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

    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.

    GD brilliant multiplayer shooter. This is gaming at it's finest.

    If it wasn't for Siege I'd be preaching in the streets, "Don't buy Ubisoft! They're ruining games with mass-assembled nonsense!"

    But Siege is just perfect. This is what competitive gaming is all about.

    Nowadays the game is really healthy right now, bad hit reg is rare, hackers are rare, balancing is a little bit wack for blitz and maverick, but overall it's very very satisfying to succeed, and fun to play with teamwork from friends.

Rainbow Six: Siege is a 5vs5 tactical multiplayer shooter with an emphasis on co-operation and team roles. 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.

    4 years later, Rainbow 6: Siege turned into one of, if not, the best shooters in the market. While the learning curve is very steep, the satisfaction of being over a Gold 1 is exceptional. Would recommend for people that take games too seriously and/or competitive players.

    Ubisoft made amazing game. At the beginning was game a bit broken (lags, texture and weapon bugs), but in few years they fixed almost all bugs, optimalized the game, added a lot of new operators and maps. I play this game almost 4 years and I still enjoy 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

    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.

    This is an amazing game with elements where CSS was not able to achieve. Current CSGO is very poor vs dynamics and tactics from R6: Siege. I highly recommend R6: Siege. Every new DLC with operators brings new tactics and new style of the game in general

    It's really similar to CS:GO so if you like it, you might like R6 Siege.

    Indeed, ideally, you need 5 players, no more, not less while in Battlefield, it's less important and you can have many squads of 5 players ...

    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.

    Edit : after reaching level 15 and getting more used to the game and watching serenity17 videos on youtube, and playing with my team on discord, I can understand a little more what people like about this game and I've started to like it

    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.

    Absolutely fantastic game. As I read in another review, it's a "thinking man's shooter" for sure.

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.

    - Players who do not communicate or cooperate with their team are often a liability

    To all the players comparing this game with Vegas: This is NOT Vegas. Just because it doesn't have the same features of one game doesn't make it a terrible game. Siege wasn't designed with 3rd person in mind. 3rd person would grant campers a huge advantage. In Siege, one must rely on their senses to determine enemy position, i.e. footsteps in the next room, someone walking through barbed wire, etc. These minute features are what make this game such a fantastic tactical squad-based shooter. You have to strategize with your team, accurately execute plans to complete the objective or fail together.

    This isn't for the COD player looking for quick-kill gratification. You won't find anyone sprinting across the map with guns blazing. That'll only get you killed. In fact, sprinting creates so much noise you'll quickly find yourself watching your corpse get teabagged via killcam.

    My one and only gripe with the game as of release are the bugs. Hopefully Ubisoft can fix these soon.

    To get the most fun out of it, press start on main menu and turn certain modes on and off. I like playing mostly classic terrorist hunt and bomb defuse TH. On TDM, I play mainly hostage rescue. For operator I go with Sledge. He has powerful weapons and is good for beginners. I'm glad SP is basically challenge tower training missions. Story campaign is too overblown in other Rainbows.To get the most fun out of it, press start on main menu and turn certain modes on and off.

    This is very much like any other traditional Rainbow 6. The explosive environments add so much challenge and tacticle planning. The only thing that keeps this game from getting a 10/10 is that they didn't include local co-op and a tps cover system this time. If you like games like Socom, Unit13, Ghost Recon, Swat, Counter Strike, or anything related to armed forces/ espionage, this is a dream come true.

Of course, there are things I question should be in the game, such as the online market for pay2get stuff (like $29 season pass that unlocks characters, Currency Booster, and EXP booster), but I don't foresee these items giving mid-level players much of an advantage.

    I should note that the tutorial is horrid. And the Scenario mode's gameplay is too punishing to casually learn the game as a tutorial. For instance, I didn't really understand how to remotely ignite explosive charges or understand the uses of drone/ extra drone for a few rounds into the game. So, I hope Ubisoft enhances the tutorial, because it'll deter a lot of new players.

