Just a Mirror's Edge thought

[Cobelo]

I was kind of thinking of a bit of a Mirror's Edge concept where you would be an assassin, and i was wondering if it sounded cool. Here's a bit of a mission concept thought:

'Okay, all you have to do is snipe X person a mile away on a building awaiting a helicopter. You have the building you're on and 2 more buildings to use. The only one you can hit the target from is the middle building, which is taller than the other two. So, all you have to do is run in between the two outer buildings and snipe the guy as you run on the wall of the middle building in between them. Sound simple enough?'

Just a bit of a thought, not anything in the works.

Sounds reminiscent of Silent Scope in that situation. Although I will say that a combination of Mirror's Edge and a game like Assassin's Creed or Splinter Cell would be amazingly awesome. Especially if it was as free-roaming as Assassin's Creed, instead of linear like Mirror's Edge.

I readily agree with that statement. Now if only we could find a game developer who would take the time to do that...

It's called Assassin's Creed.
Except it's in third-person and set in the Middle Ages.

I was thinking a bit more first-person sniping-from-the-rooftops bit, but true, Assassin's Creed does fit most of that in the Middle Age setting.

Just a random thought. If Sam Fisher is an American ninja (basically, not technically) wouldn't that count as a contradiction to himself? no offense to my fellow Americans lol

In Mirror's Edge they have a time-slowing 'Reflex Mode' i think it's called.. but it would be modded to slow enough to get the shot off.

Try Thief Deadly Shadows, your description reminded me of Thief as soon as I started to read.

Well I guess in "it is a magical game world so I could be able to shoot a rifle with perfect accuracy, taking the recoil, adjusting for gravity and wind and all the other things you need to do, while running on the side of a building" it would be totally normal :|

Video games should always be completely realistic, obviously.

Of course. Didn't you know? Everything you could possibly pull off in a video game is completely batshit crazy!

would explain a few things...espically why that Pooka keeps following me everytime I pick up a pump XD

Isn't that the purpose of video games. Why would I want reality getting in the way of the Awesome.

Why? Couldn't a white guy train and become a ninja if he wanted to?

Congratulations - You are officially part of the problem.
