    Oh you leave Kestrel out of this man, Kestrel is awesome. And it's not only because he is Russian. He is just a cool dude.

    Just because you crap on everything that comes out of or is even remotely connected to Splinter Cell Conviction or Blacklist does not make it objectively true. There are good aspects in both games (even if they are few and far between), and Kestrel and Archer (as well as the entire SCC Coop and D-Ops modes) definitely belong to it.

    Also, @OP we have about a dozen topics that talk about just that. As long as you personally do not have a big list or post/text that has some new idea or a detailed plan of what you would love to see precisely I recommend going to one of the already existing pages (example being those in my signature down below, one of them being the big topic created by I and Bob back when, as well as one that was created by some other forum members that were very active shortly after the release of Blacklist, or the links posted by the members here. There is enough topics to choose from and contribute to. Splitting up the feedback in millions of separate "Official/unofficial feedback thread"s does only serve to make the feedback more convoluted and makes it less likely for individual feedback to be seen. (No offense, just to clarify this post, don't see this as an "angry reply", I'm just guiding you to the right (already existing) topics so that all the feedback is in one place and can be noticed properly).

    Btw. I'm very interested. Who exactly is your source on all the "it's not too late to give feedback" thing. I personally think it actually is not too late, but you sound like you have some official source for that. Who told you that?

    it's not only because he is Russian
    So you ARE agreeing that him being Russian is part of the reason why he's cool...

    He is just a cool dude.
    Well he's certainly cooler than Eric Johnson's Sam Fisher or Briggs, but Kestrel wasn't interesting enough. All he has is the "He's Russian therefore people think he's cool".

    Just because you crap on everything that comes out
    I don't crap on everything that comes out. I give actual positive feedback WHEN IT'S DESERVED.

    There are good aspects in both games
    What games?

    Splitting up the feedback in millions of separate "Official/unofficial feedback thread"s does only serve to make the feedback more convoluted and makes it less likely for individual feedback to be seen.
    Agreed.

    I personally think it actually is not too late
    It's never too late to give feedback. THAT'S not the problem. The problem is that Ubisoft doesn't listen to US. We give them feedback, but they don't listen. They're not even on here anymore.

    No they just brought him back from Conviction and I would like to see sometype of continuation for that character whether it be Archer or Kestrel...

    My source shall remain hidden from public view unless they would like to reveal themselves....

    Then bring back Archer. He's a normal Third Echelon spy. Enough with the "Russians are cool" ****.
    I'd rather have an original American than a cliche Russian.

    None of the two should be bought back again. Kestrel should be actually dead, he got shot in the head in SCC, how the hell did he survived, can someone explain the fact that in SCC campaign he's inside a bodybag and Kobin is surprised to seeing him alive in SCB?
    SCC and SCB are a bloody mess.
    Anyway I'll be fine if they bring back Agent 1 and Agent 2.
