How to unlock the True sniper achievement in Sniper Elite 3 - Definitive Guide

*Info* Rebellion patch the KI months after I create this walkthrough. The KI is now really better and harder, keep this in mind. The walkthrough is not 100% accuracy anymore :(

Mission 8 is a mix of Stealth Walkthrough (Canyon) and normal stealth "kill all" Playthrough (Hangar). In the Hangar are so many Enemies, and you must kill all and so much can go wrong. You will be detect to 100% there. If you fast enough with the Welrod, it is not a big problem, otherwise you need a really good aim and a good coverpoint. If you have any problems to follow my Walk / Playthrough for the 8th Mission, simple kill all Enemies with Sound Masking, loot the Bodies and go further. Thats the only other easy Option for this Mission.

Facts about my Solo Walkthrough Videos:

- the most time full Stealth
- The routes have been tested multiple times
- The routes are quick and easy (except the 8th Mission with 48min, all other <16min)
- Straight to the target / end of a Mission
- One continuous run (No Cuts!)
- All Cutscenes skipped to avoid spoilers.
- No commentary.

Mission 1 - Siege of Tobruk

Mission 2 - Gaberoun

Mission 3 - Halfaya Pass

Mission 4 - Fort Rifugio

Mission 5 - Siwa Oasis

Mission 6 - Kassarine Pass

Mission 7 - Ponts du Fahs Airfield

Mission 8 - Ratte Factory

Great guides so far. Can you confirm if there are any auto save points or do I have to complete each mission without dying?

ive just got to mission 8 using these, some great tips although on some parts i have had to improvise to suit my play style to make things easier for me. just the last one to go which im aiming to just shoot as much as i can!!

also to answer Gouldy1972 - there are no auto save points, you have to complete each mission without dying

On mission two I don't get how you go straight to the front of that temple place to get the last general and not get seen by the guy in the guard hut on the left past the vehicle at the end.

Every damn time he gets me!

On mission 2, you place land mines and dynamite on the road. How do you set the dynamite without throwing it. Everytime I try, I throw it and it glitches through the ground, the guard in the hut hears me and kills me.

Great guides!! Followed them all closely and it helped a lot. The only one I really had trouble with was mission 8. I could not get the timing down so I just cleared the whole level using sound masking. I still used your vantage points and trap set ups which helped a lot even in the hangar

Many thanks for these videos! Although the AI is harder now, your videos have been very helpful to my partner and me. Before we start a level, I do a thorough watch of your video and make detailed notes. It never *quite* goes as planned, but it's close enough to work. Also, we get a kick out of the early placement of explosives to take out vehicles without any additional effort. :-)

Update: This glitch has now been patched but I
would still highly recommend that you still do this in coop as it's much easier then in SP.

CAN ONLY BE DONE IN CO-OP

I found this over on another site posted by a user and i thought i would share it here! ;)

-

I found a glitch (sorry if this was discovered before) that makes Authentic difficulty played in co-op really easy. This doesn't work in solo campaign.

You need to do this:

Multiplayer -> Create private game -> Deathmatch

With this setup:

Score limit: none
Time limit: none
Ballistic realism: simple
Tactical assistance: full
Dagame type: normal
Rifles only: no

Start the game. Play a few seconds, then exit. Now you go to co-op, put any mission you like in authentic and play. You'll play in authentic but with the settings of deathmatch, so is much easier (radar, no wind, etc). You even have checkpoints. Your partner will also have this.

I can confirm you get the Authentic achievement with this, for both players.

-

He also posted this.

-

You lose the glitch if you die and have to restart a level, but your partner keeps it. If you finish a mission without retries you'll have the glitch in the next mission also.

So, if you lose it, exit co-op and repeat the steps. And yes, everytime you want to play you must do it.


-


And again i didn't find this method.

Has anyone tried just completing the last mission on Authentic to see if this unlocks?

I figure I'd ask since the game is clearly buggy and other games I.e. Wolfenstein, give the higher difficulty achievements after completion of the just the last mission/chapter?

Some tips for co-op:
Stick together, makes it easier to pick up your friend when they die.
If there are no enemies around, and your team mate is injured, just shoot them in the head and pick them up. This saves a med kit for use in urgent situations

I found out how to get it to work 100% of time.

Load up just like the solution says, soon as your 3-4 second countdown to spawn in appears start spamming A. Soon as player 1 spawns, exit game. If done fast enough, player 2 shouldn't have had time to load in.

I did it 4 times on Wednesday worked every time.

Then we did a deadmatch and the host won.
Then started again a Deadmatch and quit and started the game and it worked.

I should also add that inviting from the game (with cn_LT) never seems to work. You have to invite from the Friends or Party app.

Short version:
1) Glitch only works (fully) on the disc version
2) Any non-team private match works to glitch authentic (we've used distance king and deathmatch)
3) You must tinker with every setting when making the private multiplayer match. Change every option at least once and then back to where you want it
4) Invites to the game must be sent from the Party app, and the app must be snapped at the time of invite

Hey Guys,

I can confirm: This glitch still works! I did the first seven levels with my partner without the glitch because I thought it has been patched, but I did what the OP said and I tried something I read on another site. He said that he changed the settings and directly changed it to default again.

Afer that the glitch worked on the first time, so try this out.

By Mario163 on 10 Apr 2015 06:27
The glitch works to varying degrees depending on the version of the game you have.

I have the vanilla disc and this glitch works perfectly, with the full radar, enemy awareness icons, no bullet drop, etc.

