Strange must have been just the sheer load on server.

awesome demo......will deffo purchase this one.
i did notice some slow down but it wasnt horrendous enough to deter from the actual gameplay, and it is a demo after all. the controls just seemed more intuitive compared to graw aswell.
great stuff

oo im on this! after 4 pages of only good praise i need to try it!

Wyrdo · 24 Oct 2006 at 17:35

I had a quick go last night, I don;t think I've played any of the Rainbow Six games before.

Impressed with the demo but I need to take it slower rather than try and just blast my way through

It's not for me, which is a suprise as I love Graw. No 3rd person, I play graw in 3rd person even in SP. Didnt like the switch from first to third everytime you duck behind a box etc.

Also as Ive never played one of these before I dont like the loss of vision everytime a gun fight goes off. 90% of the time I couldn't see who or what I was shooting at and my team did all the work.

Looks fantastic just not my cup of tea. Will be a big hit though I'm sure.

I found that very off putting too.

Took a while to get back into this... having been so used to GRAW now, despite with the original xbox all I played was RS3 and RS3:Black Arrow.

Hmmm... not sure, not sure at all ... think I will stick to GRAW!

dannyjo22 · 24 Oct 2006 at 17:54

I suppose in multi player it couldn't do that? I mean you would have no chance in graw if you got tagged by a stray one on the run and then the vision went like that.

It might be a good game still in multi player if that didnt happen, as graw multi is very different to SP. I'm always a big fan of thrid person, always play them that way. For me to buy a game it has to be in there as an option.

Wrathamon · 24 Oct 2006 at 18:07

I hate 3rd person view, one of the first things i did with GRAW was change it to 1st!

I honestly didn't notice any.

Me either or tearing. Noticed it sort of pause in places but not the usual FR up and down.

Herminator · 24 Oct 2006 at 18:34

There were a couple of slow downs for me, but it seems to be triggered by the physics objects. Such as when you're clearing a small room and people start running into small objects on the floor. So they either need to tweak the game engine or take out a few of the bits and pieces littering the rooms.

Ripper · 24 Oct 2006 at 18:55

good demo. Dont usually like this sort of game as they're usually too fiddly and complicated, but I found it easy to get to grips with. Kept dying thoough when I got to the hostage bit, didn't know what to do so i gave up :mad:

FeFiDoh · 24 Oct 2006 at 19:20

does it just end after they all rush in when you save the hostage??

That demo was awesome took a while to get hang of it but its well good fun, a good sense of team work involved in it and it looks dead pretty

Could be one of the better games ive played in a long time as far as FPS goes. GRAW was good but this seems to have an edge with its team work they dont seem so stupid and you have more options in this with the FB's and smokes etc..

Any idea when play-asia will have stock back in for a pre-order? what are they like? never ordered from them, but it seems cheap - whats the delivery charges? do you get stung @ customs?
