Yep. His new model/design also looks similar to default Shepard (especially his eyes). That + what you said with the table, totally reminded me of him.

I believe even earlier in production before they 'aged' him to be closer to his 50s or so yeah he was kinda a dead ringer for Vandaloo-Shep. Not sure why they didn't keep Conviction Sam though. Never understood how that was 'generic' though either.

I'll add you once I got on my PS3. Also, you're wrong about sticky cams. You can throw them by holding down L2. A throwing arc will appear and you'll throw the cam after letting go of L2.

and your main base is a aeroplane (the normandy is a spaceship but given the universe its something similar)
Thanks for letting me know!
in that one terrible mission in Conviction lol
The way Sam talks sometimes throws me back to Mass Effect 2 days. Too bad the antagonist is so boring
Since Commander Fisher found out the Paladin is his favorite ship in ALL the US military.
You can play the whole game without killing anyone. The last sentence doesn't make sense.
So i got this on Uplay due to video card
My friend and I used to be able to join each other when it first came out no problems.
After any patches this feature has gone away.
I dont have any VPN network adapter installed
I forwarded the executable through the firewall.
Still nothing
Do we need to do port forwarding through routers?

I'm not sure that the game/uplay forwards ports properly. My buddy and I had issues until we both did the following:
1) Re-checked that UPnP was on in our routers (obviously was derp).
2) Changed uplay settings to NOT use a proxy from within uplay client (don't know if this did anything.
3) Manually forwarded necessary uplay UDP ports in our routers.
Worked like magic after that. point 3) contradicts point 1) which makes me think that auto-portforwarding is not working properly.
Even when you play as Briggs. (
In FPS it would be possible, but extremely hard. But I didn't see the option when you're playing as him and using the sniper early on)
And when you're exiting Iran and playing as Grimm. Can you just not shoot the cars?
I had trouble with that also. It actually felt like you were rolling a D20 to get in there. I tried many things but none seemed a sure fire way to progress then I did it and I don't know why as it didn't feel like I had done anything different.
I dropped through the second window down the train, immediately got into the cover to your left and immediately threw a sleeping gas grenade. Throwing a grenade doesn't take you out of cover unlike the crossbow so as long as you can get into cover in time you should be fine. IIRC you don't even need to aim at them, a blind toss is enough to hit them with the huge AOE of the grenade.

Having more problems with Uplay. After redownloading the game, it worked until for some reason the game decided to download the two previous patches and now DX 11 will not work. The DX11.exe doesn't work either.
I am so done with Ubisoft games on the PC. Are the Steam users having these problems?

Finally started playing for a good amount yesterday. This game is really good and does look pretty nice on PC. Way better then Conviction though. Surprised how well integrated 360 controller works since conviction did work well at all was such a horrible port anyway. I did a Grim mission Hawkins Seafort and did it totally ghost,so much fun! A lot of content and things to do. Want to do a co-op sooner or later. Feel free to add me on Uplay : Ozgiliath is my nickname there. Also played a bit Spies vs Mercs liked that also.

No.
Good, thanks.
If you use the heavy armor, it's much more consistent (I think it's part of Charlie's loadout advice). You can take quite a lot of damage, it actually makes that part really easy.
Really? I thought the AI was quite good. What difficulty are you playing on?

Anywhere selling the PS3 version of this for cheap yet?
yeah, it was quite good aside from couple places in the main campaign.
Play side missions too if you haven't, Grim's missions are really great, closest thing to Chaos Theory you can find, they are not very large but level design is really really good and sandbox style. problem is detection = instant failure which can be annoying.

Game is incredible. Add me! I'm down for SvM and co-op.

Those side missions are really scratching my "Terrorist hunt" itch. We need a new Ghost Recon or Rainbow Six.
yeah, Charlie's and Kobin's missions are basically terrorist hunt and quite fun, last two maps for Charlie are quite good.
GRFS didn't have any TH like mode at all for shame (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
Those who completed the game:
stealth gameplay
And what about
Wow a good idea for a
bossfight, but the QTE events were annoying. Just grabbing him should have been enough
did you watch all the credits?
Sam & the elephant

And what about
the post credits scene. I only saw Sam entering the room with Vic & Sadiq, and expected more. Did I accidently skip something?

I was playing a couple of grim's missions earlier and as much as i like detection=fail it got frustrating pretty quick
I agree. I'd love to see Kate Drummond do more games. She's fantastic. I'd rank her up there with Jennifer Hale.

Probably a set up for a sequel.

I have noticed a trend in this thread. No one is talking about the sad state the Wii U online community is in. Ubisoft after 3weeks still hasn't patched the Wii U version. If this were the Xbox or Playstation community there would be an outrage. Look at the Miiverse for this game and people are really upset.
It's hard for there to be that much outrage when not that many people have a Wii U/ are familiar with the problems. Does it seem to be more Ubi or Nintendo's fault?
