    Algo caro, pero se amortiza con la cantidad de horas que entretiene. Especialmente jugando con amigos, la experiencia es más inmersiva y táctica. Muy recomendable.

    Graphically slick from the outset this is game worth playing with good headphones as it's no slouch in the soundfx dept either, with sound actually being used greatly to identify threats and other changes in the environment.

    Variety of choice, decision making and communication. These are the elements that make this game great. EG.
    You can hear someone running in the room above, running carelessly down the corridor. You might place a breaching charge on the ceiling and explode your way into the room, or you could start shooting through the ceiling hoping you hit somthing, or you could drop a little drone and race up there to view through the onboard camera, marking anyone found for your team.

    The environments are nearly completly destructable and can be used to shoot through, smash through, detonate or re-enforce as you see fit. Every game plays out differently due to player choice of character and decisions made on the fly and in response to team mates or opposition..

    Even playing with complete beginners can be fun due to thier hilarious and often clueless decision making, accidentally slipping off roofs, having to run away from their own badly thrown grenades and just plain panicking. My own personal worst was planting a C4 charge, then panicking in response to an enemy entering the room immediately detonating it, without moving away. Wrong trigger! Dead team mates can cycle through point of view for the live players making it even more embarassing if you're the last man on your team standing at the time.

    Slowly as you come to understand the multitude of guns, armour, and gadgets available, you can begin to plan for each encounter more effectively. It's a game that really lends itself to team chat. Nice to see a game that brings people together in a game requiring thought, planning, teamwork and communication in order to succeed.

    If ubisoft keeps their word and continue to support this game with free maps and characters, this game can mature into one of the top tier competitive shooters on the market.

    PLEASE TAKE OFF YOUR NOSTALGIA GLASSES PLEASE.

    Rainbow Six Siege is an FPS. There is very little to say about it in mechanics, it puts you in a first person perspective in multiple environments with a varying assortment of weapons.

    PLEASE TAKE OFF YOUR NOSTALGIA GLASSES PLEASE.

    Rainbow Six Siege is an FPS. There is very little to say about it in mechanics, it puts you in a first person perspective in multiple environments with a varying assortment of weapons. While the nostalgia of other Rainbow Six games sits in this one's back pocket with giant neon signs saying "Please refrain", This one does manage to stand out.

    BASICS:
    While Siege has no single player campaign, much like the much worse Battlefront, it does make up for it in certain departments, while many Fans of the series will complain about this, please understand: This is not The Rainbow Six Vegas series. While those games were known for their tactical shooting and intense campaigns, they lacked a competent multiplayer and satisfying online experience. Siege does make up for that, in its very action packed game modes in which normally you are split up into 2 teams, the good and bad guys, the bad guys are in a house with 2 bombs, the goal to protect the bombs until the time limit runs out or they kill all the good guys. The good guys have to kill the bad guys or disable the bomb. In many ways it is like a team death match but with alternate objectives. This adds a flare to the game that can't quite be matched by any other. The AI is relatively decent, sometimes it acts a bit on the idiotic side, but through my experience, it worked decently well. So if you like tactical shooters, this is for you, it pushes teamwork above all else, beating solo terrorist hunt is very difficult , so using teamwork is key. The game does have a decent amount of customization, weapons, and attachments. So in conclusion, if you like first person shooters, then this is for you, if you are a die hard Rainbow Six Vegas fan, than you will be disappointment. However, I felt the game was a nice balance of tactics and action.

    Rainbow Six is a novel based on Tom Clancy's book, the original series had: Single Player (very elaborated btw (cause Tom Clancy was alive)), dozens of weapons to choose or even not carry any guns for any operator (several agents from around the world recruted to R6), you could choose from several camouflage suits, choose if it was heavy, medium or light armor, the kind of bullet to use inRainbow Six is a novel based on Tom Clancy's book, the original series had: Single Player (very elaborated btw (cause Tom Clancy was alive)), dozens of weapons to choose or even not carry any guns for any operator (several agents from around the world recruted to R6), you could choose from several camouflage suits, choose if it was heavy, medium or light armor, the kind of bullet to use in your weapons (rubber, hollow, fma, etc), a super detailed planned phase with briefing and realism (one well aimed pistol shot and you are dead, even on heavy armor).
    All that... is gone... as other guy said in another review Tom Clancy is turning in his grave... in Siege you have Operators, from diferent CTU around the globe (not R6 agents) using their CTU gear (R6 did not have any of those, they should not be recognized as they were a SECRET CTU).. some operators only have one primary weapon, you can't choose not to pick a weapon, you can't host your own game if you want. There is a progression system on MP where you can accelerate the process putting more money on it (original R6 MP let every one pick whatever they want, everyone was equal). Sometimes you have to shoot 5-10 times to kill a terrorist... you have an HP bar... the graphical settings have to be tweked or it will look terrible (all console filters on)

