The reasons for the delay were never revealed, but it is thought that the gameplay was too similar to another of Ubisoft's franchises, Assassin's Creed, which was released in 2007 and involved blending in with an interactive crowd. While Ubisoft never confirmed this, they announced that the game had been pushed back to the 2009-10 fiscal year (ending March 31, 2010). On May 19, 2008, Xbox World 360 magazine reported that Splinter Cell: Conviction was "officially on hold" and that the game had been taken "back to the drawing board". The trailer is viewable on the official Splinter Cell website, and on the Xbox Live Marketplace. while several other notable landmarks, including the Korean War Memorial, the United States Capitol and the Washington Monument have been seen in various promotional videos and trailers. The events depicted in the trailer took place in Washington D.C. It demonstrated a more casual-looking Sam interacting with objects, such as tables and chairs, to disable enemies. On May 23, 2007, Ubisoft released the first trailer for the game. The screenshots also showed vastly improved lighting and shadow effects from Splinter Cell: Double Agent. The first screenshots were revealed on a message board with photographs of screenshots in a magazine featuring shots of the protagonist Sam Fisher, now with long hair and a full grown beard, throwing chairs and people around, blending in with a crowd, and engaging in a firefight from behind cover. Promotional images, artwork and the logo of the game were leaked on Septemin a RAR archive that included other unreleased games. Sam soon discovers that his daughter's death was no accident, and must now uncover why his daughter was murdered and what connections it has to Third Echelon, which has become bogged down with red tape to the point of ineffectiveness and corruption. He is now investigating the death of his daughter, Sarah Fisher, who was killed in a drunk driving accident during the events of Splinter Cell: Double Agent. Splinter Cell: Conviction sees protagonist Sam Fisher walking out on Third Echelon, despite threats from his superiors. For instance, instead of using his optic cable in order to look beneath doors, Sam will use a piece of a broken mirror off his SUV. Sam will not be able to rely on many of the gadgets that he possessed in previous games, so he must be more resourceful. Objectives are now highlighted on walls, usually of the location in which Sam needs to go, while cutscenes occur in-game in order to keep players immersed in the game. When players are in the shadows, the visuals lose color to indicate this, while enemies stay in color so that the player can see their targets clearer. The game also makes use of its visuals for gameplay purposes. Other features include the ability to shoot while hanging, and interrogating enemies using the environment, such as smashing someone's head into a mirror. This produces a silhouette outlining Sam's last known location that the enemy saw him, allowing him to alter his actions accordingly. There is also the "last known location" feature, which occurs when Sam has been spotted but breaks the line of sight with the enemy. The feature prioritizes the targets for instance, if Sam enters a room with two enemies and a light fixture and the light and one enemy are targeted, he will target the light first to prevent the other enemy from detecting him and then take out the first enemy. One of these is the "Mark & Execute" feature, allowing Sam to tag an opponent or object that allows him to fire at automatically. ![]() Splinter Cell: Conviction is host to a number of new gameplay features for the series. ![]()