    Oh and another thing: There're way too many non-English speaking players on the game. Can we somehow limit the matchmaking by regions?

    Lastly, I think game will have a hard-time retaining casual-players. There is not gameplay that really stands out to me, and doesn't give players the flexibility to be creative. I would've like to see a feature where users could create their own maps, and a server list for custom games/scenarios where I could play a round with 10 v 10 or 15 v 15 or with Multiple objectives.

    Overall I think the game is well made and really fun. I'm looking forward to any improvements Ubisoft will make to it.

    To the Rainbow Six veterans. I am a fan of the series since Raven Shield. Of course, the series has evolved, an Siege has not that much in common with Raven Shield anymore. But It is a very good game on it's own and maybe should not be compared to it's predecessors (i know it's called "rainbow six", but obviously for marketing reasons). But if you liked R6 for tactical gameplay and it's great atmosphere you will like Siege, too, that's for sure.

    Wonderful game, not quite as good as teh first few Rainbow games, but MUCH better than the last few crappy ones (Lockdown and Vegas1/2). Oh yeah and the audio and soundtrack are very well done!

    I was not expecting much with this game as I was dissapointed by the last 3 rainbow games, but this game is a ton of fun and a wonderful surprise. It rewards teamwork and communication, grab a few friends and get ready for some great fun! Best Ubisoft game in years and best rainbow six game in ages.

    It's very intense and strategic, you have thousands ways to attack or defend which make this game very fun to play. Comunication is everything and all operators are very balanced with their specials skills.

    Rainbow Six: Siege is a surprisingly entertaining game which brings the classic Tom Clancy series into the modern era in a genre which has been quiet in recent years. This game is by no means perfect with some flaws as expected but Ubisoft have produced a title that fans of the classic genre will certainly enjoy.

    Siege is largely a multiplayer team-based game which centers on casual or competitive 5v5 matches on a variety of maps with hostage defence and bomb defusal being the primary objectives. Matches are best of 5 alternating rounds in which you and four others team up in attack and defence. There are only 10 or so maps available but each vary in size and style and as the objective point changes location in each round; everything feels fresh and both sides must work hard on offense and defence. You can also team up with 4 friends against the AI and play out MP scenarios although the dreadfully coded AI leaves a lot to be desired.

    The structure of the game surrounds earning XP called Reown points - these can be spent on unlocking operators who each have their own special equipment and loadouts to be used in the field. There are around 16 operators to unlock in the basegame and all differ and can only be selected by one player in each team in the lobby. Reown can also be used to unlock attachments, camo's and other additional customisation elements. Some attack operators can blast through walls, hammer down barricades, bypass traps whereas the defensive operators can use their equipment to counter the opposition with strategically placed traps and positioning. Everything feels well-balanced and the level of customisation is fantastic.

    The disappointing aspects of Siege is that there isn't really a worthwhile single player option - you can solo some scenarios as a lone wolf but these aren't very satisfying and can be extremely difficult even on normal difficulty. Other issues surround the poor netcode and typical Ubisoft server reliability. The visuals feel somewhat dated and the mechanics are a bit clunky but despite this; there is plenty of fun to be had without the woes getting in the way. The general controls may lack fluency but at least you feel like you're in control of a tactical operator and not some arcadey Call of Duty character.

    Overall; Rainbow Six: Siege rejuvenates the vintage genre and is a worthy successor to the classic games in the series. It demands tactics and teamwork and each match is never the same. The game does have a few issues and perhaps isn't as polished as we would have hoped but nevertheless, it's a good purchase especially if you have dedicated friends to play with. If you are looking for a single player experience, this game is not for you but even if you are a solo player just wanting to jump in casually; it's a easy game to get into and tremendous fun throughout.

I have also no "Rainbow Six fandom" to speak of, nor do I even remotely enjoy Counter Strike. Now, with all that out of the way let me get to the review.

    I started playing in the Open Beta. I was hooked. I normally don't buy games, this one I actually ended up buying. The game offers so many moments you can remember the next day, clutch saves, lucky snipes and the lot. You feel like you're actually doing something, instead of mindlessly shooting everything that moves.

