinking I haven’t and I throw a grenade , they light me up with the sniper sometimes even get a shot but they die first from the blast 😂
7:37 I have rewatched this section so many times, turning it down to 0.25 speed and pausing to look around and I still have no idea how you located that guy.
I'm amazed how seemingly few people use Focus during an invasion. That guy you stuck with a grenade in the bush should never have been so unaware that you were there. When I get invaded, I immediately hunt down the invader, and I'm almost never NOT in Focus. Literal wall hacks are your biggest advantage, and using them, I WILL find you. Also, to this day, any time I'm scanning for an enemy sniper, whether player or AI, when I finally see them, I hear Raubvogel's hiss of _"I SEE YOU"_ in the back of my mind.
I remember so many of my invasion kills ending up like that first one during the launch week when folks didn't know what invasion was or how to fight it
Love the pvp style of the game. I remember getting really good at Evolve when that was new, and when we spawned in, my friend started chasing the footprints. I told him that was a decoy, and the monster went the opposite way. He didn't wanna believe me so I went off on my own and low and behold the monster jumped me, and I spent the whole time flaming my friend for being so easily fooled.
I gotta say, coming home from work to watch you hunt is actually pretty enjoyable. Maybe it's just that smooth, hypnotic voice, or maybe it's thinking about how I'd perform in your shoes. Either way, this is good stuff.
5:15 You may think its weird, but Pink is actually a pretty good colour for camouflage in the dawn and dusk it absorbs quite a big of light and matches with surroundings Look up the SAS Pink Panther jeeps, they are painted fully pink
5:10 fun fact: pink worked wonderfully as a color for camouflage back in WW2, but it was only effective in a dessert environment. so definitely out of place there.
I’ve just started playing this game, I ended up in the crow bar room until I killed every enemy then switched off the radar. I’m positive there’s a better way. Currently stuck in a field at the chateaux with alarms goin off everywhere. Great game
I love SE5, but the one time I played Axis Invasion was my first time playing the game. I was so nervous throughout but managed to kill the Sniper Jäger via SMG. Havent tried the mode since
I've had to go on hiatus, I started to have the maps learnt so well I could identify almost exactly where the Karl was from where I spawned, knew all of the AI locations and was almost never actually losing bar campers. gonna let the rust build up so I can have some proper hunts again.
Interesting you pointed out the pinkish camo on the artillery piece, i live next to it on Guernsey and i dont think it has a third color aside from the green and yellow. It does however have some faded yellow rusted parts that look pale orange so maybe theyre trying to replicate that
Holy shit this was yesterday I’ve been watching literally every single one of your sniper elite videos lol,hell yea if possible I think it would be interesting and very challenging for you to do a mine only run. 😅💯🙌🏻
Your videos are the best to watch mate! Just 1 suggestion, your sound is insanely high (in my opinion), I have my sound quite low but yet your videos are always quite loud when i open them. Maybe its me but everything else is much quieter. Keep up the great videos mate! MORE SNIPING!
Likely the last guy on Guernsey was using his Focus ability and could see your approximate direction on his compass. So he probably was scanning that bunker for you. It's hard to get a surprise on a decent Karl using that.

You say you're not very good, but it sounds like you're just underestimating yourself.
"Not very good" with more wins than loses by using an out-of-the-box tactic? Not even average imo
That is straight up good gameplay
Literally how I win 90% of invasions in Watch_Dogs. Everyone is always looking for player movement or actions, not something that looks scripted.

@@Danyosan-o3vSniper Elite 4 is awesome. You played the Overwatch gamemode yet?
That kill in the tower, when he came flying out due to that grenade was hilarious
He was panic 😂
11:14 "Yannik Honigsmann: Has started coughing up blood, worries that it's Typhoid." Yeah I don't think it's the Typhoid you should be worrying about mate
Typhoid that moves at 1200mps?
@@moistmike4150 I think typical rifle round travel around 900m/s. 1200 is too much
That first kill was just funny
0:10 > Dressed as Wehrmacht soldier
> "Johnny Comes Marching Home"; one of the most American pieces of music you can play.
While equipped with a British rifle.
Mr. Worldwide
"Johnny I hardly knew ye" is what I hear
It's also specifically the version from Die Hard with a Vengeance.
While also having a banned weapon on his back, the German officers is going to have a few questions regarding that lol

could anyone explain why the japanese flag doing there
@@your_avg_us_mainGermany and japan were allied together?

