if you look carefully at 9:30 and onward you'll notice a splintering of rock from the bricks on the left of the slow-mo, the allied sniper took a shot that just barely missed our counter-sniping protagonist
If you look close during the bullet cam, you can see the allied sniper's bullet pass too, look just to the left of the bullet the camera is following. "Karl's" rifle ejects the spent casing right as the bullet hits too. That was one of the most detailed sniper elite slow-mo's I've ever seen haha.
makes me think of that scene in Ghost in the Shell SAC 2nd Gig when Major and Saito were at a standoff and Saito's shot grazes the Major's cheek while he takes one to the eyeball. What a close game!
@@leningrad4268 That's just insane bro this alone makes redownload the game again. it looks like Karl quickly dispatched 2 bullets in quick succession with his M1 Carbine. The first one hits the wall, the second just passing by the invader's bullet. I remember being crazy about this axis invasion mode when the game first came out, but the longer wait times kinda killed the vibe for me.
Honestly, still trying to figure out whats scarier… hoping into an invasion where the host killed everybody, or seeing they completed 90% of the missions and not a single cold body
It's honestly my favorite way to play. My hundreds of hours in Splinter Cell prepared me well. Nothing is more satisfying than sneaking through an entire level without killing anybody except for the targets and getting the odd "How?!" from the invaders. It's great.
Scarier is the dude that sneaks the entire thing without killing anybody. Boring and dull is the dude who killed everybody in a level and is simply waiting in the perfect camping spot while they've set up a minefiled with corpses and Teller Mines, because at that point you are just walking right into an obvious and unfair ambush. Bonus if they happen to be a Co-op session with one of the Allied forces in a fucking phone 24/7. You could say that the first one also is an unfair ambush if they managed to sneak past everything without killing, but at the least you can commend the guy's dedication to being stealthy.
I'm so gobsmacked by how oblivious some of these people are. That first guy had zero awareness. When I get invaded, I'm on high alert the whole time, Focusing to keep an eye out for the invader. These people are like "oh, an enemy player. La de da, I'mma just keep going and pretend they aren't here."
@@MultiPurposeReviewer That's because a lot of people play it like a typical third-person shooter and don't pay attention to their surroundings. You'd be disgusted with how many times I've lured people into traps or ambushes because they just didn't look out for them.
I tend to enjoy using the spotter skin because it uses several items to break up the shape of the human face, which means that if you pick a good spot, the player you are hunting might not even register that they’ve seen you.
@@MB93 If you look VERY closely about when the bullet is halfway across the way during the killcam, you can actually see Karl firing a second shot and the bullet passing your bullet, just slightly to the left 9 oclock position of your bullet, its only there for a split second but if you slow down you can clearly see it.
I agree, it's such a great channel. I like that you can kind of just listen and don't need to watch completely. I usually have it playing when I'm working on the farm
I do this too, although I disguise as a generic infantryman. I move by walking until NPCs start running and I try to walk in a "programmed" pattern to blend in.
Recently got myself Sniper Elite 5 because of these videos. Never played any of the games and I purely got it for the Axis Invasion and I got to say its so much fun. Thank you very much for this
Pretty much, everybody on this game is terrible and play on the easiest difficulty and also leave as soon as you start invading them, which is stupid because you have an option to turn it off
@@dja1647 well if they’re the type to play on easy, good on em for knowing what they want But if they’re still unable to fend off multiple invasions after being invaded presumably many times, it’s no surprise they havent found the disable setting yet
I unlocked everything for the Axis Invader, it was a damn fun mode and a great way to spice up the campaign gameplay, especially with coop. The times I've eliminated both players who were in coop was so satisfying.
Thanks to you i tried sniper elite 5 again and went for axis invasion and its indeed fun as fuck thanks man for the motivation to try it out by seeing all the fun you were having currently on 22 kills as invader so 100 is not too far away
Yeh, but the thing is most of the time the players you’re versing aren’t very good at the game so they probably wouldn’t think to look for that plus blending in with npc’s isn’t a good idea considering the fact that people play this game mainly just to get cool snipes cams well I do anyway
It might be a pain to record, but it would be interesting to see you play from the prey side. I'm not sure how many people are still invading, but it would be neat to see you deal with invaders as Karl. Maybe you could get subscribers involved as I think there's now an option to invite friends to invade.
I clicked on this video because I saw the buzz word “NPC” and because I thought it had something to do with Escape from Tarkov. I stayed to watch because this game looks interesting, and your style of gameplay/commentary is nice. You remind me of JackFrags. Which might just be “British Gaming Channel”. You’re quieter, more calming. Don’t know what else.
I gotta admit i dont subscribe to a channel ive only watched like 3-5 videos on but when he mentioned he only had 22k subs?! Insta subscription. Honestly the production, quality and personality of this channel made me think he had at the VERY least 200k. Like I said insta subscription!
I found you as a random suggestion on YT a few months ago, and since then I've watched *every* Axis invasion video from you. I also enjoy your BF sniping, got me playing BF1 again.
My favorite thing as invader is the training yard workbench that lets you use mines. You don't get as many as Karl & Co, but it's enough to get some devious cross-map kills. One time I even baited a duo to my position by killing one then pretending to flee. The other guy took chase right into my trap. It's so hilarious.
New niche content channel I didn't know I wanted acquired. Judging by the number of views on this video versus the number of subscribers, I'm not the only one this was recommended to.

