Whatever button you use to takedown someone.

Cool, sounds sexy.
How do you tell Uplay is the culprit of the crashes?
Or are you saying the client/overlay crashed?

The client/overlay.
is that real?
We have a saying here in the UK, and it is "only in America" and I think that fits, in the UK they would be arrested in about 0.0001 seconds of that website being live
Why wouldn't it be? It's not like Third Echelon is a real organization within the NSA. Though Echelon is real, but not in the same sense as in these games.
Is there a reason why the tri copter's sticky shocker doesn't work sometimes? I mean earlier I thought it might be because it was too far but then I realised I could stun am enemy from an even longer distance than what I thought was possible. Then I thought it may be that I only have to hit them from the back but nope it's not that either. Pretty strange that sometimes it will simply alert the enemy instead of stunning him and these are normal guys not the armoured ones.

If you goto your Blacklist video config under where it list your cpu there is a verfication process you can change from 1 to 0. When I would play blacklist it had this long startup where it would check your pc to make sure your drivers and all that were updated. Well anything above my drivers installed always gives a driver crash so I stick to what I have now

you know, i forget that you can hide bodies... or at least its a thing on the scoring sheet. I think ive only seen 1 'bin' ever to hide a body

smoke screen and ninja around, and flank them.
I think I only saw that after install, and after the patch.
You might wanna trim down my quote by the way.
restart.
it's not like there is another option
Break out the SC 4000 and murder everyone. Restarting feels dirty to me, especially when they give you so many options.
Although on my non lethal perfectionist run I had to restart a few times
Anyone?
Restart. Don't care how far I made it. Always restart.
I don't think so.... What are you having trouble with? Maybe I can help
Doesn't seem to be working. I'm not talking about taking somebody hostage, I mean Sam was walking around like this:
Could have been a glitch, but it looked too cool.
First playthrough I just rolled with it, shot my way out if I had to or disappeared back into the shadows and started shanking guys.
Always restarting now though.
Huh, didn't shoot any lights at the Estate but got Panther on the way to
does that automatically set them on a Panther path? Because it's weird.
Gonna have to check the full ghost playthrough that Youtube player did because the first two areas are HARD and I'm not finding a clear Ghost Path without extreme luck in getting through it.
There's a backstory information thing in one of the menus. Go look for it, or play SC1-5 for the story.

Just had to pop in and say I'm really enjoying this game. It feels like classic Splinter Cell to me, and I love it. Grim's missions are fantastic. Difficulty is challenging. My only gripe is I can't stand the new voice actor, but what more can be done? I'm so surprised this game turned out the way it did. I was concerned after every piece of media released.
Holy shit, he just blitz through the first two areas. WTF. If I did that, I'd be shot to death. Didn't know that route
to the Estate's Panic Room Breach. Just climb the wall instead of going through the stairs and four guards.

lol climbing kinda breaks this game. you can bypass so much... and you can clear whole areas by hanging out at a window, lure people there, knock them out, repeat. You can even lob in a sleeping gas or or w/e while hanging!
Centerstrain is pretty boss.
Pretty sure we missed all the parts where he died about 20 times to get it right.
He basically just ran that level without care it's kinda amazing but I dunno how practical that is for "first run ghost perfectionist"s like me. He's basically replaying the level so he knows routes through it already, I didn't so the first two areas are "WTF lights and guards everywhere. YOLO! *runs and lucks out somehow on getting past the dogs and shit by the pipe in that one room the previews showed*"

is it just me, or does this look reallly boring lol.
bravo on mastering a level... but yeah. idk.
might be a mix of jealously and brainwashed of media and my desire to kill/knockout every guard.
Yeah we only see his perfect runs.
I've had perfect runs like that... I also hit retry about a hundred times a checkpoint.
You will love it.
Excellent, the gameplay videos looked pretty fun.

The multiplayer is awful. Why use P2P? Why in god's name use P2P?
Me and my friends have tried setting up a lobby (4 ppl) for hours, it's impossible.

its all about positioning... and none of them should be facing you lol. It's easy on the missions where you have friends 'taking aggro'.
does melee takedown make any noise? Haven't tried any tests but it doesn't seem like it.
Nope. You can takedown two people standing near each other, if they are not facing each other obviously.

Have you guys noticed that when using the execute button on a group of people while also next to them, he goes into a hand to hand animation. It looks super bad ass. You cant do it on non-lethal i think.

You can do it non lethal. Cross bow or stung gun.

shame that i pretty much only pop execute if I fucked up and need a way out. i should try to utilize it more on the offense.
Any youtube videos of speed predator runs? Ghost is kinda boring lol. wanna see someone breeze levels with everyone dead

You can do some insane execute combos if you're good at instantaneously tagging new guys as soon as you off the first guys.
Also, always activate execute within melee range. Sam will human shield closest guy, cap the others, melee execute the shield, and still have a mark and execute ready. This combined with flash bangs and kill in motion creates some absolutely sick and skillful predator play.

i needa see some videos of these lol. loved those crazy dishonored videos too.
does execute 1 hit armored guys(+ shield)?
