Also, I don't care for campaigns, I never play FPS campaigns anymore, they really are all the same. Expand

    It's basically a glorified version of Counter-Strike with destructible walls and a couple of more gadgets. Which is not a bad thing. Counter-Strike is very popular. However, it is lacking in some key areas. Small number of maps. No dedicated servers. Cannot play vs. your friends. Only 5 v 5.

    Finally FPS which requires usage of brain unlike some retarded CoD or one of the million CoD clones.
    Awesome maps, destructible environment, great weapons, unlocks etc. GOTY material.

But definitely not worth your $60 right now. Issues include laggy servers; buggy netcode; limbs poking through walls (leading to stupid deaths with many cheating accusations); not receiving any renown (credits used to unlock characters) or XP after matches; the annoying (standard now) ubisoft payment plan, $60 for an incomplete game, then charge for credits to buy extra items and boosters to help unlock characters or items. There are so many little and large issues that I can't recommend anyone to buy it at the moment. It's a REALLY fun game, when it works. But it's really infuriating with some of the issues that the developers failed to iron out after the closed, or open beta stages of development.

    Also, f**k ubisoft. You get around 300 renown/match, and you usually don't even get any XP or Renown from matches, due to a really annoying bug, and the ops (characters) start at 500, going up in increments of 500 up to around 2500 (I think.) It takes absolutely forever to unlock all 20 ops at this rate.

    Anyways, the gameplay is great. If they fixed the netcode, and the annoying little bugs, I'm sure it could be a contender for CS:GO.

    Tom Clancy is turning in his grave. I'm not sure who took over when Tom Clancy passed away but they are doing an awful job trying to cash in on the legendary writers name. Tom always wanted his name to represent quality and that is why Rainbow Six was always known as a special forces simulator. Every time I played it since childhood I had a blast.

Rainbow six is the sole reason that fueled my interest in military life and eventually led me to serve my country.

    -The is probably the biggest disappointment of the year for me and probably any fan of the franchise. No single player?! What? Rainbow six always had an amazing single player experience, multiplayer was just an addition. This is by far the biggest negative the game has.

    -The game plays like a mix of call of duty and battlefield, this is not a good thing because Rainbow six was always unique in it's own style. It was the arma or flashpoint of special forces. Not a generic shooter.

    -The AI is stupid. I haven't seen such useless AI in years, I didn't even think it was possible for developers take so many steps backwards in coding the AI, but rainbow six siege just proves it.
    At one moment I was on one side of the room looking at an open door, I see an AI run up and hide beside the door entrance with his arm sticking out in my view. I just pistol his arm till he died. Then a second AI ran up and I did the same.

    -The game is a borefest. Like I said it feels like a generic shooter mixed with call of duty. I already played black ops 3 and it was crap, why would I want to play another call of duty type game this year.

    -Absolutely no incentive to work as a team. In Rainbow six it was a blast working as a team.

    -The levels are boring. Anyone remember Rainbox six vegas? It looked amazing at the time, the attention to detail was phenomenal. Remember looking out the window from the casino beyond the city scape and seeing little cars driving on the road in the distance? Well In siege you won't find that. The maps are boring and bland.

    -Destructibility is nothing new, just generally under utilized by game developers because they are lazy. Anyone remember red faction?

    -The rifle and pistol sounds, very unrealistic. As someone who has spent a lot of time at the range I can tell you this game actually has worse sounds than call of duty.

    All in all, I feel bad that Tom Clancy's name is smeared in this trash game. Please don't buy this just to show them we want a real rainbow six game and not call of duty.

