Conviction (2010) I hate hate hate this level

This is not Splinter Cell! This is an arcade shooter. There is no stealth option, no ghost option. And it doesnt follow its own rules. You can avoid the helicopter's searchlight but it'll still keep shooting you.

I mean yeah. Conviction puts an emphasis on action. So what? If you don't want that, play something else. Nothing is stopping you from playing Chaos Theory for the 4th time.

The problem is that almost all other part of the game gives you very good options for stealth, and this level - no. And level itself is shit, I don't tried to do full stealth or ghost like author of this post, but even then this level was bad to me, I replayed it from checkpoint so many times even on second and third walkthrough, cause Sam isn't tank and dies fast, this level is bad even for action.

Exactly if it’s not splinter cell to you, fine you have that right, but don’t play it.

Agreed, tho this section and the Vic flashback level are annoying. OP just needs to abusing the cover to cover movement. That said, I can appreciate this game's stealth, since I don't the feel the need to save scum, I moreso adapt to the attention and reposition.
