    It's basically a glorified version of Counter-Strike with destructible walls and a couple of more gadgets. Which is not a bad thing. Counter-Strike is very popular. However, it is lacking in some key areas. Small number of maps. No dedicated servers. Cannot play vs. your friends. Only 5 v 5.

    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.

There are so many little and large issues that I can't recommend anyone to buy it at the moment. It's a REALLY fun game, when it works. But it's really infuriating with some of the issues that the developers failed to iron out after the closed, or open beta stages of development.

    Also, f**k ubisoft. You get around 300 renown/match, and you usually don't even get any XP or Renown from matches, due to a really annoying bug, and the ops (characters) start at 500, going up in increments of 500 up to around 2500 (I think.) It takes absolutely forever to unlock all 20 ops at this rate.

    Anyways, the gameplay is great. If they fixed the netcode, and the annoying little bugs, I'm sure it could be a contender for CS:GO.    … Expand

    Tom Clancy is turning in his grave. I'm not sure who took over when Tom Clancy passed away but they are doing an awful job trying to cash in on the legendary writers name. Tom always wanted his name to represent quality and that is why Rainbow Six was always known as a special forces simulator. Every time I played it since childhood I had a blast.

Rainbow six is the sole reason that fueled my interest in military life and eventually led me to serve my country.

    -The is probably the biggest disappointment of the year for me and probably any fan of the franchise. No single player?! What? Rainbow six always had an amazing single player experience, multiplayer was just an addition. This is by far the biggest negative the game has.

    -The game plays like a mix of call of duty and battlefield, this is not a good thing because Rainbow six was always unique in it's own style. It was the arma or flashpoint of special forces. Not a generic shooter.

    -The AI is stupid. I haven't seen such useless AI in years, I didn't even think it was possible for developers take so many steps backwards in coding the AI, but rainbow six siege just proves it.
    At one moment I was on one side of the room looking at an open door, I see an AI run up and hide beside the door entrance with his arm sticking out in my view. I just pistol his arm till he died. Then a second AI ran up and I did the same.

    -The game is a borefest. Like I said it feels like a generic shooter mixed with call of duty. I already played black ops 3 and it was crap, why would I want to play another call of duty type game this year.

    -Absolutely no incentive to work as a team. In Rainbow six it was a blast working as a team.

    -The levels are boring. Anyone remember Rainbox six vegas? It looked amazing at the time, the attention to detail was phenomenal. Remember looking out the window from the casino beyond the city scape and seeing little cars driving on the road in the distance? Well In siege you won't find that. The maps are boring and bland.

    -Destructibility is nothing new, just generally under utilized by game developers because they are lazy. Anyone remember red faction?

    -The rifle and pistol sounds, very unrealistic. As someone who has spent a lot of time at the range I can tell you this game actually has worse sounds than call of duty.

    All in all, I feel bad that Tom Clancy's name is smeared in this trash game. Please don't buy this just to show them we want a real rainbow six game and not call of duty.    … Expand

    Thank you, the Nazi company ubisoft, for removing all games from Russia and the subsequent removal of biographies of operatives from Russia. I am sure that you will do something bad with them. In any case, the game has stagnated and is stagnating. I would not recommend you to play it.

    Acrobatics firing over-powered assault rifles full auto, fully accurate that don't care for shields and armor. Seriously. Shotguns and grenades... etc just all useless.

    No single player campaign... none. No Terrorist Hunt that's real or of any substance like in Vegas 2. Just some cheap, trashy T Hunt that no one's played in years.

    Ranked is a joke, I played it once and no one cared... everyone just ran off in different directions and died. Or people who know map exploits are going to kill you through pin holes or areas you really can't get to. Some are on-spawn...

    There's nothing here but a very basic game that's built into a big kiosk.

    Vegas 2 compared to this is like a real game... this is just another under-developed, cookie-cutter rip off.