    The game feels very balanced, and the developers are actually listening to the community. They have laid out a roadmap of what's to come in 2016, new operators, new maps and it's going to be completely free. Coming from a LoL player that is still playing because of how competitive the game is, I feel like this is going to be in similar fashion.

    Some people I see are whining about how you have to unlock Operators and all that, which is absolute **** There are 20 operators in the game. After doing the tutorials and situations, which are singleplayer content, I ended up with 7800 Renown. Which allows me to unlock 2 Operators from each of the 5 CTU'S for a total of 10. So with about 2.5 hours of playtime, I unlocked half of the Operators. I think that is beyond fair, in fact I'm quite shocked. I feel like I am at no disadvantage whatsoever.

    The game feels great. You can get it for 30$ and in my honest opinion, that's a good deal. I can't wait to get back into it.

    There, those are the cons as I see them, on to the positives:
    The game is real good ol' fun! Tactical FPS at its best. If you liked the classic Rainbow 6, Rogue Spear series you will feel right at home. The feel when moving around in the game is actually quite similar to the classic RB6 titles. Also, the new mechanics with breakable walls etc, have been implemented really well. They add to the experience instead of becoming gimmicky and unnecessary. There is really not much more to say, try it out and I'm sure you'll have fun.

The last couple of years have been over crowded with COD clones and every developer seems to be copying COD. For what its worth Modern Warfare 1 was the best in my honest opinion. Anyway back to Rainbow Six. I played the original games on PC years ago and this was a pleasant surprise. Though it doesn't have single player elements to it, its all multiplayer. In my books thats not good. You need to be able to play a story mode. there has to be more to each level than just attacking and protecting, even if there was just a cut scene that you can watch.
    At first the games design is all based around attacking and defending, then unlocks, each particular attacker and defender have certain abilities. All the content that people complain about not being there is in fact there in the form of cutscenes for each character that you unlock. And well the 11 maps and then thats it. But the gameplay is very good. So good you will come back to it again and again. They say future updates will release more maps and characters to unlock, which in turn will just increase the longevity. Thats is true . Bit I can't help feeling disappointed towards the lack of single player missions. Even the single player situations for some reason don't run at the same frames per second in multiplayer than it does in the single player missions. Leaving controls and movement feeling laggy. Plus the AI is atrocious. Its just shoot the moving target and so on. No fun there. Anyway all in all, this game is fun for the basic element that it focuses on. The graphics are good when you are playing multiplayer and most importantly if you have a team that communicates its worth the purchase. Because each round will last a lot long if you work together rather than going lone soldier. 8/10

    I don't find the content limited - there are 20 maps I think and 3 modes (hostage, bomb, kill all) when playing Terrorist Hunt. There are many Operators to choose from and there is no grinding. You can get more than 6000 points just by completing the single player training Scenarios. This can unlock and fully equip 3-4 operators.

    There is no pay to win element at all. Micro transaction are limited to skins and boosters.

    This is a straightforward focused team based FPS that stands on it's own. I'm glad I bought it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Buy it on website that sell the cdkey like G2a or cdkey, you can get it for half the price. Then the game is really worth it.
    I don’t play first person shooter games for long. I have played a lot of them, but I tend to play 2 dozen games and never return. The only one that tend to keep me playing is battlefield. In a way, Rainbow Six: Siege is like that. A lot of the structures are destructible, 11 maps, and 3 game modes. There are plenty of customization of weapons. Granted, I felt like the customization wasn’t really customization, but rather huge upgrade. Obviously scope is better than iron sight; was that a good example? Here is another, if you upgrade the grip of the weapon, there is less recoil, no downside. Obviously, that’s just up grade. There should be some sort of downside to certain upgrades, but the game clearly fails at that.
    Why do I like this game? It’s pretty tactical. Through vote, you decide a tactical location where to spawn, whether you are playing the attacker or the defender. You have 10 different specializations to choose for both attack and defense. Each specialization brings some sort of tactical idea in mind. But there is clear imbalance, why choose a medic when everyone dies within 2 shots.
    Where does the game start to fail? There is no story mode. Team killing might not be for everyone. Uplay really sucks. There is no in game chat between friends, you have to minimize the game to get talk with your friends. I have an expensive and well received headset but apparently the game can’t seem to locate it despite it working with every game I ever had. Matchmaking isn’t the best; I’ve had some games where it feels like it’s a complete landslides. Now, does this mean the game sucks? No, I still find it very enjoyable playing with or without my friends, but there is clearly some faults that can and should be fixed.
    Again ill repeat, find a website that sells the keys like g2a and get the game for half the price. It’s definitely worth it for $30-40. Otherwise, console players, I suggest you get it at discount.

