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.

I think you can change it, just that ranked games are only 10 mins. I agree, I'd like longer time as a spy, the 3 minutes or so per neutralization makes me rush a bit too much

I think you can raise the time. My only problem is those damn dectectors on the top of walls, just when I shoot it, theres a stinkin spy trap I walk pass and they know where I'm at regardless. Its defitnitly tough to play as a spy in this game. Breaking necks can only get you so far. You still have mines and spy traps to deal with. But from my experience yesterday, 2 good spys will eventually win. Same goes for 2 good mechs. Like TCrouch said, teamwork can and will help you defeat your objective. I have a feeling as the weeks go on and more and more ppl get into higher levels, the game will get harder and harder to play. Its all a matter of keeping up. If you dont keep up, you're toast cause there is'nt much luck to this game. Only luck you can get is to play someone who just got the game.

Re: Splinter Cell Pandora Impressions

The problem with telling your teammate where you are is, people like me don't always know the answer.

Where are you, I dunno.. somewhere dark.
