    Fantastic mechanics all around, however not a 10 due to lack of campaign and split screen. (both rainbow six pillars). Also, if you are just getting into it this late, dont jump right into multiplayer, it is brutal.

    Rainbow six siege. So much potential, but Ubisoft cuts it dry. Here is my review for playing this game over the course of a year and a half:

Here is my review for playing this game over the course of a year and a half:

    Content. Let's see.. you have situations, casual multiplayer and rank multiplayer and of course the "realism" mode that all it does is take off the hud. Casual multiplayer, you will run into about a 50/50 chance of either finding some immature kid killing off the team mates for no reason. Just round starts and boom everyone is getting shot by this kid....or you actually get a team that is decent enough to actually try. Rank is laughable now. It is becoming more of casual than anything, no one wants to actually put forth the effort and slim possibility you will find a match with at least one of your team mates having a head set. This game definitely has it's benefits if the whole team is communicating but no one seems to grasp that concept. Situations is just a task you are giving to learn the fundamentals of the game and make multiplayer easier for you so that you do not go complete noob mode on anyone. It seems to fail for that purpose on some people.
    The game modes are: bomb, hostage, and secure area. That has always been it and seems like they do not want to add an extra game mode. The worse thing about that is, all three game modes are played exactly the same. It turns into a team death match and fails to deliver the objective. Which is fine and all but it just gets so old so fast that no one is doing what the objective is entails. It isn't the gamers fault, but the developers because of poor design. Look at the E3 trailer of the game and compare it to today's gameplay and you will see how they make it seem like one thing but it never plays out that way.

    Gameplay. The gameplay is actually really good. From the destructive environment, even though limited but not too much, to how different each operator plays and feels. That is about it on the good part that makes this into a 7 and not lower with of course can be fun with friends and all communication team. Downfall of this is the hit detection and how nerf they are making weapons that doesn't make sense to be nerfed as well as weapons that are as strong as they are. For instance, in the latest update glaz's gun lost hits damage rating by over half. It went from 186 to 90...but that 90 is only at far distance. If you are close, it is even less. But you have someone like Caveria, who has a pistol with what looks like a plastic bottle attached for a silencer that will knock you down with a couple of shots or kill you with a couple of shots depending how close, and has a damage rating of 90. It seriously doesn't make any sense whatsoever and it is just going on a downward slope with the hit box's that make this game frustrating. Too many instances where I am shooting someone center chest or head and they see me and shoot a couple of times and I take way more damage then they did and even on the kill cam they are repeatedly taking hits and blood coming off of them, barely anything.

    The upside is they have improved the servers and how long it takes to get into a match. But that is about as much progress as this game has gotten. Hopefully they will turn things around and spice it up a bit with new game modes, better hit detection, and stick with unique operators that continue to play so differently. It is a decent game at best when you are on an all chat team or playing with friends but it needs variety and it needs it fast.    … Expand

    Story? No. Great player base? also no. Reliable connection and fair matchmaking? no again. The game does have a good base but lacks any polish, absolutely filled with cringe and cheap shots. This isnt call of duty but it is not the great RSV2. Gets better if you play with friends.

    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:

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.
    (EDIT: This review is based primarily around the PC version of this game--so if there's any inconsistencies I apologize. I didn't notice that this was for PS4)    … Expand

    Graphics, there nice looking but seem to be on par with ps3 graphics

    Sound, it's nice very nice I use the sound to my advantage all the time but in this game you have to use everything to your benefit. voice acting in cutscenes seem useless since the only time a CS happens is when you start the game, unlock an operator, or when you do a Situation(which is the games tutorial).

    Gameplay, plays normal like any other FPS with WAY less customization on weapons. The game is a real challenge since you have only 1 life, you have a point system on health, and no way to heal your health. If you die you have on down to get revived but if you go down again you die. The guns are specific to the organization you choose and the weapons are specific to the person you choose. There is little customization on weapons, scopes, lasers, grip.
    You have 20 people to choose from but there split between 2 defenders and 2 attackers so you really only have a choice of 10 people. defenders defend there position in the building while the attackers infiltrate the building and that's the WHOLE **** GAME. Sure there's other mods like hostage, bomb, or the classic terrorist hunt but that's about it. Each operator has about 1-3 guns to choose from and 2 of the operators have nothing but a shield. The shield guys have piss poor shield aiming and if you want to sight aim you loose the effect of the shield. Mutiplayer is ok but it's just the same as terrorist hunt but with other players. This game got old real fast with the fact that you can unlock every operator and all the customization with the guns within a days time. from there you can do challenges but whats the point if you unlocked everything already.