    Variety of choice, decision making and communication. These are the elements that make this game great. EG.
    You can hear someone running in the room above, running carelessly down the corridor. You might place a breaching charge on the ceiling and explode your way into the room, or you could start shooting through the ceiling hoping you hit somthing, or you could drop a little drone and race up there to view through the onboard camera, marking anyone found for your team.

    The environments are nearly completly destructable and can be used to shoot through, smash through, detonate or re-enforce as you see fit. Every game plays out differently due to player choice of character and decisions made on the fly and in response to team mates or opposition..

    Even playing with complete beginners can be fun due to thier hilarious and often clueless decision making, accidentally slipping off roofs, having to run away from their own badly thrown grenades and just plain panicking. My own personal worst was planting a C4 charge, then panicking in response to an enemy entering the room immediately detonating it, without moving away. Wrong trigger! Dead team mates can cycle through point of view for the live players making it even more embarassing if you're the last man on your team standing at the time.

    Slowly as you come to understand the multitude of guns, armour, and gadgets available, you can begin to plan for each encounter more effectively. It's a game that really lends itself to team chat. Nice to see a game that brings people together in a game requiring thought, planning, teamwork and communication in order to succeed.

    Rainbow Six Siege is an FPS. There is very little to say about it in mechanics, it puts you in a first person perspective in multiple environments with a varying assortment of weapons. While the nostalgia of other Rainbow Six games sits in this one's back pocket with giant neon signs saying "Please refrain", This one does manage to stand out.

    BASICS:
    While Siege has no single player campaign, much like the much worse Battlefront, it does make up for it in certain departments, while many Fans of the series will complain about this, please understand: This is not The Rainbow Six Vegas series. While those games were known for their tactical shooting and intense campaigns, they lacked a competent multiplayer and satisfying online experience. Siege does make up for that, in its very action packed game modes in which normally you are split up into 2 teams, the good and bad guys, the bad guys are in a house with 2 bombs, the goal to protect the bombs until the time limit runs out or they kill all the good guys. The good guys have to kill the bad guys or disable the bomb. In many ways it is like a team death match but with alternate objectives. This adds a flare to the game that can't quite be matched by any other. The AI is relatively decent, sometimes it acts a bit on the idiotic side, but through my experience, it worked decently well. So if you like tactical shooters, this is for you, it pushes teamwork above all else, beating solo terrorist hunt is very difficult , so using teamwork is key. The game does have a decent amount of customization, weapons, and attachments. So in conclusion, if you like first person shooters, then this is for you, if you are a die hard Rainbow Six Vegas fan, than you will be disappointment. However, I felt the game was a nice balance of tactics and action.

Each class has a unique ability and a set pool of weapons each ability is used greatly to benefit the team whether its setting up bulletproof stronger shields and electronic heart monitors to breaching hammers and jammers. The terrorist hunt is back, the classic rainbow six mode is here you have to take a defuser and disarm 2 bombs with lots of respawning terrorists.