    And that is it... I just lost any hope on this series

Attackers try and locate a container by scaling the building breaking through barriers and precise plan breaches. The defenders have to barricade the premises, set traps and shields to stop the attackers at all costs. Each class has a unique ability and a set pool of weapons each ability is used greatly to benefit the team whether its setting up bulletproof stronger shields and electronic heart monitors to breaching hammers and jammers. The terrorist hunt is back, the classic rainbow six mode is here you have to take a defuser and disarm 2 bombs with lots of respawning terrorists. So in conclusion rainbow six siege is a fantastic shooter and is a must buy for any tactical shooter fan Expand

    This game is the realistic tactical shooter i've been waiting for. No map, all based on listening (awesome). A bullet in the head means you're dead no matter what gun ("boom headshot"). Game borrows a lot from what is great about Counter Strike (amazing compliment for a new shooter). Just run and gone, you're dead. Every step needs to be thought out and planned with your team. I am not a fan of games that don't come with story modes, but the multiplayer is just that damn good you don't need it. The way it is set up for awesome infiltration and defensive maneuvers that create these awesome action pact one of kind experiences with your friends. You really find yourself saying "damn that was so sweet" *hits share button on ps4*. Every class has a meaningful perk. Every perk has a counter perk. So many maps that have usually 3 different points of where the action happens so depending on where the bomb or the hostage is each map has 3 different experiences alone. Then on top of that, depending on how people play the game changes again. It's crazy how different it is every time. In other games a map loads and you know exactly what you are going to do. Run left look down that hallway, shoot because people usually run there. Then go to the next spot where the spawn point is..... none of that here. Each time a map loads you have no idea what you'll do until you collect intel and talk with your team to figure out the best way to attack based on the Rainbow Six members you'd decided to spawn as. I just can't say enough about this game. The only multiplayer i've enjoyed over the years is The Last of Us and many games that have come out have just let me down. Metal Gear. Battlefront. Destiny. But Rainbow Six has finally brought a Counter Strike type of game to console.

    Responses to 0 ratings:

    "no single player" - not worth giving the game a 0. multiplayer creates awesome scenarios that are difficult and more realistic that no AI could give you in a story. i always support games giving you a story for the sweet movie scenes and the opportunities for cool events of gameplay. but for the first time ever, i am ok with no story.

    "game plays like a mix of call of duty and battlefield": not true. call of duty is fast paced and people are jet packing everywhere and you get shot from behind every two seconds. Battlefield takes you 30 minutes to get into a spot to shoot your gun or find out where the hell the battle is going on. Rainbow Six is on a different level.

    "The AI is stupid"- that's true, the random side modes you do, the AI is pretty dumb as nails. Depending on the difficulty. I don't know what difficulty that person was playing on.

    "game is a bore fest generic shooter"- just plain wrong. no further comments

    "absolutely no incentive to work as a team" - this person needs 4 friends. i played all the old rainbow six games and this one demands way more teamwork in multiplayer than the last ones

    "the levels are boring." - ARE YOU FN' KIDDING ME

    "destructibility is nothing new" - 0 rating for nothing new. *claps s l o w l y*

    "rifle and pistol sounds very unrealistic" - i don't own the guns in the game so i can't comment on this

    "bad hit detection" - haven't had a problem with this. kill cams show weird things sometimes

    "stupid balanced shotgun" - one of the shotguns is mad strong but it seems like they reduced the range since the beta. i used a pump action at short range and had to hit them twice, other times at mid range it is once. really depends where the bullets end up.

    "can't create classes between operators" - i like how the guns are broken out between the classes. it gives it a thought out balance based on that operators perk. but i can see why someone would get frustrated with this.

