Paratrooper HUNTS down Players in Axis Invasion

[@TheNathon11]

You should do some gameplay of being invaded, I want to see how you deal with some skilled invaders would be cool.

[@tfgcooloman999]

Thats a great idea

[@Scoupe400]

It’d have to be authentic or a variation of custom without radar.

[@ExpectedBoy]

This

[@orclord5719]

Theres a guy I ran into several times on xbox. He only ran on the factory level with the smelter building. He booby trapped all invader spawn points and stayed in the same spot. Everytime someone invaded, they'd die. If they accept a rety, the traps would reset.

[@DAYMAND3R3552]

Look up DuckWit that’s pretty much all he does and he has great commantary.

[@graustreifbrombeerkralle1078]

2:48 That facial expression is meme-worthy; it's really got some "this is fine"-vibes

[@jdflasky1969]

I feel like 2:45 deserves a runner-up for "derpiest face in a warzone". I'd be miffed if I got shot and this was the face of the man who killed me

[@Doomvora]

Just wanted to say that youtube randomly recommended one of your videos to me and I really like these type of videos, you're pleasant and entertaining to listen to.

[@decimation9780]

I’ve been playing Axis Invasion now for the past few hours, and he’s right, this mode is very addictive, mainly when you kill the player. There’s just a rush of excitement when you either snipe the enemy, or wait in ambush and get them when they think they’re safe. The mode is definitely enjoyable, but is definitely catered more towards those who have played the Sniper Elite series, as anyone unfamiliar would find themselves woefully unprepared for what they should be doing.

[@pieprincess5778]

I like it but I just feel Karl has too many advantages , the listen more telling you were the jaer is being able to use the phone instantly and 2 times without it spotting him like the jaer does , co op ( co op listen mode is so broken ) also the difficulty and settings being tailored to the host makes the mode vary so much

[@arcticfox037]

​@@pieprincess5778It definitely nerfs you but since you're on the 'enemy' side I'd say it's fair. Your advantage is that you're surrounded by friendlies :P Honestly it just makes it more satisfying when you manage to kill the Ally sniper/s.

[@pieprincess5778]

@@arcticfox037 nah the friendlies are so brain dead 😭, the ally be shooting at me and the soldiers are just like 🤔?

[@KopperNeoman]

@@pieprincess5778 Like MGS5's FoB defenses I guess. The guards don't care about when you spot the intruder and completely ignore you shooting him.

[@TeteBruleeFR]

6:30 You were right on him and we all missed it, that's crazy!

[@atomsk01]

The Perfect Dark music at 4:25 take me back, man. Loving your content. Keep up the great work. Salutations from this side of The Pond.

[@Dripfed]

Very much enjoy playing co-op, and operating as a spotter + sniper pair when the Jäger arrives. Totally understand the sentiment 'every game feels unique' too. With invasions on, the level gets that added excitement from time to time. Rematches with a skillful player are also a great way to learn, for when you want to switch back to being the Jäger too

[@wherethetatosat]

9:18 I think he found the flare gun near the train yard and called down an artillery strike

[@bashaaksema94]

Yep

[@frozt_beats]

10:38 Watchdogs 2 did the same thing, ive had players invade my game and it made me so scared cause i didnt expect it at all

[@UraniumReaperActual]

Watchdogs 1 did too, never had issues dealing with the players though mostly because I don't think anyone knew what they were doing lol

[@jdflasky1969]

Celebrating 300+ dead Karls with the Sniper Jäger! I think part of why this series' gotten a lot of mileage is how you generally try to take things slow, and narrate your thought process as you try to track down the enemy sniper. Having a calm and jovial disposition at all times, even when you've been outsmarted and bested, helps matters too. (Also the fact that a sizable number of opponents you're up against at least know what they're doing; seems like a good amount of Axis Invasion videos on KZbin are little more than long montages of dunking on people who don't even know which end of their rifle the bullet comes out of.) Have you considered playing as the the opposition for a video, playing the campaign with Axis Invasions turned on and taking all comers?

[@SamAshworth91]

It's weird how the MG is so much more accurate when you're holding it than when mounted.

[@12cm32]

you would expect the opposite right?

[@shifterraven3169]

love the goldeneye runway music at the end

[@number1dstapp]

I never beat the game but your videos have motavated me to go back for the pvp alone.