    This game is the realistic tactical shooter i've been waiting for. No map, all based on listening (awesome). A bullet in the head means you're dead no matter what gun ("boom headshot"). Game borrows a lot from what is great about Counter Strike (amazing compliment for a new shooter). Just run and gone, you're dead. Every step needs to be thought out and planned with your team. I am not a fan of games that don't come with story modes, but the multiplayer is just that damn good you don't need it. The way it is set up for awesome infiltration and defensive maneuvers that create these awesome action pact one of kind experiences with your friends. You really find yourself saying "damn that was so sweet" *hits share button on ps4*. Every class has a meaningful perk. Every perk has a counter perk. So many maps that have usually 3 different points of where the action happens so depending on where the bomb or the hostage is each map has 3 different experiences alone. Then on top of that, depending on how people play the game changes again. It's crazy how different it is every time. In other games a map loads and you know exactly what you are going to do. Run left look down that hallway, shoot because people usually run there. Then go to the next spot where the spawn point is..... none of that here. Each time a map loads you have no idea what you'll do until you collect intel and talk with your team to figure out the best way to attack based on the Rainbow Six members you'd decided to spawn as. I just can't say enough about this game. The only multiplayer i've enjoyed over the years is The Last of Us and many games that have come out have just let me down. Metal Gear. Battlefront. Destiny. But Rainbow Six has finally brought a Counter Strike type of game to console.

    Responses to 0 ratings:

    "no single player" - not worth giving the game a 0. multiplayer creates awesome scenarios that are difficult and more realistic that no AI could give you in a story. i always support games giving you a story for the sweet movie scenes and the opportunities for cool events of gameplay. but for the first time ever, i am ok with no story.

    "game plays like a mix of call of duty and battlefield": not true. call of duty is fast paced and people are jet packing everywhere and you get shot from behind every two seconds. Battlefield takes you 30 minutes to get into a spot to shoot your gun or find out where the hell the battle is going on. Rainbow Six is on a different level.

    "The AI is stupid"- that's true, the random side modes you do, the AI is pretty dumb as nails. Depending on the difficulty. I don't know what difficulty that person was playing on.

    "game is a bore fest generic shooter"- just plain wrong. no further comments

    "absolutely no incentive to work as a team" - this person needs 4 friends. i played all the old rainbow six games and this one demands way more teamwork in multiplayer than the last ones

    "the levels are boring." - ARE YOU FN' KIDDING ME

    "destructibility is nothing new" - 0 rating for nothing new. *claps s l o w l y*

    "rifle and pistol sounds very unrealistic" - i don't own the guns in the game so i can't comment on this

    "bad hit detection" - haven't had a problem with this. kill cams show weird things sometimes

    "stupid balanced shotgun" - one of the shotguns is mad strong but it seems like they reduced the range since the beta. i used a pump action at short range and had to hit them twice, other times at mid range it is once. really depends where the bullets end up.

    "can't create classes between operators" - i like how the guns are broken out between the classes. it gives it a thought out balance based on that operators perk. but i can see why someone would get frustrated with this.

    "no 3rd person duck and cover" - so happy they got rid of that. it is not realistic which is what this game is going for. if i put my back to a hallway wall i wouldn't be able to see down the whole damn hallway without the other person seeing me. if this game had that no one would be able to infiltrate anywhere. Yes, it was fun in the old games, no, would not work here at all and thank goodness it is not in this game.

    Hope this was helpful for those who are on the fence.

    After beta i'm afraid about the game but right now is the best game from FPS on the market with come out this season.
    Very tactical and team play game.
    Somebody who still considering what to do just take and have fun with that game.But you need a nice team for play.
    They fix the problem with the matchmaking and now is perfect.

    Rainbow Six Siege for the PC is the best First Person Shooter, I've ever played, period!

    This is a 5 vs 5 game which involves 2 sides Attackers v Defenders.

    Rock, Paper, Guns, Bombs and Special Abilities

    Operator's have a various weapons + a Special Ability.

    Gameplay last 4 minutes. The Attackers storm the building or plane by whatever means they can. Maybe abseiling in through windows or roof tops and breaking in doors or blowing holes in walls.

    Defenders it is a tense time waiting. Sometimes you all might just be in one fortified room undiscovered by the remote drones of the Counter-Terrorist Law Enforcement but with the knowledge it is inevitable that you will be found.