    "no 3rd person duck and cover" - so happy they got rid of that. it is not realistic which is what this game is going for. if i put my back to a hallway wall i wouldn't be able to see down the whole damn hallway without the other person seeing me. if this game had that no one would be able to infiltrate anywhere. Yes, it was fun in the old games, no, would not work here at all and thank goodness it is not in this game.

    Hope this was helpful for those who are on the fence.

    Rainbow Six Siege for the PC is the best First Person Shooter, I've ever played, period!

    This is a 5 vs 5 game which involves 2 sides Attackers v Defenders.

    Rock, Paper, Guns, Bombs and Special Abilities

    Operator's have a various weapons + a Special Ability.

    Gameplay last 4 minutes. The Attackers storm the building or plane by whatever means they can. Maybe abseiling in through windows or roof tops and breaking in doors or blowing holes in walls.

    Defenders it is a tense time waiting. Sometimes you all might just be in one fortified room undiscovered by the remote drones of the Counter-Terrorist Law Enforcement but with the knowledge it is inevitable that you will be found.

    The tension and suspense are heightened knowing that this is a no respawn game, it's do or die.

    The game is played with the first team to win 3 rounds are the victors. If you start on Attack the first round the next round you will be defence and so on. But if the game reaches 2-2 then a Overtime round is played but this time a coin is flipped to see which team defends and which team attack. By this time both teams get to know each other a bit, tactics, if there is teamwork going on, what kind of Operators the enemy is likely to use plus how good players may be.

    It's a game of cat and mouse, tactical, skilful and cunning, with a touch of tiny bit luck thrown in. 4 mins can seem like a long time in this game. Then action might erupt and it could be all over in a minute or it could be a series of engagements. It could be a big engagement at the beginning followed by a lull in the middle of the game and a stealthy tense ending. The game could be sniping at each other in CQB (Close Quarter Combat) for the entire game. I also noted players bating each other into traps and ambushes. Players using little tricks they have learned to get an advantage or the drop on the enemy, first shot can be crucial and can be the advantage to getting the kill. If someone sees you and you don't see them, your dead 90% of the time.

    Gunfights

    This game has the best gunfights in any shooting game I've played period! This is the first real game where cover feels like a real life situation. You could be hanging upside down like spiderman abseiling down a building shooting in a window from the top when people expect you to shoot from the bottom. Drop down shoot or throw grenade or flash bang or break a barricade or plant a charge or a special weapon.

    Bullets whizzing past ping off surfaces, you may even get hit by a bullet or two, if you get hit in the head it's game over for you. The gun play seems so real, once you get someone in your sight they can easy be dead. But the game has body armour, it varies from Operator to Operator or if you get given extra body armour by a team mate. Body armour can enable you to take a bullet or two maybe 3 or 4 even I'd say about 5 at max and you're dead. The game feels so life like that I could take three people out rushing me with a single clip of an automatic weapon. The gunfights are so intense it's like the wild west in game. I can't even begin to put it into words just how exhilarating this game can be. The gameplay is perfect, 10 out of 10 for that. Well balanced, great mechanics built around a fantastic concept. It don't get better than this. I think the programming team have reached their pinnacle.

    Certain games come round not very often maybe once a decade that set the bar and are groundbreaking. This game is not so much groundbreaking, it is a number of the best ideas from games it the past put together in a perfect package that sets the bar in gameplay.

    Gameplay, gameplay, gameplay, tactics and fun, that's what this game is about.

    The environments are mainly destructible and feel very real, for a game it's really quite amazing.

    The game has built in voice comms and people do communicate with each other more than any other game I've played, when you play with random's. I should imagine playing with friends takes this game up another level and this will be a brilliant e-sports game.

    Atmosphere & Maps

    The game's map are great and varied. You get 11 map from Airplane's to Hell's Angels motorcycle clubs like something out of “The Sons of Anarchy”. When in the Hells Angels club you have rock music blaring out the duke box. Most of the time though there is a eerie silence that is only broken by footsteps, voices or gunfire or explosions. It's all very tense and believable. The 11 maps have different places to place booms and hostages and can change from game to game, room to room, making the game have variety and the maps have more than one play style. With no two games feeling the same.

    From the controls to gun play to game design to atmosphere, this game hits all the right notes.