    Controls, feel fine no big issue

    Balance, from what I could see each weapon is decent since it's all mostly CQC you always get the full damaging power of the gun so it's really just keeping the gun stable or getting that headshot's.

    Overall, it's not a bad game it really is fun but there's a lack of content and mods to play. it's all just 5v5, kill the other team or do the objective. it's like the Star wars Battlefront how it's got a lack of content.    … Expand

    It is very disappointing though it has some unnecessary flaws, without a singleplayer campaign it feels it is lacking a lot of contents and Ubisoft had been lazy.. I played Rainbow Six Raven Shield back then it had an awesome campaign each mission had detailed background and briefings, even 12 years ago had AI teamates to play with you singleplayer. The most IMPORTANT issue is that the Terrorist Hunt mode (which I only cares about as I don't enjoy multiplayer) drops to 30 Frames per second on PS4. I expected a 60 Frame smooth movement as advertised, I wonder why they couldn't make it into 60frames in such a small map.. Even Battlefield could handle 60 frames in 64 player matches. Apart from this me and my mate had problem choosing maps, we thought we can't choose maps in matchmaking. There is actually a hidden setting in options you could turn off what maps you don't want to play, they should have made it more obvious..
    Overall I really love this style of game, in recent years FPS had been all about sci-fi and I am glad to see a realistic shooter back out here, great game with lots of potential.    … Expand

The rest of the time they were up and running with little to no lag. Which is impressive to say the least. The subpar graphics, average controls, and lack of single player campaign hold this game back.

    Rainbow Six Siege is actually a surprisingly good game. It's a thankfully breath of fresh air amidst the run-n-gun regenerating fair that FPS' usually get. It's just a shame that everything that surrounds the game is so **** bad.

    I can't praise enough about the gameplay. The emphasis on tactics and teamwork makes for a very tense and exciting shooter.

It's just a shame that everything that surrounds the game is so **** bad.

    I can't praise enough about the gameplay. The emphasis on tactics and teamwork makes for a very tense and exciting shooter. If I could just play the game like I wanted this would be an 8 or 9 out of 10 straight away. Unfortunately, Ubisoft is pretty good at stopping that.

    The different operators are pretty well balanced. Everyone has their own niche and can be useful in their own right. One can shoot clusters of bombs into a particular room through a breakable surface, and another can set up additional cameras to spot enemies from. There are a decent amount of operators in the base game, however a significant amount are locked behind season passes. Yes, plural. It's not the most gregarious example in gaming, but after being spoiled by the likes of overwatch, it's hard not to raise an eyebrow.

    A major issue however, is the servers. It's not infrequent to be kicked from squads, games and experience large spikes in lag during gameplay. For a game in which a fraction of a second can mean the difference been victory and defeat, it's a very concerning issue.

    Another problem is the players. If you don't go in with a squad full of friends, you're very likely to find yourself on the receiving end of a painful situation. Team killing is extremely frequent, and more often than not completely on purpose. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be very heavily punished other than a slight docking of points. It's not unusual to find the defending team a man down before the attackers have moved an inch.

    Speaking of which, quitting is also very frequent. The matchmaking doesn't always find replacements, often meaning you'll find yourself in a match where you are missing teammates and at a significant disadvantage. Even just one missing teammate can make a match impossible to win. Terrorist hunt is almost unplayable for this reason, as by the one minute mark you'll frequently find yourself with only two players on your team. That's ignoring the pretty severe issues this game has with AI.

    Finally, bugs plague this game, even to this date. In my short time playing, I found numerous glitches such as your gun turning invisible, or getting stuck at 0 bullets in your clip and being unable to reload or do anything but move despite having ammo.

