Splinter Cell Blacklist - Extended walkthrough [UK]

[@Joe-wd7px]

We need another game of SPLINTER CELL

[@weirdo3381]

Currymancha FC Every E3, the first thing I type in to search is Splinter Cell E3 20XX. I'm still waiting too.

[@obijuankenobi3814]

Everything in this trailer was better than the finished game. Sonar looked 100x better, the camera actually moved with Sam's body with every step, animations look way smoother and transition much better, the interrogation and disguise mechanics were completely thrown away, the graphics look better, and the entire idea of "calling for support as the leader of 4th echelon" was also completely scrapped. It's like half the game was taken away

[@wackwabbit3831]

yep..at least we still have mgsv :')

[@elusiveanmol]

Chaos Theory remains my all-time favorite whether for its excellent level design or its beautiful soundscape by Amon Tobin, that game was and still is the epitome of Splintercell.

[@CALILIFE8251]

Same chaos theory was my first splinter cell game will always have special place in my heart

[@AlejandroMorenoAle4l1fe]

if only all the missions were like this

[@trackak0s21]

they are

[@AlejandroMorenoAle4l1fe]

Not really

[@trackak0s21]

They exclude many things but the feeling was the same..

[@trackak0s21]

Oohh you meant ALL the missions.. sorry,i liked all the missions

[@AlejandroMorenoAle4l1fe]

some of them were bad

[@GabrielKnightz]

Things i miss from the franchise, Lambert and their little banter, the OCP or emp gun thingy, proper grunt interrogations

[@metalmario298]

Splinter Cell Blacklist WILL have player choice. It will cater to stealth fans, actions fans, and in-between. I don't know if you've seen the Ghost playthrough of this mission, it's pretty neat. You can get upgrades for weapons and outifts, and customize them according to your play style. MGS Ground Zeroes looks pretty badass too.

[@TheWoah]

We NEED Michael Ironside back.

[@Wretched_YT]

I agree. One of my favorite voice actors.

[@VladProdigious]

+Darkened Wraith I've always loved Michael Ironside as a voice actor as well as a movie feature actor. P.S. Anybody watched him in 'Scanners' by David Cronenberg?

[@hunterabove3609]

confirmed hes working next game

[@TheWoah]

There's a next game?

[@jakesteven1980]

I miss the way Sam Fisher use to be. A spy with lots wise-cracking moments when interrogating some enemies on a mission.

[@TemplarHedgehog]

Is it just me, or does the pre-alpha version have a slight graphical edge compared to the final product? I get the feeling that the graphics are sharper here as well as how character faces look slightly cartoonish, yet better, as well.

[@akshatbishnoi5888]

Downgrades are nothing uncommon among ubisoft games tbh

[@TheOne214]

@@akshatbishnoi5888 this game wasnt downgraded well atleast for the pc version the only thing missing in the final build game is the googles used in this demo which are awesome

[@bobpage6597]

5 years late.....BUT, I thought the Sonar Goggles done here were actually way better than the final product!!

[@jakesteven1980]

I understand you. Sitting on the couch playing this game on your Xbox with your friends makes you excited and comfortably at the same time.

[@CrowdControl-q1s]

IM MI6!!!!!! You comprise years of work!!! *Destroys evidence*

[@phoofnscoops6778]

why would they scrap that fluid execution movement, sure its there still to a degree but that kill animation at 3:22 was really badass

[@GaminSnake]

Ikr. There’s several times where I wanna do an execution in movement but Sam either shoots the guy on foot in front of him or just snaps his neck. Nothing cool like in this demo 😞

[@ChrisThePlayer777]

3:42 it seems that Connor Kenway taught well Sam how to climb

[@rbkgaming2581]

3:42

[@metalmario298]

it does allow manual aiming, you can see it in the video. Mark & Execute is optional.

[@sinisterfff]

Bring splinter cell back please

[@jakesteven1980]

There's more on Chaos Theory. Sam's mood was pretty good back then even when on a dangerous mission.