    Score

    Atmosphere: 9

    Sound 8.5

    Graphics 8.5

    Gameplay 10

    Overall 9.8 out 10

    This is a Classic game that will last for many years to come and I'd say the best first person shooter I've ever play.

    There are a lot of fanboys out there with hurt butts, and I don't understand it. Sure the game doesn't have a single player campaign, and I get it, not every one plays multiplayer, and there are some people who love story striven games. It's reasonable to be upset since Tom Clancy is a writer; and you know he's all about building a story with believable characters, and blah, blah blah.There are a lot of fanboys out there with hurt butts, and I don't understand it.

It's reasonable to be upset since Tom Clancy is a writer; and you know he's all about building a story with believable characters, and blah, blah blah.

    But at it's core Rainbow Six is still very much alive in this title. There aren't many games on the console market that focuses so deeply on team tactics. All that planing before a mission, giving your red team, and blue team their planed routes and go codes, that's all there. The same amount of finesse and planing goes in to how you assault your objective just like any other rainbow six game. Of course, this applies if you have a good team, but I've ran in to more players willing to listen and work as team with strangers more-so in rainbow six siege, than any other game on the market. So if you don't have a group of guys to play with, it's not very hard to meet like minded players who whined up on your friend list after a few games. I've added at least 20 and started a community of PS4 called, You Gotta Be Tacticool.

    I do have to admit though. The controls can be a bit funky at first, but I suggest adjusting your stick dead zones (if you're playing on consoles), turn up your sensitivity, and turn off aim assist if you're playing terrorist hunt, and you should be golden. My setting for my dead zones are turned all the way down to five, and my sensitivities are set to five and that's my sweet spot.

    Now if you do want to play single player, there is the classic terrorist hunt, and the new situations. Situations are basically a weak ass set of "campaign" missions that teach you how to play the game. But honestly, Multiplayer is where this game really shines.

    I love the team work, and the how easily the dynamics of a map can change. The destructible surfaces really make this game interesting, and if your team is really on par. You can spank just about any defending team. Just last night I played a rank match that went 9 rounds because each of our teams were so spot on with attacking. It was one of the best games I've played so far, and the most exciting. Of course we won since we were the last to attack and took the match point.

    I'm giving this game a 9 out of 10 only because they're are a lack of maps and instead of adding to level designs, they are creating additional operators. I don't have any complaints about game modes because they suit the theme of the game incredibly well.

    So, if this game had more content, it would have defiantly received a 10/10.

    Old review from when the game first came out:

    This game gets a 2 for only after a year getting a real anticheat (Battle eye), and for the incredible destructibility that the environments in the game offer. albeit to late to make this game what it could have been.
    The game has way to much interp, and has a very real problem with people exploiting the **** netcode and ping advantage afforded by this.
    This game had the potential to have over throne CSGO as the big competitive shooter, but languished in Ubisofts incompetent hands, game breaking bug after game breaking bug fixed and then introduced by Ubisoft, and day one issues that continue to plague this game to this day. most glaring of which is the **** netcode, and broken matchmaker that can leave you sitting in queue for upwards of 40 mins, in some cases in ranked. it completely kills the momentum of the game, but that is not even what really killed this game, no its death came early right at launch when this game was left with no anticheat what so ever for at least 3 months before "Fairfight" came, and even then it was highly ineffectual to the point that the game became unplayable due to the amount of rampaging wallhackers in the community. only after the introduction of Battleeye did the game really show its true potential, while still being hamstrung by **** netcode and broken matchmaker. This game is a prime example of how a big name Developer can absolutely destroy a great idea.

The fact that Ghost Recon appears to be next after Future Soldier only makes this feeling worse.

    The game is totally worth purchasing provided that ubisoft do support this game for a long amount of period rather than just leaving it and pushing Seige 2 in our throats. By long term i mean like the devs are supporting dota, CS, BF4, GTA Online.

Put in 800 hours in less than 2 years and still play it everyday. Highly Recommend it. Lots lots of fun. Very much worth the $15 price Tag I got it for (Complete ed) On Ebay.

However if you're the kind of person who buys battlefield and then never plays the singleplayer then this is for you. The game is highly tactical and hardcore-focused. You can't just go in and play a short 10 minutes and then be done with it. This game takes time and an understanding of the maps, tactics and the other operators in your team.

