Splinter Cell: Blacklist multiplayer: "the biggest, most ambitious Splinter Cell ever"

OXM UK writes: "Ubisoft isn't saying much about Splinter Cell: Blacklist's multiplayer component at present, but what the developers are saying makes us happy. Here's the key nugget: Pandora Tomorrow's venerated Spies versus Mercs mode is back."

Neo Nugget5091d ago

I will buy the crap out of the game if Spies vs Mercs is *truly* back.

Oh the memories...

ManBearPork5091d ago

Think of it like this.
A dark map with a few computers on it that need to be hacked.

Atackers (spies)
One team plays a multiplayer that's like a sneakier assassins creed online with tech.
nightvision,tasers,flashbangs etc.
Their objective i to hack the objective& kill it's defenders

The defenders (mercs)
The defenders play a fps in te same dark level with a flahlight. They are supposed to protect the computers and kill the attackers that can come from literally everywhere.

if enough computers are hacked the map shifts to the next section (like battlefield)

DarkBlood5091d ago

sounds like fun thanks for the info

General Shrooms5091d ago

Same here, right now that game looks like complete shit, but if they deliver Chaos Theory style Multiplayer I'll buy it. If they don't, its a no go for me.

MrGunny945091d ago

Good old times.. CH MP was damm awesome!!!! Let's hope this Splinter Cell atleast gets a decent MP.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell - A Decade in the Shadows

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell has been out of action for a decade, so it's time to look back at 2013's Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

Sam Fisher is evidently the most skilled stealth operative because no-one has seen him in his own game for years

kevco331006d ago

10 years, in fact. He must be, like, 60 by now?

phoenixwing1006d ago (Edited 1006d ago )

why make an inspired game that takes effort when you can half ass it with multiplayer gaas games and filler filled assassins creed games?

That question up there is the reason you don't see splinter cell games

zarbor1006d ago

Yup, another example that Ubisoft has no idea what they are doing.

MIDGETonSTILTS171006d ago

The entire mark and execute system belonged in another game.

It’s cool, but the polar opposite to how Sam Fisher initially handled.

The original trilogy made shooting very, very difficult, yet a viable option, which ultimately motivates stealth.

The mark/execute system makes shooting stupid easy, to the point of why would you even bother trying stealth as an alternative?

FYouDad1005d ago

Because Ghost is the method fans of the series actually prefer? IMark and execute is never forced upon the player you liiterally never have to bother using it even once throughout Blacklist.

RNTody1006d ago

The sad part is that I actually really enjoyed the last game, Blacklist. It may have lacked the iconic voice but the gameplay was excellent, and blended stealth, action and a mix really great compared to most games, where none of the three options felt like the wrong way to play. I really hope they either produce a remake of the original game or a proper sequel.

Rikimaru-001006d ago

Isn't UBI Soft remaking splinter cell.

Sam Fisher Deserves Better

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "Ubisoft, we need to chat. Please, have a seat. Thanks. Ok, so I think you know why you’re here. No it has nothing to do with all those game delays, we’ll talk about that later. What? No it’s not about the Skulls & Bones and Beyond Good & Evil 2 falling off the face of the Earth, just listen. We need to talk about Splinter Cell. Don’t give me that look, you know this conversation needs to happen. The way you’ve treated the series, its fans and poor Sam Fisher himself is sad, infuriating and just plain disappointing and it needs to stop."

The Fish!!!

I'd love to see a remastered edition of those games as well as something new. It's about time.

UltraNova2245d ago

MGS is done, at least as we know it so it's now or never Ubi, give Fisher the reboot it deserves. And for Gods sake, don't you dare turn Splinter Cell into another Division/Ghost reckon online abomination instead of a SP focused steath action game!

Psychonaut852245d ago

You know they will though. This is Ubisoft we’re talking about

zachyBROosevelt2246d ago (Edited 2246d ago )

I would love a new splinter cell, maybe even a reboot at this point. Sam Fisher deserves it

Profchaos2246d ago

I think reboot the entire franchise the games were great but every time they try to make him human like a father or something it comes of as unbelievable

hiawa232245d ago

They added damn near every SC game to Xbox1X back compat enahnced list. That is a lot of Sam enhanced and I am loving it, but Sam deserves a new next gen game.