[@VladProdigious]

Whislte while hanging from a ledger to lure an enemy over so you can grab him and throw him to the ground and his death. I recognize this feature from the Assassin's Creed series. But I don't see why they shouldn't be implemented in a Splinter Cell game since it is an obvious thing to do in many cases when you're engaged in combat with a strong need for stealthy actions. Eagle vision. Well a lot of games use this now a days and it can be discussed how realistic they are. Obviously there already exists SOME degree of Eagle Vision-like technology already in use in battle fields around the globe. Infra red night vision is also a form of Eagle Vision after all. - From what I hear you can choose to turn off Eagle Vision (I don't know the term for this feature in the Splinter Cell game series as I haven't played them yet; I'm a poor man, regrettably) if you find it to be too fantastic for the game to give you a reasonable sense of realism. Alternatively I take it you can simply opt to not use it even if it's available. - In Assassin's Creed Eagle Vision is necessary, but then, the AC se univers is not completely realistic. Speaking of realism, I wonder how far the Splinter Cell main character can jump, and if he can survive 15 feet falls unto a fundament of concrete, whether he uses roll fall technique or not? If such features are used in the Splinter Cell series I'd make the assumption that technology is implemented to help the character pull them off rather than simply giving him super human powers and abilities (even though some of the abilities of the highest trained soldiers will appear as something like super human to many common people). I'd love to play this Splinter Cell game (I've actually wanted to check out this game series for years), and I'm tempted to actiually make a purchase, but I'm going to make some checking into reviews and overall player consensus reading discussions on message boards before I make a final decision. I have to be careful with the close to absent economy I now enjoy, and Ubisoft games have had their issues (to put it mildly) - even with my all time favorite game series, Assassin's Creed - for quite a few years now. I must assume that you're professional enough to not take offense from what I just said. And after all, judging from the latest news I've heard about Ubisoft, you've decided to now go back to emphasizing customer satisfaction through delivering games that work, just as much as you emphasize being in the lead among those who produce next gen innovative games with top notch graphics and content that is both entertaining and intelligent. And... I salute you on that! Way to go, Ubisoft! :)

[@VladProdigious]

EddieTheBunny Ubisoft made the same game with different skins long before I even played the first Assassin's Creed game, so don't hang that on me. You can't blame a guy for checking out new games. How was I supposed to know they did this? I had to see for myself or hear it from someone else. You're the first to point it out, and I happen to agree, but I had no way of knowing until I saw it for myself. I even asked, nobody mentioned this. So quit blaming me for what Ubisoft does, that's just absurd.

[@loverboyz1393]

FYI. It have two ways of playing it. The Mark and Execute is OPTIONAL. You can play stealth or fast pace action. IT YOUR CHOICE

[@LynnJynh9315]

I hadn't seen the Ghost walkthrough, only saw it yesterday. I'm now suitably more excited. Though I still like the option to turn mark-and-execute off and allow for manual aiming.

[@allhighonly7533]

2021

[@batista31619]

Perfectionist mode is a mode you should try then. You can't see through walls, you can't execute enemies (you can still mark them), the last known position silhouette is gone, and enemy AI is more difficult sensitive to sound.

[@timothygreenwood6790]

Best game ever made

[@MrHarivyas]

This game is gonna be so sick , cant wait for all these awesome crazy ass games this year , including gta5 , bf4, splinter cell blacklist , saints row 4 , watchdogs .. can this year get any better ?? i dont even know

[@sc_sc_sc_scratchin]

What was once great is now watered down to some mediocre, conformed and casual thing called action-stealth. You're passing off regress for progress, stripping down the game off its unique features and replacing it with casual gameplay and terrible menus to compensate you're weak approach. You should combine assassins creed and splinter cell for future releases, but wait, make it two games so you can squeeze more money out of it.

[@VladProdigious]

+XXX YYY Check out the news about the upcoming Assassin's Creed game. Ubisoft is going to give it time so they can make sure it works before it gets released. To me that sounds like they're finally beginning to listen to the critique that they've received over the past years. As for Splinter Cell Blacklist, I can't say if it's watered down or just 'empty entertainment' as I haven't played it. My immediate impression though, is that it isn't a game that focuses on depth through ideological questions, it's main purpose is to give the player a thorough wartime specialist fighting experience. The two games do make use of some of the same features, but to merge them in any way beyond that would be a mistake (I know you're kidding about this, but still) because AC is meant to be realistic while it does pose existential and moral questions and invites the player to think beyond his daily routines of his overall superficial existence.

[@weirdo3381]

I thought they did combine them. They made Watch Dogs.

[@phoofnscoops6778]

yeah lol, they try spinning attack dogs as a 'new feature' as if they weren't there in the 2002 SC

[@Astaticembrace]

At the start of any campaign it would be nice to be able to choose whether you want to use it or not...whatever you choose you'd have to stick with for the rest of that campaign.

[@itsmrproducts]

Agreed, though much of that had to do as much with the writing as the VO. The constant quips between Sam and Grim over Fisher's age were priceless.

[@CanIGetSaltOnThat]

Nope, I've heard the Creative Director, Maxime Beland, talking about how the story picks up directly after Conviction. Sam is the leader of the newly-formed Fourth Echelon, and has full control over his team.