    In summary, Rainbow Six Siege is a very good game. Unfortunately, it seems Ubisoft royally screwed the pooch on this one and packaged it very incompetently.    … Expand

    First, there is no campaign.
    Second, there are basically 3 modes--attack and defend, hostage extraction, and king of the hill. The objective for each one of these modes is always within a room so there's not a whole lot of variety when planning an attack other than breaching in. The variety is limited by which operator you choose...
    Third, the customization that was in previous Rainbows is replaced by these operators. Personally, I like to create my own soldiers and enjoyed doing so on Rainbow Six Vegas and RSV2. Each operator comes with a few certain select guns and items, and you cannot customize the appearance of the operator.

    As far as gameplay goes, it feels like an average first person shooter once you actually find an enemy. It takes one bullet to the head to confirm a kill and you have to react quickly to survive. Spraying and praying can be just as effective here as in other popular FPS's. Since the objectives are located in a certain room of the map, defenders will camp and hide around the objective more times than not. Luckily, there are a several infiltrating operator abilities to help counter this camping. Attacking the defending team can be fun when the teamwork is there and you can avoid some of the overpowered defender abilities (Frost.)

    Matchmaking is awful and it takes sometimes several minutes to get into a ranked game.    … Expand

    Fantastic jump forward in the tactical genre. I've sunk over 100hrs into this game by this point and still find myself coming back to it more than 4 or 5 times a week. It definitely has issues however.

    6/10 for me. Here's the thing. Without question, the game is challenging. The tactical considerations for each scenario are extensive.

The issue is that the complexities of the situation play out in a sterile, claustrophobic atmosphere (especially if you're defending) that makes for tension, sure, but without any inherent fun involved. And, without the fun, there's not much incentive to grind through the learning curve to become proficient in the game, from where I'm standing. Graphically, it's ok...the gunplay/feel seems pretty solid while the character modeling is kind of dated...but really, that's only an issue when watching your team-mates run towards the structure while attacking. Once in perpetual crouch mode while inching stealthily around the map, this kind of thing hardly matters. Destruction, as advertised, is everything...which plays into the whole tactical complexity schtick. It seems like enemies can make holes almost everywhere, so "cover" is misleading almost all the time. You can't mark, beyond scout missions at the beginning with the little drones, so if you see something that looks like a human appendage, you'd best laden it with bullets. And if you hear definitive sounds of human mucking about just beyond a said destructable wall, let er rip in that direction as well. Sound is uber-amplified almost to the point of absurdity, in this game....obviously meant to be an important thing to pay attention to for aforementioned reasons.

    Anyways, I"m sure this kind of game appeals to the rabid tactical shooter fanatics but, for me, enjoyment overall is lacking, squelched by the crushing emphasis on all things tactical.

All you get are tiny challenges known as "Situations" that take place on all 10 MP maps and a little bit of story after you complete the last one. So don't come here expecting any compelling story to the game.

