I've purchased this game about a month or two ago and I'm still hooked to this game. The multiplayer is just..so..GOOD. They recently added a ladder system and it added mucho spice for me. Has anyone played or bought the game?

I'm still in the single player mode, but the game is pretty sweet. Can't wait to check out the multi.

You're missing out bro, it's the bombshizzle

Oh yeah! I never really cared much to even try SC. But one day about a month ago I was bored, so I went to Frys and figured what the hell. I picked up SC 1, became totally obsessed, beat it in a week. Loved it so much and went and picked up SC 2. Beat it in a week. Cant wait for 3.

To be honest with you though, I bought it for the PC and absolutely hated the multiplayer, maybe cuz I sucked at it, who knows. But I love the single player, one of the best games Ive ever played.

The multiplayer mode looks like a ton of fun. I really want to try it sometime, though I'm not sure when I'll get the chance.

great game, multiplayer needs a good partner. w/o communication it's pointless, it's like going rambo on 2 guys with guns and you're stuck with a grenade of smoke.

The multiplayer mode in Spinter Cell, the system link to be exact. Do they insert NPC's or is it 1vs1 ?
And what kind of game modes do they allow you to do?

The multiplayer is either 1v1 basis (Non-Ladder Only) or 2v2 (Ladder and Non-Ladder). No more, no less. The modes that you are allowed to play are; Sabotage, Neutralization, and Extraction. If you want to know details about the types of modes just tell me, glad to help people who want in on SCPT =^_^=

iamtheone

Well, that kinda stinks if you and a buddy just wanted to play. So, there are no NPC/bots in these missions? Just you -vs- the other?

I don't think there are bots, but the game requires too much creativity for them to really be of any use.

I assume the PC version allows more than 2 players on a team? Not sure, but I'll try to find out. I hope to play this one at the next lan party we have.

No, its only 2 on 2. From what Ive played anyway.

Scipio

Hmm, it's kind of odd that they'd keep that restriction. I can't see how it wouldn't be more fun with 3v3 or 4v4, though more than that might be "interesting" and not "better."

Probably because if you have 4 spies and 4 mercs running around, it would take away the stealth factor. The whole point is to hide in the shadows and sneak past the mercs. If there was 8 players online, it would be to crowded and take the whole stealth feel away, thats what I assume anyway.

dun_ask

you're right about that and each merc, if you choose to, is equipped with 3 mines each. Say there are 4 mecs, that's 12 mines on a map. The spy is totally SCREWED. Then each spy would have 5 smoke grenades each, that's 20 for 4 spies. It'll get very bulky and crowded.

Yeah the game is pretty good, but I gotta say that I'm a bit dissapointed in the single player. The multiplayer's great though, but I tend to suck since I bought the game a few months after it's release, and everyone on it seems to be an expert already. sucks for me I guess.

dun_ask

hehe raffmano what's your SN on there?

Mr.Deflok

Splinter Cell 3 has co-operative matches against bots and Live players both. Look A-grade from here.

cheeterbo

man, that game is hard in multiplayer. i feel so bad when playing with an experienced player.

is there anyway to see a map of the place offline? or practice on a map to become familiar with it?

omega2K4

I didn't care for the single player that much. It sucked major ass, the multiplayer is where the main fun is. I used to play a lot on XBL, but I got rid of the game because it got boring.

yeah, just make your own game. and start it. you don't need anyone in there to play. Just yourself

Scipio

Wouldn't be a problem if the maps were larger, or if the gear kits were altered. I come from a PC background, so I count on games to accomodate larger multiplayer games.

That is true, Splintercell doesn't have that large of a community, if the game were to grow bigger then it should be a lot more fun.

I beat SC: PT in 3 days, loved the single player.

Tried the multiplayer a couple times, I totally suck at it. They were right about the regulation of 2v2, it'd just be too much at once and stealth would be worthless.

i beat it on xbox, dissapointed that you need xbox live to access the multiplayer. maybe someday. i thought the single player was awesome. but i am not a constant gamer. play one game till i beat it about twice a year.
