    New Specialization: Splinter Cell Operative?

    Any chance that we'll be seeing Splinter Cell Operatives in Division 2? I would LOVE to run around w/ Third Echelon Multi-vision goggles, a knife, and a pistol. THAT'S IT. Please, Massive! Make this happen!

    Honestly one of the best things this game could do is offer Sam fishers goggles just to light up the night

    They will give you the goggles, but it will have a 90 second cooldown between each pulse.

    And you'll need to have 2K skill power to get that!

    Stealth in this game is running as fast and as far away as you can past NPC's and hoping they won't notice you. I would love a stealth specialization though.

    That's a great idea, this game could really do with some specialized Stealth..

    Seeing how melee has been bad, unless they made some really weird gimmicky stuff, it wouldn't probably have a great idea to focus on melee and stealth

    There does seem to be some consideration to the amount of sound you make. I am often able to "sneak" by a patrol if I am walking.

    I had a terrible problem doing Roosevelt Island solo at first, until I saw a guide that recommended just running on the sides past the NPCs as soon as you got over the wall into cover that was out of view of the gunner on the boat. It worked like a charm. I was able to get to decent cover without them noticing me and take them all out eventually. Standard crouch stealthiness would be awesome though.

    Night vision goggles plus stealth take-down of any NPC unlucky enough to go for a leak away from group plus ninja smoke bomb in case of a need for a quick getaway broad daylight. Oh, and don't forget the throwing knives. Go Ubi!
