Explore the advanced gadgets and weapons available to Sam Fisher in Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, including the SC-20K rifle and EEV.
Fisher's goggles feature three vision modes: thermal, which highlights heat signatures; night vision, for visibility in darkness but susceptible to bright light; and electro-magnetic frequency (EMF) vision, which detects active electronics like cameras and computers.
The primary weapon is the SC-20K rifle, which can be outfitted with different attachments. The default launcher attachment allows for four ammo types: sticky shockers and ring airfoils (silent, non-lethal, with airfoils best at the head), gas grenades (for non-masked enemies), and sticky cameras. Sticky cameras act as remote viewing devices, allowing Fisher to change their view, vision mode, create distractions, or release poisonous gas, and can be retrieved if not used.
Other SC-20K attachments include the foregrip for precision automatic fire, the shotgun for loud, close-quarters combat, and the sniper attachment for increased zoom and armor-piercing shots that can penetrate cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects).
Fisher's silenced backup is the 5-7 Pistol, featuring an Optically Channeled Potentiator (OCP) that can disrupt electronics like lights and cameras from a distance, though it requires a recharge period after each use.
Explosive options include lethal frag grenades, flash grenades for temporary sensory disabling, and smoke grenades for cover. Wall mines, which are motion-sensitive, can also be found and disabled during missions.
The Electronically Enhanced Vision (EEV) device is a binocular-like tool for scanning objects, hacking electronics, and listening to conversations with its integrated laser microphone.
- Utilize the different vision modes on Fisher's goggles to adapt to various environments and threats.
- Experiment with the SC-20K's various ammo types and attachments to suit different combat scenarios.
- The OCP on the 5-7 Pistol is useful for disabling electronic devices without direct engagement.
- Sticky cameras offer strategic advantages for reconnaissance and enemy incapacitation.
- Be mindful of the noise generated by certain weapons, like the shotgun attachment.
