Full of tense moments, high stakes gameplay, unique "operator" skills, and meticulously crafted destructible maps - the game offers a multiplayer team experience like no other - however, team gameplay is also where the game's weakness is most noticeable.

    To play and fully enjoy the Rainbow Six Siege experience, playing in a squad with at least one other friend is quite essential. However, an open mind, willingness to cooperate, and communication with one's teammates will help overcome these barriers. Furthermore, given the lethality of weapons found in the game, individual player skill and experience can be reasonably leveraged to compensate in solo-play, leading to impressive multi-kills and aces.

    Furthermore, a large majority of the server issues that plagued the beta have been resolved with the release of the full game (which relies on dedicated servers for multiplayer PvP). Last but not least, the Ubisoft team responsible for the game has been incredibly proactive and transparent in their attempts to help debug issues - providing constant updates on their twitter feeds/within reddit. In my opinion, the game has managed a very admirable day one launch considering the recent record of launches for popular triple A titles.

    All in all, the impressive quality of gameplay, graphics, and MOBA-style team drafting/cooperation makes up for the games flaw's by far - creating an unforgettable experience that will leave you wanting for much much more.    … Expand

People complain that there is no campaign, can't choose custom loadouts, bad graphics, not enough game modes bla, blah blah. The fact of the matter is that this game needs none of that. The GAMEPLAY is what matters in this game. Smart tactical movement, teamwork, and communication are key. Thus game is meant to be played with a squad. Lone wolf run and gun players will not like this game. As for the lack of campaign, who cares? If you want a campaign buy a game that has one. This game is not for you if that is the experience you are looking for. This game is for people who are looking for a tactical online shooter, that requires teamwork, communication and strategy. If that sounds like your style of game, you will love Rainbow Six Siege.

    As for the loadout complaints, they again make no sense when applied to this game. Each operator had a certain set of skills, weapons and abilities. You are playing as part of a team, and hence have a certain role to perform. Each operator had a counter operator available for the other team. This creates balance, promotes teamwork and adds a layer of strategy not found in any other shooter currently available on ps4.

    For people who say the graphics are on a PS3 level, that is absurd. The graphics are not the best on the system, but they are sol very good. It has a gritty realism to it that i personally enjoy.

    As for the lack of game modes, once again I say that is a moot point when applied to this game. A plethora of game modes is good when trying to appeal to the widest possible audience. Battlefield, COD, Battlefront, etc all have plenty of game modes to choose from. Despite that, most people have 1 or 2 modes that they play on a regular basis, and ignore all the others. This game as I said before is aimed at an audience looking for a certain type of game.

    Final verdict:
    If you are looking for a game with a 30 hour campaign, game modes galore, highly customizable loadouts, large open sniper friendly maps, run and gun gameplay, vehicular combat, or bullet sponge enemies that take a full clip to kill, then you are in luck. The market is filled with these games, go choose one and play until your heart's content. This game is not for you, and that's ok, but that doesn't make it a bad game. On the other hand, if you are looking for a tactical online shooter, this game is for you. In my opinion, this is the only game on the PS4 that offers this type of gameplay. Just make sure to play in a squad, use strategy and communicate, which is how the game is meant to be played.    … Expand

    - Music (yes, I found it nice honestly)
    - the idea that you got different agents (tho absolutely not as I expect it to be, more details below)
    - the concept of defending is somewhat improved in a certain way compared to its predecessors

    whats bad?:
    boy oh boy where do I start?...

    - LAG (the game is unplayable, 1 shots without seeing bullets?), it's just unplayable most of the times
    - No customization of the agents (very basic in fact, just look at games like Rainbow six: Raven Shield or Rogue Spear and you'll understand what is missing here... it's just dull and extremely basic...
    - No modes (seriously, every mode they have, that I guess are somewhat 3, feel all the same... no all vs all, no possibility to choose the map and you are not even able to choose the mod u wanna play... that is just depressing).
    - Match Making lag/loop (if you cant find a match, the solution according to Ubi, is to quit the menu and enter again... Why do I need to be forced to find a workaround like that instead of implementing a proper Match making feature?...)
    - Wall glitches, body parts passing trough the walls, showing off your position in a tactical game is just plain retarded

    and the list goes on, I just cba anymore to list the negative stuff. As a customer who basically has/had all the Rainbow six games for PC I am speechless at how low Ubi fell down, I am deeply saddend and very disappointed.

    Shame on you guys, how can you even feel good about this?...    … Expand

And you must complete all of them by yourself except for the 11th one.Once you get past the bootcamp of the situations though, you will get to experience some of the most tense, unpredictable, and fun online games in a long time. Online servers run smooth as far as I have experienced from playing hours online. The longest time the servers were down was about 2 minutes. 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. If you can overlook those, you still have the most tense online game (not just shooter) to come out this year.    … Expand

    I guess my problem is the game just puts me to sleep, there's no excitement or tension in this game - its just defend, now invade, back to defend. Maybe mix in a terrorist hunt. Back to defend, then invade again.
    And before you call me a COD fan boy/Run and Gun type, I'm not. At all. But I do like some actual tension and drama in my shooter - this has none. I was hoping it would be more like TLOU Factions....

Just small things i would liked tweaked that come off as an inconvenience more than anything else. stuff like being able to change my class up without having to back out of the match searching.

    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.    … Expand

    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

Twenty different special operators each bringing there own skill set for great variety. This is easily THE FPS to play, better than the competition. It looks great, sounds great and handles great. It's a pull no punches approach to a genre that has left its roots in realism for something to science fiction as of late. The matches are tight and intense and at any moment can shift from winning to losing if you are careful. The maps are fully interactive with security cameras to get the drop on your opponents to breachable walls to create your own path. Plenty of room for a large variety of strategies on both sides, so whether your attack or defense you and your team can create a style all your own. So if you like a seriously intense game play rooted in reality answer the call and join Rainbow6!!… Expand

    Plain and simple this game takes some what of a double digit IQ to play. Anyone from the COD fan base will have difficulty picking this game up quickly as it takes some time to get use to the idea of "tactics" with a "team". There is balance in the classes its just up to you on how skilled you are with a certain one.

There is balance in the classes its just up to you on how skilled you are with a certain one. From previous reviews I have read it seems that the PC version is having difficulties with spotty hit detection and server issues. I can say I put a solid 4 hours into this game this morning when I released and have had none of these problems. Cant give this higher than a 8 due to the fact that there is no campaign like other classic Rainbow games however the idea of the "Situations" could be a nice treat. Give this game a look if your looking for something better than the every year release of COD or the painful to play SWBF.… Expand

    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]
