What The Hell Happened To Splinter Cell?

- Ubisoft certainly has their hands full these days. From managing production of The Crew 2, Keeping up with maintenance of For Honor, The Division, Ghost Recon Wildlands, and on top of that overseeing the production of the behemoth that is the Assassin's Creed franchise, its hard to imagine where exactly Splinter Cell fits into the schedule these days.

Chaos Theory was an almost perfect game. There must have been 80 trillion paths within every encounter. It's a glorious, glorious experience.
Drew Layton same feeling because this game was super Fantastic
I replayed that game too many times to count, especially the lighthouse mission... best Ubi series ever
Vincent Porter me too i love this leve and the bank really amazing
@ Drew Layton The "trillion paths" got reduced by the time you got to Seoul. Everything was a one-way hallway without multiple approaches to reach objectives at all. The thing that made matters worse is you were forced to go THROUGH the scripted firefights with no method of avoiding them. I call that major league bullshit.
Lunatic LK47 Yeah, Seoul was a bit like that.
You loved the drones though. Go on admit it...
Sam Fisher needs one last outing... this time with Michael Ironside coming back.
Jake Hunter agreed!
I really wish for a sequel. HOWEVER, I honestly think they should retire his character, at least to a Lambert role, by this time, he's too old and would definitely want to sit on the sidelines. Bringing in a new character would be great. Also, they should had done this with Blacklist if they weren't even gonna bring in Michael Ironside for Sam. They should had made Briggs the main character or something similar
Brownaut1993. If he's old then Solid Snake is a damn fossil.
He is a fossil.
Sam is close to his 60s now
It forgot its roots. I miss grabbing an NPC, taking them into a dark corner and hearing a dark-humoured interrogation. I miss split jumps. I miss Lambert. I miss "dont kill anyone or i'll abort the mission" levels. I miss Michael Ironside!
Conviction & Blacklist were cool, but they were such a departure from the series' roots.
Splinter Cell became way too fast paced like some sort of arcady secret agent ninja game. It's supposed to be slow, cold and calculated, where you get an adrenaline rush at every "oh crap I think he might of saw me" moment because of how much thought and work you're supposed to put into sneaking your way through your missions.
Not just running through the thing like your some sort of Rambo with suppressed weapons.
Man you said it. If only they would do some old fan service and stay true to that and stop trying to appeal to the larger masses so much with a franchise that already is so established already lol. But as it is with anything... Its a matter of how they can make money off Splintercell.
Chaos Theory hands down the best in the franchise.
Sam B Double Agent close second
Klorg Lork Double Agent in number one in my opinion.
Chaos Theory was the last good Splinter Cell imo
@Bwa Bwa Yoshi Hey man, we're all welcome to our own terrible opinions. I have mine, you have yours.
that one opinion stated.. mine is blacklist is thrice better than chaos, chaos sitl goes a mario route you jes gotta this way..period..With black list you do as you wish and remain in an area you like! GAMING BOLT: do rem that ubisoft is 5 separate locations vying for a superb arena to move on..its not only one site !
I hope they go back to stealth, going loud was why I never went back. Having limited supplies. Not having the 5th freedom was always fun to me.
MeDaFaded yes absolutely! The technical stealth is what made those games!
When Splinter Cell was actually Splinter Cell. Also going off that 5th freedom thing, absolutely agree! Because I remember those few missions when you were finally given that freedom to kill and it felt amazing. Having limitations in gameplay made the game so much fun and more challenging.
+PANCAKEMINEZZ splinter cell is very much splinter cell they made Sam Fisher how he is supposed to be action and stealth
MeDaFaded the game would not go as far as it has if they haven’t made changes though. I’ve been playing since pandora tomorrow and I don’t mind the new changes they made to the game recently.
+Nico Bautista you are so right I have played since the beginning I love the changes a elite agent like they say Sam is would be doing what the changes have him doing
Splinter cell will always stay my Favorite Ubi franchise, Chaos Theory, Double Agent and Conviction are some of the greatest single player and multiplayer experiences I've ever had was a blast playing with a few pals.
I think Chaos Theory was the best game in the entire series -- they just kept improving from the first to the third game. Now, I''ve played all the primary console/PC SC games in close to chronological order. I did also play both the original Xbox/PS2 version of Double Agent and the PC/360 version. Both versions were technically complete but, personally, I think both versions were also extremely buggy.