    The tension and suspense are heightened knowing that this is a no respawn game, it's do or die.

    The game is played with the first team to win 3 rounds are the victors. If you start on Attack the first round the next round you will be defence and so on. But if the game reaches 2-2 then a Overtime round is played but this time a coin is flipped to see which team defends and which team attack. By this time both teams get to know each other a bit, tactics, if there is teamwork going on, what kind of Operators the enemy is likely to use plus how good players may be.

    It's a game of cat and mouse, tactical, skilful and cunning, with a touch of tiny bit luck thrown in. 4 mins can seem like a long time in this game. Then action might erupt and it could be all over in a minute or it could be a series of engagements. It could be a big engagement at the beginning followed by a lull in the middle of the game and a stealthy tense ending. The game could be sniping at each other in CQB (Close Quarter Combat) for the entire game. I also noted players bating each other into traps and ambushes. Players using little tricks they have learned to get an advantage or the drop on the enemy, first shot can be crucial and can be the advantage to getting the kill. If someone sees you and you don't see them, your dead 90% of the time.

    Gunfights

    This game has the best gunfights in any shooting game I've played period! This is the first real game where cover feels like a real life situation. You could be hanging upside down like spiderman abseiling down a building shooting in a window from the top when people expect you to shoot from the bottom. Drop down shoot or throw grenade or flash bang or break a barricade or plant a charge or a special weapon.

    Bullets whizzing past ping off surfaces, you may even get hit by a bullet or two, if you get hit in the head it's game over for you. The gun play seems so real, once you get someone in your sight they can easy be dead. But the game has body armour, it varies from Operator to Operator or if you get given extra body armour by a team mate. Body armour can enable you to take a bullet or two maybe 3 or 4 even I'd say about 5 at max and you're dead. The game feels so life like that I could take three people out rushing me with a single clip of an automatic weapon. The gunfights are so intense it's like the wild west in game. I can't even begin to put it into words just how exhilarating this game can be. The gameplay is perfect, 10 out of 10 for that. Well balanced, great mechanics built around a fantastic concept. It don't get better than this. I think the programming team have reached their pinnacle.

    Certain games come round not very often maybe once a decade that set the bar and are groundbreaking. This game is not so much groundbreaking, it is a number of the best ideas from games it the past put together in a perfect package that sets the bar in gameplay.

    Gameplay, gameplay, gameplay, tactics and fun, that's what this game is about.

    The environments are mainly destructible and feel very real, for a game it's really quite amazing.

    The game has built in voice comms and people do communicate with each other more than any other game I've played, when you play with random's. I should imagine playing with friends takes this game up another level and this will be a brilliant e-sports game.

    Atmosphere & Maps

    The game's map are great and varied. You get 11 map from Airplane's to Hell's Angels motorcycle clubs like something out of “The Sons of Anarchy”. When in the Hells Angels club you have rock music blaring out the duke box. Most of the time though there is a eerie silence that is only broken by footsteps, voices or gunfire or explosions. It's all very tense and believable. The 11 maps have different places to place booms and hostages and can change from game to game, room to room, making the game have variety and the maps have more than one play style. With no two games feeling the same.

    From the controls to gun play to game design to atmosphere, this game hits all the right notes.

    Score

    Atmosphere: 9

    Sound 8.5

    Graphics 8.5

    Gameplay 10

    Overall 9.8 out 10

    This is a Classic game that will last for many years to come and I'd say the best first person shooter I've ever play.

    There are a lot of fanboys out there with hurt butts, and I don't understand it. Sure the game doesn't have a single player campaign, and I get it, not every one plays multiplayer, and there are some people who love story striven games. It's reasonable to be upset since Tom Clancy is a writer; and you know he's all about building a story with believable characters, and blah, blah blah.There are a lot of fanboys out there with hurt butts, and I don't understand it.

It's reasonable to be upset since Tom Clancy is a writer; and you know he's all about building a story with believable characters, and blah, blah blah.