[@sensesfailler]

That commandos-music in the last clip .... soooo Nostalgic!

[@legolai]

Nice MG play very fun to watch

[@iansmith-official]

Love these videos, especially the challenge vids where you choose a specific loadout for a character! I'd love to see you play through the campaign with Axis Invasion enabled so you can see what it's like, could be fun sniping other players while trying to finish the objectives.

[@gumug_]

crazy pistol headshot at the start hahahaha

[@malcolmclark8733]

I usually just trawl but in this case I will make an exception. I find your "adventures" here my work stress relief. So a big thank you from me for keeping this channel going and posting your videos,

[@douglascasale8367]

At 09:10 it was flare gun and after the artillery.

[@maltevombnd]

I only remember two of those in the entire campaign. Secret weapons and Liberation I think

[@douglascasale8367]

@@maltevombnd There's another in Ferstung Guernesey. I really don't remember one in the map of 09:10.

[@thecreativeminimalist]

@@douglascasale8367 isn't there a flare gun in the bunker just before the railyard? It's somewhere in that area... quite handy for taking out the tanks by the main gate

[@Grace-Zed]

There are two flare guns in Secret Weapons. One is in the bunker like @thecreativeminimalist described. Another one is in the tank area. It is in front of the main gate.

[@apl7562]

That music on ‘let them come’ is absolutely epic 😂

[@allanturmaine5496]

It's inspirational to watch how you approach tactics. I feel like a barbarian.

[@CryogenicToast]

8:15 outplayed so hard they rage quit! Niiice

[@user-hc5yj4sm7d]

Just started playing invasion today, 8 kills, but I got humbled a lot more. Came to watch some videos for tips and see others play and yours was best by far, I subbed towards end of video and then heard the Goldeneye music and knew I'd made the right decision 😂

[@Jammer0825]

I love watching you game play!!! I subbed!!

[@TheWoWisok]

I got 0 kills as an invader, and 864 kills against invaders. I love getting invaded, the cat and mouse, who can catch the other off guard first, who will slip up first, can I set up traps in advance from being invaded to give myself the edge? This is a great one and I am excited for the eventual release of the next one!

[@wubbalubs]

Love these videos, great gameplay and commentary!

[@TheDemonGamerOfFleetStreet]

Brilliant video mate I've only recently started playing Sniper Elite 5 but haven't gotten around to invasion yet I wanna get used to the game and its DLCs I've just bought the Hitler Berghoff DLC and the Sabotage DLC I'm gonna get the rest and probably start playing Axis invasion somewhere in between it all. It looks a hella fun.

[@olivertunnah3987]

I like how one of the 2 surprise stair kills had the tag 'Fatal Error'. How ironic.

[@katze256]

You have a very nice voice. I dont like pvp myself, but invasions are very cool to watch. Subbed

[@MB93]

Thanks for the sub!

[@bensil320]

your Sniper videos are so cool, it gets tense and all

[@StandardLz]

Love this game, i just wish it was first person, the 3rd person peaking just ruining fights when ppl just peak waiting for scope glints.

[@Dorraj]

Yeah third person is always an issue with pvp games, and this game has the camera approximately 3 lightyears away from the player so it's extremely easy to peek corners. If this same concept was done but with forced first person, it would be chefs kiss

[@pieprincess5778]

You can even change the pov to make it more bigger and more cheese​@@Dorraj

[@cdgonepotatoes4219]

A possible solution to third-person peeking would be greying out the field of vision that the character can't see and excluding the ability to see characters (NPCs, players) within this zone, though preserving being able to see objects that are being moved and effects.

[@Dorraj]

@@cdgonepotatoes4219 IRRC wasn't it the game SCUM that did something like that? Where you can't see other players if your physical head wasn't able to see them? It's an interesting concept I wish more games copied, especially if they're going to be PVP.

[@cdgonepotatoes4219]

@@Dorraj I have no idea, but it's possible that it was already implemented somewhere. It's not a crazy idea, and arguably you could say such a feature has already been a staple in other genres of games as the "fog of war". Another implementation, and the one I'm referencing to the most in my head, is in the topdown game SS13. SS13 is not just one game, but some of the communities that broadly stay within the same concept do implement a line-of-sight system through this cone of vision you project wherever your character is pointing to, to limit situational awareness in the topdown format that the game is. I'm not sure why it hasn't become popular if a game already implemented it, you'd figure it would be the "spark" to push at least the modding communities in milsim games to try it.