    Want casual challenges? Even your Lone Wolf is timed 10 to 15 minutes. lol Rush it.

    There's no content here.

    I WANT to play this... but I'm never inclined. It's work to play it. It's willpower to stay with it.

    It's just a gank fest with spray and pray.

    So many replays are hilarious... especially how inaccurate someone was shooting at you and somehow knocking you out in some random hit.

    Sometimes you'll just die... for no reason. Then you view the replay, and someone runs out from a corner and kills you.. but this was not visible on your screen AT ALL. lol No lag either... Who the hell knows.

    That's the other thing... hacked to death. Hacks hacks hacks. Location always known and being shot through walls. You can tell because people run EXACTLY to those points immediately. You can see plenty of examples on Youtube.

    No game in this just another dog#$%& kiosk. Spend more money!    … Expand

    I started playing this game in late 2016 which is about a year after its release. I was having lots of fun since I was playing a five stack with friends and we tried to approach each round like a true tactical shooter. I quickly realised that this game is nowhere near a tactical shooter and is basically COD on steroids but with worse hit register, gunplay and insane peekers advantage.I started playing this game in late 2016 which is about a year after its release. I was having lots of fun since I was playing a five stack with friends and we tried to approach each round like a true tactical shooter. I quickly realised that this game is nowhere near a tactical shooter and is basically COD on steroids but with worse hit register, gunplay and insane peekers advantage. Referring to the gunplay, bad players are rewarded because of the instant kill headshot mechanic. I've lost count of how many times I have died because someone couldn't control their spray and randomly shot my head. At the same time very good aimers are rewarded with this mechanic, it allows them to dominate the opponents by one-shotting them with any weapon.
    Secondly the desync between game clients and servers is simply ridiculous for a fast paced, competitive first person shooter. If you've never played this game, prepare to be shot at when the enemy hasn't even peeked at you yet on your screen. Also remember that even though you shot your opponent at least 5 times and have seen blood splatter all over the floor, it doesn't mean he has been hit at least once.
    It's been 6 years since the release of this game and I still feel like it's in beta stage. Every time a new update comes out some things get fixed, but more importantly more things get broken, more bugs, game breaking glitches. In 2019 I noticed this game does not want to have a future so I quit playing until about a month ago. I came back to this game only to find out that nothing has been done to the most critical issues. And now the cheaters: the game runs a battleye anticheat which is hardly doing anything. I've seen multiple cheaters at gold-platinum as well as at diamond-champion.
    The game is in a very bad state, players are leaving, pros are coming over to valorant and Ubisoft decided to move most of their dev team to the new extraction game instead of fixing siege. If the most popular siege content creators leave for any new games then I can officially call it dead.
    If only Ubisoft decided to stick to the original tactical shooter feel of the game and not the "cod on steroids with lots of microtransactions and pixel peeks" it would've been so much better. Well it's too late for it now, I've wasted around a 1000 hours fighting the game and not my opponents.    … Expand

    Game is epic... but technical aspect of this game is rubbish. Servers, ghost algorithm, match making, make this game one of the worst I played in my life and also best game ever (idea of tactical fps). When you rich point of skill where you know the maps and operators, technical part will make this game so bad, that you will jump to another one. Overall bad game!