    R6: Siege is Ubisoft's attempt to kill two birds with one stone by reviving a previously established IP and using a fast pass ticket into the competitive e-sports industry with one title. In doing so all they have established is that they can make games that are flawed by technical faults that heavily detract from an otherwise enjoyable experience.
    You assume the role as one of 33 playable operators, each with a unique and distinguished special ability, and play alongside four other players in 5v5 multiplayer attack versus defend game modes. Round are respawn-free, meaning if you die, you're out until the next round.
    Multiplayer is where this game is significantly flawed, which on further inspection is a big concern considering that this game is a multiplayer game.
    A reporting functionality does exist, something that is a must have for every multiplayer game, but despite this, it never seems to actually do anything. This is partially due to the consistent influx of hackers that swarm multiplayer games throughout the year, and also down to the fact that users reporting other players don't receive any form of communication on what action was eventually taken on the reported player, if any was taken at all!
    The matchmaking system is inherently flawed, and new players can expect themselves to be paired up with other new players against a team full of people that should be competing for thousands of dollars in the competitive pro league.
    The game is also riddled with bugs and glitches; some of which are addressed, but most of which are described as 'identified by the development team' and no more. So much so that they even skipped a whole DLC to provide a 'season long' (3 months) period of updates exclusively aimed at fixing issues, which was aptly named 'Operation Health'. Many players (including myself) will tell you that although this season fixed many bugs, for every bug that was fixed, another 10+ were introduced.
    It is evident by all of these attempts that Ubisoft are trying to fix this game to a point where it would excel at being a great tactical multiplayer shooter, but seasoned game design veterans like themselves should know that simply trying is not enough to meet today's industry expectation.
    As with most Ubisoft games, they try to emphasize the highly accurate and realistic visual graphics. What actually happened at launch was a terrible mess of broken lighting in nearly every inch of your screen, and textures that simply didn't live up to the expectations that Ubisoft themselves set during their E3 demo.
    As time has gone on, they have got much better, and the next update promises to improve the overall graphical quality of the game, so I have no real basis to fault them on in the graphics department writing today in 2017. Had I been writing this review a year ago, we may have seen a different story being presented.
    Player progression is an aspect of R6: Siege that I often find being misinterpreted by reviewers who haven't explored the game far enough to understand how player progression actually works. Ubisoft offers two versions of the game, the starter edition, and the standard edition. This pricing model allows gamers who aren't completely sold on the game to purchase a cheaper version where they don't instantly start with a large collection of operators (classes) to play with. They can then choose to unlock these operators with in-game currency, which cannot be purchased with real life money. This is a great move by Ubisoft which allows all players, independent of financial capacity, to experience all of the different operators in the game.
    Gameplay mechanics are where Rainbow Six: Siege properly excels. Players can use RC drones with built in cameras to scope out areas of the map before engaging, and many operators have different traps and gadgets to apply a multitude of effects (both positive and negative) to players who happen to stumble across them, ranging from concussion mines to toxic smoke canisters. These mechanics provide a fun and unique playing experience with a map that is dynamically changing throughout the round, promoting players to think on their feet and adapt to the present situation. This plays well into the re-playability of the game; you are almost guaranteed to never have a match that plays out in a predictable scenario that you have experienced before.
    Options menus are where most PC games fall very short of the mark, but R6: Siege is an exception to this. The game features a highly extensive yet immensely intuitive settings screen, and good news for some gamers, the game features out-of-the-box ultrawide 21:9 aspect ratio support. The 'Ultra HD texture pack' that they offer, which is more than 20 gigabytes in size, doesn't seem to offer any form of improvement to the graphics unless you're using a fancy Dell 8K monitor, but heavily decreases the frame rate of the game, so unless you want to be the very best, you'll probably want to pass on that option.

The weapons are interesting and have plenty of variety and the formula is solid. I have put quite some time into it and sometimes its great.
    The problems come from the community. I dont really have gamer friends so I play casual, i have never played a single ranked game. Unfortunately the game is really biased towards groups. It is really clear when you come up against a team who talk and know each other as they just destroy the other team. Which is not a bad thing in itself, but when you are in a team of randoms is is a gamble which rarely pays off. You often end up in games with some of the most obnoxious people you could expect, who abuse the vote kick because they are bored or scream and rant because you didnt do what they wanted. Despite the fact that they never talk about plans, you are just expected to do everything for them. Team kills are rife and i dont mean accidental ones when people just walk into your firing line. Expect to be killed by your own team on 3/5 matches, either for not being telepathic or just for being the first one they see.
    If the game takes a minute to load, because it wont start until the whole player count are fully loaded up and ready (a good thing), then get ready to see a chat full of unnecessary and offensive nonsense.
    The calibre of your random team mates goes downhill drastically when school is out, a clear difference. to the point that i wont play evenings or weekends just because it is not fun.
    Ubisoft seem to take half hearted attempts to stem the toxicity but it makes no difference. For a while they were banning all over the place for toxic behaviour and the game became a nicer place for it, then they let up and its back to being unpleasant again. In my opinion they should be policing the game better in some way, it is a really high profile game and they should be making a point with it.

    if you have a good group of friends then i imagine this game is awesome. The game itself is great, well supported and kept fresh and interesting. If it wasnt for the free reign of trolls and toxicity its would be an 8-9 for me, which i think is a real shame.

    My biggest problem with R6S is the amount of pointless restrictions and omissions in the game.

