Splinter Cell: Sam Fischer Live Journal

There is a colon. What are you guys on about?

hah, score one for pirates, the Skidrow release is out and it works for LAN co-op via Tunngle or Hamchi or whatever :3

Interrogations are nothing special, you just beat them up more then normal and get their reaction.  I definitely could have done with a knock on wall.

In a straight up battle, you are automatically disadvantaged.  The AI have good aim... and can headshot you too.

@MrWiggles: As for the spoilers thing, eh, for the benefit of others and it sounded spoilery.  I don't care personally.  The story does not interest me, since I've never played any of the previous or even finish the single play on Conviction.

Finally got to playing this. Pretty good, though I feel extremely ripped off at some of the points where I die. Ambushes, for instance, are fun, but not when it's twenty minutes to the last checkpoint.

Anybody wanna Hamachi with me?

Doesn't matter, Ubisoft Neutered Co-op on PC anyways. (No voice-chat/text-chat, IIRC).

OT:

Action, Really actiony. Not Splinter Cell in the style of old splinter cell, but still lots of fun. Though the NPC's need to be a little quieter. Still, It was funny, when i was escaping the fair. one of the NPC's shouted "THE FAIR IS CLOSING, FISHER!". I laughed for a few solid minutes there.

A lot of fun, but at the same time, I'm not sure if the change is for better of for worse.

I actually really liked how the bad guys always talked. Especially in the beginning, where it was mostly fighting guys with pistols and SMGS, I would get these long, drawn out combats with the last guy on the enemy team, who was always just some mook (in scenes where you actually have to capture somebody, I tended to end up incapacitating them first out of sheer coincidence). This really boosted the sense of awesome for me.

This thread always gets pushed down.

I finally got to play some co-op Hunter today. We got to the third map, fourth zone (so we were on our 14th round) when we got out of synced.

It was amazing though. We were in the museum-type room in the Embassy, and my partner got shot down and fell off a ledge in the middle of a heated firefight. I ran down a flight of stairs to save him. As I did, six soldiers popped out of the sides, one by one. I ended up going into berserk commando mode and took the lot of them down with six shots without breaking stride.

It was so awesome.