[@khanani87]

@Jp Perez it's removed on the harder difficulties I think, it's just in there for people new to the franchise

[@GaminSnake]

Shame they teased disguises but if recall you don’t use any. Also where’s the next splinter cell game!!

[@unchartedPortal]

Also there will be a mode called "Perfectionist" were auto aim and "wallhack" is not a feature I believe it takes out some other stuff too, they made for the fans that have played splinter cell from the beggining

[@thesilentobserver93]

They did the same thing in Halo 4. They had to use a new guy for Master Chief's movements because they are using motion capture. However, they still managed to keep the original voice actors for both Cortana and Chief. Ubisoft still could have used Ironside for Sam Fisher. But, they wanted to use the voice from the guy physically acting and Ironside doesn't want to physically act.

[@skillmoney2349]

Adrenaline and action. Одна из лучших фишек игры для этой серии это "Информационная презентабельная Команда" за которой следует главный герой оставаясь в центре событий экстремальной подготовки перед выходом к главной цели.

[@tangopackin]

just noticed Sam does some daylight missions...badass

[@1975supermike]

I noticed the puddles now splash :) love when they start paying attention to detail. In scc they didn't can't wait. I bet it's going to be back to scct roots. I noticed they Mic whistle thing is back in :) that was an awesome scct thing. Making your own noise.

[@MrBinVoyons]

I read an article saying that you can play 3 ways: stealthy lethal, stealthy non-lethal and not stealthy. The most dangerous way being the non stealthy

[@adnanshafi8704]

we need version of the game.... man i love this... played it so many times again and again

[@Kharn526]

That interrogation part was pretty gnarly!

[@algerianmuslim2012]

I'm really tired of reading negative comments about this amazing game, I started playing Splinter Cell when I was 15 and now I'm 24 and I still play it and I will buy this game. You enjoy the game then play it, if you don't stop complaining about voice over and how hard or easy it is. NEGATIVE PEOPLE.

[@JNChannel95]

The new type of stealth I mentioned about is the killing in motion because whether you like it or not that is a kind of stealth.

[@MizuDG]

Not just you, mate. I am excited for it and the body moving as well. I feel this is a combination of Chaos Theory and Conviction but in a good way. I just wish they dont overdo Mark-Execute in Coop since me and my pal are playing through CT and it brings a lot more strategy when you dont have an insta-kill button when things go wrong

[@TheMiddlechild79]

A lot of people r complaining bout how Michael ironside is not doin the voice of Sam, which I agree sucks but in all it looks like awesome, can't wait to get it

[@thesilentobserver93]

Look at the videos released on HaloWaypoint. The voice actors were NOT doing the motion capture. Two different actors were. And if Ironside couldn't, then I apologize for misinforming. Thank you for the correction. Doesn't change the fact that they could have used Ironside as a voice actor still. Sounds like we both need to do a little bit more research next time around.

[@Groundedflag]

Yeah, I only just saw the Ghost walkthrough.. pretty relieved.

[@CastingOutTheSelf]

My point was that I don't really care about the change in voice acting (everyone retires at some point) compared to the removal of stealth features throughout the series, such as runspeed mattering because of how loud your footsteps are, or lightlevel having a greater range than "they can or can't see you". And did you just call the main character Tom?

[@TheSharkman180]

Actually Sam is 57 because the year a new Splinter Cell comes out it's always two years ahead. Like when Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory came in 2005 but, when you play the game it takes place in 2007.

[@MrAchillies300]

Agreed. It has more of a bourne feel than sneaking around corners...

[@Sillywomanproduction]

If you pushed the left stick down on conviction it said "A to drop". Maybe they realised it was pointless having 3 buttons that did the exact same thing. It was LT to drop, LB to drop and A to drop, pointless. I dont have a clue on what it is though

[@HarryIanBonner]

Looks fantastic. Just wish you'd kept Michael Ironside as Sam's voice.

[@TheBolik93]

absolutely agree!! Old splinter was more mysterious!! no other agents, only a couple of striking actions but I think it was more interesting...

[@limeball123]

A splinter cell game without those goggles, to me, isn't a splinter cell game. So happy they're back!

[@thegrimm54321]

Michael Ironside himself helped the new guy get acquainted with Sam and make sure he knew what he was doing, so I expect great things!

[@2b66]

I would love to play a bonus mission where in the end of Conviction, you go in to save Vic Coste, It would be awesome!

