History Videogame / SniperGhostWarrior3

** The [[spoiler: 23 Society SuperSoldiers]] are well-armored, explicitly superhuman opponents; they're significantly faster than normal troops and are tough enough that it takes 30 rounds or more of assault rifle fire to the torso drop them. They can even survive a sniper rifle headshot, unless you use armor-piercing ammo or a [[{{BFG}} .50 caliber rifle]], although if you use a semi-auto sniper rifle it's possible to double-tap them in the head for a kill before they can sound the alarm. Unlike regular soldiers they also carry 2 weapons at once, a futuristic assault rifle ''and'' a futuristic .50 cal sniper rifle. However, due to flaky A.I. they seldom use their sniper rifles even at long range.

* OnlyOneSaveFile: Your main menu options are "Resume" and "New Game." While playing, your options are "Return to Previous Checkpoint", "Abort Mission", and "Retry Mission." There is one checkpoint, created by AutoSave.

* JoinTheArmyTheySaid: Another bit of EnemyChatter you can overhear is "Join the revolution, they said. Be on the winning side, they said. Fucking pricks."

* AluminiumChristmasTrees: The homing smart bullet "[=DARPA=] rounds" really do exist (an electronics system inside the rather large bullet expands and contracts bands to change the bullet's air resistance and steer it mid-flight); however, they're highly experimental and not really practical for real world usage.

* VideogameCrueltyPotential: You can freely kill all the civilian without any penalties except for wasting ammo, as shown [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbSyQcyUZug in this video]].

* TitleDrop: Armazi [[spoiler: aka Robert]] refers to himself as a "Ghost Warrior" at one point. Also in the skill menu.

* HideYourChildren: Children are nowhere to be seen in the entire region. There is a token [[AvertedTrope aversion]]/[[SubvertedTrope subversion]] though - in the dam area you can find a little girl at one of the huts. And no, [ImprobableInfantSurvival [you can't even scratch her]].

* NumericalMotifs: [[spoiler: The true villains of the game are The 23 Society, an {{Expy}} of the Illuminati. The game mentions their name is a reference to the 23 phenomena, but due to their focus on genetic engineering to create augmented humans it could also easily be a reference to humans' 23 chromosome pairs as well.]]

* TheAllegedCar: One of these serves as your primary means of transportation throughout the game. It's a really old Eastern European model that breaks down surprisingly quickly if you accidentally ram into a tree or rock a couple of times, and isn't exactly going to stand up well to gunfire. On the plus side, it's fully repaired and dropped off next to you every time you fast-travel. Notably, pretty much all other cars and trucks in the game are locked, so you're stuck with your trust old jalopy.

''Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3'' is an [[WideOpenSandbox open world]] FirstPersonShooter, and the third game in the ''VideoGame/SniperGhostWarrior'' series by Polish developers CI Games (formerly City Interactive). It's notable for being the first game by CI Games with a AAA level budget. The game uses the [=CryEngine=] and seems heavily influenced by the ''VideoGame/FarCry'' series in terms of design and gameplay. Like the previous games in the series, ''Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3'' uses semi-realistic sniper mechanics such as having to compensate for bullet drop and wind deflection. New to the series is the ability to manually adjust the elevation of your scope based on distance-to-target to compensate for bullet drop.

** However in the dam area there is a token little girl who'll remain [[IprobableInfantSurvival unfazed by anything you attempt to pull out her]]. [[LordBritishPostulate Or will she?]]