    If you play with a group of people who DO understand some basic tactics, have knowledge of the map and know the other operators in the team and are willing to work with them then the game is absolutely amazing and just kills every other MP game out now. Apparently there won't be "dlc" content but rather "early access" to the new stuff when buying a season pass which is perfect. I never buy that stuff and this way the community doesn't get split into 2 or 3 fractions.

    If you like tactic shooters and teamwork - then this game is for you.

    It does not have a singleplayer campain, but I don't want one, and everyone complaining about this shouldn't have bought this game; it was clear that there is only multiplayer.
    Regarding the coop and training missions: They don't make much fun an the AI is pretty stupid, but for learning the game it is ok (As I mentioned earlier, I only care about multiplayer anyways).

    About Multiplayer:
    It makes a hell of a lot of fun, but not everyone is going to like it, since it is a little bit different from COD or Battlefield, although after playing lots of Battlefield 3 before I quickly felt comfortable in Rainbow 6 Siege.

    The main issue at the moment are hitdetection and sometimes the netcode, but you don't notice it too often. Sometimes you wonder why the other one killed you so fast, but usually you just were in a stupid spot. The sound is sometimes also not perfectly matching with the game (someone is shooting and you can't hear the shots/ explosion sounds come from the wrong direction), which is quite annoying. But even though there are this problems, I already had over a dozend of playful hours in this game.

    If Ubisoft fixes this issues and works on a few more improvements, this game will be really awesome, but it is already a really good game. Another thing to mention is: There are not a lot of alternatives in this genre besides maybe Counter Strike, so we should be happy Ubisoft made such a game.

    It does what it says it will, but only that. The game while excellent, doesn't deserve a full price tagit is only a single multiplayer mode, which would be one of many in other full price games. at 2/3 to 1/2 of its asking price it would be an instant buy. There is also no single player.

    Do not buy this expecting a successor to Vegas-style gameplay. There isn't much to do beyond the siege game type. Terrorist hunt is shockingly bad, almost every entrance is blocked and you have to breach - no opening doors here.

    If you want something a littler spicier than camping inside small rooms, you're out of luck. No deathmatch, no team deathmatch, once you're dead in siege, you're dead and left waiting. No server browser, crappy matchmaking.

    I find the lack of variety in gameplay surprising considering how easy it would be to throw a few people on a map and let them shoot it out. If you're expecting ANYTHING like the previous instalments, you will be sorely disappointed.

    The game can crash or give you an error message in any stage, for example:

    You are trying to create a lobby with three friends... CRASH

    You restart the game (I forgot to tell: You can't skip the intro, so I had days where i watched it 20 times while restarting the game) and invite your friends again into the lobby... ERROR

    5 minutes later finally all your friends have joined the lobby again. You start searching for a game... CRASH

    After restarting you give it another try. Finally, after 10 minutes of searching for a match you get one. But hey, have really all of your friends joined the match? Of course not, because one got an ERROR message.

    15 minutes later, you can finally join a game with all your friends. Everything looks good, you can play the first rounds. Maybe your team is about to win. And then it comes, the loading screen of the last round ... CRASH

    ...

    This description is no product of my fantasy! It goes like that every single time, on every frickin' day.

    I have had days, where I spend twice as much time in the loading screen or in the lobby menu, as I had real playtime. At the actual stage it is completely broken. Don't buy it, unless they release some really big patches! But at the moment this game is just another example, how greedy the publishers (in this case Ubisoft) are. They just had $-signs in their eyes, so they had to release the game before christmas. With maybe only one or two months more time for the developers, this game could have been so great.

    Summary: The gameplay itself is pretty good.

    BUT: The amount of content is very weak for a full price title and matchmaking + stability can only be described as an catastrophe! In my opinion it is just dishonorable for a big publisher like Ubisoft to release a game in such a horrible condition!

    For me, the game does all the right things. It might not be the return of Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear, and it might have more than a few bugs to iron out before it's competition ready, but it's exactly what I expected -- competitive SWAT 4 -- and Ubisoft keep saying the right things about their post-release plans. Only time will tell though.