    Gameplay/Multiplayer: To get the other 2 modes over with: "Situations" is throwaway, and "Terrorist Hunt" (co-op mode) could be better if it didn't recycle MP maps, have stupid AI, and DIDN'T run on 30fps. Anyways, the real meat of the game is in its MP component where it's 5 v 5 on several maps with no respawns, and with 1 team pitched to defend a certain objective while another team attacks. And while the MP had so much potential to be a strong e-sports game, the MP disappoints with some balance issues and horribly casual-ized shooting. With the game, their mode design is based on classic e-sports modes (5 v 5, no respawns, etc.) with attack/defend modes. With each side, you'll be treated to a healthy amount of "operators" - characters with special gadgets from 5 elite CTUs (US, UK, RU, GER, and FR) and most of them are fun to use, have quality weapons/gadgets, and some are balanced well - keyword is some. Unfortunately, some Operators - like "IQ," "Tachanka," or "Pulse" are underpowered when compared to their peers; some - like "Thermite" or "Mute" - are almost essential if you want to succeed on either side; and the 3 Riot Shield Operators on the Attacking side are incredibly annoying to deal with and disrupt the flow of the game. 99% of your engagements will be in close-quarter hallways, so having a shield come in and harass you with pistol rounds is annoying even if they only hipfire. It also doesn't help that, for a "tactical" shooter, there's 1-hit kill melee. Way to give more power to the shields. When it comes to modes, there's only 3 (you decide whether that's good or bad): one acting as Search and Destroy from CoD, one where you must either rescue or defend a hostage, or one where you must either defend or secure a specific room full of chemical weapons; each one plays out almost identically. At the beginning of every round in a game, a "Preparation Phase" begins where for about 45 seconds, the defending team gets to set-up and fortify the room containing the objective and the attacking team uses small drones to locate the objective and identify enemies. This phase is great as it allows for planning to occur before the "Action Phase" even begins since the attackers have to work together to find the objective and identify what kind of Operators they're up against while the defenders have decide which walls to reinforce, which doors to barricade, etc. Even after the Preparation Phase ends, the first minute of the round is also tense since attackers have to be cautious about entering the building and watch for cameras and other gadgets getting in their way while defenders have to be on the alert for where the enemy is engaging from using sound, cameras, or other means to locate the attackers. Everything is all well and good....until the **** hits the fan and the guns start shooting. The biggest sin this game can ever accomplish with being a serious and "tactical" shooter is having some of the EASIEST recoil in any FPS. You could also lower the recoil further by putting certain attachments on a gun. When you get into a gunfight with someone - especially if they're a defender and have chosen a good spot to camp (not using the term negatively here) in, the game turns into CoD with how easy the recoil is the maintain and usually, whoever has the better camping spot will win most of the time. Part of this reason is the 1-shot headshot rule which DOESN'T belong in this game due to the casual shooting. Most of the time I die from a headshot is because the guy sprayed me down and got a lucky hit instead of having to be a skilled shooter and compensate for any recoil. This leads to continued frustration after experiencing several insta-deaths since those shooters hardly earned their headshot kill. The game also suffers from repetition because of its lack of variety in modes. In the end, I'd like the MP more, but repetition, balance issues, and casual recoil pretty much tainted my experience. 5/10

    Graphics: While not photo-realistic, the visuals are still good with texture quality and models. Besides the overly obnoxious lighting when peeking in or out of windows, the visuals are fine. 7/10

    Sound: The game's strongest quality. Everything from footsteps, the gunshots, to explosions all sound incredible. Only thing missing is a score. 9/10

    Verdict: R6:S could have been the next big FPS with its excellent sound and tactical planning element - but it stumbles due to casual shooting, wasted game modes, and several other flaws already covered. For a recommendation: rent or pick it up at a price drop on the PC - especially if you want a 60fps+ experience on ALL game modes.

    The Rainbow Six series has always been known for its team-based, tactical multiplayer action, but it’s always had a gripping story to back it up.

Without a campaign to devote assets and time to, the development team was able to nearly perfect its    The Rainbow Six series has always been known for its team-based, tactical multiplayer action, but it’s always had a gripping story to back it up.

    In Rainbox Six Siege, the series abandons its narrative roots to focus solely on multiplayer action, but that’s not totally a bad thing. Without a campaign to devote assets and time to, the development team was able to nearly perfect its classic game modes, while introducing a few new ones.

    The game’s main multiplayer mode is made up of five-versus-five game types, as players communicate to either break in and rescue hostages or work to keep the good guys out (i.e., you’re the bad guy, sorry). There are 11 maps in the game as of launch, but publisher Ubisoft plans to add additional content via post-launch downloadable content.

    And yes, there are microtransactions, which seem to be an upward trend in gaming as of late. Players can pay a bit of real cash in exchange for progress boosters, which help in unlocking Operators, Siege’s focal point in multiplayer progression.

    The Operators are split up into two categories, Attackers and Defenders, and are used in the game’s multiplayer mode. Each Operator has special perks or attributes, similar to that of “hero” characters in games like League of Legends.

    The Operators come from military backgrounds from around the world, including British SAS, FBI, SWAT, Spetsnaz and more, and they sport a cool cinematic each time you unlock one.

