Rainbow Six Vegas 2

Picked my copy up yesterday and think its great, more of the same which aint a bad thing for me. Not been online yet though.

In my copy i 2 codes to unlock 2 weapons, tar21 and m468.

I have unlocked the the tar21 with the code but carnt get the m468 to unlock with the code ??

Anyone got this problem ?
 
The multiplayer aspects that people are complaining about were in all the other favourite title shooters. They have just been conviently forgotten.

I can't remember any COD4 or Halo3 issues, pretty seamless really. Only problems that we have had were due to the Live service. Also I like games to matchmake for me on a rotating, party, basis.

I really want to like R6v2, don't get me wrong. Just that at the moment I am finding it difficult.

PS sorry for not knowing what engine GoW uses, I was just guessing about that. If GoW and R6V2 use the same engine and GoW is two years OLDER, then WTF has happened!
 
I bought this game for the PS3 and was going to go to Game this afternoon and swap it out for the 360 version. Judging by the posts here it seems pointless? I think the framerate is very poor and in general, overall, the are graphics weak.

So do I bother?
 
I am a massive RSV fanboy, but reading some of this thread i am happy i couldn't afford it this month and got it as a rental. Should still be here today anyway.
 
Do terrorists just randomly spawn on terrorist hunt? I was just in an empty room covering the door and some guy shotgunned me in the back of the head.

The AI just seems to run straight for you too, making it pretty difficult to be honest. I havent completed one terrorist hunt yet
 
They spawn at different areas as you make your way around the map. I've had some spawn right in front of me! I'll give you a hand on t.hunt if you want
 
Splinter Cell, Rainbow 6, Assassins Creed. Very rare for one department to output an almost consistent stream of AAA releases, the other one breaking up AAA is Naruto, which is actually a pretty excellent game.

Naruto is awesome, wish it was on PS3 tbh, though heard someone is working on one.

Yeah that would be cool, I seem to be clearing an area assuming behind me is clear, when in fact they will just spawn there and shoot me. It seems they spawn mid game:confused:

Early on there was loads of dropping games etc with COD, Gears of war had issues at launch as well.

The trouble is if you played ranked then the whole idea is not to let a party stay together for boosting. I'm pretty sure gears of war dropped you out after a ranked game as well.

The trouble with COD match matching is in normal play you can play 6v6 say Overclockers. Unless you play private and as soon as we tried that everyone left because they were not levelling up.

I like the way you can still fill a room full of overclockers and still play the game as normal. It doesn't have to be ranked.

I don't understand why it seems to be one game or the other. There's sod all on the horizon shooter wise til what Gears 2? No reason why you can't play and enjoy both games.

As I said people keep making out Cod 4 was ground breaking, it brought nothing new to the genre. The perk system was ripped straight out of the star wars game.

I regret selling COD though, should have kept it. I will by it again but I cant find it for less that £35. I will go to £30 max new and take the hit :D

For me COD didnt need new maps it need more customisation. Snipers off, Grenades off. Two or three of the maps would be like playing a new map if you could do that.

Wait for the Game of the Year edition which will come with a code to get the new maps for free.
 
Xbox Live or PSN?
If it's the former then I'm REALLY getting sick of it.

PS3 version, it really put a downer on the game, as when it works, it's fun - albeit with choppy frame rates :(

There's a list of ports in the manual, which once added, helped to ease the issues slightly, but there were still numerous problems resulting in both myself and a friend having to completely power off the PS3s to reconnect.

I'm used to PC games being released unfinished, but more and more console games are like this now, and without the ability to tweak it yourself (like a PC game), you're left waiting for official patches.

A poor show in my opinion.

Scort.
 
COD4 really destroys it IMO, GoW has a better cover system and co-op play

Agreed, but having played through co-op GoW again this week, they have really ****** it up - for some reason, almost all walls now have and extra half foot of invisible wall around them, making it impossible to shoot at targets, without having to move.

Guess some developers move the good team onto new projects and leave monkeys to patch games :confused:

Scort.
 
This thread is really putting me off, Is it really that bad? compared to Vegas1 how bad is it?

Was on terrorist hunts all night alst night with a mate and had very little in the way of problems. Personally I think its a lot better than the original vegas, but I didnt buy it for SP so cant comment there. The gun unlocks do not take that long really, ive got it about 50% unlocked already.

The PS3 version still suffers from FPS issues, but not nearly on as bad a scale as vegas did. One thing that really narks me is that plants are literally solid structures, meaning you cannot throw a flashbang through the leaves of a tree.

The AI seems to have improve immensly, they are nto as dim witted as they used to be. If you are in a room with 2 entrences ro more, then the enemy will coordinate, and attack you through both doors at the same time, which keeps you on your feet.

Im not going to say its better or sorse than COD4, as COD4 cannot do COOP online with mates, and COD4 and Vegas 2 adver experiences are totally different, ones a lot more tactical, and ones run in and prey you get a kill.

I wouldn't say it was bad, just untested - I cannot believe that the MP issues would not have come up during testing, as it's such a widespread problem.

Compared to Vegas, I think that they are pretty much identical at core level, but it seems like they have tried to increase the graphics/effects quality, which has added an additional layer of slow down*.

It's certainly worth the money, so long as you enjoyed the first, but I felt the story in this didn't seem to be entirely clear/flowing as the first; but that could just be me :confused:

This is the PS3 version I am talking about.

Scort.

* The frame rate issues seem really sporadic, for example, hiding in the train cart in kill house, then looking down the left hand side of the building gives me issues, but it goes after a few minutes.
 
the reason i didnt like the rainbow six games was because you had to shoot the bad guys laods of time befor they died,is this one still like that?

Just about the same amount of bullets as any other shooter i've played and normally one to the head.

Im multiplayer a lot depends on the armour people are using.

They are wearing body armor, so yes, you will have to shoot several times, but can still get single shot kills (headshots etc).

Scort.