    When this game came out it played like a beta. -1pts

    To report an actual cheater/glitcher It will literally take you 5-10 minutes. and then its unlikely anything will happen unless you filmed it. -2pts

    When you **** up the match for you team by killing the hostage there is no consequence. This doesn't sound to bad until you realize how often it actually happens. -1pts

    The matchmaking system is horrible for ranked play. The system they use searches for players your level to join with so its an even match, this only works if theirs plenty of people playing, unfortunately you'll be lvl 30 and joined with three other lvl 30s and maybe a 60, and the other team is full of 60+ lvl players that are max ranked lvl because the system joins them together on the same team first. This makes winning any ranked game Very difficult as it Literally stacks the best players against you most of the time. -2pts.

    There is a horrible random crash that will crash the game during a game. At any moment usually within the first round. this can happen as often as 3 out of every 4 games or maybe not at all. It all depends. -1pts

    UPLAY has to be used which is horrible, just horrible for PC players at least. -2pts

    It can take up to 2-3 mins just to join a game. That added in with the fact that it might crash for no reason means it could and has taken me 10+ mins to join an actual game. Which just sucks -2pts

    No hardcore mode for a game that lacks the need for a more realistic mode, this usually wouldn't be a problem, but this is a Rainbow is game, a game Known for its realistic modes, not the **** shot several times and still running around stuff. -3pts

I was expecting a bit more content, especially with the weapon attachments.

    This is the same studio that created splinter cell blacklist, I would atleast imagine they could implement a balanced flashlight attachment on our guns for example. And making Thatcher able to turn off all lights in a small area would really work well with this, but I'm going off-track..

    All in all, if you ask me if it was worth the money, I would say yes but that's very relative. Some people are less fortunate and I can imagine it not being worth the money for some people.

    Pros: Solid gameplay, good optimization
    Cons:
    -Missed oppurtunities probably due to rushing to release
    -Server issues
    -The whole Operatives thing is tacky

    Conclusion: If Ubisoft keeps working on this title, people will be playing this for years to come, and it might get e-sports possibilities. If they don't, it's merely a fun tactical shooter that will die off within a year.

The lack of PC exclusive features leave much to desire due to its underwhelming lack of dedicated servers & small differences to the console version. Given its triple-A release price and prestigious series history, Siege has a lot to live up to, but its inevitable repetition leaves more to be desired. Nevertheless, Siege is a laugh to play with friends & unlocking the many operators & accessories feels progressive as well as rewarding. Expand

    One of the most tactical shooters released in recent years, Rainbow Six Siege feels like a breath of fresh air compared to the increasingly stale mainstream fps franchises like Call of Duty and Battlefield.

However, you have to play it through Uplay and Ubisoft isn't exactly known for being great at supporting their games. Even now, months after launch, there are still some netcode issues and bugs tainting an otherwise great game.
    Also, if you're looking for great single player content, it's not here. Siege is a game that's best experienced online with friends, and playing it any other way will be a lesser experience. The full retail asking price might seem a bit high because of that, but the game's well worth picking up on sale if you're at all interested in a more thoughtful and complex online shooter.

I would go as far as to say this game explores things that I have always wanted in Counter Strike, particularily when playing cs_office and militia. CS is fun and I will never throw a stone at it, but this stuff just doesn't quite work there. That's the reason the defuse maps are the only ones in competetive rotation. RS Siege on the other hand covers this aspect very good. If you wanted a real building assault scenario simulation, this is the closest one out there.

    The team balancing is fairly good and adds spice to the game where other games don't deliver. Certainly a new experience, in a lot of ways. The skill ceiling is also very high, and not just weapon skill ceiling, which is a good thing for a competetive shooter. The operators are interesting, unique and require quite a bit of thinking to master. Unfortunately, some operators seem more valuable than others, some of them cover a large amount of different events, some are narrowly specialized and will be deemed useless in many situations. The mechanics are fairly easy to understand, after the first match you will be all set about the basics and how to's.

    One of the biggest problems of the game is the content. Yes, the maps will be added in the future, but as it stands, you will be bored quite fast with most of the maps, even despite the replayability value, which is enormous. As it stands, the game needs more maps, perhabs missions and events to gauge the community. If not, the game will die very quickly, don't expect the life span of counter strike.

    Oh, another annoyance - weapon skins and the resultant microtransactions. That very same **** we have to deal with in CS GO, it returns.