    R6: Siege is Ubisoft's attempt to kill two birds with one stone by reviving a previously established IP and using a fast pass ticket into the competitive e-sports industry with one title. In doing so all they have established is that they can make games that are flawed by technical faults that heavily detract from an otherwise enjoyable experience.
    You assume the role as one of 33    R6: Siege is Ubisoft's attempt to kill two birds with one stone by reviving a previously established IP and using a fast pass ticket into the competitive e-sports industry with one title. In doing so all they have established is that they can make games that are flawed by technical faults that heavily detract from an otherwise enjoyable experience.
    You assume the role as one of 33 playable operators, each with a unique and distinguished special ability, and play alongside four other players in 5v5 multiplayer attack versus defend game modes. Round are respawn-free, meaning if you die, you're out until the next round.
    Multiplayer is where this game is significantly flawed, which on further inspection is a big concern considering that this game is a multiplayer game.
    A reporting functionality does exist, something that is a must have for every multiplayer game, but despite this, it never seems to actually do anything. This is partially due to the consistent influx of hackers that swarm multiplayer games throughout the year, and also down to the fact that users reporting other players don't receive any form of communication on what action was eventually taken on the reported player, if any was taken at all!
    The matchmaking system is inherently flawed, and new players can expect themselves to be paired up with other new players against a team full of people that should be competing for thousands of dollars in the competitive pro league.
    The game is also riddled with bugs and glitches; some of which are addressed, but most of which are described as 'identified by the development team' and no more. So much so that they even skipped a whole DLC to provide a 'season long' (3 months) period of updates exclusively aimed at fixing issues, which was aptly named 'Operation Health'. Many players (including myself) will tell you that although this season fixed many bugs, for every bug that was fixed, another 10+ were introduced.
    It is evident by all of these attempts that Ubisoft are trying to fix this game to a point where it would excel at being a great tactical multiplayer shooter, but seasoned game design veterans like themselves should know that simply trying is not enough to meet today's industry expectation.
    As with most Ubisoft games, they try to emphasize the highly accurate and realistic visual graphics. What actually happened at launch was a terrible mess of broken lighting in nearly every inch of your screen, and textures that simply didn't live up to the expectations that Ubisoft themselves set during their E3 demo.
    As time has gone on, they have got much better, and the next update promises to improve the overall graphical quality of the game, so I have no real basis to fault them on in the graphics department writing today in 2017. Had I been writing this review a year ago, we may have seen a different story being presented.
    Player progression is an aspect of R6: Siege that I often find being misinterpreted by reviewers who haven't explored the game far enough to understand how player progression actually works. Ubisoft offers two versions of the game, the starter edition, and the standard edition. This pricing model allows gamers who aren't completely sold on the game to purchase a cheaper version where they don't instantly start with a large collection of operators (classes) to play with. They can then choose to unlock these operators with in-game currency, which cannot be purchased with real life money. This is a great move by Ubisoft which allows all players, independent of financial capacity, to experience all of the different operators in the game.
    Gameplay mechanics are where Rainbow Six: Siege properly excels. Players can use RC drones with built in cameras to scope out areas of the map before engaging, and many operators have different traps and gadgets to apply a multitude of effects (both positive and negative) to players who happen to stumble across them, ranging from concussion mines to toxic smoke canisters. These mechanics provide a fun and unique playing experience with a map that is dynamically changing throughout the round, promoting players to think on their feet and adapt to the present situation. This plays well into the re-playability of the game; you are almost guaranteed to never have a match that plays out in a predictable scenario that you have experienced before.
    Options menus are where most PC games fall very short of the mark, but R6: Siege is an exception to this. The game features a highly extensive yet immensely intuitive settings screen, and good news for some gamers, the game features out-of-the-box ultrawide 21:9 aspect ratio support. The 'Ultra HD texture pack' that they offer, which is more than 20 gigabytes in size, doesn't seem to offer any form of improvement to the graphics unless you're using a fancy Dell 8K monitor, but heavily decreases the frame rate of the game, so unless you want to be the very best, you'll probably want to pass on that option.    … Expand

