Sniper shootout version 2? Anyone know what's the difference to the first version?

 

The zoom feature is a great addition. Should be able to see how many houses are in a specific area before jumping in now.

Not sure the difference till I play it

 

By now I think we should know exactly how many house there are in each location haha

Had a quick go with @Prodi-Cal_Son on Sniper shootout v2 after GTA night finished. We won it as well!

 

Not sure I can see differences. There are Hunting Rifles and Snipers avaiable everywhere.

 

I'd suggest you pick up 2 hunting rifles or bolt snipers so when you're in a fight you can alternate firing 2 bullets far quicker than waiting for reload to happen.

 

Also, in a 1v1 close fight your pickaxe could probably be the best weapon. The last guy nearly took us both out with his whilst we're trying to hit a sniper shot from 1 yard.
