That's what I really liked about it. It was a really enjoyable game with an incredibly straight-to-dvd story. Guilty pleasure stuff, the video game equivalent of that Nicholas Cage movie, National Treasure.

Sorry for the bump but I am still frustrated...
What do I have to do to get a proper sequel??
I was certain it was going to be announced at MS or UBI this year.. UBI pretty much went through all their ips... It was time for Sam to return and wow everyone.. Yet they focus on other ips that all share a common theme...
Freaking Multiplayer!!! (Even Beyond 2 seems to have co-op, etc) I heard a rumour a while ago that UBI was going to invest heavily in Multi Game.. (ghost recon, rainbow, crew, etc). Yet we have AC which I don't think is multi????
I still think we live in a world where a stealth game can shine next to multiplayer games.. hell, am sure a multi stealth aspect can be thrown in as well... why the lack of love??
Feelings gaf??

Splinter Cell's Facebook page has also changed the profile picture to "We are Ubisoft" meaning they are indeed working on the new game
How exactly does that mean they are working on a new game? Is it not just common to change the picture of all their social media stuff?
They also made this change on the Call of Juarez page today. Wouldn't take it as an indication of anything. Just seems like a coordinated social media thing.

Fully expect this to be Ubi's take on MGSV. Yeah Ghost Recon was kinda that. But there's enough difference they can do in these styles.

Awesome. Black List was a surprisingly good, so I'm defo down for another instalment.

OG Xbox Double Agent is the sequel to Chaos Theory that fans always wanted though.

I have seen their "We are Ubisoft" thingie on Facebook. While I believe it doesn't mean they are working on a new game, they can't play with my emotions like that!!

For fucking real.
Just did a quick check and other than Ubisoft mobile I can't really find any other pages that changed their profile pic. Assassins creed, rainbow six and the division are all using the regular pic. So maybe this is some mobile thing?
Drunk Ironside is a hell of a lot better than whoever played Sam in Blacklist.

It's a bumped thread and all but really my only actual complaint about Blacklist was the lack of Ironside. Otherwise it still holds up pretty dam well even now.

God damn bump. But hey, maybe it means they're far into development!
With Blacklist's ending, where 10 countries supported the big evil terrorist organization and American Ashes maybe not taking place yet, I think we're going way further down into that hole.

Nope. That game went places if you stuck with it.
I'm hoping for them to be more inspired by the new Hitman, honestly.
I'm always game for a new Splinter Cell; definitely one of my favorite series.
But the game really doesn't need Ironside; he's wanted to quit the series at least twice. Just make a new protagonist and move on.
Edit: Shit, didn't see that this was an old thread I already posted in lmao

Episodic with large, intricate levels and all kinds of objectives? Yeah, if it was done in the style of Hitman I'd be more than OK with that. Just not the social stealth angle - though a little of that could be fine.

Just give me a Splinter Cell game in the vein of Siege. I single player campaign, and Spies Vs Mercs alllll day errrrrry day.
My heart fucking jumped when I saw this thread bumped.
Please, give us another Splinter Cell. Take a look at how Hitman went from linear levels (Absolution) to huge levels (2016) and recovered it's original essence. More levels like the Bank in Panama, and less like Conviction (I love Blacklist, but that's still too linear).

Ubisoft better make CoJ: Gunslinger 2! the wild west is one of the few settings that they don't have an open world game set in it.

I agree, love the gameplay and for the most part the story of blacklist. My idea for Ironside would've been to have him play Sam Fisher, but in a support role like Lambert from the originals. You play as a different character and towards the end of the game you get caught and Sam (now the player character) has to go get him. Always thought that would be fitting to please Ironside fans and also introduce new blood.

I liked conviction alot, felt like a cool action film, i know thats not what fans want though

Loved the co-op in that one though. Had a great time with that part of the game.
This thread is now group therapy.
Which bums me out. It's already been too long for my tastes. I don't wanna wait until 2019 or whatever.

I don't think you will have to wait till 2019.
In fact it's probably more like 2020 at the absolute earliest:
Found Yves quote:
That wasn't 2 years ago, that was on June 28, 2017, so it's unlikely the game is even in preproduction at this point.
