Whistling is back. I also love how you can make more use of the environment like scaling walls/cliffs and cutting open tents, felt like that was really lacking in Conviction so I can't wait to see the possibilities with that.

And I'm a bit of a panther myself. Well, a ghostly panther

Maxime said you will have in every mission a situation like in the demo when the truck is coming and you got the option to call for help to get that truck away.

Really ?!, I think that is the only bad thing I have heard about SCB, I hoped it would be more of "get detected, and reinforcements come"

To me Beland talking about Sam being the leader of 4E and getting support (still sounds absolutely terrible plotwise) sounds very much like AC Brotherhood. I was half-expecting for Sam to call in a group of Shadownet spies to sneakily assassinate everyone with some invisibility that makes them look like they teleport in and out.

Atleast that would be the class of badass Beland is going for.

You forgot to mention that we could dress up as the enemy.

I still think this is pretty awesome.

We can walk into an enemy base camp dressed as one of their own and carrying a dead body, then reveal ourselves and kill them all.

It takes infiltration to a whole new level.

That's exactly the thing I was worried about and he did confirm in the G4TV interview that such scenes will be available in every level, which is kind of over the top again.

yeeeaahhhh....I think that was a scripted thingy...not an optional gameplay mechanic. You may have several instances where you insert in disguise...all scripted...I don't think they have incorporated Disguise elements in.

I hope at least since he said Ghosting is there, that we will find a way around them.

I just got a discription of the extended demo. The extended version seems to have even more action. A part from a German preview, which is after the interrogation of the guy at the end:

"As if it was intended, there follows a section again, which we can not classify as the Fisher-universe: Sam shoots himself an escape route free, by accessing a surveillance drone, equipped with guns. There follows a sequence that we would have expected in Call of Duty, not in Splinter Cell. With the drone Sam kills countless guards and bombs a few anti-aircraft defenses as it is nothing special for him."

It does remind me of the Conviction version of Gameloft made for mobile phones where you shoot a jet with a rocket launcher. Not something I really like to hear.

well it was pretty obvious we will have those action parts one way or another, once we are shown the extended demo, I will have one question, Can we finish it stealthy ?!, cause right till the Van gets in was somehow stealthy, will the 2nd part be stealth-able too or not ?!

OH no......I really hope it's optional....I'm gonna be sad.