The last-gen version was not given enough production time to smooth out some serious imperfections. Basically, you could snipe enemies from the other end of a long hallway simply because there was very little aim accuracy balancing (to make where a bullet actually hits more unpredictable.) The enemy AI was also super-sensitive in some spots. And, of course, holding an enemy in the familiar submission hold with Sam's hand not actually holding a knife. Developer oversights, I know.
Then, the next-gen version was visually buggy as hell on PC. Missing textures, hard pop-ins, some audio issues. The usual junk.
Conviction, despite breaking the majority of the SC series' gameplay rules... was alright, though. At least, I never caught any significant glitches.
CHEESEBRIT me too
I'm glad so many different channels are bringing light to this, I've been wondering for a while now, and need my Splinter Cell fix.
Oh my god chaos theory and double agent one of the best games i ever played. We need michael the old vioce and old gameplay back.
1) Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory creator is making a new game - that's good news.
2) In this day and age we can expect only some ridiculous bullshit like open-world or game-as-service under Splinter Cell name from Ubisoft - that's bad news.
Damien Scott if you combined the core Splinter Cell game and Hitman's open world style maps and did it right it could be amazing
David C
Unfortunatelly Ubisoft is not interested in hand-crafted experiences anymore, they are all about open-world systems, quantity-over-quality philosophy, etc.
where did it all go wrong man....
1)Name of the game?
2)Ghost Recon now, no need to use splinter cell name
are you still salty about ghost recon? Wasn't the first ghost recon pseudo open world (like hitman)
Unfortunately , Ubisoft is Busy with Assassins Creed None Sense ...
Agreed that that assassin's creed is nonsense. Ive come to believe that people like it since it's a very easy game and you look badass because you pressed the "A" button.
ubisoft should just end assassin's creed as there is no more good story left for it and should concentrate on splinter cell and maybe a Prince of Persia game
Shameer Malik As much as I would like to see that terrible series come to an end, there's plenty of story left for assassin's Creed. If they have an assassin in the time of the pyraminds then they have them for many other years in many other places meaning many other assassins to play as.
Shameer Malik Assasins creed origins was really good so no they should not just end it cause you don’t like it
bro there is no ac story left. after desmond died all we get now is assassin's from the past and no modern story. will be great if we get watch dogs 3 in which we have to fight the Abstergo industries as orgins proved watch dogs and ac both have the same universe but dont think so that will happen as ubisoft now just wants to make money and we probably will get unlimited ac games with no modern story and just controlling an assassin from different parts of the world untill history runs out
As far as I'm concerned Ubisoft can burn all other franchises. I just want a Splinter cell game dammit!! one every 2-3 years is fine, don't need an annual one that's just ridiculosu
gingergreek well id add to your franchise rainbow six and ghost recon
we would actually get a bad splinter cell game if that happened.
@@ROCK_UNIVERSE97 And that is what I don't want to see happen
We don’t talk about Hawx
Ikcatcher hawk and endwar where fun I wish endwar would come back. Endwar was a good strategy game
I have EndWar & both Hawx games, but haven't gotten a lot into them yet. What's wrong with'em?
Ikcatcher I really liked Hawx. It was a nice a Arcade Flight Sim. So what if Ace combat was better as a more realistic title? Gran Turismo. And Need for speed both have their crowds
you just did
Even if we don't get a new Splinter Cell game this generation, I'd be content with a remaster of Chaos Theory. That game was so great and could use a fresh coat of paint.
It already has a remaster. It's just not available yet for this generation of consoles.
The one thing I think any Splinter Cell game could benefit from is an actual supported modding community. Create your own maps and play settings and share them. But this Ubisoft we're talking about. The only reason they even included map editors with the Far Cry games was because it was something the fan base expected after Crytek's original Far Cry on the CryEngine and its advanced modding tools. And then, they sold us short anyway with hard limitations to all of their FC map editors such as multiplayer-only or some other crap. Yeesh, it took Ubisoft four of their own releases in the series to finally give us a decent editor in FC5 -- five games, technically, if you count Primal, which had no editor...)