I put thousands of hours into this game and I am still Silver 1. I have been playing this game since Operation Health and still, I see people with a higher rank than me and they have been playing this game a lot less than me. I already got 15 messages this season (VOID EDGE) about giving me my MMR back because I played against a cheater and remember I AM IN SILVER, so I can't imagine how many hackers are there in higher ranks than that.
    Also, I hate how they added a battle pass system but you don't get it when you buy a season pass. You only get a 10% discount on it. I know that those are just cosmetic items but I don't want to pay 25€ for only 6 operators a year with recycled weapons and poor, boring abilities. I can't even remember when they last added a new map or a new weapon. And Ubisoft when you are only reworking maps why are you reworking maps which no one asked to rework. There used to be a map called Oregon, the best map in the game, easy to play on, not hard to remember, balanced between attackers and defenders and they ruined EVERYTHING about this map. Or for example, Skyscraper, used to be in the ranked playlist for almost 3 and a half years until they decided to remove it from every online game mode. Why don't you just rework it Ubi? But this is not everything, there is another topic... HITBOXES. Hitboxes in R6 are the most inaccurate of all games I ever played. If you are a player who can flick then you are **** screwed. You can shoot how much you want with the most accurate, fastest firing gun in the game but it won't register a hit. And have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Teamwork the wise? You didn't? Yea, me neither. In lower ranks, as I mentioned some weak players can't shoot, hear and they can't even talk. And don't tell me that they just don't have a mic, THEY DO! If they wouldn't it wouldn't show the f*****g icon next to their name. Glitches... Glitches... I still have nightmares about rubberbanding. Glitches in R6 are everywhere and Ubi isn't doing anything about it. Or when they are, they make it even worse. Clash, she was banned like 4 times from the game so they could rework her. She could even shoot through her shield. The servers are very bad. They are that bad that I was once waiting ONE HOUR for the match to start. But everything isn't just bad about this game. Mechanics are good. Destructible environment, counters to all operators. They care about the fans too. No other game except Battlefront 2 is giving things people want. They even added ACOG to BOSG (the meme gun). But that's about it. I can't even remember the last time I was happily playing this game. So my conclusion is ...
    Save your money and buy a better game for example every other game. Or wait until they fix it (that will never happen). I will keep editing this review so it can be most accurate to the stage of the game.

    Edits:
    -6.2.2020- DELETED
    -12.6 2020- DELETED
    -11.9 2020- DELETED

    -4.12. 2021- I stopped playing this a year ago and it still hasn't changed. It's still the good **** old matchmaking. I am really worried about the game's health because it looks like it has got a **** brain tumor. But I'll at least come to the game's funeral to **** in the coffin with other thousands of people so you better buy the biggest you can find Ubi.

    -29.5. 2022- Started playing this game when the new season came out because I believed that it would be fun again... I was wrong. It's the same good old **** Braindead teammates that leave AT LEAST once every match. Maps are literally unplayable for the attackers. You can only win the game if you start as defenders because you will most likely win the first 3 rounds and the attackers will have already given up by now. But that only happens maybe once every 20 rounds because from my experience I start as an attacker in 90% of my games so you can imagine how many of them I win. This season I somehow got worse after 6 years of playing this game. Last season I finally hit Plat 3 (still not my actual rank) and this season the highest I got was LOW Gold 2 so that only shows how bad the rank system is. Now I am not even mad I am just disappointed in the game's developers and how they aren't even trying to make the game better but I have felt like they want just to get fired all along.

    Rating: 0/10

    And Dear Ubisoft, please, FIX YOUR F*****G GAME.

    Нужен ли был серии R6 мультиплеер вместо ко-оп? - Нет

    Было бы хорошо выпустить редкую за последние годы игру про полицию и их спецотряды? - Да (но не про тренирующиеся друг с другом)

    "Только мультиплеер" привёл игру к балансным вещам, которые по факту выглядят убого, вооружение и прочие девайсы даже сложно описать словом абсурд, особенно посмеялся с тачанки и прочих стволов из 43го. Скоро добавят арбалет, так что стоит ждать совместку (в рекламных целях это не редкость) с Chivalry и появления оперативника в латах с луком. Проломы стен, разрушение объектов - всё выглядит смешно, даже такая игра как контр-страйк на её фоне выглядит симулятором спецназа. А АХТУНГ: R6 был симулятором, тут ничего общего с этим, казуальщина для сельской местности