    Defenders can block doors and use remote explosives but don't get shields, flashbangs or decent DMRs; attackers are not allowed to use the heartbeat sensor or block the doorways behind them. There are no destructible light sources or thermal scopes. Even though there are cameras in the game,

There are no destructible light sources or thermal scopes. Even though there are cameras in the game, motion detection alarms are not an option. It's as if Ubisoft were trying to make Counter-Strike with mutually exclusive classes instead of a proper next gen squad tactical game with customizable loadouts.

    While the maps are decent, they also have an element of luck to them, with some positions being easy to defend and some downright atrocious for any mode, and the position itself being random and not changeable (can't move the hostage/container/bombs). Getting the short end of the stick is never fun.

    And mechanically it's not very fun either. Instead of deployables being placeable via their projected model like in many other games, R6S forces the operator to shuffle back and forth until they magically raise their hands into the 'can deploy' position. It's not realistic, it's deliberately crippled control. Of course, barbed wire, bear traps and whatnot can not be placed on stairs, no, sir. Only on flat surfaces with at least a meter of free space behind them (for the operative to stand when deploying). All the traps, even the mechanical ones, have IFF, e.g. the barbed wire doesn't slow down allies. MAGIC!

    When the game works, it feels good. Yet, most of the time it just feels like "Game1 and Game2 did this so much better" and makes me wish for far more freedom in choosing loadouts and doing things.

    Gameplay wise this game is great, shooting feels nice, tactical options are giving a nice touch to your usuall run and kill. Thinking is almost as important as good aim.

    Unfortunatly matchmaking is a joke so at first you will be crushed by veteran players, either high level/rank or smurf accounts. This game is half made of smurf accounts. Strating from lvl 20 you may play rankeds where low ranking players will be much closer to your lvl of skill. This brings another problem as veteran players expect you to know maps etc.

    Toxic comunity is middle name of this game. You gonna be yelled at, and they gonna rage on chat. Occasionally you will be kicked or teamkilled. Its normal. That said there are also nice people in this game, generally based on my experience in Europe, 25% are toxic, 10% are nice, and rest simply doesnt give a **** Playing casual means nothing, they rage all the same.
    Game is also plauged by bugs. Every now and then im throwed out from mm because "The game you are trying to join is full." One day i couldnt play at all because mm wasnt working at all, so i couldnt find a match.

    Netcode and hitboxes are a big flaw too, sometimes it registers hits strangly, you see that you or enemy was aiming in one place and bullets fall in another (im talking about single shoots no recoil included). Sometimes in a death cam i can see that enemy is standing not where i saw him on my screen.

    Game isnt cheap at least by my standards, you buy this game and still have to unlock operatos. I bought starter edition as i dont mean a little grind. Time to unlock one basic op is around 10 hours. On standard edition it is much faster and takes up to one hour.

    As for fixing this game by ubi, I simply dont believe they are able to. Developers are working slowly, which can be a good thing, but they are workign to slowly. Most of bugs i have been experiencing are in this game from begining. When i bought this game about 2 week ago i got 2 free ops instead of 6. I contacted ubi support, but they werent able to fix this. So if they cant fix missing operators i doubt they can fix netcode etc. Most of problems are persent because of using Anvil engine, known from AC series, it doesnt work in multiplayer shooter with destructable objects.

    After considering all of the above i can give 5 out of 10. If all of the problems would be removed we would have 9/10 tactical shooter, sadly i doubt it will ever happen.

    The way this game has been designed is awesome, I never played a FPS like this before. One bullet kill (headshot) with every weapon. Map designed to offer an infinity of possibilities with the new operators offered by Ubisoft every 3 months. The gadgets of the operators that allow you to create real strategies for attacking and defending rounds with a good team. And finally, the gunfights are uncredibles.

    And then..... And then... the **** load of "NOT OKAY" things comes to punch you right in the face...

    - But what are these "Things" you're speaking of my dear rager ?
    - Oh, really bruh ? You don't know ? Here is the list :

    Headshots (HS) that are not headshots, in both ways. Someone not aiming the head and doing a HS or you (or your team mates) aiming the head but not doing an HS. Two possibilities, one, the hit regulation is shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit (yeah yeah, this much "i"), second, their servers can't handle this much of players at the same time. Basically, when you aim at the head, you expect your shot to do a nice and smooth headshot right ? Nununununununununu, not with Ubisoft bruh. Just watch and cry cuz there is nothing you can do.

    Then comes the matchmaking. Just to be clear, I'm not speaking about the ranking system (let's not make this list too long as it is already), but the actual system that make you join a game for example. This system is incredibly buggy, it will not allow you to rejoin a ranked game after a connexion issue or even better it will make you join a ranked game after you canceled your matchmaking request. Sometimes you shall not be able to play with your friends cuz the game doesn't want you to create a squad. This system will do everything it can to f**k your sessions with your friends.

