Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege Revealed

You can fast rope down but not up, think they've left that out to ensure the timing of rounds is balanced. There is ambient lighting, not sure what you mean by police zones and drones??

The hostage does react to things you do, fire a shot near him/her and see. No need for voice acting, it's a multiplayer game that if played correctly players would use their mics. Graphics are fine, but tbh a game like this doesn't need fancy graphics its all about the gameplay. If you download the UHD Textures it does look a lot better at 1440p.

I've done 187 hours on it since release, I love it.

You can fast rope of a roof but not from a helicopter onto a roof like it was shown you could do with gameplay.

And yes they react but it's all a little ridged compared to what was shown to be the AI reaction to the world around them.

Graphics never need to be fancy really but we always want more and they are certainly lack luster in this game for the map size and detail that they could have shown. I was playing at 4k with the UHD textures and it was an OK improvement to the weapons/hand models but really there wasn't much in it with the textures.

In the reveal gameplay it showed stuff such at the house it had police cars outside with search lights, helicopters over that added to the both the ambient and gameplay by meaning you might capture shadows of people as they moved outside or inside and you wouldn't be able to hear as much as at the moment apart from direct player movement sounds are very limited.

It would have kept the dynamic interesting for the maps that this suits. This was completely cut out and it just feels half done throughout.

There were also flying drones with cameras shown that we would be able to use similar to the RC car drones and these were just dropped for no apparent reason, again adding this to the game seemed to add another dynamic that has been ignored.
 
Then you'd have an issue with the people who like to punch out the windows to get spawn kills, you're an open target if you choose a heli spawn.

But I agree it would have been cool to rope down from a heli as shown on early previews of the game.
 
I never said they was game breaking, I just feel that it isn't what it should be and tbh not even close to the original product shown. Yes loads of other games also went this way but this was the most obvious one that changed that I was personally interested in.

In regards to fast roping of the heli, the house doesn't have windows in the roof to worry about and the embassy building also has large skylights but plenty of roof space that was not visible.

These features don't have to be on all the maps but they are just things that are missing that shouldn't really be for what is meant to be a 'AAA' game.
 
Downloaded this on steam for the free weekend and then purchased at half price on uplay...anyway to use the same files does anyone know? Or am I going to have to reinstall with uplay?

They might be minor for yourself and probably for many others but they are parts of the game that I feel are not minor. They add different options and dynamics to the play.

Being able to use a drone to locate the hostage/targets that hovers over the roofs and can look through the 3rd floor window without being detected in the same way as the car drone would be an excellent perk if certain team members could use them.

The enemy could shoot at them or if the drone gets to close with the distance increased on the jammer it would make it fall from the sky.

In regards to the fast rope options it means more tactical options for the attacking team and more defensive solutions required for the defending team.

Yeah the other stuff is minor but doesn't mean they were not good additions to the game. I really like the core mechanic but just feel that it was only ever 70% finished and they ran out of time to implement everything.

Maybe if they do a Rainbow Six Siege 2 it will expand and be the game that this one should have been.
 
Loving the new map. Played with a couple of lads who knew the map inside out already and killed the defence team within 46 seconds!

Performance wise I've noticed some stuttering and slow down even on maps that were fine before, have they made any graphical changes?
 
Is anyone still playing this game? :)

I've been enjoying it lately and I'd like to jump on with some others so I can communicate.
People barely communicate on this game!