    Не известно то, что нас ждало в отменённой "Patriots", но уверенность в том, что эта игра попала "мимо" не покидает игрока. Как f2p игра и (без шуток) конкурент Warface или Point Blank неплохо, но это не ААА тайтл ни в какой вселенной, а побаловаться пару часиков можно

And, Ubisoft recently implemented a toxicity filter, where if you say anything toxic, you get banned. Before that, I rarely encountered people using toxic language. But now, way more people than before start calling people different spellings of the n word to get around the ban, where before almost no-one used anything of that sort. And, there are people tricking other people into saying banned words, and I got tricked, and I was banned for 30 minutes (not too bad) and lost a ranked match and put my team at a huge disadvantage since it kicked me out. I would give this game an 8 or a 9 but because of how toxic the community has gotten after they implemented a horrible toxicity filter, I'm giving this game a 1. No other game immediately bans you for using a bad word. They often block your ability to chat for a while, or will replace those words with something else. But Siege just goes and bans you, even if you didn't mean to say it and were tricked. Also, if you type to someone to bring frags (frag grenades) and forget to type the r, you're banned. No way to undo the ban. And, I think that ban prevents you from refunding the game on Steam, so if you're tricked into saying something and you get banned, and you don't like the game, you're stuck with it. Also, there are words I've never even knew were toxic such as "c**n" (replace * with o.) And, in ranked, there are huge amounts of cheaters because Ubisoft hasn't updated the anti-cheat in a while. Overall, I would wait to get this game until this is all resolved.… 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.

    The problems come from the community. I dont really have gamer friends so I play casual, i have never played a single ranked game. Unfortunately the game is really biased towards groups. It is really clear when you come up against a team who talk and know each other as they just destroy the other team. Which is not a bad thing in itself, but when you are in a team of randoms is is a gamble which rarely pays off. You often end up in games with some of the most obnoxious people you could expect, who abuse the vote kick because they are bored or scream and rant because you didnt do what they wanted. Despite the fact that they never talk about plans, you are just expected to do everything for them. Team kills are rife and i dont mean accidental ones when people just walk into your firing line. Expect to be killed by your own team on 3/5 matches, either for not being telepathic or just for being the first one they see.
    If the game takes a minute to load, because it wont start until the whole player count are fully loaded up and ready (a good thing), then get ready to see a chat full of unnecessary and offensive nonsense.
    The calibre of your random team mates goes downhill drastically when school is out, a clear difference. to the point that i wont play evenings or weekends just because it is not fun.
    Ubisoft seem to take half hearted attempts to stem the toxicity but it makes no difference. For a while they were banning all over the place for toxic behaviour and the game became a nicer place for it, then they let up and its back to being unpleasant again. In my opinion they should be policing the game better in some way, it is a really high profile game and they should be making a point with it.

    if you have a good group of friends then i imagine this game is awesome. The game itself is great, well supported and kept fresh and interesting. If it wasnt for the free reign of trolls and toxicity its would be an 8-9 for me, which i think is a real shame.    … Expand

The game takes way too much time to load for everyone. I understand its a part of the game and I'm not saying to remove the ability to do it but spawn peaking is annoying to deal with and its super annoying to deal with defenders who jump off a second floor or they just exit the building and kill you with almost no risk since there's a 3 second countdown for the spawn peeker to only get spotted, the countdown can be reset if you go inside making it very easy to abuse the system. There are ways to deal with it, like droning certain areas, using long ranged operators like Glaz and Kali, but it just makes the game unfun having to constantly watching every peekable area so my team doesn't get killed. Sometimes the bullet don't register so headshots are kind of wonky, inconsistent sometimes and the game has several bugs but Ubisoft just wants to add more operator into a game with enough diversity for money, instead of actually fixing the terrible game.… Expand

No single player. 40% of the unique content requires microtransactions AT LAUNCH, feels like Game of War. R6 bucks my a $$.