    Now let's do a quick window on sync. issues. You know this time when you saw a closed door that was actually opened for the server and you died because it was opened for the enemy as well ? Nope, you don't ? Welcome to R6S.
    But, do you remember this time you launched a ranked game and your game ended up crashing at round 1 ? Nope, you still don't ? Too bad, again, welcome to R6S.

    Last, but not least, the community. OMFG. I thought overwatch had a toxic community. That was before my first game of Siege. You shall see people Team Killing you because you took "their" operators or because you did not do as they wanted it to be. You think it's a small issue ? Sure, no problem. Just try to play two casual games without being insulted or Team Killed.

    Oh, I almost forgot, there is many, sorry, MANY hackers. I guess it's part of the game.... lol

    But to be fair...

    No, just kidding, there is not such thing in R6S.

    On the other end, if you can go over these "things" I'm talking about then its the greatest FPS you may ever play. Hope this can help.

    This game is amazing and awfull at the same time, so I thought 5 was a good grade.

    Peace.

    Way back in 1998 I bought this game called Rainbow Six at CostCo. It looked pretty cool, but when I loaded it up the first time I was blown away.

I was in heaven, and spent hours drawing up the perfect plan to rescue a hostage or diffuse a bomb.

    Way back in 1998 I bought this game called Rainbow Six at CostCo. It looked pretty cool, but when I loaded it up the first time I was blown away. The ability to plan missions and manage a team, set waypoints and go codes and rules of engagement. I was in heaven, and spent hours drawing up the perfect plan to rescue a hostage or diffuse a bomb.

    I would go on to play Rogue Spear and Raven Shield and the series just got better. Then it started to go downhill, with future iterations like Lockdown lacking the depth and quality of their predecessors. So along comes Siege and on one level it not only meets but exceeds the game mechanics of previous Rainbow Six titles in a big way. But on another level it falls way short, simply because UbiSoft's emphasis is on drawing in the multiplayer crowd (i.e., young console gamers). So there is no single player campaign, you have no bots to manage, no planning phase. There is minimal support for co-op. You can't control mission parameters like the time limit, number of enemies, map, mission type, number of rounds. You simply get a random map with a random mission type for whatever your chosen difficulty is. There is also no map editor so you must make do with the official maps provided. So on the whole, the game has very little content for gamers who are interested in the core RS experience established in games like Raven Shield and Rogue Spear. Rainbow Six has always had multiplayer pvp, but the heart of the series has always been tactical cooperative mission planning and execution.

    The gameplay itself is great. There are many large and well-designed maps. The graphics and animations are terrific. The shooting mechanics are fine, and the characters you can unlock have a lot of neat tricks they can do, from breaching charges to emp grenades. Using the destructible environments to create new sight lines or entrances is great fun. The drone is cool and very useful. The downside of the situation missions and terrorist hunts is they sometimes take the "waves of enemies" approach that is more CoD than tactical shooter. And the inclusion of suicide bombers in every mission that are more Jason Vorhees than a human enemy is kind of ridiculous. Still, the action is a lot of fun.

    Another negative for me is the whole cash-grab aspect of this game, with a rewards system that encourages multiplayer players to spend even more money on top of this game's already steep price tag of sixty bucks to get important upgrades quicker. And charging money for things like weapon skins that should have been opened up to the modding community like other games (e.g., Skyrim) do.

    Siege is a good game for what it is, but for me it's not a fully Rainbow Six game, it's more a game for the CoD crowd, just like the new Tomb Raiders are not fully Tomb Raider games, but are more for the Uncharted crowd. Without any real support for single player or co-op, the game ultimately lacks staying power since playing options will diminish as the online community shrinks over time. I expect Siege will end up on a dusty shelf or uninstalled on Steam for most players by the end of the year.

    There's a lot you can say about Siege that is positive, but the developers, even during this "operation health" project that they've claimed will improve the game, are never fixing the critical issues that make the game have no incentive for you to even try and play.

    A few examples:
    It takes 10 games to get a rank assigned in Ranked mode. The game rigs the 10 games so you are almost always with randoms and usually other unranked players, but rarely against other unranked players and usually organized teams.
    Upon being ranked, you will be given a poor rank thanks to this even if you perform well (Because the rank system is extremely volatile and even if you get 30 kills, losing is still that punishing), and you will begin waiting 10-15 minutes for a game because it now refuses to put you with anyone other than those at said horrendous ranks, but the game will continue to tell you that you will only wait 1 -2 minutes, and will continue blatantly lying at all times.
    There's no requirements for people to have before playing Ranked, so people jump straight into Ranked and ruin it for everyone else after just learning the keybinds in on game of casual. This is a problem with the community, but it's one that is critical and fixable by the devs.