Ghillie suit is way better
Sniper outfit draws attention because of what a nuisance the NPC versions of them arez so the priority is to take them out
The casual slide into the room at 5:15 and shooting him in the face made me actually lol.
That was me he killed haha. It was my first game
5:18 THATS ME! It was my first game haha
Literally skipped straight to the final boss lol
9:36
I like how, if u look, u can see the bullet actually clipped the side of the hole and broke off some rock. Das how tight the shot was.
that was the OTHER guys shot.
Yeah that was actually the other guy's shot, I had no idea he got that close to killing me...

Imagine a Sniper Elite Game in the Universe of:
- Star Wars
- Halo
- District 9
- Spellbreak
- Rock of Ages
-5D Time Travel Chess
You can tell if Carl is near when you see your character tense up when you walk
Thanks to you i tried sniper elite 5 again and went for axis invasion and its indeed fun as fuck thanks man for the motivation to try it out by seeing all the fun you were having currently on 22 kills as invader so 100 is not too far away
Enjoy!
Gets hit by a motorcycle: Hah you little rascal.
I wish you could go in with just one gun and not all 3. It's hard to blend in with the NPCs when you're carrying an arsenal no NPC does.
Yeh, but the thing is most of the time the players you’re versing aren’t very good at the game so they probably wouldn’t think to look for that plus blending in with npc’s isn’t a good idea considering the fact that people play this game mainly just to get cool snipes cams well I do anyway

Yeah I really need to get around to that at some point, it's been on the to-do list for a while!
That last kill was smooth af
Hell yeah! A new video right when I was looking for one!
12:45 God you can't imagine how nostalgia hit me there with the Commandos 2 Soundtrack, I was so immersed and then I listened it, thanks!!
Dude same, literally on the first violin note I immediately knew it was Castle Colditz ost, truly a master piece of a game
I love these videos dude. Get em coming. You've got me back into Sniper Elite I just wish I could find more Coop games.
I clicked on this video because I saw the buzz word “NPC” and because I thought it had something to do with Escape from Tarkov.