    I would also say that locking operators behind an experience wall is a bad move of Ubisoft. This makes absolutely no sense for a class based shooter. I have an approximate understanding of the reason why Ubisoft did this, and it's not a good one.

Loading -> The matches are short and every match has a loading period before and after, as well as a one minute setup phase that gets old very quickly. Latency is extremely high, I frequently cannot edge around corners and shoot someone reliably because I don't receive a server packet until i've already been shot.

    A short lived multiplayer game, priced way beyond it's worth, with your typical competitive douchebag community. I wouldn't recommend it.

    Patch has done wonders to the hit registration. Weapon feel is 'juicy' and it feels satisfying shooting people. The maps are great with lots of tactical possibilities.

I always have a hard time to decide which class to use because there are quite a few. And also in terms of maps I am satisfied, of course there could be a larger number of maps but for now it's good especially that some of those are pretty large and it's a must to know each of those very good for the ease of describing locations on voice chat.
    There is a quite large number of negatives, like matchmaking times, loading screens in between rounds, disconnection from servers (even during ranked matches!). Weird "deaf kills" that only on kill cams they look proper, sometimes really bad hit detection, not enough customizations and rewards in game. Occasional fps drops from stable 90 to 20-30fps...
    I was gonna give it 7 because of overall bugs (some of those are being fixed with first patch ex. ultra texture pack), however there is no better feeling than playing with your friends with teamspeak enabled, helping each other, scouting with the drones, setting tactics, preparing defenses, etc. I have not played game like this and I am looking forward. I found this game very satisfying. I advise to play it with friends, because lack of communication and teamkillers can easily break the game.

    Thought I would post my review since some of the popular reviews here can be unreasonable. First off, as you can tell the score I really like the game, if there was a decimal system I think 8.5 would be fair. Lets first start with pros and cons:

    pros:
    -Different take on a shooter compared to COD and Battlefield, the game is very strategic and tactical forcing players to play as a team and be patient
    -Destructible environment and operators that have their individual perks are game changers for rb6 series
    -No 3rd person cover system, you can peak in/out in fps mode instead
    -A lot of problems from betas were fixed in final version

    Cons:
    -Kill Cam can be messed up sometimes
    -Hit detection still needs a bit of work
    -No campaign (but to be fair, devs stated that from the start)

    Overall I personally think it's a solid game. It brings a different take compared to games like COD and Battlefield where everyone is running around spraying each other in the face from hip and anybody can just jump in and do great. You can't really do that in Siege, you gotta play as a team, you gotta be relatively more tactical, and you gotta have a bit more patience and approach things smartly. Ubi went with a simple formula, 5 on 5 mp matches you got attackers and defenders (who defend a bomb or a hostage, similar to cs) and attackers have so much time to complete the objective. Each side have unique selection of operators, who have their own perks such as: being able to blast through reinforced metal walls, attach a grenade device that fires several nades into a room, being able to revive teammates from distance, gassing attackers with butane gas bombs. The combination of operator dynamics with their special perks, destructible environment where you can breach/shoot through, and different defending/attacking spots on each map can make each game seem different even if played on same map. And even though the game orients around 5vs5 mp matches, it does have these sp missions called "situations" where you complete simple objects to get familiar with some operators. There's also return of terrorist hunt, and it has been tweaked a lot since beta to a point where it's fairly playable on hard and can be enjoyable, and contrary to what some might say, the AI are not dumb at all. They aren't the smartest AI in the game, but they are good at flanking players and taking cover, and take advantage during certain moments where player might be disadvantaged.

    Also I noticed that some players complained that Siege has dumbed down the franchise and not all like some of the original Tom Clansy's Rainbow Six games. And even though it's true that it's not completely congruent to likes of Rogue Spear, it still seems to be a step towards more original rb6 games since it doesn't have that ridiculous 3rd person cover system off vegas and health does not regenerate (unless you revive a down teammate, which typically brings it back to 50) unlike Vegas if I remember Vegas correctly. And to be fair, we should see this coming a mile away since very few developers can successfully take newer games back to the likes of original, especially something as complex and relatively much difficult to play as more original rb6. I think relative to Vegas, they did a great job bringing back RB6. Also some might complain lack of campaign. And I'm not going to go out of my way to justify the lack of campaign, devs warned that since the game was announced. It's certainly not at all like COD or Battlefield. However I would love to see campaign in this game, I don't know enough to truly know whether lack of campaign might be the reason for what seems to be solid multiplayer experience, or more of a lack of initiative.

