Splinter Cell Blacklist Chat

Are you getting the game? Down the road? Now?

What are you going to be playing the most?
For me its going to be all about spies vs mercs. I use to love that back in the day,

If anyone wants someone to do spies vs mercs and coop with let me know!

I got this game as a promo from Nvidia when I got my GTX 770, and it's not showing up in my Uplay game list. :( Seems like a common problem right now.

My guess is you will get it later on today. For my Metro Last Light I had to wait till like 3 or 4 pm day of release to get the key to my email.

Lemme know if you dlike to rock soem coop or Spies vs Mercs sometime!

Let us know how the game is. It's got a good metacritic score so far it seems.

Hopefully. If it doesn't show up by this afternoon I'll contact Ubi's tech support. They're actually not a bad lot compared to, say, EA. Usually pretty prompt and helpful with their responses. My promo code was incorrect and it took them less than a half hour to email me a new one.

I once had an issue with my uplay account, called them up, 10 minutes later it was fixed. I was honestly very surprised how fast they fixed the issue.

Yup, gave 'em a ring and they provided me with my serial number. :) Score one for Ubi's support. I should have just done this right away, but eh. Anyways, downloading now! Very excited to play this game, the IGN review has me thinkin' this is gonna be my sort of game.

I'm not convinced it's "THE" Splinter Cell game to get. It looks like more conviction in a new skin (new voice actor, new character skin, etc). It's very much so an action game at heart, not stealth like Chaos Theory. Don't get me wrong, I'm not asking for another Chaos Theory, nor am I fogged by nostalgia. I don't give a rats ass about nostalgia. I just love good games. I paid out $30 for Conviction and I knew what I was getting into because I was hopeful it will be something fresh in a new way. Turns out, I wasn't too crazy about it. It was well executed, just poorly designed. Blacklist seems like a slightly improved version of "more" Conviction. In that sense, I'll pay $10, no more than that. I think it's pretty fair for a game I could do without anyways.Elann2008

Ubisoft "claims" missions can be played in 100's of ways, just want to know if this is pure balony or not.

That's nice Anyone have Blacklist in their UPlay yet? I got the stupid email saying it's available, but still nothing.lordking65

I called Ubi tech support. Just have your order number ready and they'll give you a key to put into UPlay. Mine's downloading as I type.

Not really like Conviction imo, especially on the hardest difficulty.

Play it on the hardest difficulty and its more like Pandora and Chaos Theroy tossed mixed with a little of conviction, but it definatly has mroe in common with earlyier games imo (Chaos Theories coop, pandors multi,etc..). So far only thing that reminds me anything like Conviction is the graphics and certain aspects of the campaign, the spies vs mercs and coop is alot like the old games though.

The spies vs Mercs is awesome and im so glad they brought it back, its been to long since it was in a SC game.

I was not a fan of SCC at all, but this one is a good deal better so far. After seeing the old school spies vs mercs back on some videos being played I had to pick it up, plus add in a singleplayer and coop, its definatly jam packed and atleast after 3 hours seems like a huge improvement over Conviction. Running pretty good so far. The fact that everythign else besides Spies and Mercs coming back is good, is a real nice bonus. I was just expecting to enjoy the spies vs mercs.

Singleplayer campaign is not to amazing so far but the spies vs mercs and coop is pretty wicked so far.

Forget what review said this felt like a gumbo pot of Splinter Cell games, but that is pretty true, got the spies vs mercs godoness of pandora, the coop goodness of chaos theroy and the graphics of conviction, with a campaign that has aspects of all the SC games.

I'll be playing in a few hours. Still downloading because of this whole Uplay business earlier.

I got this game as a promo from Nvidia when I got my GTX 770, and it's not showing up in my Uplay game list. :( Seems like a common problem right now.

Oh wow same here. Sent a ticket to Ubi's support. Waiting to see what happens.

All I have is a download Uplay button. Nothing to download the game.

EDIT: Nevermind, I kept entering the extra Conviction activation key I had like an idiot. ugh It's working fine now.
