Hints

Secret Lab

When Jung must hack the computer to open the door to Irena, enemies rappel down from the windows. Before you tell him to hack, send your team to the far side of the room over near the fenced area. Then, run behind the computer and tell Jung to hack it. A trigger will activate and the enemies will start pouring into the room. Your team will take most of them out on the way to the computer. If one of the team goes down Jung will stop moving towards the computer and sit there (or Michael, depending on who goes down). Once there is a pause in the onslaught, tell him to heal your partner. You can then order them around as usual. During this time Jung was supposed to be hacking the terminal but killing all the enemies skips this part. Once done, tell Jung to hack it again. He will open the door to Irena. Micheal gets left behind. Watch yourself; there are enemies on the stairs above you and will pick you off as you come up, especially on under the realistic difficulty setting.

"Exclusive Gone Wrong": Easier entry

As soon as you start the mission, make your squad rappel down the left part of the building. Then, order them to go down until they are able to breach. After that, go to the middle of the roof with the opening. Drop an C4, incendiary, smoke, or frag and keep shooting through the glass. After a few seconds, order your squad to breach into the building. Finally, rappel down into the building.

Better vision through smoke

After you deploy a smoke, put on your thermal goggles.

Easy experience

 PlayStation3    Xbox 360  Another player is required for this trick. Start a game with 20 rounds for 20:00 minutes with 15 between matches. Use a rubber band to position both Analog-sticks so that you walk in circles. You will get 800 points for a game. which will gradually decrease over time.

Shoot grenades

 PlayStation3  To perform this trick, take cover on any wall. Make sure your weapon is on single shot, then fire one blind shot. Hold L2 + R2 then press and release Circle. A grenade should shoot about 20 to 30 feet around the corner. Note: This works with all grenades except for C4 and breaching charges.

 Xbox 360  To perform this trick, take cover on any wall. Make sure your weapon is on single shot, then fire one blind shot. Hold LT + RT then press and release B. A grenade should shoot about 20 to 30 feet around the corner. Note: This works with all grenades except for C4 and breaching charges.

Co-op single player mode weapons

During the Co-op story in single player mode, many of the guns unlocked in Career mode will not be not accessible (for example, the Desert Eagle and SPAS 12). However, the terrorists in Co-op story mode uses them. To unlock those weapons, play a mission in multi-player Co-op mode. Pick up the terrorists' guns that are left behind after they die. Finish the level with them to unlock them at the equipment menu. You can unlock the SPAS 12, Desert Eagle, and MG36.

Splinter Cell Chaos Theory reference

In the "Dante's Casino" level near the arcade, there is a machine labeled Tom Clancy's: Splinter Cell Chaos Theory.

Camera

If you are having trouble capturing your face for your custom character or you are getting a message saying picture is invalid, try the following.

The room may be too dark. Try to brighten it up. Sometimes the camera will not take a valid picture even if you have lights on, so you must take it during the day.

The camera is not connected properly or has been connected after the console has been turned on. This can effect it also, as the game is very sensitive to creating your custom image.

You must have an Xbox Live Account to use the camera feature. However if your Xbox Live connection is down this will also stop the camera feature from working.

Glitches

"Veteran Hunter" and "Elite Hunter" achievements

The "Veteran Hunter" and "Elite Hunter" achievements are glitched. The way to gain these achievements is to play T-Hunt on single player mode and not split-screen. Also, you can gain both achievements at once just by completing all the maps on the Realistic difficulty first instead of both Normal and Realistic.

Count Down: Easy completion

In Xbox Live multi-player co-op mode, on the Count Down level walk towards the elevator door. Hold LT, release, then press Left Analog-stick Forward. You will walk through the elevator. Run upstairs (wearing no armor for more mobility is recommended). Go towards the missile truck, and walk a little behind it. Hold A to interact with it and hide. You will win without the enemy respawning and gain 50 experience points.

Calypso Casino: Get on high roof and fenced off area

This trick requires you and a friend/squad member on the multi-player map Calypso Casino. Make your way up the stairs towards the helipad where you must bring the Intel to on an attack and defend mission. Once you reach the top of the stairs there should be two boxes overlooking the top floor where you can take cover behind. Go to the very first box closest to the stairs. Press Cover about two or three times at the right corner of the box then hold Cover. You should now be floating in the air. Do not move until your friend runs up behind you and runs into your back. When your teammate is running into you, begin pressing Forward and he will "push" you on top of the box. Now that you are on top of the boxes, there should be a railing next to you. Walk onto the railing then run towards the stairs and the railing should lead you around a previously fenced off area where you can drop down into and cover all three entrances to the helipad if your team is defending the Intel on the helipad. To continue, keep running on the railing past the fenced off area. You should be running towards the roof that connects with the elevator building. Run to the very end of the railing then run onto the roof. You now have complete coverage of the entire roof area of the map. It is recommended that you either watch the repels or elevator door if you have an SMG/rifle, or watch the far repel if you have a sniper rifle. If you have a shotgun do not bother going up there.

Calypso Casino: Go on the fence

Load a game that takes place in the Calypso Casino and make sure it is in multi-player mode. Walk up the stairs where the helicopter is located. Go to the to boxes that are there. Take cover at them while standing up and aim your gun to the right. Then, release RT and the Left Analog-stick . You should now be flying. Click the Left Analog-stick so you are standing, then walk on the box.

