I can confirm that Italians are, in fact, in Sniper Elite 3. This is logical since the Italian Army played a fairly large role in the North African campaign.

I have not come across Italians in SE4 yet.

So far I am liking the openness of the missions....I am still on the first one and have been coming from many different angles.  Still a lot more to do.

I understand that the Wehrmacht basically controlled Italy until the end of 1943 but to not encounter Italian troops...IN ITALY...makes my brain hurt.

But this is a good thing that the player can encounter them in #3. If I like #2 (should be able to try it out in the next few days) then I will get #3, on sale of course.

Got some time with it tonight....still way early, but generally feels the same as past versions.  Although in first mission, feels like its one man against an entire German army:)  But still loads of fun for me.

To further this, I am only partly way through the 1st level and I already have 59 kills......my sniper is the most feared soldier in the war!  Lot of different kill methods....quite a few double kills with a single shot, blowing them up by hitting fuel or a truck, dropping a crane on people's heads, new melee animations, etc.....death comes in many ways.

Incidentally, I think Medal of Honor: Breakthrough involved fighting at least a few Italians in the latter part of the campaign. (Unlike the other MoHons, that expansion's campaign was extremely focused with lots of continuity between chapters. The first several chapters, set in North Africa, dealt with the Afrika Korps and was set after the Italians had folded I think.)

Really been hooked on this for last couple of days, brings back memories from Sniper Elite 2.  The openness of the environment allows for many different approaches where you really need to think things through.  The maps have been interesting and I like all the side quests that come with it.  It takes me 1-2 hours per mission and I have attempted to complete all the goals.  I wish I could be a little more stealth but there are SSSOOO many enemies on the map, I find it nearly impossible unless you show great patience and can isolate people.  Just way too tempting to open up on them with guns a blazing:)

So when does Sniper Elite 5 come out:)  Maybe time for the Pacific?

I think 4.....and I believe there are a total of 10.  I am averaging around 2 hours per mission since there are side missions to complete as well.

Completed the full game today...only the second game I have ever fully completed and the first one was sniper 2.

Was puzzled however...my service record said I was only 72% completed with the campaign, even though I completed all missions and side quests.  There was a total of eight missions and took me around 18 hours.

Bring on Sniper 5!  Maybe Pacific or something like that.
