    is tactical and immersive, plays well on tension and can be frustrating that you dont want to stop playing, just to get better !!
    Maps are fun to conquer, situations are really good and shame not more, as fun training levels

    Multi is where its all hit and miss.
    MP is core and important, the big problems lie in constant server issues, where games wont even connect or online just stops.
    If in a match that suddenly gets 1 sided, it stough really.
    ppl often drop out, more so on CASUAL, or even team kill, and then thats it, good luck !
    CASUAL does not punish, RANKED does, and sometimes its truly frustrating.
    The patches have been quite good, changing or nerfing weapons and adding gadgets effectiveness is all good.
    it sjust the players that tend ot let the game down, other than server issues, and i think CASUAL play, as quick to connect as it is, is let down by other players, with no penalty. Renown penalty is pretty dire, and the 15 mins RANKED block is good, but if ya get kicked cos some loony runs in front of ya shot, and hey ho, kick him !

    Yet this again brings back how good the game is. No wild firing, need to watch where bullets fly, tactics and movement and watchign all sides, instead of run and gun, that ends horribly.
    so yes, im still addicted, has its flaws, and yet there is a great game here    … Expand

    This is one of the best FPS game ever, very realistic, awesome characters, amazing maps, and intense games. A well made tactical game, there's not other game like this in the market. I love that its getting more content for free, and more players are getting into the scene. Buy it, just do it.

    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. If I could just play the game like    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. 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

    A very well made and put together tactical first person shooter, good graphics, a true game where working as a team will benefit you very much at the end of each round.
    This game is one that takes practice and is not noob friendly, I highly recommend doing training missions before jumping into multiplayer if you are new to this franchise.

    This game is a great game for solo playing and even playing with a team online, this game does not have a single player dedicated campaign however the game is great for online and I that in my opinion that the games has good graphics.

    The game has a lot of operators which need to be unlocked with ingame currency, but it is fairly easy to unlock them and it you earn a fair amount of currency which in a few games you can earn enough in game currency and after a few good hours of play you will be able to unlock all operators.

    The Season Pass is also cheaper than most games and it doesn't affect the people who don't have the season pass. As the season pass only lets you have the new operators for free and you get them earlier for 7 days.So the season pas will not make it worse for the people who don't have the season pass because in most game you have to do a lot to get the currency.

    Thanks for Reading.    … Expand

    Rainbow Six Siege is a funny beast. The most enjoyable aspect of this game is the Team Kill. There is nothing more glorious than dropping a C4 on the armour bag as all your other team mates run to it, grossly unaware of the pain coming their way. Take the Team Kill away however and it would be a distinctly remedial and average squad shooter.

    R6 Siege is by no means a bad game it is just a bit meh. Maybe under the influence of Columbian Marching Powder whilst getting a rusty trombone from your latest Tinder conquest (who is a bit nice looking but is probably a few Mmm Bops short of a Hanson), you may get the same enjoyment as you would from the superior Overwatch.

    In summary, if you are massive troll and just like winding up your friends can't fault it. Furthermore, it is a solid entry into this genre....but not the best....that is Overwatch.    … Expand

The title comes as a complete surprise for me, certainly one of the best games 've played this year. I hope Ubisoft gets into the practice of including year 1 DLC with the core game for 60 dollars, it definitely helps.    … Expand

    Holy crap I hate this game. Not only is it a massive disappointment, it's not even really a Tom Clancy game, let alone a Rainbow Six game. If a hyped game is just disappointing, I'd say that.

Not only is it a massive disappointment, it's not even really a Tom Clancy game, let alone a Rainbow Six game. If a hyped game is just disappointing, I'd say that. But this goes beyond disappointing. It even goes beyond bad. This might just be up there with some of the worst games I've ever played, and the fact I'm giving it a 3 says something about how many bad games I've played. So let's talk about what makes this game so bad. First, it has a serious lack of content, removing campaign and local multiplayer. Anyone who has ever played a Rainbow Six game will know that these are staples of the series, so they're pretty much essentials. A lot of multiplayer games these days suffer from these additions being removed when they could greatly benefit it. Rainbow Six seems to be the most upsetting one for the removal. Instead of singleplayer campaign, you get operations. Operations are essentially tutorial missions to help you get a feel for gamemodes and certain situations. Let's make this clear: they're awful. They aren't fun, they don't teach you anything. Apparently, their purpose is supposed to be for early XP gain. However, after completing half of them, I barely made it to level 1. It's pretty useless doing them, so I wouldn't bother. Next up we have multiplayer, the heart of the game. Is it fun? Well, no. When you break it down, it's really not. For starters, matchmaking is terrible. It was broken from launch, and that hasn't changed to this day. Even if the matchmaking worked, the multiplayer couldn't save this game. Don't get me wrong, the concept is cool and the game plays well, but it suffers from a multitude of issues. One main one being that the game tries so hard to stress that strategy is key. Well, it's hard to strategizing is pretty damn difficult if your team won't listen to you. I can't blame the developers for this, but I can blame them for why they don't listen. Nobody wants to strategize. Honestly, I'm not feeling the urge to do so either. A lot of the tools given to you seem like they should be used to plane out some trap or attack, but I'd never use them in any certain situation, so they feel like they have no use. It's not just the feeling of no strategy, though. This game is also loaded with bugs. Still. Still! It's been 8 months, why haven't they fixed the bugs!!!!!!! Anyway, I'll wrap up this review so I don't get too angry. To sum it all up, don't invest in Rainbow Six. It's complete garbage. 3/10.… Expand
