Snipers are enemies in Far Cry 2. As the name suggests, they wield Sniper rifles. With increased perception and firepower, coupled with their well hidden locations, Snipers can be deadly enemies.
Overview[]
Snipers have better perception than other mercenaries. For example, in the daytime a normal merc would not be able to detect the player hiding in the grass until the player gets close. Snipers, on the other hand, can detect the player from about fifty metres even at night. It is also important to note that snipers have less health than other mercenaries and are very easy to kill if you can get close enough.
Physical description[]
Unlike the random ethnic makeup of normal mercenaries, snipers are always Afrikaner or British. They typically wear a wide-brimmed hat and a button-down shirt. Their backup weapon is always an SMG; in Act 1, it is a MAC-10, and in Act 2, an Uzi.
