Splinter Cell is back! ...On Oculus VR.
- Thread starter IDontBeatGames
- Start date
New Assassin's Creed and Splinter Cell VR games will be announced today at Facebook Connect News
Appears to be an embargoed press release that was published as it even has quotes about the game. The article is in Spanish so I've machine translated it: https://vandal.elespanol.com/noticia/1350738007/ubisoft-anunciara-assassins-creed-y-splinter-cell-para-oculus-hoy-en-facebook-connect/

Though I guess this is the official announcement.
They haven't announced it yet on the event. I am confused by the tweet

I'm not watching it, just saw Shinobi tweet it so I figured why not make the thread on it lol

Most likely, stealth in VR is incredibly fun.
Instead of controlling a character in third person, YOU are that character, sneaking and hiding from enemies. Peeking around corners and planning your next move.

Did they really not come into this event with gameplay for either one of them? They've been talking about SCVR and ACVR since early last year. Lmao.Link here:

Unknightly is a thief VR inspired game, but its kind of short though.
Cries in Transference
Actually the game made me extremely nauseous and I never completed it
Ubisoft refusing to give people a mainline Splinter Cell game is fucking hilarious at this point.
Are there other VR gams that give you the same range of actions as Splinter Cell? Like how does hanging upside down work?
I'm just saying, Chaos Theory "Remake" in VR would be pretty sweet... (would avoid fan backlash since its the same game again for new gen XD)
Espire 1 has more similarities to MGS stealth but it has its Splinter Cell moments.
It doesn't have to be first person. VR games should experiment with different perspectives, even switching between the two dynamically can be interesting.
I'm mostly interested in the scale of these games. Are we talkin' about some smaller budget titles or a bigger scope one like Alyx (well, not exactly like Alyx but you catch my drift)
Most likely you'd be hanging from one hand rather than upside down since that's more natural but technically they could give you a context sensitive "upside down" action, as long as the transition isn't like having the world spin around you it should be safe.
You could do cool things in a Splinter Cell VR game. I hope it's good.
Maybe I'll play it one day.

Does anyone even think Ubisoft would make a good Splinter Cell nowadays? Every HD title was either bad or a way more generic stealth that didn't utilize any of the things that made SC unique.
Pretty much this. Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but there isn't any possible way to make a Splinter Cell game in VR and have it feel anywhere near what, a traditional Splinter Cell game feels like.
And no game play? Pfft.
