Pros
Pro Slo-mo x-ray kill shots
Sniper Elite 3 has a slo-mo x-ray kill shot camera that shows in graphic detail the kill shots of the game.
Pro Online multiplayer
There are a few multiplayer modes in the game that allow for player vs. player.
Pro Eight large stages to play through
There are eight very large stages the player can play through, each with multiple objectives to illustrate progression on each map.
Pro Direct control
Allows player to take a direct control of a vehicle, or infantryman (followed by their squad if any), which allows player to take the most important shots themselves, or to park their units into more pristine spots. Even if AI seems to fare well on its own, the more elaborate plans can be conducted by simply using this function.
Pro Fully destructible environments
This can make for a visceral feel as well as an immersive one as everything in the game can be blown to bits.
Pro Punishing
Definitely one of the more time and effort requiring RTS, which you cannot simply take off the shelf and do well in, without past experience. Bullets hurt, weapons are fairly accurate, yet do miss their marks occasionally, and explosions are going to demolish infantry.
Cons
Con Non intelligent A.I.
Like a lot of stealth games, all it takes is getting enough distance from a guard to make them forget they ever saw the player. This pulls the player out of the immersion of the game seeing such a non intelligent A.I.
Con Non-existent story and unbalanced
The story is the same for all factions, same layout, same script. There's a lot of things that many new players will think are useless, such as creating a defense with barbed wire and mines. It's really unbalanced, considering you can take out a tank destroyer with 200 mm of armour with an armoured car with a 37 mm gun.
Con Punishing
To some a cost of mistake can be slightly too much. Simply having a squad in open at wrong time can end up losing them all in few seconds burst of concealed machine-gun.
Con Steep learning curve
There being no tutorial makes for a steep learning curve, so one will need to spend a good bit of time with the game in order to learn all the mechanics on their own.