If only Ubi thought more like Valve who has always included SDKs and Authoring Tools with the PC releases of their games. If Ubi realized it would actually encourage the longevity of their games. But, then again, there's a lot of other things to be fixed in Ubi games before we even should worry about map editors...
Dominik Greene true
Damn Splinter Cell. Give me Tenchu!!!!!!!!!!
Apparently SC is getting a season event in GR Wildlands, but I don't think my details have surfaced since the teaser popped up on Ubi's facebook page.
Conviction and Blacklist are what happened. Two games, fine in their own right, but awful Splinter Cell games. Ubisoft that's made Tom Clancy turn over in his graves so many times now it's actually disgusting. Last actual Splinter Cell game was Double Agent (original Xbox version).
If the rumors of a new SC game come true, then Ubisoft is gonna need to do some work to get me back to the series. First, they need to drop the formula they had in Conviction and BL, you know, the one they were testing to use in Watch Dogs. That needs to go. Splinter Cell is not a cover shooter and you should not be able to takedown guards so easily and in such a careless manner.
Second, punish loud rush players. In original Splinter Cell games, if you were detected, you could almost certainly say good bye to that life because if you were shot, you didn't have a lot of HP let alone regenerating health. If you managed to escape or win a gunfight, then there were med kits on the map, but they were limited in use (meaning you could only make so many mistakes and be forgiven for them).
Third, bring back the holstering and aiming system the older games had. The older games had a realistic approach when it came to aiming. Any movement whatsoever, even using the right analog stick, caused your crosshairs to expand, making the target you're shooting much harder to hit. In Con and BL, you can easily run and gun without any real accuracy penalty. It might make your guns a little more inaccurate, but with unlimited pistol ammo and MARK AND FUCKING EXECUTE (casual mode) who cares about missing? The realistic aiming was grounded the game in a more believable world: Sam was just a man. Sure, he was highly trained, but bullets and the flaws of being human still apply to him. His high training is the excuse for why he's able to kill, sneak, or knock out several people in a facility over the course of an hour or so.
And finally, get rid of the cheesy cinematic shots. Splinter Cell is supposed to be a game, not a movie. Mark and execute not only dumbed down the game for casual audiences, but it also served to make the game more flashy and movie like. I'm sorry, but I thought I was supposed to be playing the game, not the game playing itself. And before anyone me says "it's optional, just don't use it", why shouldn't I? It's part of the game, it encourages its use, and its objectively better to use it. I shouldn't have to make a challenge run out of the game to make it challenging, that's why I play video games. That's why Dark Souls got so big, and why the earlier SC games were so great. The games were challenging and didn't hold your hand. Both of those games looked players in the face and told you "Fuck you! Want victory? Come get it, bitch!"
This led the player to to say right back "Fine! I will overcome you!" But the newer SC games just timidly say "well if you want victory here it is... but if you want a challenge then you have to go out of your way to do it". That's why the early SC games didn't even have an easy mode, only Normal and Hard. That was it.
There's much more I could add to this, but I'm sure most people have reached the end of their attention span by now (most likely the people who liked Black List and Conviction probably) and lost interest. So I'll stop it here. But there are many more issues plaguing how Splinter Cell was handled and backtracked when Conviction was released, and only got worse in Black List.
You're are damn right - 100%! By the way: I also like it very much to read that you agree with me: Double Agent (XBOX) was much better than the Xbox360-version.
I recently bought the 360 version and... oh man. It's not bad, but it's Original Xbox brother is far better, and plays more akin to Chaos Theory. Which until recently, I always wondered why there was some hate to Double Agent, when the version I had always played was basically Chaos Theory with some bells and whistles added to the mix.
Well, I do think Chaos Theory was the cream of the crop! Personally, I've never liked either version of Double Agent. The original Xbox version felt stiff and incomplete due to all the developer oversights (they supposedly didn't have enough time before launch). Remember climbing the rope in the prison chapel and this super-sensitive guard on the roof kept getting triggered as though you were stomping around below him. He even shot at me in the dark. So, over-sensitive AI compared to Chaos Theory. Or, the fact that the pistol's accuracy parameters were basically set at 100% by default. You could snipe an enemy from thirty feet away with no trouble because it was almost always dead-on. Or, the rather amusing enemy submission hold reused from Chaos Theory where Sam would use the same pose but hold no knife to the NPC's throat. It wasn't all game-breaking. Just takes a bit away from the immersion.
