Tom Clancys Splinter Cell: Blacklist Special Ops v.5.5

Description
The Special Ops mod aims to open up Blacklist to the player, giving you many new options for tactics and customization, while removing many of the handicaps that made the game easier and as a result, less rewarding. You'll find it's much harder for the player to control the battlefield and track enemies. A fully stealthy approach is the safest but most difficult. Getting spotted can be very deadly if you are unprepared. You'll have to use a much wider range of tactics to evade and eliminate hostiles rather than striking from the shadows over and over - preparation is key. Hostile guards are sharp and deadly, and enemy commandos can be downright scary.
There are more options available now than the original game ever offered - I've done my best to expand customization, balance weapons and gadgets to make everything useful. Many ops suits have been modified, additional playable characters are available and gameplay has been tuned and tweaked in countless areas.
There are hundreds of changes, but here's an overview:
Most weapons and gadgets are now viable. There is no clear "best" - everything has strengths and weaknesses. Assault Rifles, Shotguns and SMG's all have a different feel. Weapon attachments have more distinct and noticeable effects. The tazer and both crossbows are all unique from one another. Most gadgets have been modified in one way or another.

Difficulty: Enemies are sharper, stronger and meaner. They will spot you much more quickly and are more deadly than before.
Expanded customization: Choose from several different characters and additional ops suits. Merc suits, a spy suit, Briggs, Kestrel, Paladin Sam and the balaclava from Site F are all playable in the 4E missions.
Installation:
To install, first back up your original blacklist.umd, then put the new blacklist.umd file into your SC:Blacklist UMDs directory.

MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP YOUR ORIGINAL blacklist.umd FILE!! Just name the original "blacklist.umd" BACKUP or something before dropping the new file in the folder. You can revert back any time.
