Ok so it seems to me everybody has been hit in the head with a crowbar way to many times because

all of the ideas are unbalanced now. Putting balance into perspective here :


if you wanna give a grappling hook to the spies :

-remove the ziplines

-make it so spies can grappling hook back into a vent that they cant co-op back up into ( maybe )


grappling hook for mercs :


- make it only repelling down from railings

-as west mentioned earlier make the repelling down speed faster

-Possibly add the merc to be able to shoot as he's zip lining down  Not scoped.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'd say that that would conclude that and those are great ideas of future use once the mod is complete to add things, but People please lets focus more about ideas that are in the current or at least wait for what the dev's have in-store for us.

I don't have one inch of doubt in my mind this is gunna be better then any versus mode we have experienced because , there is alot of pro people backing this project up .. i could go on further about the dev team but Xfire me or pm me and ill tell you my reasoning ).

and you will have the same dev team on the same project .. not a game of musical chairs where the devs are all over the place , which is the current mistake the current splintercell titles have made.. which was more about quanity then quality.

just keep that in mind folks .

oh, that's quite easy:
-spies have already way more vertical agility than mercs and need no further boost in this regard
-map designers can already put ropes, pipes etc into balanced places
-this is not spiderman, a ninja game or star wars...
What about freedom?
A hook would give the spies a certain vertical freedom and the chance to get to special places alone/quicker. The "no-boost" argument ist your personal opinion.

Woohoo, Finnally someone understands why this would be a cool gadget

A batman hook would be cool, and if you attached it to your waist, it would be cooler. Although, the maps would probably need to be a lot more vertical for this to work.

Slow down there sparky, I have been playing.  Just not with xfire on.  It's been bugging up my system lately and annoying me and I have been playing with it turned off.  It doesn't count your hours when you aren't logged into xfire.

-vertical agility doesn't seem to have much relevance when it comes to this game. You did state a fact, but it has no effect on balance because it will never change.
-If you took a zipline to go somewhere in a map.....85-90% of the time you go sniped in the dome. No "good player" would ever take a zipline without knowing he/she were out in the open to be shot.
-The spy is agile like a ninja....right?

Agents post is pretty nice....

It's not an excuse, it's what is actually happening.  Xfire keeps popping up on my screen when I attempt to play.  Possibly a keyboard issue?  So as of now, I prefer to play with it OFF.  Sorry.  You may catch me online sometimes without seeing me on xfire.

You have to change your chat key binding to 2 different keys.

Really?  Would that really be why?  As of now it's Prnt Screen + x = xfire menu

But it keeps popping up when I attempt to play and it doesn't come up when I push any other specific button.  I'm thinking that maybe my print screen button is screwed up and when I hit "x" it pops it up or something like that.  But, the problem with that theory is that it happens when I'm using my xbox controller as well.

What do you mean by "popping up." When you start any game, you should get a message in the lower-right corner that in-game chat is enabled. After that, you have to press the specified key combination to bring up the friends list/chat windows (default is scroll lock + x).

I suggest you take a look at what this combination is in the options and fix it to something to your liking (pro tip: don't use any combination with CTRL. It screws up keyboard functionality). If it's not the default, change it back to the default. If the problem is still occurring, you can remedy the problem by disabling in-game chat. This will allow you to have the program open to organize games, but it won't interfere with your gaming.

As far as the XBox controller: it's not compatible with CT versus. If you're referring to other games, then I can't help you there.

Thanks I'll try that later.  By popping up I mean when I'm playing the chat thing comes up in my screen.  Very annoying.  I honestly have no idea what it could be.  It only happens when pushing buttons, but I can't find the specific buttons that cause it.

As for the xbox controller, it is compatible if you use the right software (pinnacle profiler).  Agent is the one who helped me set it up so for the time being he thinks that he owns me  :D