i stumbled yesterday on the sniper elite train .. so pretty late. Youre awesome ! Subbed thanks for the content!
Welcome!
2:54 the music here perfectly matches your reaction 😆
Imagine if you could dismiss an npc and then take their position, so then you look more like an npc since you’re SUPPOSED to be there
Thanks for keeping on with SE, it's appreciated. Keep 'em coming
Workers&Resources background music, SE Invader mode, poggers combi
1:55 Talk about blowing someone's back out!
Literally my first thought! 🤣
14:27 his escape was just like in action movies, imagine if after the explosion it died with style by doing a cartwheel and sitting on a chair.
Honestly so cool to see you back on sniper elite
Thanks for bringing me back to this game G
love it when one of these vids pops up in the feat
Excellent . Cheers my man. And Well done on the 20k
Thank you!
This was the first video I've watched, and now im watching each every one of them. Excellent work, sniper hunter!
You've earned one nore subscriber.
love the vids keep it up you've got such a funny way of doing it absolutely violated the first guy
That first hunt looks like you’d be lighting a ciggie as he shuffles around on that mine you dropped
love this content made me get back into this game
Really hope they carry on/expand on axis invasion in the next one it's such a fun gamemode
Love these videos mate, recently come across your videos. Very entertaining keep it up!
Dude keeping doing vids you’re gonna blow up !!
I love your content, keep up your great work :)
Appreciate it!
Congrats on 20k! Super glad to have found ya, your videos are always nice to watch, no matter what game it is.
Awesome! Thank you!
Sniper Elite is one of my favourite series. I never play this mode, though. I just like the campaign. Still fun to watch, though.
That last one, was pure Bliss to watch
a colab with you and frankieonpc would be a dream come true, love the content as always MB
Great video! I wish this game were more popular, every time I try to invade I either can’t find a match or the host immediately quits
Still waiting to invaded by you xD keep up the good work, loving the videos
yknow you are good to a game when you triangulate the enemy position by the pattern of bodies/items they scattered around
I didn't know people still played this the other day. I tried playing it, and the wait time is ridiculous
Great video as usual. Here's to 20k and many more!
Man I love these videos
Hard to call you an NPC when the outfit goes so hard
you are good at this dude. i forgot this game existed tbh.. i have a new youtuber to watch now so thanks for da content 👍
He’s back! Heck yeah. I hope they add more customization in sniper elite 6.
I gotta admit i dont subscribe to a channel ive only watched like 3-5 videos on but when he mentioned he only had 22k subs?! Insta subscription. Honestly the production, quality and personality of this channel made me think he had at the VERY least 200k. Like I said insta subscription!
I love your videos your really fun to watch when down. Keep up the amazing work and I hope to see you grow!
I appreciate it, cheers!
Always a good day when you upload 😊
Congrats on 20k! I’ll admit I’m mostly here for the sniper elite but I really appreciate the chill vibes in all your videos
Great video!
Did you queue the Commandos 2 music on 13:02 or is it part of the game?
That was a nostalgia trip haha
at 9:38 if you slow it down to .25x speed u can see both bullets side by side one another. What a shot!
I found you as a random suggestion on YT a few months ago, and since then I've watched *every* Axis invasion video from you. I also enjoy your BF sniping, got me playing BF1 again.
Glad you're enjoying it mate
poor gooiercheese372, he just couldnt catch a break
I'm gooiercheese372!
Just picked this game up on Steam sale. You make it look way too fun to pass up.
My favorite thing as invader is the training yard workbench that lets you use mines. You don't get as many as Karl & Co, but it's enough to get some devious cross-map kills.
One time I even baited a duo to my position by killing one then pretending to flee. The other guy took chase right into my trap. It's so hilarious.
i was in withdrawal from axis invasion, tysm
I love that combo of weapons and that skin 🔥🔥
Utterly random grenade kill FTW. Excellent as usual.
Nice to hear the music of workers and resources chief
Good spot!
If you use focus it shows roughly on your radar the direction of the other sniper. When you're close to each other your entire radar turns red
14:20 The last part was like "A surprise to be sure, with a bang."
i love invasion mode, its scarier than the campaing, because you are the hunter and the hunted at the same time
the last guy didn't deserve that XD
And he even hid behind a wall lol
Thank you for another SE
My newest type of drug. As addictive as fentanyl. Congrats for 20k
He is growing !
You've earned yourself a new sub. Cheers from the California Mojave my dude.
That last kill was awesome lol
watched for the headshots. stayed for the commandos 2 ost
13:37 I knew i recognized that music, thats the theme for Colditz Castle from Commandos 2; Men of Courage.
Nice catch :)
Axis Invasion is amazing... Such a great game mode
Congrats on the 20k subs! :)
Thank you!!
Ahhh so you're GooierCheese! We've encountered each other a few times😂😂
Great video btw🔥
I just wish all these Sniper Elite videos were on a playlist
5:18 insert intro to James Bond here
clicked on the vid and saw he had 20K... I know this boutta be stimulating af (20k is the best)
That last one was clutch
Bro the first kill though....... I could never do that.... you got lucky
just casually playing works and resources music in the background xD
This guy really sounds like tomographic wth?!
This actually looks dope. Seems live I've got my next obscure pvp fixation to fill the void ds3 left.
Thats my favorite disguise to play.
The Commandos soundtrack is really the cherry 🍒 on top! I've just picked this up a bit because it was on gamepass.
I just finished the story i want to give Invasion a go now , nice vids.
Found you channel just a day late, got me wanting to buy the game but steam sale is over now :(
Great video! Helped cheer me up.
first guy went flying lmaoo

You can equip AP ammo if you have it, as well as sub sonic, non lethal and a bunch of others.