    Multiplayer had the potential to be a fun $20 game on it's own, but it's lack of competition modes other than Attack/Defend make it absurdly over priced.

    A total bust. Thanks for the refund Steam.    … Expand

    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.

    My biggest problem with R6S is the amount of pointless restrictions and omissions in the game.

    Defenders can block doors and use remote explosives but don't get shields, flashbangs or decent DMRs; attackers are not allowed to use the heartbeat sensor or block the doorways behind them. There are no destructible light sources or thermal scopes. Even though there are cameras in the game,    My biggest problem with R6S is the amount of pointless restrictions and omissions in the game.

There are no destructible light sources or thermal scopes. Even though there are cameras in the game, motion detection alarms are not an option. It's as if Ubisoft were trying to make Counter-Strike with mutually exclusive classes instead of a proper next gen squad tactical game with customizable loadouts.

    While the maps are decent, they also have an element of luck to them, with some positions being easy to defend and some downright atrocious for any mode, and the position itself being random and not changeable (can't move the hostage/container/bombs). Getting the short end of the stick is never fun.

    And mechanically it's not very fun either. Instead of deployables being placeable via their projected model like in many other games, R6S forces the operator to shuffle back and forth until they magically raise their hands into the 'can deploy' position. It's not realistic, it's deliberately crippled control. Of course, barbed wire, bear traps and whatnot can not be placed on stairs, no, sir. Only on flat surfaces with at least a meter of free space behind them (for the operative to stand when deploying). All the traps, even the mechanical ones, have IFF, e.g. the barbed wire doesn't slow down allies. MAGIC!

    When the game works, it feels good. Yet, most of the time it just feels like "Game1 and Game2 did this so much better" and makes me wish for far more freedom in choosing loadouts and doing things.    … Expand

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).

    Hey there. I’m here to give anyone that’s willing to listen my opinion on a game I’ve been playing for quite some time—Rainbow 6 Siege. I’m just going to get right to the point:
    Siege might have been the best FPS I’ve ever played, but it ends up falling so flat that it hurts. It’s one of those games that most people classify as having potential—but just to waste it and not do what    Hey there. I’m here to give anyone that’s willing to listen my opinion on a game I’ve been playing for quite some time—Rainbow 6 Siege. I’m just going to get right to the point:
    Siege might have been the best FPS I’ve ever played, but it ends up falling so flat that it hurts. It’s one of those games that most people classify as having potential—but just to waste it and not do what could’ve been done several times better. I’m not saying that Siege has to meet every single one of my expectations, or that it needs to be what I want it to be—I’m trying to say that as a game in its genre it needs to cover some bases before even trying to be an FPS.
    I’m talking about net code, fixing the issue with peekers advantage, giving spawn protection to attackers for a few seconds to protect them from spawn camping, and lastly preventing players with more latency to benefit from said latency. These are things that have a DIRECT influence in the way people play the game. It affects how each round plays out, how encounters work, and how players approach the game. If you know that you will have an advantage over someone if you peek them first, you’re more than likely going to run in and go for a peek. If you know you can get one or two picks at the very start of the round, you’re more than likely going to take the risk and take out those key ops. If you see you’re connected to a server and you’re lagging a bit—and you have peekers advantage, you’re more than likely going to run in first.
    Most people take any advantage they can get. And are they to blame? No, I can’t say they are. I myself am guilty of peeking outside, spawn killing, and rushing in. If my team is down by one, or if we’re tied up, or if the other team is outperforming us by using these things to their advantage, why am I going to take it? I won’t.
    And here is where my problem with this game really comes in: it almost forces you to accommodate your play style to these factors. Most matches play out the same way now. The same repetitious outside peeking, excessive rushing, defenders not doing their job—which is defending the objective, etc. I feel like as a player, I’ve lost the advantage in being to choose the way I play the game. I feel constrained in my choices in play-style because everything I’ve tried doesn’t work. I don’t really like the way I have to play the game now, but because it works I do it. And that’s where the game becomes just about winning and that’s where the fun factor ends for me. I try my best to only play when my friends are online as well. When they aren’t, I stick to terrorist hunt. But when they are on, they ultimately suffer the same fate—and for the most part, share the same opinion.
    Lastly, I feel like the game puts too much of a focus on adding in new operators. It is clearly an important part of the game and helps to “shift the meta”, but the season passes and the constant weapon skin additions really just detracts from what I would consider other important content. And by content I mean fixing the stuff that I’ve mentioned earlier. I’m not about to claim that I know anything and everything about how to manage a game like Siege, but from my perspective I’d shift focus.
    In summation, the problem I have with this game currently is that it lacks the foundation it needs to support its wonderful concept. It focuses too much on other things—like weapon skins and other gear—when it should be directing its focus on what makes the game function. By allowing problems like peekers advantage, spawn killing, and using latency as an advantage, the game shoots itself in the foot. It limits the player’s choices regarding play-style tremendously, and instead of building on its concept—it stunts its growth. You can’t build a house without a solid foundation.    … Expand

