Raven Shield question

[bussinrounds]

Idk, in my eyes, Raven Shield kicks the crap out of any of those R6 Vegas games. That whole going into 3rd person view, when in cover mode, totally kills it for me.

Your hiding behind a wall or whatever, but still able to see everything out there ? Gimmie a break ! If they wanted a cover mode, they should of just done it like Red Orchestra 2 is doing it. No 3rd person nonsense.

Well for anyone who as ever read the R6 book or understand how counter-terror units are supposed to operate, Vegas (and its unjustified sequel) throws everything that was R6 out the window. I don't care whether the gameplay is good or not, it does not deserve the title of R6; no more than DR deserves the title of OFP.

Until the plannining phase is brought back and the abnoxious cover-system removed, none of them will ever pass as a proper R6 game in my eyes.

The R6 book was awesome. Really one of Clancys very best books

Vegas (1 and 2) and Letdown were truly awful. Run and gun stupidity with yet another unrealistic and implausible story.

I have no doubt that the upcoming R6 will do nothing to 'return to it's roots' apart from mentioning that it will be 'returning to it's roots' right up until release day.

Ubisoft are not interested in any depth, like every other major publisher it's all about false advertising, box sales and endless DLC.

I've been playing R6's since original release on PS1.

Vegas certainly isn't "tactical"

But it was still fun as a game. I also loved the customization (which ground branch is also doing)

But I used to love setting up my team members and creating plans. I used to pride myself on not having any team members die throughout a campaign.

Good man, I too am averse to losing anyone.

@Tonci - have you read the Tom Clancy "sequel" to Rainbow Six? Was released in 07, not a bad read either.

Dead or Alive is its name. I use the term sequel loosely because it focuses on Jack Ryan as well as Clark.

[Tonci87]

Yeah I have read Dead or alive, but I think it is a sequel to claws of the Tiger (I think it is called like that in english)

More maps with varied enviro,planning and good AI for terrorists and team,but noooooooo they had to give us that junk Vegas(Letdown was even worse).

How the fuck a zillion terrorists could escape notice and infiltrate Vegas,hmm maybe they were disguised as tourists playing blackjack and slot machines.Not only that but apparently they still had a million or two of terrorists for Vegas 2.