The PC/360 version of Double Agent was largely all daytime levels which always felt like it defeated the purpose of a Splinter Cell mission setting (darkness!) -- although, the "Mombasa: Part Two" mission where Emile Dufraisne sends you to kill some other double agent was pretty fantastic, in my opinion. But there were some textures missing around the starts of the game and a few other bugs. Personally, neither game did anything for me.
Yeah, I'm Chaos Theory for life, baby!
Do you know the number of times I would reload saves in the first few games if I was detected? It was mandatory. It was necessary! Splinter Cell Perfectionist, I am! Heck, they didn't even have a end-of-mission score chart until Chaos Theory...
Lol Blacklist awful? You're drunk.
I love when they recognize tenchu THE REAL FIRST 3D STEALTH GAME
Splinter Cell was ahead of its time. So much fun.
Sam Fisher (Michael Ironside) is back in Ghost Recon: Wild Lands. Now when do we get an actual splinter cell game?
_"Splinter Cell Blacklist is arguably one of the better Splinter Cells"_
What?! Are you nuts?! I wouldn't even go as far as calling Blacklist a Splinter Cell game let alone a stealth game; its mechanics and AI are dumbed down for casual players and it gives me less FPS than running Crysis 1 and 3 on the same machine at the same time... Crash Bandicoot might be a better stealth game than Blacklist!
Cubinator73 ikr, infact every Tom Clancy's tactical shooter franchise such as Ghost Recon, Splinter Cell and Rainbow Six got dumbed down for casual players too
GmodGamer G Woah that's a bit out of the park there. The only game dumbed down out of that list is rainbow six and that one is SEVERE. Ghost recon seems harder now then ever especially with the teir mode. Splinter cell blacklist is actually just fine Sam's just doing his job and fourth echelon sometimes doesn't require Sam to not be detected. Big whoop.
+Pointtakenbeah The "sometimes Sam must not be detected" is the problem: It's a game design flaw, because failing a single enemy encounter resets the mission, hence a mission is beaten by repetition, not by skill. A way better design would be to incentivise avoiding detection with a reward and to disincentivize restarting a level by lowering the reward on every restart.
The current design is Ubisoft's way of saying: "I want money, so I make the game easy for everyone"
Cubinator73 What is the reward you're talking about. Not quite sure what you mean by that. Also, which splinter cell are you saying is easy for everyone? You could say that conviction was made "easy for everyone" because of the mark and execute easily obtained though melee kills or not needing to aim your jumps to knock out an enemy from above. Or blacklist which I don't see how it is any easier or harder than chaos theory or older splinter cells in general. Perfectionist mode removes the mark and execute ability and enemies spawn in the same areas just like the older splinter cells.
I want another splinter cell so bad😥
It's OK Ubi, take your sweet time with this one. double check it constantly, make sure, it's what we want, and your golden.
I sure hope that Ubisoft will bring it to life again. I surely do miss the franshice.
In all seriousness, it pisses me off when people say that Blacklist didn’t have a stealth element to it. It absolutely did. I played through the entire game in pure stealth. The only thing I had a problem with was the voice actor for Sam.
Here's a wild theory: Ubisoft gave Sam Fisher a cameo in GRW as a teaser that there's going to be a new game, possibly using wildlands as a kind of 'setup' for the new game?
I died at 0:21 😆that reference’s just too funny
A lack of next gen spy vs mercs is a crime
The team deathmatch mode in splinter cell was a crime. It's like Ubisoft has their gamemodes all mixed up in their games. I tend to disagree with this no respawning trend in games but it would really fit splinter cell imho.
By team deathmatch I mean blacklists version of mixed teams of spies and mercs. No, chaos theory did it right keeping it *SPIES VS MERCS* in their tdm mode
Between Clint Hocking (Chaos Theory creative director) being hired back to work on something at Ubisoft Toronto, Ironside being spotted around those same offices and that Amazon listing, I have very high hopes.
Blacklist was phenomenal, and it was by far the BEST game in the Splinter Cell series. And I loved the new guy (Eric Johnson) who voiced Sam, he did an amazing job. Everyone involved was amazing, and made an amazing game.
