exactly...it's a fun game even if Terry's making me look like a total fool Though it's not as much fun playing some random person who's insanely good...I'd rather get my *** kicked by someone I know

Re: Splinter Cell Pandora Impressions

Bah. That's the thing that's great about this game. You could feel like you're doing really good, and yet you end up in the wrong place at the wrong time, and you get blown to hell. The 10 minute time limit seems a little short for my tastes, especially if you're trying to deactivate 3 of them. I think 5 minutes per zone would be better than 3...I run out of time in the last minute or two frequently. I don't like to go flying into a situation, although I can see the problem if it was a 30 minute game...camping spies would win every time. I can usually do alright at making myself scarce (or just flat out snapping necks or messing with Mercs), but it's the haul-***-and-deactivate-things-that-are-camped-by-Mercs-inside-of-10 minutes aspect that drives me nuts.

I think (personally) that it would be more fun just giving the spies the life limit, and no time limit. Maybe only give them time limits for sitting in one place before the Merc "spy satellite" or whatever locks onto their position, lighting them up like a Christmas Tree. Moot point, since it's impossible to change, I'm rambling.

The game rocks, but it's definitely only as good as your teammates. Playing with somebody who doesn't communicate at all is an exercise in frustration. Even if it's only "I'm in Building A, 2nd floor", you know you don't have to run there. Nothing worse than ending up on top of each other due to lack of communication

"I'm in building A, second floor", I think you just quoted me from last night.
I do agree on the time limit though. I find it frustrating as a spy to go up against a team that just camps out right next to where you need to get. You try to be patient and the next thing you know, there's only 3 minutes left on the clock. Then things become hectic.
Can you raise the time limit? I thought I played with some guys yesterday and we had 12 minutes I believe.

Re: Splinter Cell Pandora Impressions

Yep, you can go up to 15 in unranked games, I believe.