    The only reason this game hasn't become as horrendous as Counter Strike Global Offensive is because, unlike Valve, they haven't started banning people for complaining on the forums. Yet.

    Rainbow Six: Siege fits a missing hole in multiplayer FPS games of which I've been searching for quite some time: a hardcore, squad based close quarters experience. You may be thinking that Counterstrike offers this too, but the experiences are very different.

    Rainbow Six: Siege fits a missing hole in multiplayer FPS games of which I've been searching for quite some time: a hardcore, squad based close quarters experience. You may be thinking that Counterstrike offers this too, but the experiences are very different.

    Rainbow Six Siege provides a very interesting dynamic between the two teams: the defenders hold a position of extreme control over the attackers, who spend their time slowly wresting control from the defenders, either through direct confrontation or taking their resources apart.

    The difference between the two teams is striking: the defenders have access to fixed position CCTV that offers a huge amount of visibility in a fixed-- and easily destroyed position-- whilst the attackers have access to drones, which offer mobile visibility but from the level of a small rodent, affording the attackers less direct information but the ability to see any part of the area. The defenders are given time to set traps, put up barricades and attempt to funnel the movements of the attackers into specific chokepoints, whilst the attackers are given flashbangs, explosives and longer range weapons to shoot into the buildings.

    This set up creates a lot of tension, as defenders feel like homeowners experiencing a break in whilst the attacking team feel like unwelcome invaders in a hostile world, which has helped to create one of the most intense multiplayer experiences I've had in a while.

    The slower, more methodical pace required by both sides and reliance on information and teamwork creates a solid experience, but one which requires a few friends and a teamspeak/discord server. Playing which a matchmade team just does not work as well, as many will be averse to using the microphone and so information is not distributed to the team fast enough.

    Graphically, the game is serviceable: weapons tear up scenery, explosions and smoke pop off all around you and lights reflect across the floor as you make your way through the match. This is great, but the graphics can sometimes feel a little flat, which can make distinguishing between the many different operators relatively difficult.

    The audio design is where the game comes into it's own. You will quickly find yourself relying on the various sounds heard throughout the level, from the zipping noise of a rappel to the heavy footed running of an enemy above you locating the objective. All of these instill a sense in more experience players and create some very tense moments: in a recent game I was sprinting toward a hostage when the floor below and wall to the side of me erupted into a hell of bullets as two enemies had picked up my footsteps.

    The destructible environments of the game are top-notch. Walls blow apart, barricades are destroyed and hastily rebuilt and bullets fly through soft surfaces, creating another level to the map design and engagements felt throughout.

    Though the game is not perfect due to difficulties playing when friends are not around and the graphics can make things less clear than they could be, I would still recommend picking this game up in any sale.

    [ENGLISH]
    Despite being from Ubisoft, I can assure you that this game is very good. If you are a person who likes to play competitively, I recommend it.
    It is a very realistic game, tactical and strategic, that is, a difficult game.
    If you really want to be a professional in this game, it will take you many hours. I, for example, to stop being useless, I had to play 24 hours. But with patience and dedication, you can fall in love with this great title.
    The tension that gives you when playing, is great, and the feeling when winning a round, indescribable.
    Each character has a different ability and that makes it more entertaining. For example, we have one of the Russians, Fuze, who throws numerous grenades into a room through a wall or window. It is very annoying, but for this we have in the opposite team, Jager, which can place in the room, an artifact that eliminates the bombs that enter the room, that is, Fuze is ****
    If you want to unlock new characters without using real money, I must announce that it is very expensive, and needs MANY hours of play.

    In short, I recommend your purchase if you are a patient player and veteran / professional in the shooter.

    PS: To play it I recommend that you have good helmets and good Internet. Another important point to comment, is that I do not recommend buying the "starter edition" version (€ 15), it's not worth it. Buy the normal edition.

    [ESPAÑOL]
    A pesar de ser de Ubisoft, puedo asegurar que este juego es muy bueno. Si eres una persona que le gusta jugar competitivamente, te lo recomiendo. Es un juego muy realista, táctico y estratégico, es decir, un juego difícil.
    Si realmente quieres ser un profesional en este juego, te llevara muchas horas. Yo, por ejemplo, para dejar de ser un inútil, he tenido que jugar 24 horas. Pero con paciencia y dedicación, puedes enamorarte de este grandísimo título.
    La tensión que te otorga al jugar, es magnífica, y la sensación a la hora de ganar una ronda, indescriptible.
    Cada personaje tiene una habilidad distinta y eso lo hace más entretenido. Por ejemplo, tenemos a uno de los rusos, Fuze, el cual lanza numerosas granadas en el interior de una habitación a través de una pared o ventana. Es muy molesto, pero para ello tenemos en el equipo opuesto, a Jager, el cual puede colocar en la habitación, un artefacto que elimina las bombas que entren en la sala, es decir, fastidiaremos a Fuze.
    Si quieres desbloquear a nuevos personajes sin utilizar dinero real, debo advertirte que es muy costoso, y necesitaras MUCHAS horas de juego.