    One thing players will take note of fairly early on is how clean the destruction in this game is. You can blow holes in floors or walls with charges, peek around corners and chip bits of the foundation with your shots and get into every nook and cranny of the game world.

    In addition to the main multiplayer mode, Siege also brings back everyone’s favorite: Terrorist Hunt. Players work together in teams of up to five players to take down a group of terrorists on a map and mode selected at random.

    It’s fairly self-explanatory, but nigh impossible on higher difficulty levels, something Rainbow Six is generally known for. And all of these modes have plenty of depth to them, which is peculiar considering other multiplayer-only releases this year have been lacking in content (see: Star Wars Battlefront).

    But if for some reason multiplayer isn’t your thing, first off, you should probably pick up one of the many single-player-focused games released this year — but if you’re bored of those, then Siege’s Situations game mode is for you.

    It’s nothing too deep, but these Situations (there are 11 of them) help you learn your way around the game itself, a glorified tutorial if anything. But again, these get more and more difficult the more you progress, and the game rewards you in stars for completing them.

    The game also has one glaring issue: server problems. More than a handful of times you’ll experience a server error, whether it’s because of a spotty connection or because a player leaves the game. Sometimes it’s just at random, but it doesn’t detract from the overall experience.

    At first glance, Rainbow Six Siege may not seem like a game worth your time. Its game modes look lacking and there’s is no real campaign, the gunplay is fairly basic and the multiplayer seems bare-bones, but it’s a hell of a lot of fun. Though we didn’t get the amazing Rainbow Six: Patriots we were all hoping for a few years back, Siege is still a tactical shooter worth playing.

    The lack of a singleplayer hurts this game, seeing as all other R6 games had decent ones.

    Multiplayer: The main focus is multiplayer.
    You can play 4 modes, of these are 2 completly useless. The only viables are CASUAL and RANKED. Multiplayer plays smooth, although litered with DDOSers (Console) and Hackers (PC).

    Gameplay: No match is the same in R6S. Although that statement is true, it gets boring after awhile through the sheer toxicity and seriousness of games, even in CASUAL. Most of the time you get enemies which think they will be the next pro players, making this game not really fun. Toxic teammates, that kill you for every little thing dont help. You will get burned out fast.

    Bugs and gliches take long to be fixed, mostly 3 months, some even returning after they got "patched" Also the devs seem to only listen to the pro players, not the playerbase.

    But when i look at it in 2020, it is a completely different game. Hats off to Ubisoft for transforming the pile of garbage that R6 was into a more enjoyable and balanced experience. Yep, Ubi has almost re-touched every single aspect of the game, from barricades to the defenders shields and more.
    However, despite the general experience of the game became decent, still this game doesn't stand out in a very good way, personally: microtransactions are everywhere, the game will force you to spend real money in order to keep up with all the new operators (which, by the way, have a ridicolous price); most of the new operators are not original at all, using the exact same abilities of others (such as Nook and Warden); also, there are not new maps anymore, the ones left in the game are getting rebalanced, which is a good thing, but they get stale after a while. The mini events are cool, but in order to get the skins of that event you have to (guess what) pay with real money.

    It's actually kinda sad that this game completely shifted away from the original idea of counter terrorism units: that's the thing that attracted me the most when i started playing it.

    Edit: i forgot about players using XiM or Conus Plus, when you see someone killing you aiming and tilting sideways be sure he is using one of those, works even on Ps4 and devs dont give a single S.    … Expand

    Very buggy game and it is very space taking game on your HDD. Almost 150 GB...

    If you do not play for full game you will have disadvatage with low agent pool. But it is still fun

    Rainbow is one of the best tactical online shooters. But what is holding back is the lack of content every season. They dont add any new maps which makes the first 2 weeks of the season fun then I wont play it for the next 3 months. The ranked game mode is really fun and competitive but it has its flaws with high ranked players purposely loosing there games to play bad players.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bon, je tiens à me présenter en tant que joueur et temps passer sur ce jeux pour que mon avis ai une certaines importance :
    PSEUDO : MrSnowy92
    Temps de jeu :+1000h
    RANK : Diamant
    Platform : PS4/PS5. Bien que je joue encore à R6, je ne retrouve plus la jouabilité d'avant. On dirait que les nouveaux propriétaires D'R6, n'en ont plus rien à faire de leur jeu, à part de l'argent (je n'y voit aucun inconvénients) Mais on peut facilement se rendre compte que au fur et à mesure que les mise à jour viennent le jeu se transforme en un jeu visant un nouveau public, (du genre des joueurs de fortnite venant sur R6) Donc le la commu devient plus toxic. Également que c'est mise à jours apportent en général rien d'exceptionnel (un perso par nouvel saison avec des armes recyclé) ce qui est franchement décevant.    … Expand