[@Ap9589]

Pre ordered this game from amazon can't wait for the release date

[@vbs1992]

Ubisoft said that they've added more action but everything can be done with stealth. A trailer showcasing that will be shown later.

[@CastingOutTheSelf]

I just miss the days when Splinter Cell games (or any stealth games) had various degrees of visibility and sound detection, and stealth was much more than just "dodge the vision cones".

[@BerishaFatian]

2:41 why this vision is not in the game??

[@bronosx2246]

You better shut up there! It would suck having these goggles in the game because these goggles would make everything too fucking easy! Movement distortion in the goggles makes everything much more challenging!

[@imadrabhi5991]

It's in the game, you must upgrade your goggles to unlock it along with various other visions

[@MaxPeino]

4-Particulalry in this mission he is acting during the day, it’s ok if it is like that in one or two missions, but don’t forget the beautiful night and her darkness. 5-I don’t have seen what else you got, but it will be fucking nice to see Sam (or the new agent) jumping of a plane, falling, opening his parachute and landing on a buildings top.

[@TheNintendogeezer2]

and anyway if you even bothered to listen, this is the action walkthrough of the game....there is a stealth one aswell...

[@Liberator130]

I'm looking forward to the game, even though I have some reservations over some changes (I hope we can get a non-lethal option for approaching missions). And if worst comes to worst and the game isn't good, we still have the other Splinter Cell games to replay and enjoy (I loves me some Chaos Theory!).

[@electronix6898]

I loved Conviction. I know I'll love Blacklist even more.

[@jakesteven1980]

Same to me for the PS2. The PC version is what I also get used too.

[@Youngbling76]

yeh, that's true. Conviction seemed like the end of Fisher's story. He served his country well, reunited with his daughter and live happily every after. A new agent trained by Fisher himself should have been introduced in the game while Fisher becomes the voice in the ear like Lambert. Everything would've synced well and there would be minimal problems with fans here. Idk maybe in the next SC; they might but for now i'll accept it for what it is and it's amazing.

[@haunterdub]

You can tell its Ubi when you see him scaling the wall/cliff alot like ACreed. Still looks good though, and bringing it to the current conflicts in the middle earth(east) makes it more realistic. Doesnt look like you have to execute them unless you choose too, but it makes it look bad ass.

[@JNChannel95]

I didn't mean new in gaming history.What I meant was that it's new to have in a Splinter Cell game. The point with my comment is that it's just good that there isn't only the same thing through out the whole game. That they instead have both some classic Splinter cell stealth and this new type of stealth that they have in this game plus that they sometimes even have things like that drone. Hopefully they've made the game so you can choose between being stealthy and not stealthy at most parts.

[@4Skyrim]

Ok his weapons on his back has physics and thats great, but where is his slings? Like most games the guns are unrealistically floating the air with no attachments.

[@Youngbling76]

The reason it is named Splinter Cell is because there is still splinter cell agents in Conviction and it still revolves around Third Echleon. Splinter Cell means- Small, Sharp & Deadly which Conviction presented well and this will too. There is no way to change the title ince the game still revolves around all that like I stated before; these games are still amazing. If you guys are waiting then you will be kept waiting forever and it's not going to change. Accept it & move on.

[@EXHellfire]

Holy shit, you're making sense. Somebody here is making sense! I can't believe my eyes.

[@Mii85]

I was not biggest fan of Conviction but this looks sweet as hell. Most definetily will be getting Blacklist if it has enough ways to sneak and doesn't force you to blast your way through.

[@GonadTheNomad_]

Actually, while the light meter is binary, the light detection, in Blacklist, isn't. An enemy might start to see you and investigate, they might be sure they saw something, but not shoot at it, they might be oblivious. It's like in SCDA, you had to light meter, but you had to use some common sense with light and stuff,

[@Liberator130]

Even though I'm hesitant to the changes they've made for the game, I'm looking forward to Blacklist!

[@Romeo-gr8ff]

I have internet connected to my PC but its still keep showing error of try again later to online ..I cant do anything with online ..plz help me ..how to online this game and play coop? Thank u so much.

[@idiotnoobbum]

i wonder how many people watching this actually played the first few splinter cells. i remember playing and re-playing chaos theory on my old windows XP...best game i had back then

[@tylerboy565]

You misinterpret Ubisoft's idea, watch the Ghost Playthrough of the demo, a guy gets through without getting detected, which reignited my love for this game.

[@brunogonz86]

Actually there were a few motives: Ubisoft is trying to match Motion Capture and Voice capture to make gameplay more believable, and Ironside wanted out because of all the violence. He'll surely be missed

[@junttimummo]

At 04:26 "Blacklist supports of a full range of gameplay from stealth to action". So it's only up to you how you gonna play it?