My coop buddy has the digital ultimate edition, and by performing the same steps he can only get a couple of the glitched items to stick. No minimap, no tagging enemies in the binoculars, no awareness icons, but the full stock of 65 bullets (since you're only supposed to have 30 on Authentic) and no bullet physics.

The bullet physics are easily the hardest part about the game, so even having that much stick was a huge help that got us through missions a lot easier.

Done this with a friend a few days ago (accidentally stumbled into it). Worth noting you don't need to actually start the MP match, just set it up and invite your co op partner then back out. Also if i'm remembering right you only lose the glitch if you choose load last save after dying. Selecting to restart the level should keep the glitch in place without having to back out and do all the set up again.

@infamouz2401 The host won't have the glitch no more but the other guy will. If you die at the start of a mission just back out and repeat the glitch. If you work well enough with your partner and revive each other there should be little problems as this game is pretty easy with this glitch wink

The glitch is not patched.

After reading all the different methods to make it work, none worked for me.

How me and my co-op partner did it was like this.

The host starts a private deathmatch with these settings:
Score limit: none
Time limit: none
Ballistic realism: simple
Tactical assistance: full
dagame type: normal
Rifles only: no

Invite your partner and start the game, both spawn in. run around for a bit (like 10 seconds) then the host quits, this is important, we tried making player two quit but it never worked. This should put your partner in the lobby again. He/she stays there.

The host then hosts a co-op game on whatever level on authentic difficulty and invite the other player in. Ready up and start the game. Now both players should have a mini map and full tactical assistance. If both of you die the host will lose it but the second player will keep them.

I realise that this guide is very similar to Mars. I feel that I need to tell people that it is important that the host quits and this is definitely not patched.

I hope this helps and I am not 100% sure it will work for you. Like I've said I've seen different methods and this one worked 100% for me. If you leave a negative vote let me know why.

Edit: I've seen a video on Youtube in which player two is the one that quits although this never worked for me.

My buddy ShadowBlade1488 and I could never get it to work no matter who hosted. But we were getting extra ammo and seemed like more health so we kept trying to do the glitch even though it wasn't working. But then one time we started Siwa Oasis and it worked somehow!

We tried all sorts of combinations to try to replicate it but could never get it to work again. Frustrated we both just started looking to see if we could find anything else on the internet that would help. And I found something...

Over on playstationtrophies.org user CrazyRap posted this:

Try moving the settings in the private match a few times (left and right)

I didn't choose the same settings as OP mentioned, i quickly clicked left and right multiple times for every setting and then started the game.
THIS IS THE KEY TO GETTING THIS TO WORK.

As soon as I started flicking the settings before selecting what I wanted and going into the match, we got the glitch to work every time when we entered co-op.

So if you're struggling with this, try flicking the settings and see what happens.

As it is still very unclear for many people on how to do the glitch exactly, I have made an instruction video on how to use it. It is very simple.
Just follow every step and this WILL work for you!

Not so much a solution as it is a helpful tip. In coop, when you go down, your partner can get you back up which grants you full health. This can be exploited on Authentic due to the fact that friendly fire is turned on. So whenever you need you need some health and are in a safe spot, get your partner to down you and get you back up. This way, you don't have to waste a precious medkit. This tip is a bit cheesy but it helped my partner and I tremendously getting through the campaign. laugh

Legitimate Method:
Authentic difficulty is easily one of the most potentially frustrating difficulties that you will play in a long time. The difficulty includes:

  • No HUD
  • No Radar
  • Realistic Bullet Drop
  • Wind
  • No Focus Meter
  • Reduced Health
  • Not immune to your own traps
  • Reduced ammunition
  • Fearless enemies
  • No saving or checkpoints! (Dying restarts the level)

If you play the game as it is supposed to be played, it will be nearly impossible. When playing on this difficulty, the game becomes all about STEALTH. You will rarely engage in any battle unless completely necessary. If you must shoot, make sure you mask the sounds of your shot so that enemies don't hear you. You must also make sure to only take out enemies if they are isolated from other enemies.

It is also recommended that you leave this for the 2nd playthrough so that you know what is required during each objective, and so that you know the map layout as well as enemy movement patterns. Also, watch out for snipers, they won't miss and take you out very quickly.

Lastly, many players may find more success during this difficulty if playing in co-op with another human player. Communication is key, and practice makes perfect. May patience be with you.

Glitch Method:
This method can ONLY be done in co-op and may be patched in the near future.

Go to "Multiplayer" then "Create Private Game" and choose "Deathmatch", with the following settings:

  • Score limit: None
  • Time Limit: None
  • Ballistic Realism: Simple
  • Tactical Assistance: Full
  • Damage Type: Normal
  • Rifles Only: No

Start the game, play for a few seconds and quit out. Now switch to co-op, select the mission that you would like to play on Authentic, and start the mission. The game will have saved your settings from the deathmatch, so the game should be significantly easier, because there's no wind, bullet drop and the game will even include radar and checkpoints for you! This is applied to both people in a co-op session.

Additionally, if you die or have to restart a level, you will lose these settings and the game will revert back to traditional Authentic settings. If you finish a mission without retries, it will follow you to the next mission. If you lose it though, you will have to start back from the beginning of this method's description.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Glitched Achievement Note: The game will only unlock difficulty achievements if all levels have been completed at least 1 time on the same difficulty. If you switch during your playthrough, you will have to revisit levels and play them again in order to unlock these achievements. The game will not stack any difficulties unless all 8 missions were completed on the same difficulty. If you switch difficulties during your playthrough, you will have to go back and replay levels in order to unlock any of these achievements.