    If you're looking for a break from the run of the mill fast paced first person shooter this is the game for you. It combines a wide array of operators with unique abilities and weapons with tactical gameplay which rewards good positioning, gadget use and game sense. The game has plenty of unique mechanics including one-shot headshots, the lack of a jump button and incredibly destructible environments but the one that makes the game different from its competitors are the drones and cameras. It allows players that are dead to contribute by pinging enemies or making callouts. The base gameplay is well thought out and surprisingly deep. Every match can play out in millions of different ways. However this game has what I like to call an "Overwatch problem" where players are forced into playing a certain way in order to win, some operators are incredibly powerful like ash, ace, jäger or mute and others are incredibly situational or next to useless like glaz, nökk, warden or wamai. Some objective sites are very easy to defend, and others are almost impossible. Ubisoft also seems to have no idea how to use there time because despite some maps being in desperate need of a rework (Theme Park, Kanal and Skyscraper) they decide to rework outback, one if the better maps in the game. If this concept was in the hands of a more competent game studio it could be one of the best shooters of all time, but instead we have to deal with Ubisoft fumbling yet another golden opportunity.    … Expand

    Another Ubisoft title, by Tom Clancy's.
    Seasonal updates have allowed it to last a long time and maintain a solid player base. The graphics are not the most modern, although the said updates have allowed for some rejuvenating tweaks. The controls and mechanics work, allowing ample mobility, which is also quite intuitive. The story, being a game based on online multiplayer, is absent, but    Another Ubisoft title, by Tom Clancy's.

The controls and mechanics work, allowing ample mobility, which is also quite intuitive. The story, being a game based on online multiplayer, is absent, but that's okay. The defect of all games of this genre is and remains habit. Abandoning it for a few months, or a year, could blow the player away once he takes it back. The various non-competitive modes help to a certain extent in this.
    However, it remains one of the most successful and popular Tom Clancy's chapters, also for the scalability of levels and, above all, for personal skill, which remains the best way to get some satisfaction with this Ubisoft title.
    The grade would be 7.5 / 10. Given the absence of a history and the advancing age, I decided to round it down.    … Expand

    Dont know, dont care, but this games gunplay is the top of the line. it feels solid.
    i loved this game, its a grind to get a new character, but it is doable
    It is a really fun, tactical game. but. people suck
    They shoot you in the back, on your own team
    They fight, scream, argue, then kick you.
    Play with friends, or not at all. Get Good...

    Siege is a stressful game to get into. Initially I was brought into the game because of the one shot headshot mechanic but once I reached level 100 I drifted away from that. About 33% of your time you will more than likely be dead or waiting for the drone phase to finish. In my opinion there is too much down time but there is always Call of Duty with little to no down time.

    Un excelente juego arruinado por una comunidad tóxica y un nulo emparejamiento , el modo clasificatoria está hasta sierto punto des-balanceado y las cuentas smurff arruinan mucho la experiencia de los nuevos jugadores.

    Siege can feel cool and inhospitable, but when the conditions are right and you're playing with friends, the game's tense gameplay and measured pacing makes for a refreshing, cerebral contrast to the run-and-gun hyperactivity of most online shooters. [Feb 2016, p.104]

    Impossible to recommend as a single-player game. Siege is an absolutely splendid multiplayer shooter for well-organised (and forgiving) teams, with great tactical terrain destruction. [Feb 2016, p.86]

    A slight but superior multiplayer experience. What it lacks in single-player content, Rainbow Six Siege makes up in sheer quality. Just remember to use voice chat. [Issue#265, p.76]