If anything I think Ubisoft should remaster Chaos Theory. It's the only game in the franchise that properly uses the classic "no casuals allowed" formula and delivers well thought out levels, gadgets and storylines.
I couldn't care if they don't get Ironside to voice Fisher, I just want the chaos theory gameplay system back with better graphics and less bugs.
I love how at the beginning you didnt mention seige haha all good though man! loved the video
If they do a comeback better be good
I think it was about a year ago Michael Ironside was doing an interview for a movie (I couldn't tell you what movie it was) and during the conversation stated that he was working on a new Splinter Cell game. That's all he said and since the reporter is not a gamer she didn't think to ask anything more about it. I hope he comes back as I really enjoyed Splinter Cell Blacklist but thought it was a huge mistake to recast Sam Fisher. Michael Ironside made that character what it is. During the first game he even gave them suggestions and ideas to the character and nuances that he felt were missing. They claim that for black lives they change the voice because they wanted someone who could do full motion capture while doing the voice yet so many other games have done motion capture with the voice added in later and it works just fine. In my opinion they should have just had Sam running fourth echelon and you play as I knew badass agent that is equal to Sam's promise. Sorry so long-winded we'll see how it works out
Sam Fisher would be 61 now. He’s as old as most US Generals. MGS4’s Old Snake was funny, but I prefer this game stick to its realistic Tom Clancy roots and have him supervise.
I hope they drop for honor and watchdogs and get back to good franchises like SC. yeah, they departed from the standard, conviction was somewhat too loud, but had cool elements; and blacklist was too linear and fast. Splinter Cell was all about taking things slow, planning and executing, with a 1000 ways to get around an area. I wish the team that did Chaos Theory, returns for a new installment.
Better than Metal Gear, in my opinion.
Splinter cell chaos theory was the peak of the series and still is the best to this day.
Great vid, this topic had to be spoken
I've loved the series and how much they experiment with different concepts. My favorite of the bunch is Blacklist.
A new Splinter Cell game is coming out this year with Michael Ironside voicing Sam Fisher again
Ubisoft has taken a turn in the recent years, just look at The Division, Ghost Recon Wildlands, Rainbow Six Siege, Watch dogs, Assassin Creed, Far Cry...They really like pumping out open world games and multiplayer games which makes sens since they usually sell more than linear single player games. They even turned Rainbow Six Siege into a multiplayer game when it has always been a single player experience first. If they're going to come out with a new Splinter Cell, I'm afraid that they are going to "Rainbow Siege" it and turn it into a multiplayer game like the spy vs mercenaries game mode.
I'll accept sam for one last outing. After that he should take up the Lambert role so Michael can keep playing the role and we play as Briggs in the field. He's a pretty likable character and I'd accept him as a new protagonist.
Michael Ironside had throat cancer during Blacklist and may have continued after..so perhaps Ubisoft were waiting for him to make a full recovery.
Do you know the number of times I would reload saves in the first few games if I was detected? It was mandatory. It was necessary! Splinter Cell Perfectionist, I am! Heck, they didn't even have a end-of-mission score chart until Chaos Theory...
Wow UBI is Huge!! they have a deep well to pull from. i didnt realize just how big it is
SKN Game! Yeah I would like to see more variety in there IPs. I think For Honor was a good start at that. But they do really have plenty of franchises.
I'm biggest splinter cell fan there is. I wonder what's happening with game but I think they want to stay at roots and this is hard to accomplish in today world. Splinter cell was always unique not like call of duty or similar game's, this is why they taking so long to develop something new and original while staying on the Roots.
Splinter Cell Blacklist was my favorite in the franchise, id love to see them expand on that and give us one HUGE game with like 40 levels thats like 100gb in size. just one BIG FUCKING GAME to end the series.
I think there aren't anymore games because there aren't anymore books. Aftermath was the last book in 2013, which is coincidentally when blacklist came out.
What happened is Michael Ironside decided to not return as Sam Fisher and the devs decided that instead of hiring a voice impersonator they just used a different voice so in my stubbornness I refused to play blacklist.
I hate black list gameplay it felt like i play modren assassins creed.
Blacklist was awesome. Only complaint was release timing. One month away from gta 5. Didnt give it longevity. Cant wait for another one.
