Cons
Con Frustrating stealth sections
When trying to sneak past guards or stealth kill them, there is no discernible pattern that hey abide by. This is made worse as trying to stealth kill may sometimes miss (even though the item used is a silent throwing knife), which alerts every guard in the are, who will now know precisely where you are. This all can be frustrating as slight mistake, even ones that can not be avoided, will be ones downfall.
Con Short single player campaign
The single player is quite short (though it is not the main focus of the title, as multiplayer is the main reason that one would purchase the game).
