This is an abomination compared to SE4
These devs and the rest of the industry need to stop going backwards. Seriously. Who the ♥♥♥♥ thought it was a good idea to remove all the guns SE4 and ZA4 had and drip feed them to the fans AGAIN instead of releasing it as complete as it should've been. All anyone wanted was more SE4 with new maps. Launching without even having a Trench Gun, Mosin, etc was beyond insulting.

These bare bones sequels need to stop. Never pre-ordering another Rebellion game. I have it on Xbox, before some nosy ♥♥♥♥♥♥ looks in my Steam library.

p.s. I could care less about prices/editions. It's about having to wait all year for little bits of content that should've been there in the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ first place.

played since SE2, it just kept getting better, and then it collapsed.

I thought about this question seriously and finally found the answer.

If the standard version of the game gave you all the popular sniper rifles, would you still buy the sub-popular or unpopular sniper rifles released in the first, second, third, and fourth season pass?

When you already have Mosin-Nagant, m1 garand, Carcano, Winchester 1885, would you buy Win & Co 1885? !

You touch your conscience and answer honestly.

I play Survival with the Win & Co 1885 every day, not because I like it, but because I'm wasting my SE5 deluxe money by not using it.

I think the dev had made a poor decision from the very beginning. Players want different firearm models rather than customisable weapon parts. In SE4 I love using different rifles, not just because of the looks but also their different performance. Some have great firepower but lack of stability, some have good scope but low firing rate, You always have some gain and some loss, making each rifle feels unique. However, in SE5 you can customise a rifle with various settings, change the scope and the barrel, etc. Although in SE3 we could also customise the rifle, but the versatility in SE5 is much more greater. I think the dev may consider this as a plus, letting the players use their favortite rifle (the looks) with their own settings (the feel). But on the contrary, most players prefer quantity over quality. This is human nature, just like most of us think owning three single purpose PCs (one for gaming, one for work, one notebook for carrying around) is cooler than having only one PC with multipurpose. Sometimes limitation is not a bad thing.

The Win & Co rifle is not a bad design (I mean gameplay-wise), but I think it should have even greater firepower to make it standing out from the others. It maybe good in survival, but in campaign or invasion it's kinda disappointing.

SE4 may be a better game but SE5 have the key elements from SE3 and SE4.
SE5 is somthing new it can't be compared to SE4.

SE3 and SE4 are succesors to SE 1 and SE V2.
SE5 is new yet using elements that worked in previously SE games.
eg. the movement system is much more fun and isn't stiff and blocky.
Look we have upgraded rifles in SE4 we do not need that " been there done it ", lets just get the gun and do the job , we do not need work benches at all , it`s the same as sachel charges , in SE4 Karl had a limitless number , ok that is not realistic but it`s a game who wants to go looking for one, same with crow bars .

I think custom weapons are good because I tend to increase the stability and rate of fire of my sniper rifles, which helps a lot when playing survival mode. Or players who prefer stealth assassination and long-range shooting, custom weapons can provide some help.

It's a pity that you can't customize the crosshair style of individual scopes.

In addition, the advantages of SE4's weapon function unlocking are not available in the authentic plus mode. But SE5's custom weapons aren't limited to that. (except scope magnification)

The biggest problem is that there are too few weapons

The map of the campaign is not fully played and used. There are only four maps in survival mode.

According to The law of diminishing marginal utility, when players repeatedly play the same missions and use the same weapons, they gradually become bored and bored.

Therefore, adding game content and weapons regularly can prolong the enthusiasm and freshness of players for SE5. Because since the launch of the Win & Co sniper rifle, my game time on SE5 has increased.

There are not many missions in Hitman3, but they will add new missions and challenges, new clothing and weapons from time to time, so playing the same map repeatedly will become less boring.

I think this is also the direction that SE5 can develop in the future.

Some of us don't like waiting 2 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ years for the complete package. I don't keep going back to play around just because they release some little piece of content. It doesn't months to release weapons that were already part of the previous game. They're dragging it out, and it pisses me off.

Singleplayer games used to be complete much faster. I've been waiting 2 years to return to Hitman 3 after playing that at launch because I wanted to see how it ended. I'm sitting on at least 5 or 6 Xbox games right now waiting for all the content, so I can play all of it at once and be done with each game. I mostly buy them on sale when the price is right and/or the content is near done releasing. Devs are causing more and more people like me to stop pre-ordering their ♥♥♥♥ because by the time all the season pass etc content is dropped, the game is half off anyway. No point paying full price for half a game.

Whats wrong with satchels charges, crowbars and bolt cutters, I think that these are a nice little addition to the game. However using the crowbars or bolt cutters on more items than creates would b brilliant. For example using a crowbar on doors or windows that are not opened by a key, or bolt cutters on fences or toolboxes. I know u have to have limitations in a game, but surely it would add something possibly. As for guns you usually have your weapons equipped the way that suits your objectives before battle, not during it. So yes, ditch the workbenches and give us better customisation at the begging of the campaign. If by some chance we need something else then we pick up other riffles and use these for as long as needed. Obviously the more we carry the slower we should move, but why are there so many limitations.

Pretty much ditto. I loved the SE series until this joke was issued.

This is the best because it has invasion mode and looks fancy.