Games as service thats what happend
I want Michael Ironside to voice Sam Fisher again!!!!! His voice is what made Fisher such a great character to begin with.... and removing him was the stupidest thing Ubisoft did!!!!
Splinter Cell started to go the same route as Resident Evil, which is to say it stopped being comfortable in its own skin. It started taking more of an action approach. I still enjoyed the whole series for what it was but in terms of the story, I think Sam Fisher is getting old...literally and Sarah or an unmentioned son needs to take the mantle
yeah after playing blacklist, i really enjoyed it but it didnt feel like a splinter cell game at all. hopefully they go back to their roots with the new one
•:) We need another Splinter Cell soon please Ubisoft •:)
Splinter Cell died when Fisher was made too serious and bogged down by personal issues and angst ... plus dropping Ironside as the voice was a HUGE mistake. But Ironside is now BACK ... it's not a new game yet, but it's a promising start ... Make Splinter Cell epic and fun again.
They need to remaster all splinter cell games I DEFINITELY would buy it
ALL WE HAD TO DO WAS BRING THE DAMN MICHAEL IRONSIDE, UBISOFT !!!
Next do, "What the hell happened to Max Payne"
I mean, Phantom Pain and Watch Dogs 2 are holding me. But I really want a new Splinter Cell.
Blacklist, once you get over Michael Ironside's voice gone ( :( ) was freakin incredible... i dont care what anyone says...
Splinter cell double agent was the last decent one, chaos theory was my favourite followed by number 1 and pandora tommorow.
I personally loved splinter cell blacklist, if they made a new splinter cell game I would hope it focuses a bit more on stealth and a really good multiplayer, a really good multiplayer is what will bring in new fans imo
@1:47 Blacklist returned to the stealthy roots of the franchise? Ummmmmmmm...what?
Just use the formula that always worked and make sure the plot isn't too ridiculously unbelievable or cliche. Thats what I liked about the first 3. They did it just right. Sam needs to retire too. he was old when the first splinter cell came out *nearly 20 years ago* That doesn't mean he can't still be a cameo in future games. If there was one idea I could pitch to the developers of future games it would be that Fisher is now working a "mission control" role filling your ear with humor and wisdom in the midst of Echelon chatter. Chaos Theory got that perfect. Astronauts understand other Astronauts and are usually the ones in direct communication when a spacewalk is happening,the same would apply for Splinter Cells. There should always be an experienced Splinter Cell at the direct com with you to give technical advice. The inside joke could be that the Splinter Cell doesnt know Sam was a Splinter Cell, maybe only familiar with his background with the Seals. New players to the franchise who arent familar with Splinter Cell history would be fooled at first too, a creative way of welcoming a new generation. Afterall, not every-one person knows everything.
I think the mistake Ubisoft made at some point was that they thought they had to keep changing up things, innovating...but perfection is perfection. Stick to Chaos Theory gameplay and just create new missions for Sam. That's what we want! And story was never it's strong suit, so why not stick to one main game with countless (reasonably prices) DLC missions?
All I can do now, after replaying all the SC games, is play MGS V...I guess you could do much worse ;-).
Now would be great time to remaster the series for PS4/XB1 (inc Conviction for PS4 and both versions of Double Agent).
When I think guerilla. I think Kalashnikov.
Finished every Splinter Cell game and I've loved it, it upsets me that they've put it on the back burner.
Double agent had my favorite gameplay. Unfortunately every Ubisoft game feels the same but re-skinned minus rainbow six
Would love another double agent multi-player
Zeusifer fuck yes
Hell Yeah. and the 1v1 mode from Conviction.
ThousandairesClub like I honestly wander why they haven't the online multi-player was fun as hell I hate that there isn't another multi-player game in that style
Oh yea
cant wait for the *BEEP BEEP, SPY DETECTED WITH THE BULLSHIT DETECTOR, BEEP BEEP*
CT's VS was better imo
It died. And that was the best it could do.
Honestly, I never got into Splinter Cell, neither the old ones as well as the new ones.
Oh yeah.. the movie was announced so long ago I nearly forgot about it. Basically the only news we've heard is that Tom Hardy will be cast as Sam Fisher lol
What I want to see is the first three games remastered. Especially the first one. Make it so the game is well complete. By that I mean you have all the missions in one game. You have the power plant mission that was elusive to the PS2, and the bonus missions for pc.