[@christopherfranks2602]

What's nice about the dark souls style multiplayer, in this, is that even when you have multiple people it doesn't feel completely out of your favour. Although I wish the X-ray vision wasn't a thing.

[@esmeecampbell7396]

That MG was hilarious, I think they genuinely don't believe an invader would use it so think you're an AI and they can just crawl around undetected

[@RyanGoslingthestonecoldsigma]

I know it’s a bit late but I’m pretty sure the audio at around 9:45 was an air strike called in with the flare gun

[@BigBoy-mt2zt]

[@TheRedThirst]

I can’t believe how much fun I have with invasions and I’m kicking myself for putting it off this long… being invaded though, that’s nerve racking hahahaha

[@FlamingNinja]

It’s definitely fun playing as the Jäger, trying to do a stealth run without getting spotted during an invasion is a lot harder, lol.

[@Ioreck]

Agreed, I am a total hypocrite, I love invading (over 300 kills now) but I hate being invaded so I usually turn them off when I'm playing campaign, lol.

[@CroAce97]

Best sniper elite game wish there was axis invasion offline as well 😮 online is a blast

[@DannyDarko999]

Love this game...so underrated

[@yaboyjosh7746]

Welcome to the party pal 🙂 600 confirmed karl kills here.

[@angryeliteultragree6329]

The helmet really helps you blend in. Always wear one.

[@KyrosT_]

I find it difficult to find players in axis invasion sometimes. I wish they made it to where you could play this in offline mode and the Ai allied sniper just moved from objective to objective in a random order each time. Infinite replayability if this was a reality and you could also up the difficulty for the allied sniper. That would be a blast to play when there aren’t people playing with axis invader enabled.

[@thedudewhoabides69]

Thanks for the laughs yet again! I really enjoy your vids good sir. One suggestion for a future vid - maybe you could try invasion on authentic difficulty? I recently finished SE5 on authentic, went back to SE4 and did the same and I gotta say the games' aren't half as good on lower difficulties. Sure they're nice to have for people new to the series but anyone enjoying these should definitely try the harder modes. Stripping away all the crutches makes it much more immersive and tense.

[@darklight4978]

This is the kind of mode I was hoping to get in Hitman 3. Imagine invading another’s game and trying to work out who they are behind the disguise

[@hyperkaioken4982]

Putin is a sniper now

death loop the whole game is about this mood

[@Volfmech]

This mode is very addictive as the invader. Racked up 500 kills and then said to myself I'd stop playing (Well that was a lie) Now I'm creeping past 1000 kills 😂

[@AngrySquirrel3072]

Haha, nice

[@tobyburns9994]

How was there a artillery flare in campaign?

Do you ever play with the host settings on? It would be cool to see you invade a player in authentic difficulty and have to use the different settings.

[@jdflasky1969]

I don't usually do this, but I never get the opportunity, so FIRST

[@tfewolf9410]

Love invasion mode, but I wish you could select the difficulty you invade. Really prefer authentic, but I refuse to play cadet or anything with no bullet drop

[@Ioreck]

"Blow up the barrel," did you know that the invader cannot blow up explosives? I tried on Spy Academy, two co-opers were right next to an explosive barrel, I shot it and... Nothing happened. I think only the campaign player bullets can "ignite" the explosive ordenance.

I've enjoyed playing this game a lot, had some real funny moments and some real "Why?" moments I actually invaded a guy who was cheating. Not only had he trapped all the phones, he'd manually placed several mines at all of them and when I refused to play his game he shot me through several walls.

[@LeanAndMean44]

The walls were shot through with AP ammo. There’s almost nothing AP ammo can’t penetrate in this game. So he was just abusing all the game mechanics but no cheating. If he would cheat he would be flying across the map/teleporting or kill you on spawn or something.

[@JimKandol]

@@LeanAndMean44 He shot me from the other side of the map through multiple walls with an smg. He kept missing. It was on the easiest difficulty setting.

[@NiggaBootyMuncher2000]

I mean it's the fifth game in a long-running franchise and the guy getting invaded has a built-in "focus mode" where he just gets wallhacks so, idk. I don't think the game is trying to be "tactical" mate.