That to-and-fro in the tower was hilarious.
Normal soldier disguise
Also: very obvious shotgun
4:19
Serious TF2 energy right there. Soldier probably remembers this day fondly.
that scaffold climb thing was an absolute violation
Been waiting for some more Sniper Elite gameplay. Thank you very much!
16:00 damn I can't tell you enough how much I love that Commandos 2 soundtrack! Excellent WW2 action sir
I got this game on steam because of you and I have been playing it non stop and going back and forth from the campaign to axis invasions.
WTH is the scope glint in this game?! I thought I was looking at a damn search light the first time I saw it! Might as well add some huge floating neon signs pointing at your enemy.
It's called immersion. Scope glint is real and it will kill you quickly when there are enemy snipers out looking for you.
@@TizbutaScratch that gigantic search light of a scope glint is the biggest immersion breaker I've seen in years. Scope glint is a tiny split second flash of light not the LED high beam of a modern car.
@@TizbutaScratchbruh scope glint only occurs in a specific orientation. Its just really annoying in the game. Like, there would be no scope glint at night but behold that shit is like a spotlight
@@TizbutaScratchyeah but you usually need to be facing the sun and it’s not THAT prominent
@@TizbutaScratch Oof. You really went there.
With your cheerful soft voice and entertaining good gameplay, you sir remind me of a British gamer sniper Bob Ross.
Damn. I think you got a sense of that first guy very quickly
It would be cool if there was a zero scope glint setting for this game mode that would up the skill it takes to spot eachother
Pretty sure there are scope types that either reduce or remove the glint. Their zooms suck that. One thing Im surprised is that I dont think Ive seen anyone use decoys yet
I just wish games had scope glint work realistically, meaning you have to consider where the sun/light sources are when positioning yourself
Scopes having a bright ass LED on them whenever you aim is something games will have now for way too long
There’s a scope you get from the rifle bench in Guernsy that has no glint
Yes, pink is often used in certain camouflagues, such as in deserts. The repeated duels with the last guy were amazing. The disrespect of shooting him through the scope only to get clean domeshots both times after. That's consistency.
Well, it's period accurate but not usrd since 1944 and usefully on ships and aircraft.
13:15 A quote from a real pshyco... chill dude. I mean... it's just a game. You give me chills now... 😰
The commandos 2 soundtrack just fits sooooooo perfectly in these videos
Ohh that's not in the game itself? I thought it sounded like the Commandos vibe, thought that it had a similar soundtrack because WWII game..
Always a pleasure when you cover the best game there is
I have never played the Sniper Elite games before, this sniper invasion game mode is pretty interesting
I absolutely love the timestamps for these videos they're my favourite part
4:20
That was such a smart play
The slow walk away haha you savage
so happy to see this series get a little more juice! love these vids :)
I have never played this game, and yet I found this immensely entertaining.
I love watching your Sniper Elite videos. Cheers!
4 minute mark is the funniest thing I have seen in this game period 😂

Doing gods work out there hunting down these lazy cowards!
the kills are always funny, had a great laugh man
Love your videos. I mean this as a compliment….your voice to me sounds like Noel Fielding.
That sticky grenade was too good. I pissed myself laughing. All class.
The phrase "fish in a barrel" springs to mind

I don't get tired of watching Axis Invasion, is just so good!
I hope that Sniper Elite Resistance has Axis Invasion as good as this one

Okay, that first kill, when ya went quiet mid sentence, I just imagine your face going like •_• cause like. The timing XD
this guy has singlehadedly made sniper elite MP popular
Honestly, I'd be pretty pissed with myself if I couldn't make a player pretending to play a Nazi holding a Lee Enfield.
0:46 Vasily vs Konig ahh moment 😂
My favorite movie of all time
Always enjoy seeing sniper elite in my feed
8:00 Bro took that shot with his eyes closed.
Oooh, this is giving me serious OG Medal Of Honor vibes.😮
I can't stop laughing. This is gold
amazed how many of these players are so loud, I do almost the entire mission without being heard or seen once
5:15

Enjoying this game and none more so than the hunt for the enemy snipers
Omg finally, keep making videos with this game
Love the super elite games, always a good time
Love the chapter titles and always being a good sport. Such an incredible game mode.
Love the invasion I series. I was trying to play campaign waiting for you to invade but never had a chance 😂😂
The music be like 🐜🐜🐜🥁🥁🥁1️⃣by 1️⃣
It going to happen soon i hope
Mb93 Vs Duckwit
That will be the best battle in sniper elite history
Fun commentary! 👍
I still love how the German model is just Henry from CK:D
I love when you can play as Axis.
Great Video Love Watching These
I love these videos I wish you would play sniper elite 4!
that first one must be the most humiliating kill ewer
SNIPER ELITE HECK YEAH!
5:10 fun fact: pink worked wonderfully as a color for camouflage back in WW2, but it was only effective in a dessert environment. so definitely out of place there.
The enemy on “Close Call” had a non-zero chance of walking out with just an eyepatch.
i love playing on realistic with invasions on; it's SUPER difficult but a lot of fun.
lol that Duo in the 2nd game were so bad, as soon as his teammate dropped he ran away hahahahah
He tried to peek a sniper locked in on him 💀
I didn't even know Sniper Elite had multiplayer.
Omg yes I've been waiting for a new Sniper elite video
Love these videos!
As per, quality stuff
That snipe off was awesome
These videos are super fun.
Bro the strike force heroes music goes hard af

@16:30 isn't that the same BGM from the Colditz Castle mission on Commandos 2: Men Of Courage?
Hmm, your voice is looks like JackFrags. First time I heard, I thought this was his back up channel 😅
Anyhow, keep up the good work! 👍
After binging every single video in a week after finding the first one this is like crack
Can't wait for sniper elite resistance
I enjoyed playing campaign and setting up traps for invading snipers

Have you ever thought about playing the game and letting other people invade?
Great idea
Or try the multiplayer
Never seen it but would love to
Another banger video mate
Ps whats the outro music called again?
