How to Unlock All Starting Locations in Sniper Elite: Resistance

In the game Sniper Elite: Resistance, each chapter provides a predefined starting point for players. Nevertheless, several chapters also offer alternative starting points that can be accessed. To reveal these hidden spots, players must either set a fire or find a way to open a locked gate.

Initially, these spots won’t be apparent; instead, players must delve into the map to uncover their positions. Roaming around aimlessly without finding them might lead to frustration. Therefore, having a clear indication of where to search can significantly save time. Once unlocked, these locations serve as valuable tools for making Kill List Challenges more manageable.

All Starting Locations for Mission 2 in Sniper Elite: Resistance

In Sniper Elite: Resistance, only the first mission doesn’t offer multiple starting locations. However, for Mission 2, Dead Drop, there are three different spots to begin from. To find the initial starting point, players should veer left when they surreptitiously move over or under the wall. As they approach, a blue eye icon will appear on their map, indicating the Starting Location. To unlock this position at Scafford Yard, you’ll need to pick the lock of a nearby blue door that stands next to some scaffolding. Be aware that there are many enemies in this zone, so keep an eye out for the ‘All Clear’ message on your screen to ensure it’s safe before proceeding.

The starting point for the next level can be found just near the library gardens’ tunnel entrance. To get there, players should follow the road towards the map’s top-left corner, then turn left after the second house you see. This action will make a blue eye appear. Once the blue door with the appearing eye is located, players must pick the lock to unveil the Citadel Apartments Starting Location.

To reach the initial location marked on this map, you should approach it from ground level on the road. If players choose to cross the river via the correct bridge, they’ll come across a set of stairs immediately after crossing. At the bottom of these stairs, there’s a gate that can be unlocked. Opening this gate will not only grant access to the location itself but also to the Signal Box Starting Location. This special starting point allows players to explore the trait station without encountering as many enemies along the way.

In Mission 3, the second location players can gain access to is known as Parkview Apartments. To get there from the initial starting point, cross the left bridge to the north. After the bridge, take your second right turn and navigate through the narrow pathways until you reach the designated building. Proceed to the upper right corner of this building and open the door to unlock Parkview Apartments. This spot offers an excellent alternative for commencing a search for collectibles during Mission 3.

Initially, players will traverse from the map’s right section to its left using a zipline. Continue your journey towards the top of the map until you spot a dam on the right side. Subsequently, move leftwards and you’ll come across a campground named “Dam Lookout”. To unlock this Starting Location, players should proceed there and ignite a fire at the campsite.

Players now have the option to traverse the dam, leading them to the map’s right side. Right after the dam, there’s a tiny house where they’ll need to set up an explosive charge (satchel charge) to demolish the engine room. At the rear of this building, they’ll discover a padlocked gate. Unlocking this gate will grant them access to the Power Station as their starting point.

Across where they position the satchel charge, you’ll find a secure door. Behind this locked door is one of many workbenches found in Sniper Elite: Resistance.

Beginning at your initial position, veer towards the right side. As players progress, they’ll come across a spacious hangar situated by a lake. Prior to reaching this hangar, they will pass some netting that can be scaled. At the summit of this netting lies a campfire which they can ignite. This action will activate the Quarry Lake Starting Point.

To speed things up, let’s restart the level and position ourselves at the initial starting point. Instead, make your way towards the upper part of the map using available roads. Your goal is to reach the Coastal Landing Starting Location situated lower down. This spot serves as a crucial part of the escape route that leads to the leftmost objective. If you want to experience the game in its original difficulty, you can find this Starter Location during your playthrough at that setting.

For this mission, it’s advisable that players carry a satchel charge since they’ll encounter and need to eliminate a tank. Starting from the initial base, players should move north towards a checkpoint. Further ahead, there will be an incline where enemy soldiers might present some opposition, coupled with the previously mentioned tank.

Once handling the tank, players should be positioned to the right side of the Kill List Challenge, Uwe Schoene on the map. Travel along the road until you encounter a turn to the right. Take that turn and continue along it till you reach the farthest end of the map. There, you’ll find one of the AA guns that players must destroy as part of their primary objectives. Look for the breached wall behind this gun to discover the Starting Location for the Breached Wall.

First-time players who haven’t wrapped up the main tasks yet can proceed and complete them. Upon finishing all objectives, they will discover an exit point located at the map’s upper left corner. To reach the exit, players should initially veer right towards a small wooden structure before getting there. Once they arrive near this house, they can unlock the blue door to access the Checkpoint Cabin Starting Location.

As a player, I find myself in an exciting position where I can collect all three Stone Eagles right from the game’s initial starting point without ever having to stray too far!

All Starting Locations for Mission 7 in Sniper Elite: Resistance

As I embark on this mission, one of my auxiliary tasks becomes apparent: eliminating several snipers strategically placed around the battlefield. One of these sharpshooters is perched atop a windmill. To locate this windmill, simply follow the southwestern path from where you begin, or better yet, take a peek at the Kill List Challenge for this mission on your map. Once there, you’ll find a campfire nestled on the ground floor of the windmill. By igniting this fire, I unlocked what I call my ‘Windmill Starting Location’.

To reach the second starting point, walk along the primary pathway until you’re on the map’s opposite side from the windmill. Continue following the main road while checking your right side frequently. You will spot a gate situated between a house and a shed. Opening this gate will grant you access to the Western Farmhouse Starting Location as well.

Players might spot a gnome at this initial position, but it’s not the one they are searching for to unlock the achievement/trophy.

Beginning at the initial spot, head towards the train yard below. Stay close to the leftmost rail and you’ll come across a big blue structure. In front of that building, there’s an area where players can start a campfire. Ignite this fire and it will provide access to the Bombed Factory as your new starting location.

Make your way up to the upper right part of the map, where you’ll find a bridge with multiple arches nearby. As you reach the end of the map, be aware of a sniper’s post to your left. Shortly after this sniper’s nest, you’ll stumble upon a campfire. Igniting this fire will provide access to the Eastern Railyard Starting Point. This spot can serve as a convenient starting location for players to discreetly pick up Hermann Gottschalk’s Kill List Challenge for this mission.