    But at it's core Rainbow Six is still very much alive in this title. There aren't many games on the console market that focuses so deeply on team tactics. All that planing before a mission, giving your red team, and blue team their planed routes and go codes, that's all there. The same amount of finesse and planing goes in to how you assault your objective just like any other rainbow six game. Of course, this applies if you have a good team, but I've ran in to more players willing to listen and work as team with strangers more-so in rainbow six siege, than any other game on the market. So if you don't have a group of guys to play with, it's not very hard to meet like minded players who whined up on your friend list after a few games. I've added at least 20 and started a community of PS4 called, You Gotta Be Tacticool.

    I do have to admit though. The controls can be a bit funky at first, but I suggest adjusting your stick dead zones (if you're playing on consoles), turn up your sensitivity, and turn off aim assist if you're playing terrorist hunt, and you should be golden. My setting for my dead zones are turned all the way down to five, and my sensitivities are set to five and that's my sweet spot.

    Now if you do want to play single player, there is the classic terrorist hunt, and the new situations. Situations are basically a weak ass set of "campaign" missions that teach you how to play the game. But honestly, Multiplayer is where this game really shines.

    I love the team work, and the how easily the dynamics of a map can change. The destructible surfaces really make this game interesting, and if your team is really on par. You can spank just about any defending team. Just last night I played a rank match that went 9 rounds because each of our teams were so spot on with attacking. It was one of the best games I've played so far, and the most exciting. Of course we won since we were the last to attack and took the match point.

    I'm giving this game a 9 out of 10 only because they're are a lack of maps and instead of adding to level designs, they are creating additional operators. I don't have any complaints about game modes because they suit the theme of the game incredibly well.

    So, if this game had more content, it would have defiantly received a 10/10.

    The game is totally worth purchasing provided that ubisoft do support this game for a long amount of period rather than just leaving it and pushing Seige 2 in our throats. By long term i mean like the devs are supporting dota, CS, BF4, GTA Online.
    Keep adding content and keep it fresh add new maps and new modes. To get rid of whining related to single player campaign add it too as a addon please. KEEP IT ALIVE!

However if you're the kind of person who buys battlefield and then never plays the singleplayer then this is for you. The game is highly tactical and hardcore-focused. You can't just go in and play a short 10 minutes and then be done with it. This game takes time and an understanding of the maps, tactics and the other operators in your team.

    If you play with a group of people who DO understand some basic tactics, have knowledge of the map and know the other operators in the team and are willing to work with them then the game is absolutely amazing and just kills every other MP game out now. Apparently there won't be "dlc" content but rather "early access" to the new stuff when buying a season pass which is perfect. I never buy that stuff and this way the community doesn't get split into 2 or 3 fractions.

    If you like tactic shooters and teamwork - then this game is for you.

    Regarding the coop and training missions: They don't make much fun an the AI is pretty stupid, but for learning the game it is ok (As I mentioned earlier, I only care about multiplayer anyways).

    About Multiplayer:
    It makes a hell of a lot of fun, but not everyone is going to like it, since it is a little bit different from COD or Battlefield, although after playing lots of Battlefield 3 before I quickly felt comfortable in Rainbow 6 Siege.

    The main issue at the moment are hitdetection and sometimes the netcode, but you don't notice it too often. Sometimes you wonder why the other one killed you so fast, but usually you just were in a stupid spot. The sound is sometimes also not perfectly matching with the game (someone is shooting and you can't hear the shots/ explosion sounds come from the wrong direction), which is quite annoying. But even though there are this problems, I already had over a dozend of playful hours in this game.

    If Ubisoft fixes this issues and works on a few more improvements, this game will be really awesome, but it is already a really good game. Another thing to mention is: There are not a lot of alternatives in this genre besides maybe Counter Strike, so we should be happy Ubisoft made such a game.

    For me, the game does all the right things. It might not be the return of Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear, and it might have more than a few bugs to iron out before it's competition ready, but it's exactly what I expected -- competitive SWAT 4 -- and Ubisoft keep saying the right things about their post-release plans. Only time will tell though.
