There...Is...No...Spys Vs. Mercs In CONVICTION

dagger+heart= me very sad

Well now its REALLY REALLY REALLy Official

Official – No SvM Mode

I just wanted to clarify this for everyone: there is no Spies versus
Mercenaries mode in Splinter Cell Conviction. Why? The reasons were
touched on by Alex, but some more details are below:

From the beginning we decided to make the best co-op experience
possible for SCC. The gameplay developed in single-player supports co-
op very well because it lets TWO players work together to dominate the
enemy and reinforce that feeling of being predatory. If Sam is the
panther, Archer and Kestrel are like two wolves in a pack, working
together to take down their prey. SvM doesn’t fit this new approach to
gameplay.

We also wanted to be consistent across the whole game with our
narrative ambition, and Co-Op is really the best approach to support a
strong story.

However, there is one adversarial mode: the face-off, consisting of
spy versus spy, with hostile AI thrown into the mix.

Again, just to make sure we’re all clear here, there is no SvM mode in
SCC and there are no plans to have it come in the future as DLC.