    En fin, recomiendo su compra si eres un jugador paciente y veterano/profesional en los shooter.

    PD: Para jugarlo recomiendo que tengáis unos buenos cascos y buen Internet. Otro punto importante a comentar, es que no recomiendo comprar la versión "starter edition" (15€), no merece la pena. Comprad la edición normal.

Each character has a very specific job and gives the team a specific advantage or counter to an enemy operator.

    If you enjoy tactical shooters and want to get into a highly competitive community, this is for you. The game strives to find balance between a lore-driven, atmospheric hero shooter and a simple to follow tactical fps game for esports fans. If you click with this game, you will love it, however for those desiring a more military focused game like Arma or a run-and-gun shooter like Call of Duty you will likely find the game not to your taste.

    Tl;dr: This game is worth a shot for those who are fans of tactical shooters, grab it on sale and play with friends for the best experience.

    You will troll
    You will use an operator strat incorrectly earning a shout from a teammate
    You will try to rush but fail
    You will die by a rushing ash/amaru
    You will do all of these things in the start
    You will encounter crashes/bugs/messed up hitboxes
    You will meet the annoying blitz
    But in the end it'll be all worth it

    Seriously tho, this game with the combination of the different operators with unique guns and skills (excluding the new season ops along with operation phantom sight) and the maps which you can do virtually anything, makes the game unique and fun to play, even if you solo que. So give it a shot, if you like tactical shooter games (not Cod) this game is for you.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best shooters of recent times, a very interesting concept of the game. One side is storming the building, the other is defending it. Lots of weapons and operatives.Full destructibility of the map, which gives almost complete freedom of action. do you want to play by destroying everything in your path? Do you want to make a hole in the ceiling and kill opponents through it? All this and more can be done! You can also make holes in walls, and kill enemies through . You can come up with different tactical plans, one goes to the point under the smoke, the other puts a deactivator (this is the goal of the attackers), the other covers the two of you, the fourth puts traps to make it harder for the defenders to get to the deactivator . And this is the most primitive plan. The game has a very large selection of gadgets, which distinguishes each game from the previous one. This is one of the disadvantages-poor damage Registration.(sorry for the errors, I used a translator)) Expand

I have been playing this game since Operation Health and still, I see people with a higher rank than me and they have been playing this game a lot less than me. I already got 15 messages this season (VOID EDGE) about giving me my MMR back because I played against a cheater and remember I AM IN SILVER, so I can't imagine how many hackers are there in higher ranks than that.
    Also, I hate how they added a battle pass system but you don't get it when you buy a season pass. You only get a 10% discount on it. I know that those are just cosmetic items but I don't want to pay 25€ for only 6 operators a year with recycled weapons and poor, boring abilities. I can't even remember when they last added a new map or a new weapon. And Ubisoft when you are only reworking maps why are you reworking maps which no one asked to rework. There used to be a map called Oregon, the best map in the game, easy to play on, not hard to remember, balanced between attackers and defenders and they ruined EVERYTHING about this map. Or for example, Skyscraper, used to be in the ranked playlist for almost 3 and a half years until they decided to remove it from every online game mode. Why don't you just rework it Ubi? But this is not everything, there is another topic... HITBOXES. Hitboxes in R6 are the most inaccurate of all games I ever played. If you are a player who can flick then you are **** screwed. You can shoot how much you want with the most accurate, fastest firing gun in the game but it won't register a hit. And have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Teamwork the wise? You didn't? Yea, me neither. In lower ranks, as I mentioned some weak players can't shoot, hear and they can't even talk. And don't tell me that they just don't have a mic, THEY DO! If they wouldn't it wouldn't show the f*****g icon next to their name. Glitches... Glitches... I still have nightmares about rubberbanding. Glitches in R6 are everywhere and Ubi isn't doing anything about it. Or when they are, they make it even worse. Clash, she was banned like 4 times from the game so they could rework her. She could even shoot through her shield. The servers are very bad. They are that bad that I was once waiting ONE HOUR for the match to start. But everything isn't just bad about this game. Mechanics are good. Destructible environment, counters to all operators. They care about the fans too. No other game except Battlefront 2 is giving things people want. They even added ACOG to BOSG (the meme gun). But that's about it. I can't even remember the last time I was happily playing this game. So my conclusion is ...
    Save your money and buy a better game for example every other game. Or wait until they fix it (that will never happen). I will keep editing this review so it can be most accurate to the stage of the game.