[@AyMinus]

do they still have the black and white effect when in the dark? i really liked that

[@MACK88xxxxxx]

It doesn't matter how many new splinter cell games there are, they'll never be as good as Chaos Theory

[@lolmetaknight]

then why not adding drones in simcity? pacman? or super mario?

[@117LiamCox]

Remember how in the original games Sam never liked being restricted by Lambert, who always told him not to kill people? I suppose now that Sam runs Fourth Echelon he can do what he likes

[@ElCabron889]

That's true. I do consider myself to be a fan of the original 3 more than the new 3, but I've been waiting for a game like this for a long time and I think the Splinter Cell universe is a good one to experiment with the mantle. Wouldn't hurt to have a good stealth one again, mind.

[@Phoenix_KDE]

true...u cant really see the gray unless its an up close shot...but man...they shouldve had a special edition of the game called the "Ironside Edition" with michael ironside kept as the voice actor lol...thats what really killd my anticipation for this game...but it still looks good...just interested to see what they're doing cuz i know they have a different menu system and multiplayer is going to be pretty different too...also they said more stealth so i wanna see that

[@sunnygeeeeeee]

next they will make a splinter cell game where its just a cut scene and the game plays for you. cant wait!

[@D_Jilla]

They should really design missions with different rules of engagement that will force us in a way to be more like the old games where you couldnt afford to kill someone. They did a little bit of that in conviction but they should balance it out more or bring different dynamics to the levels.

[@nicholsjoshua15]

I think having a tactical choice is a good Idea. It's more realistic, adds replay value, and makes you think and make decisions. The other Splinter Cells were fun and interesting but were far too linear. At first I was bothered by the change of voice actor (I like the actor who's playing Sam I was just bothered by the voice). Then I decided it was just a change like the change for Sean Connery to Roger Moore. Different but still good. Nostalgia fans are gonna cry but I'm just gonna enjoy.

[@AMGalego]

So just in case no one noticed, James Bond is on his 23rd movie and has been around for 50 years.

[@MrBravo048]

notice the mark and execute feature.

[@TOPNOC]

Everyone keeps complaining about stealth! Different situations call for different tactics. Hes still discreet and does not call huge amounts of attention on himself. He cant sneak around and kill everyone individually and plan on completing the mission in a timely manner. In spies V mercs, most spies engage the mercs rather than strictly avoiding them.

[@metalmario298]

the game won't be bad per se, it is just that old school Splinter Cell fans are disappointed by all of the non-stealth elements that are being added to this game. The Splinter Cell Series has always been know for it' stealth. If you go back and play the previous Splinter Cell games, you will see how different it is. This is the only Splinter Cell game with so many destructive options.They're doing it to attract a wider audience, but have promised that the stealth will still be there.I hope so!

[@LiquidAgent27]

That lock on skill seem even better than Agent 47's Instinct Mode Kill skill. Lol you get to lock on to you enemies and rush in and stab on guy while head shot another guy. That crazy. This game seem promising. Hope it's really good when it comes out.

[@saurabhdhamnaskar]

Yes,they have stated that they hired Eric for more fluidity, But I am just stating a possibility that if,instead, Ironside himself would have decided to retire, would you still force him to do Sam's voice? In there new splinter cell videos there are a lot of stealth aspects, even in the past games like Chaos Theory you could, in some missions, kill every single guy. like at Hokkaido. Sure they have added Assult approach, but they sure have not removed stealth from the game.

[@Sillywomanproduction]

Wow I didnt notice that , It is probably landing on the ground then facing the other way than you where facing before

[@gmannumerouno]

Chaos Theory was the last and best one I played, but I still need to catch up with the other two games.

[@Andrew1990R]

i loke the new gameplay so much.i think this'll be the best splinter cell

[@SmitedYourClaws]

They said that non-lethal takedowns and kills haven't been added yet. Hense, all they can do is show action. Calm down, you will have a choice on every mission what way you want to go. Action or stealthy.

[@kingkhan2894]

Wow, I guess I'm the only one that thinks this game looks really great.

[@meihyify]

So Sam's voice is different, but can you still hid the bodies in the shadows?

[@sourcecodephil8884]

They should've kept this version of killing in motion and mark and execute. Also the pistol takedowns like in other preview videos would have been nice. It's a great game but that would have made it much better...

[@BCFOX99]

At the start of the video it said it was after Conviction, so yeah he is old.

[@felpediazraday1894]

because this video is not the same as others in the scenes?