I swear to god. If Ubisoft announce Splinter Cell as a "massive open world experience" or "play it with your friends in an all new innovative multiplayer co-op system" this will be the last generation of gaming I do. Video games is a fading interest to me nowadays. Not because I'm getting older. But because everything is getting watered down through multiplayer or open worlds in the gaming industry. Obvioisly because it's more lucrative. Save single player games!
This E3. It's pretty much confirmed with Splinter Cell dlc for Wildlands
i think ubisoft simply stopped pulling sam out of retirement
I gave this video a "Like" after the 1st third
listened till the end ... then changed the "like" to "unlike"
where is the news ???
The first three splinter cell games are gold!
This is one of these moments when the narrator or whoever wrote the text for the narrator has no idea what they're talking about. The last few entries to the series have been the exact opposite of "staying true to the series". Conviction was overall bad, diminishing the stealth aspect to a very severely dumbed down mechanic and promoting run and gun kind of gameplay. Blacklist surely has returned to the stealth aspect, but it still is nothing like the original games. You CANNOT approach the levels however you see fit. Levels in Blacklist are linear, forcing you to follow corridors and hand-holding that the game developer has put in place for you. The Splinter Cell 1 - Chaos Theory games promoted complete freedom of approach, removing any sort of waypoints or linearity, leaving the player with complete freedom of approach. They were slower pace, promoting careful planning over rushing, while Blacklist is a faced paced game which sadly still contains some of the Convictions run and gun mentality. Blacklist was an OKAY game, especially after Conviction, but nowhere close to the level of Chaos Theory and the likes. They ruined it. It's better they do not touch the franchise again.
Sam Fisher is going to be in Wildlands! Hopefully there will be a reveal at e3.
Well most of the Ubisoft staff don't even know what Splinter Cell is...
So, what do you Splinter Cell fans think of Ubisoft's move to add Sam as just another playable character in Rainbow 6 Siege? Siege has more of story(lore really) now than it did in the beginning. I hope to see a fully fledged story for Rainbow 6 operators and Sam some day.
*Sam fischer is back , check the new video released by ubisoft. He is going to come in wildlands on april 9*
Blacklist’s multiplayer is under appreciated ah they should just expand that as a separate game
Ubisoft "ok you guys get Splinter Cell" Splinter Cell ancient egypt 😂
Lol Egyptian Lambert. That's one way to bring him back from the dead.
Such great memories or playing these games. Would love to see a new game but I'm sceptical of Ubisoft's ability to pull off anything of quality.
Chaos theory can’t be beaten, so they gave up.
They'll be back... Trust me. It's just a matter of how much they return to the roots.
Would like to see them Reboot Splinter Cell, a fresh new story and world.
I never bought Splinter Cell Blacklist because they changed the voice actor. Also conviction was too easy and didn't seem like it was a real Splinter Cell game to begin with. You didn't have to work anymore to be stealthy. All you had to do was push buttons to latch onto walls and Mark people.
It was recently revealed that a new Splinter Cell is on the way.
More like what's about to happen to Splinter Cell...that April Fools Uplay joke only amped up my impatience for its upcoming announcement.
Hey man you might gonna be happy if you see that the fam Ubisoft reveled year 2 of Ghost Recon Wildlands upcoming project praise be 🙏🏻
Good history and good MvsS and multiplayer modes like in conviction, that all we need
The new game will definitely bring new fans and old hardcore fans back like me, If it is done right cause look at the engine, They can make a Chaos Theory 2.0 with It. And I will be honest, It is my opinion, I would like to see Double Agent like a game. But we can count The DA way, out. But yea I want the game to be like SC Chaos Theory styled game but better detailed, better designed, longer missions like 45min to 1H and I want the movement from Chaos Theory cause It would feel like old times. Oh and yea Ubisoft can do It, of course with right Ideas and Yves knows that.
PS: NO OPEN WORLD AND NO FORCED MOMENTS!!!! But sandboxed missions like chaos theory and DA (Xbox Orginal version).
I loved how we could play any type of game on any stage with conviction. Tons of replayability. Didn't have anything near that experience with Blacklist
Let's face it creators of good franchises will always mess them up or end them
The first time in a console generation we have no splinter cell game. Shame. They better not make it open world if they ever decide to make one.
