MTV:If there's a co-op mode that requires constant, almost obsessive communication, it's the one in "Splinter Cell: Blacklist." In my time with attempting to secure nukes on an Islamabad military base, I found myself relying on the voice chat in "Blacklist" co-op more than I have traditionally in cooperative modes in other games. Chalk it up to the deliberate pace and a mission which required me and my partner (a fellow journalist getting his hands on the co-op for the first time) to call our shots, pick our targets deliberately, and most importantly, never once alert the guards.

A previewed co-op side-mission from Splinter Cell: Blacklist brought together the classic elements fans love. It just didn't feel like a two-person operation.

Splinter Cell Blacklist won't feature a main menu, it has been revealed. The stealth-action sequel will instead bridge together its missions and modes with a hub area that's explored by the player using Sam Fisher. Missions will be selected by talking to fellow agents, or from a map screen that also displays the status of online friends for co-op opportunities. Each of the four agents will give Fisher different types of co-op missions. Grimm offers Ghost playstyle objectives, for example. Fisher's relationship with each of the agents will change as the story evolves. The hub area ties into the story of Forth Echelon being a covert unit that's situated in a plane, travelling the globe and chasing leads in multiple countries. The idea to drop a menu came from creative director Maxime Beland's frustrations with how multiplayer modes often feel disconnected from the campaign.

EGM: "Now, Ill admit that my time with Blacklist was brief. It may well be that once the game is finally out in the wild and people have picked up on the most effective mercenary tactics, the game will settle into a much more familiar balance. Even if it doesnt, Im not entirely certain that what I played was any less fun than my fond memories of Pandora Tomorrow and Chaos Theory; it was just different. Truth be told, I can already see myself sinking dozens, if not hundreds, of hours into Blacklists multiplayer. The rules may have changed, the balance may have shifted, but at its heart, this is still the Spies vs. Mercs mode I fell in love with nearly a decade ago."
