Sniping Mission: Difference between revisions

A '''Sniping Mission''' is when the player is tasked with using a [[Sniper Rifle|long-range weapon]] to attack far-away targets.

 

 

Many [[Boss Battle|boss fights]] incorporate sniping elements, such as famously those in the ''[[Metal Gear]]'' series. This might occur if you are attacked by an enemy sniper and try to [[Beat Them At Their Own Game]].

* In one mission of ''[[Mission: Impossible]] 64'', you provide sniper cover for Ethan in a train station.

 

* The duels with Sniper Wolf in ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]''. The second, though, is easier if you use your remote guided missile instead.

* The {{spoiler|second}} fight against {{spoiler|Vamp}} in ''[[Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty]]''. Different from the other two because {{spoiler|Vamp}} does not have a sniper rifle, he is instead attacking your escort with his knives, and of course if she dies it's game over. It's not a very difficult boss battle, though.

** It's also entirely pointless. In what is the series' best case of ''[[The Battle Didn't Count]]'', {{spoiler|even after Raiden successfully shoots Vamp several times in the face and prevents Emma's health bar from even reaching the half way mark, she is critically wounded, and you are taken to her death scene. Way to waste your time.}}