    Gameplay wise this game is great, shooting feels nice, tactical options are giving a nice touch to your usuall run and kill. Thinking is almost as important as good aim.

    Unfortunatly matchmaking is a joke so at first you will be crushed by veteran players, either high level/rank or smurf accounts. This game is half made of smurf accounts. Strating from lvl 20 you may play rankeds where low ranking players will be much closer to your lvl of skill. This brings another problem as veteran players expect you to know maps etc.

    Toxic comunity is middle name of this game. You gonna be yelled at, and they gonna rage on chat. Occasionally you will be kicked or teamkilled. Its normal. That said there are also nice people in this game, generally based on my experience in Europe, 25% are toxic, 10% are nice, and rest simply doesnt give a **** Playing casual means nothing, they rage all the same.
    Game is also plauged by bugs. Every now and then im throwed out from mm because "The game you are trying to join is full." One day i couldnt play at all because mm wasnt working at all, so i couldnt find a match.

    Netcode and hitboxes are a big flaw too, sometimes it registers hits strangly, you see that you or enemy was aiming in one place and bullets fall in another (im talking about single shoots no recoil included). Sometimes in a death cam i can see that enemy is standing not where i saw him on my screen.

    Game isnt cheap at least by my standards, you buy this game and still have to unlock operatos. I bought starter edition as i dont mean a little grind. Time to unlock one basic op is around 10 hours. On standard edition it is much faster and takes up to one hour.

    As for fixing this game by ubi, I simply dont believe they are able to. Developers are working slowly, which can be a good thing, but they are workign to slowly. Most of bugs i have been experiencing are in this game from begining. When i bought this game about 2 week ago i got 2 free ops instead of 6. I contacted ubi support, but they werent able to fix this. So if they cant fix missing operators i doubt they can fix netcode etc. Most of problems are persent because of using Anvil engine, known from AC series, it doesnt work in multiplayer shooter with destructable objects.

    After considering all of the above i can give 5 out of 10. If all of the problems would be removed we would have 9/10 tactical shooter, sadly i doubt it will ever happen.    … Expand

    The way this game has been designed is awesome, I never played a FPS like this before. One bullet kill (headshot) with every weapon. Map designed to offer an infinity of possibilities with the new operators offered by Ubisoft every 3 months. The gadgets of the operators that allow you to create real strategies for attacking and defending rounds with a good team. And finally, the gunfights are uncredibles.

    And then..... And then... the **** load of "NOT OKAY" things comes to punch you right in the face...