Casino Vault: Head through the roof

Go into the room that separates the security offices from Bravo spawn. This room is usually called the "broom closet". There should be a bucket sitting in front of a cart just before you get to the security offices. If you try to take cover on the bucket, it should force you to take cover on the cart. When this happens, look up and over the cart, then release LT and walk forward. This should put you on top of the cart. If you stand up, you will be able to see upstairs through the ceiling. This is useful to watch for approaching enemies, and you can throw grenades. You cannot shoot through it. If an enemy sees you, crouch back down or he will shoot you in the head.

LVU Campus: Watch into other building

Go to the roof of the LYU Campus level. There should be a ventilation unit to the far left when you come in from the staircase doors. On the vent is a little fuse box. Take cover directly on the fuse box and press Forward. If done correctly you should now be on the vent. Have a friend stand between the vent and the closest edge of the roof. Walk over him and onto the edge of the roof. You can now watch over the outside of the campus and into the other building.

LVU Campus: See through door

Walk to the left side of the building with the fast ropes from the roof. You will notice a large cork board. On this board you will see a poster advertising Assassins Creed. Note: This advertisement on this poster changes with Xbox Live updates. Take cover with your back to the poster three times during terrorist hunt. Have a friend crouch in front of the left door to the teachers office up the stairs behind you and open it. Even though the doors do not actually open, you can still see through it as if it was. This allows you to see if any terrorists are inside. This is very useful for breaching charges and C4, giving you very easy completion of this level. You can draw the terrorists to this door once you get down to eight remaining.

LVU Campus: Get on top of the roof

This glitch requires at least two people. Make a match with two slots and a private slot. You can do this with any amount of people. Invite a friend and send him a private chat invite. Ask him to meet on the roof of the spawn where the fast roping skylight is located. Have him stand in the middle between the air conditioner vent and the ledge on the far left of the entrances to the roof. Hold LT + Left Analog-stick Up in front of the vent. Release LT and keep holding Left Analog-stick Up. Release Left Analog-stick Up and you should be on top of the vent. Walk over your friend's head. Note: Your friend must be crouched. You should be on top of the ledge of the roof. After you are on the roof, make a right and go forward. Then, make another right until you reach the middle office room. Stop, then align yourself with the left edge of the small building. Jump off then walk in a straight line until you reach the end of the path. Turn to your left and you should see the overhead of the left catwalk/bridge. Align yourself with the edge of the overhead then walk forward. You should be on top of the overhead. Keep walking straight until you are at the edge of the overhead. Align yourself with the low concrete wall, then jump off. Follow the low wall until it ends by the stairs. Align yourself with the low wall below the edge near the light post, then jump off. Turn to your right where there are an abundant amount of plants and trees. Walk towards them. Keep walking on the sides of them. With the correct camouflage you can hide form the enemy and attack when they are close.

Go to the roof with a partner. Get in cover on the box on the right of the roof. Look up all the way with your weapon also pointing up. You will then be on top of the box. Have your partner stand to the left of the box, crouching in the middle. Walk over your partner and you will be on top of the roof. You will now be free to walk around out of the level's boundary.

LVU Campus: Take cover in mid-air

From Alpha spawn, stay on the bottom floor and walk out to the double doors. As soon as you get out, look to the right and there will be a fence. To get over it, follow the fence to the palm tree at the end. Tell a friend to take cover on it. As soon as he does, tell him to get off and walk to the left a short distance. Here, you should be able to take cover in mid-air. Tell him to look out to his left as far as he can. Then, have your player go to the side of the palm tree facing the fence. Back up slightly and you should be able to take cover in mid-air also. As your friend looks to his left as far as he can, lean out to your right, into your friend. Then release everything and walk forward, over your friend's head and directly into the palm tree. Walk into the fence, then walk along the top of the fence and move back to the Alpha spawn double doors. When you get to that wall, back up slightly, then tell your friend to crouch and take cover on the wall and get as close to the fence as possible. Walk onto his head then tell him to stand up. This should boost you up and over the wall. If you do not get the palm tree glitch the first time, keep trying as it sometimes requires a few attempts.

Ghost shot

When firing around corners, take out your pistol and blind fire. Hold down the trigger and the gun should have the animation of firing, but no sound or damage will result.

Bypassing Irena in single player mode

If you have failed the mission trying to defeat Irena, you will have to reload the checkpoint. When you do so, it will spawn you in a hallway. There should be a door to your right and another a short distance down the hallway. Use the door that is on your right when you spawn. When you open that door, the computer that needs to be hack will be directly across the room from you. Kill all of the terrorists but do not assign a team member to hack the computer. Face the back of the computer, not the controls, and turn right. You will see a set of stairs. Walk up those stairs very slowly (try crouching) and you will be able to ease your way past Irena without her seeing you. When you pass all of the glass windows you will see a metal door. Make your way to that door easily and "Saving Game" will appear. Once that has happened, just run back past Irena and it will cause you to fail the mission. However, when you reload checkpoint the metal door will be open for you.

See through any door

Have a friend with you. Go to a door. Once at the door, have your friend get in front of the it. Once your friend is in position, turn on your thermal vision. Then, get behind your friend. Look through your friend's icon that is above his or her head. You can now see through the door. You will be able to see if there are any terrorists behind the door. Note: If playing any adversarial games, your friend must be on your team.
