Ubisoft to merge Tom Clancy range into Super Game

In an interview with gameplayer, Tom Clancy's EndWar Lead AI Programmer Vinh-Dieu Lam spoke in detail about plans to tie all the different Clancy franchises together into one super game in the near future. Below you will find one particularly good quote, but click through to learn more.

"So maybe in the next EndWar you will need to attack Paris but before you can it may generate some sort of Splinter Cell recon mission or a Ghost Recon mission or things like that. But that is the direction we are looking at."

didn't come up when I uploaded it. Maybe people didn't catch it the first time?

that's how an fps mmo should work.

You chose a class and do missions and objectives appropriate to that class.

You're wanna do mission on you're own, you're looking at playing a splinter cell like game. Got a team of 4 or 5 welcome to a ghost recon mission. Bigger groups like 20-30 play like fps games ranging from cs/cod like to bf2 like. Then have full team missions with hundreds of player, some playing it like a strategy game, where players on the frontline have to capture nodes to get them resources while other build to help defend or take points (kinda like Natural selection but much bigger).

but none of the Tom CLancy games are FPS.

Everything else you said though sounds great 8-)

But aren't Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six Tom Clancy FPS games?

Jamegohanssj56087d ago

Lol prepare for a mega crap load of a game.

It's not like the tom clancy games are some of, if not, the best franchises in gaming in their respective fields.

Barely any franchise has had so many well scoring games gap so many generations and styles. From stealth, to 3rd person to first person to tatical shooter, from ps1/n64 to current generation. All things said and done they've made a lot of good tom clany games.

Johnny Cullen6087d ago

Wait, wasn't this super game meant to be EndWar?

Infact, HawX is meant to be a prequel to EndWar =S

Sucks2BU6087d ago

EndWar as it stands it very first-generation, and EndWar 2 or 3 will be some epic multi-gameplay war extravaganza

Forget discounts,If they want to compete with EA Access, they need to bump up the AAA Games that are on the PS Store and on PS Now. There weren't a lot of games on PS Now that interested me, especially for that price point.

Let's take a moment and think about this..

Sony, I love you, but take notes! EA Access has a lot of extras that sound great if you’re looking for a new loyalty program, that blanket 10% off digital video games will definitely save subscribers some money if they’re big fans of Electronic Arts’ video games. Users who purchase a brand new Electronic Arts Xbox One title a month will break even on that first game, saving $6 off a $60 purchase.

PSN store trying to compete with EA Access? What nonsense!

Total different things!

And they need to bump up the AAA games on the PSN store? What? All the AAA games can be bought on the PSN store.

And no, PS Now is also not trying to compete with EA Access, again something else entirely...

And no, EA Access is not good value at all if you do not live in the US! They give 10% off on digital game purchases, MSRP of games is €70, 10% off means they are €63 but I can buy physical copies during initial release for between €50-55. Then there are a gazillion sports titles for free that I have no interest in. The games I'm interested in I already buy so don't need free copies a year after their release. The only nice thing about it is the 10 hours early access, that's it!

Helden3359d ago

Just one game on PS4 (R6 Siege)
I expected more

Eidolon3359d ago

Tbat's like the only Tom Clancy game on PS4.. so that's ALL of them.

Aenea3359d ago

US only, why not add it in the title?