    -4.12. 2021- I stopped playing this a year ago and it still hasn't changed. It's still the good **** old matchmaking. I am really worried about the game's health because it looks like it has got a **** brain tumor. But I'll at least come to the game's funeral to **** in the coffin with other thousands of people so you better buy the biggest you can find Ubi.

    -29.5. 2022- Started playing this game when the new season came out because I believed that it would be fun again... I was wrong. It's the same good old **** Braindead teammates that leave AT LEAST once every match. Maps are literally unplayable for the attackers. You can only win the game if you start as defenders because you will most likely win the first 3 rounds and the attackers will have already given up by now. But that only happens maybe once every 20 rounds because from my experience I start as an attacker in 90% of my games so you can imagine how many of them I win. This season I somehow got worse after 6 years of playing this game. Last season I finally hit Plat 3 (still not my actual rank) and this season the highest I got was LOW Gold 2 so that only shows how bad the rank system is. Now I am not even mad I am just disappointed in the game's developers and how they aren't even trying to make the game better but I have felt like they want just to get fired all along.

    Rating: 0/10

    And Dear Ubisoft, please, FIX YOUR F*****G GAME.
    -edit- you don't even have to because most of your player base lost interest :) Make another game instead and please don't **** it up like all your other games

    Главная ошибка при покупке этой части R6 - думать, что вы покупаете тактический шутер.

    Игра вызывает двойственные чувства. Как тайтл R6 игра тянет на 2/10 - общего со всей серией радуги нет, развитие серии пришло к казуальщине. Что по ощущениям представляет из себя игра - call of duty.. или мод на неё

    Нужен ли был серии R6 мультиплеер вместо ко-оп? - Нет

    Было бы хорошо выпустить редкую за последние годы игру про полицию и их спецотряды? - Да (но не про тренирующиеся друг с другом)

    "Только мультиплеер" привёл игру к балансным вещам, которые по факту выглядят убого, вооружение и прочие девайсы даже сложно описать словом абсурд, особенно посмеялся с тачанки и прочих стволов из 43го. Скоро добавят арбалет, так что стоит ждать совместку (в рекламных целях это не редкость) с Chivalry и появления оперативника в латах с луком. Проломы стен, разрушение объектов - всё выглядит смешно, даже такая игра как контр-страйк на её фоне выглядит симулятором спецназа. А АХТУНГ: R6 был симулятором, тут ничего общего с этим, казуальщина для сельской местности

    Не известно то, что нас ждало в отменённой "Patriots", но уверенность в том, что эта игра попала "мимо" не покидает игрока. Как f2p игра и (без шуток) конкурент Warface или Point Blank неплохо, но это не ААА тайтл ни в какой вселенной, а побаловаться пару часиков можно

And, Ubisoft recently implemented a toxicity filter, where if you say anything toxic, you get banned. Before that, I rarely encountered people using toxic language. But now, way more people than before start calling people different spellings of the n word to get around the ban, where before almost no-one used anything of that sort. And, there are people tricking other people into saying banned words, and I got tricked, and I was banned for 30 minutes (not too bad) and lost a ranked match and put my team at a huge disadvantage since it kicked me out. I would give this game an 8 or a 9 but because of how toxic the community has gotten after they implemented a horrible toxicity filter, I'm giving this game a 1. No other game immediately bans you for using a bad word. They often block your ability to chat for a while, or will replace those words with something else. But Siege just goes and bans you, even if you didn't mean to say it and were tricked. Also, if you type to someone to bring frags (frag grenades) and forget to type the r, you're banned. No way to undo the ban. And, I think that ban prevents you from refunding the game on Steam, so if you're tricked into saying something and you get banned, and you don't like the game, you're stuck with it. Also, there are words I've never even knew were toxic such as "c**n" (replace * with o.) And, in ranked, there are huge amounts of cheaters because Ubisoft hasn't updated the anti-cheat in a while. Overall, I would wait to get this game until this is all resolved. Expand

    Probably my favorite online shooter that came out in 2015. Has a similar feel of Counter Strike mixed with some Battlefield. I would rate this much higher than an 8 if it wasn't for some bugs and server issues. (Seriously they should let us host our own servers).

