‘Sniper Elite 5’ Player Pulls Off Ultimate Forbidden Shot, Gets Achievement For It
Sniper Elite has a strong fanbase that revolves around shooting people with a sniper gun. This is a simple concept, but it’s gratifying.
Although that’s not the original premise, it’s something everyone who has jumped into the WWII shooter at least once has attempted. You’re lying if you insist that you haven’t.
The latest game in the series, Sniper Elite 5, was released on May 26th with good reviews. Our own Will McCue gave it a 6/10. One poor soldier, who could not give the game a positive review, managed to get off the virtual mortal coil by having his testicles shot through his body by a speeding bullet. Please excuse me. I will lay down in the dark and weep for an hour.
HerbieErbs uploaded a Reddit post that shows the Xray kill cam associated with the series. It shows our poor grunt getting his plums sucked in great detail. If you have the stomach for it, check out this video.
The award itself was “Die Nussknacker Sweet!” for shooting someone in the testicles over 100 yards. Unfortunately, they don’t award anything for making their jewels. The comments to the post were both supportive and encouraging, as you can see. “He only felt it for a second, but the start of that second was worse than the finish…” stated someusernameblahblah, while CoolHipsterName said, “that’s it, I’m downloading this game tonight, lol. It looks so much fun.
It doesn’t matter what team you are on. Shooting beanbags at a bloke would be considered bad sportsmanship. This is even more true if he’s bent over and in a vulnerable position. Except that the bloke wasn’t Hitler, then he could be awarded an achievement for doing exactly what. You can, Sniper 5. You won’t be 100% of the game without it. Mein Gott.