    A lot of bugs that persisted in beta such as: seeing limbs through wall, taking forever to find a server in a match, bad hit detection, bad netcode, etc have been worked on and to most extend fixed. In addition certain balancing tweaks were made such as lowering accuracy for firing from hip with a pistol, which made shield operators invincible. Though they are few issues that need to be fixed, for example there are times when you get killed and you want to find out how it happened, whatever kill cam shows doesn't seem to make any sense. Still with what I consider to be minor issues, the game is still enjoyable, very few games come out fully polished these days, and I have confidence that ubi will take care of them in short time.

    I do like how ubi is planning on supporting the game with free new maps, weapons, and operators. My only concern about that, is even though new operators will be free, it will take 25 hours to unlock without paying for them, which from my standpoint seems a bit unreasonable.

    Price-wise, I can't say I can justify that this game worth whole 60 dollars but I do think that it's definably worth around 40, and with all the sales going on right now it's not impossible to get the game for that much.

    There are a few things that Ubisoft needs to address to make it a 10/10 game, such as the Casual mode format that is so different from the ranked experience. The menu to access skins etc.. also feels a but awkward.
    Anyway, if you love CS, or Battlefield, R6S is for you. This is the ultimate tactical shooter.

The design of the operators is reasonable, with a few operators having flaws and being power heavy. The main issue with the game currently is the matchmaking. The game has so much potential to keep growing, however when you're playing ranked game as a Gold and get matched up against 2 diamonds, a gold, an unranked, and a bronze. The game struggles to put the diamonds where they belong because of diamonds queuing with low rank players. It's unfortunate that it's taking so long for them to fix this major issue, however they have hinted at making changes to the matchmaking queuing though, nothing has been confirmed yet.

    All in all this is an incredible FPS game, I'd recommend trying it out. It's not perfect which is why it's receiving a 9/10 from me.

She also tells me to do a "waffle stomp" but i don't know what that is so please help. Anyway 10/10 masterpiece my nan plays this and she plays candy crush. PLS rate 5 stars

    This game is now my main competitive shooter. Its your standard 5v5 attack defend formula but each character has special gadgets and abilities that make them unique. Sunk over 1000 hours in so far and love all new content added since launch.

    Its My favorite FPS Game. It has a few bugs that should be fixed. Head hit boxes are pretty messed up and very toxic people if you report don't get kicked. but besides that it is a great game

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is by far one of the best first person shooters to come out in years. Granted, the game has a slew of problems with things like peeker's advantage, and a noticeable issue with operator balancing which seems to become more noticeable each year. This game will kick you to the dirt for your first few dozen hours, but I found every second of it enjoyable.

This game will kick you to the dirt for your first few dozen hours, but I found every second of it enjoyable. Getting a team together that just clicks and demolishes anyone is one of the most satisfying things I've found in a game for years, the team play is solid and there's always something new to learn every day and after 1500+ hours it's still my favorite multiplayer game to date. Would recommend to anyone who wants a competitive and engaging experience with countless hours of fun to be had. Expand

    I have never seen this coming. Multi-player Fps here my brain needs to go 110% power mode. There are too many things you need to think about be just in one round of this game. In-depth strategies and tactics guaranteed.

    There are some problems with peeking, operator hitboxes (i am looking at you Ash) and censorship, you write one bad word and get insta kicked ( I know its bad i get it,

    Rainbow 6 is one of the best fps games out there which teamwork is as important as your individual aim. Not only is the result of good teamwork satisfying in the game, the tactics and all the different and unique gadgets that are used in the process are amazing.

    The game itself as a tactical shooter is the best in nowdays. But the view model... I got killed many times by this **** mechanisim. I stay in cover , I cannot see the enemy, but the half off my body exposed and get killed. And of course hitreg... I shoot well, but when I see an enemy face to face, I mostly die. I have 180ms reaction time average and 30ms ping. Does not matter... IThe game itself as a tactical shooter is the best in nowdays. But the view model...

I maximized my personal skills in thousands of hours, like map knowledge, accuracy, response time, but the game mechanics don't let me develop further. So confusing... Expand

    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]