    But the gameplay and map designs are solid. Kudos Ubi, you made a game I am willing to buy from you.

Also the game suffers from horrible net-code or maybe its just the lack of good dedicated servers either way you notice it all the time, information delay and the likes. Perspective is another issue with this game which I believe will never be fixed, getting shot by a head sticking out behind a counter or maybe a shoulder killing you from around the corner, which is kinda funny since this game promotes peaking and leaning around corners.

The game takes way too much time to load for everyone. I understand its a part of the game and I'm not saying to remove the ability to do it but spawn peaking is annoying to deal with and its super annoying to deal with defenders who jump off a second floor or they just exit the building and kill you with almost no risk since there's a 3 second countdown for the spawn peeker to only get spotted, the countdown can be reset if you go inside making it very easy to abuse the system. There are ways to deal with it, like droning certain areas, using long ranged operators like Glaz and Kali, but it just makes the game unfun having to constantly watching every peekable area so my team doesn't get killed. Sometimes the bullet don't register so headshots are kind of wonky, inconsistent sometimes and the game has several bugs but Ubisoft just wants to add more operator into a game with enough diversity for money, instead of actually fixing the terrible game.

The AI will shoot you through walls with 100% accuracy (then instantly troll you with a killcam). Guns have no recoil/uniqueness. You can only destroy objects/walls marked as destructable (not some Red Faction contender as lauded). Servers plainly don't work. No single player. 40% of the unique content requires microtransactions AT LAUNCH, feels like Game of War. R6 bucks my a $$.

    Multiplayer had the potential to be a fun $20 game on it's own, but it's lack of competition modes other than Attack/Defend make it absurdly over priced.

    It's a simple multiplayer game with no real single player mode.
    I played for about 10 hours and I feel already bored by the game.
    While I think Battlefield could be more tactical, R6 is just too limited for me.
    Despite the various operators (20) and maps (15) for now, the gameplay is quite repetitive.

    One of the best FPs on the market, the only skilled shooter left that is deeply enjoyable after DICE turned the Battlefield Franchise into a "pew pew", kids skill level, COD wannabie. R6 Siege is so Enjoyable and worth every penny.. Grab the Season pass if you like looking good on the battlefield !

    Counter-Strike if it was good. Seriously, this is the single best competitive shooter there is.

    Gameplay is tight/ varied and has a really strong sense of teamwork strategy. Every operator feels like a new experience and its physics create an additional layer there.
    It is the shooter of the gen IMO, good work Ubi
    a 9/10 at what it is

    Absolutely fantastic game. As I read in another review, it's a "thinking man's shooter" for sure. The maps are destructible, forcing creativity in both defensive and offensive roles; the unique abilities of each operator only serve to enhance the experience, serving up a metagame not unlike what you'd find in the MOBA genre - although with more meaty action.

The maps are destructible, forcing creativity in both defensive and offensive roles; the unique abilities of each operator only serve to enhance the experience, serving up a metagame not unlike what you'd find in the MOBA genre - although with more meaty action. Essentially, if the older Rainbow Six games, CS: GO and Dota were all merged into one, that would be Siege.

    There are customisable loadouts, attachments to add to your weapons, completely altering their statistics (recoil, flash hiders, angled grips giving you quicker ADS transitions etc.). If you like competitive multiplayer games, you're doing yourself a disservice by not trying it out. In my opinion, this is now the only competitive shooter worth playing. Period. The maps, too, are full of detail with so many avenues to explore and ways to breach your objective.

    I'd advise playing with friends, however, or at least using a mic as this game is heavily team-oriented and you will certainly suffer playing online without one.

    That said, it's not perfect. There are a few issues such as semi-auto shotguns having too much range, a couple silly operator buffs such as Pulse's heartbeat scanner - but all in all, this game is fantastic. Surprisingly, the devs have given it patch after patch - something you definitely don't expect from Ubisoft, considering their post-release support generally leaves much to be desired. So for this reason, I have no doubt everything will be sorted (Pulse and semi-autos get nerfed this month so the perfect game will then become godlike).

    Kudos to the community manager, 'Its_Epi' as well, for being as responsive and communicative as his position allows.

    An excellent and innovative breath of fresh air. The more I play, the more I like. I hope this is new role model for shooters to come. [Jan 2016]

    Siege’s multiplayer mode with its hectic pace and unpredictability seems to have a huge e-sport potential but with random teammates is often unplayable. [01/2016, p.52]

    Unfortunately, there aren’t that many maps available, but each one of them has lots of details and alternate routes, like basements and balconies. Even the airplane is much more complex than the archetypical “long tube with seats.” [Issue#205, p.48]
