Archer grabs Kestrel and shoots him twice. He too has started running but before this turns into a Benny Hill sequence, I manage to get close enough behind him to hit the the melee button. It’s a risky move, but I saw an opportunity and had to strike. I see him peek around the corner of it and I instinctively get up and run around the other side. I quickly take cover, and realise we’re now on opposite sides of a crate. I quickly drop to his level, swearing about the controls as he laughs. I try to move to another side of the railing, but the stupid controls mean I end up hanging off the railing. I un-peek and wait for my health to restore. I can’t see it properly, but clearly he’s hitting me back. All of a sudden, my screen starts to tint red. I’m hitting him, but probably in the leg or shoulder – it’s not doing much damage. I peek through the gap in the railing and start shooting at him. As well as hoping that door behind me doesn’t actually open.Įventually, I spot him hiding behind a crate on the level below. I decide to stay near that railing from the start and move my camera to cover all possible entrances. The game has actually got me fearing in-game death. This is clearly a situation without a restart or continue option. I try shooting some lights out, but the normal game hiding mechanics don’t work here. I move around and consider going down to the lower level, but decide against it. ‘Why can’t they stay friends? They got on so well!’ I said thinking back on the hours we’ve just spent struggling through the final co-op levels, and on Archer and Kestrel’s own banter. Thoughts occur of finding some kind of Paragon solution to this – but it’s certainly just me versus him. SC blacklist will shed more light on archer and kestrel, though you wont get the feel of how badass archer and kestrel are if you dont play co-op on conviction first so I highly recommend doing so. I discover I have no gadgets, no sonar, no secondary weapons, no usual skills – just my pistol. You will want to play conviction first before blacklist if you want the story to be more immersive, especially if you play the deniable ops in sc conviction in co-op. I take cover behind a railing and start trying to figure out the layout of the area. I find out later that he found Archer’s OpSat, with Archer’s order on.

I figured Kestrel has just been told by the Russians to kill me. 'Did you just get told to kill me? 'cause I just got told to kill you.'
