Hi love this game but i was hoping to see a super sniper rifle with super long range zoom scope with large ammo capicity but most of all with a silencer none of the rifles has a silencer attachment something well worth thinking about as i am sure everyone who has this game would want this too.
Hopely will see it added in the next patch or in a future DLC.

Good Hunting.

You do have supressed ammo, and if there was unlimited silencer, game would be too easy. You need to learn when to shoot (use sounds to cover from rifle firing), and when to use pistol or melee enemy. You also can find many noice sources in game, generators can be used to give pretty much permanent cover. Don't only think its about sniping in this game. You're given much more tools than just rifle.

Have to agree with Veronika.
When I get a game with "Sniper Elite" in its title, I expect to imagine myself a sniper, snipe enemies, snipe everything I see without any borders.
When its coming to sniping in SE4, you get 10 ammo and they make you do everything BUT sniping, encouraging you melee, pistol using and the likes.
Yet I understand the reason behind, developers messed "smart sniping" and "no sniping".
Whatever I say, ignore me, I have great fun playing with my friend duo so we become butchers and bring death without even hiding on elite difficulty mode.

If you kill everyone who might hear the shots you can be as loud as you like. Also, if you must fire loud then fire either only when another sound will disguise your rifle or only shoot once.

Or just have a good old fashioned shootout and kill everything in sight that tries kill you.

None of that existed during WWII, where this game is set. The kind of Sniper Rifle you're imagining came into existance in the late '70s with rifles like the PSG1 and AWP.

Sniper rifles were still a new idea, having only become an accepted military weapon 20 years earlier. Scopes were extremely basic, most of them were limited to 3X or 4X magnification and weren't adjustable. Supressors were only just beginning to appear, and were extremely primitive and unreliable. The only effective silenced weapons fired pistol rounds, like the De Lisle carbine.

i always thought the word sniper elite means just that to be the best and use any equipment to be the best and if that means a silencer then so be it as i like to have every advantage possible to kill my enemy without being detected as in real life silencers did exist during WW2 so i hope it will be released as a DLC so then those who feels the same as i do can buy it and those who don't won't need to buy it so it's a case of horses for courses as the saying goes.

Integral silencers, yes, as in HDM, Welrod, Sten, Delisle Commando Carbine. And as Wolfey pointed out, all those firearms used pistol ammo. In fact, the Delisle Commando Carbine was designed to take Colt M1911 .45 Cal magazines.

I have to question whether you've even played the game. Basic silencers are already available for nearly all weapons, and there are integrally suppressed weapons like the Welrod, HDM and De Lisle Carbine.

Fun fact; .45 ACP was chosen because a standard .45 loading was subsonic, meaning the British war effort didn't need to create a supply system for a new subsonic calibre or loading and SOE Commandos could use pre-existing magazines and standard issue ammo.