    - But what are these "Things" you're speaking of my dear rager ?
    - Oh, really bruh ? You don't know ? Here is the list :

    Headshots (HS) that are not headshots, in both ways. Someone not aiming the head and doing a HS or you (or your team mates) aiming the head but not doing an HS. Two possibilities, one, the hit regulation is shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit (yeah yeah, this much "i"), second, their servers can't handle this much of players at the same time. Basically, when you aim at the head, you expect your shot to do a nice and smooth headshot right ? Nununununununununu, not with Ubisoft bruh. Just watch and cry cuz there is nothing you can do.

    Then comes the matchmaking. Just to be clear, I'm not speaking about the ranking system (let's not make this list too long as it is already), but the actual system that make you join a game for example. This system is incredibly buggy, it will not allow you to rejoin a ranked game after a connexion issue or even better it will make you join a ranked game after you canceled your matchmaking request. Sometimes you shall not be able to play with your friends cuz the game doesn't want you to create a squad. This system will do everything it can to f**k your sessions with your friends.

    Now let's do a quick window on sync. issues. You know this time when you saw a closed door that was actually opened for the server and you died because it was opened for the enemy as well ? Nope, you don't ? Welcome to R6S.
    But, do you remember this time you launched a ranked game and your game ended up crashing at round 1 ? Nope, you still don't ? Too bad, again, welcome to R6S.

    Last, but not least, the community. OMFG. I thought overwatch had a toxic community. That was before my first game of Siege. You shall see people Team Killing you because you took "their" operators or because you did not do as they wanted it to be. You think it's a small issue ? Sure, no problem. Just try to play two casual games without being insulted or Team Killed.

    Oh, I almost forgot, there is many, sorry, MANY hackers. I guess it's part of the game.... lol

    But to be fair...

    No, just kidding, there is not such thing in R6S.

    On the other end, if you can go over these "things" I'm talking about then its the greatest FPS you may ever play. Hope this can help.

    This game is amazing and awfull at the same time, so I thought 5 was a good grade.

    but the reason that i gave this game such a bad score is because despite its good qualities it keeps getting worst with each update.
    hackers are found in 3 matches out of 10 ( the difference of being able to reach diamond and staying plat 2 in rank)
    hitboxes are just broken and there are so many exploits (crouch spam,lean spam,sliding, glitches)
    and they are not doing anything about it, and every time they did something about it, it just made things even worst.
    i gave it a lot of chances to redeem it self but i cant recommend this game as its current stage.    … Expand

    Pros:
    - Intense and punishing tactical-squad based shooter.
    - About a dozen maps, intricately designed and balanced for both offensive and defensive teams. - Destructible environment - Several Operators to choose from with unique weapons and abilities. - Rewards team cooperation and strategy - Not a COD clone Cons: - Bugs (for now) - Players who do not communicate or cooperate    Pros:

    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.    … Expand

    1 point for single player. Multiplayer is simply not working. Game has serious camera issues. (You can't see the enemy, but he can see half of your body) Random grenade kills (got killed through solid wall) Defense cannot leave the building. (In tutorial enemy always waits at extract, but you are unable to do the same) You cannot choose the map you would like to play. All the scenarios1 point for single player.

    Rainbow six : Siege is an expensive multiplayer game with a very, very, very, very bad matchmaking system and netcode for the servers.

    Completely awful and slow camping simulator! I just can't understand why it is praised so much. I get that it's not my style of game, and I can see why some people like it. I adore that it keeps getting content after so many years. Any of the above won't stop me for giving it a 1/10 simply due to too much aiming through butt cracks for easy kills.

    An excellent and innovative breath of fresh air. The more I play, the more I like. I hope this is new role model for shooters to come. [Jan 2016]

    Siege’s multiplayer mode with its hectic pace and unpredictability seems to have a huge e-sport potential but with random teammates is often unplayable. [01/2016, p.52]

    Unfortunately, there aren’t that many maps available, but each one of them has lots of details and alternate routes, like basements and balconies. Even the airplane is much more complex than the archetypical “long tube with seats.” [Issue#205, p.48]
