    Easily the BEST First Person Shooter of this generation if not all generations.

In fact one of the very few games where their unique player count has been increasing since the release. This only happens when a game is THIS good and improves over time.

    The Operator system is one of the best things ever happened to gaming. Yes it is a hero system but done so well that it changes the game play each time a new operator is released.

    It is like playing a game of chess and you don't know what the next move (selection) the other is going to make but according to the map, you make decisions and strategies. It is amazing.

    Love everything about this game. The game play is the best out there with single life. It should be implemented in all games moving forward as it creates more tension and you strategies are corporate more with your team.

    If one member of your team pics an operator, no body else can pick that one. THAT IS BRILLIANT as we don't end with up with 3 medics and 2 Snipers, like many other HERO games let you.

    The community is amazing as well and they play well and listen to you even if you do not know them.

    This isn't an easy pick up and play game though. It requires are learning curve and is worth taking time to learn and master.

    Maps are so amazing that I am still learning them after 4 years. Filled with details and hidden areas.

    This game really is a game of the decade in my opinion. If you want a good shooter with brains, dont look anywhere else. You are at the right place with Rainbow Six: Siege.    … Expand

    If there is a better 1st person shooter I havent played it. True next gen and more to come. Amazing sound design, destruction, teamwork, environments. Infinite possibilities every game, true multiplayer challenge. Are you man enough? Chat works great so you basically have episodic Dungeons & Dragons battles with the result up to you and fate.

    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.

The tides can turn fairly quickly if your aren't careful, sloppy run and gun tactics will leave you in the crosshairs, with accessible security cameras that can give you the drop on your opponents to breachable walls allowing you to pave your own path to victory you will have to stay on your toes.

    Siege has been the only great FPS on console for years now. It's consistently updated with great free content and has a massive skill ceiling that gives it an outrageous amount of replay value. You never stop learning and improving and I can't say the same for any other game I've played.

    People who dislike this game are either very bad at it, or don't understand how to play the game as a whole. Call Of Duty pains in comparison to the rushes and highs of this game. My favorite game on Xbox One, possibly my favorite game of all time. Keep in mind the lack of single player, but anyone who likes online games (even casual gamers) will love this game. Buy it. Now.

Net code has never been the strength of any Ubisoft game it seems and Siege is no exception. That said, I think folks are too quick to bash Ubisoft and give up on this game due to a few hiccups.

    IMHO Rainbow Six Siege is the best shooter this console generation. Heck, I'd say it's the best shooter we've seen in over a decade. It's a tactical shooter that actually rewards teamwork and focuses on objective play. This alone puts Siege in a very special spot, as most shooters reward lone wolf tactics and focusing on KDA. This leads to very selfish, toxic behavior. Siege, by design, curbs this A LOT.

    So what IS Siege and who is it for?

    In simple terms, Rainbow Six Siege takes the slower pace of classic Call Of Duty Search & Destroy or Counter-Strike and brings back what we've always loved about Rainbow Six before Vegas came around: a slower paced shooter where heightened awareness and team coordination is favored over just running in and having super fast reflexes. I like to call this the shooter for "grown folk" but, as the game gets more and more popular, the infamous squeakers are coming in to do what they do. 360 no-scope? Sure, why not. Want to spawn kill? Try it.. And fail more times than not.

    Siege is the ultimate shooter for folks looking for a real team experience. In every match I play, it's always obvious which teams are on comms and actually working together. The divide between teams with players whatever they want and those who actually try to synergize is MASSIVE. Again, it's rare to see online games that reward GOOD behavior so THANK YOU, Ubisoft!

    If you like stealth, checking corners, sweeping rooms, using your environment to your advantage, making holes in things (yes, destructible environments are HUGE here), and the intense feeling that you get when you know an enemy is lurking somewhere nearby.. BY GOD... Play Rainbow Six Siege - seriously!

    As I get older, I find I get bored of video games easily. The more I play a game, the less interesting it becomes. Siege somehow gets better and better the more I play it. That's refreshingly rare in a space that is filled with regurgitated, uninspired crap geared towards little kids and folks with ADHD.

    Siege is a shining example of how you build a game into a platform. My only complaint there is that I wish it was a budget title or free-to-play so more folks would jump in. Launching this at full price when it is almost 100% an online multiplayer game was a bit of a bad choice but the momentum is still growing so Ubisoft lucked out there. I will also say that, as one of the few games I've pre-ordered over the past few years, I have absolutely NO regrets. It's worth every penny!

    Back to the Siege platform, Ubisoft has made it so that everything that matters can be earned through in-game currency. For dedicated gamers, you can show off premium skins, victory poses, and other cosmetic goodies. I wholeheartedly recommend the Season Pass and this is probably one of the only times I would do so. I see it as a why to support a fantastic game and ensure they keep content coming for years to come.

    We are currently in Year Two: that's four seasons, 2 new operators, and 1 new map per season guaranteed. In between the season updates, there are patches that improve the UI, add new features, balance the characters/operators, and introduce new in-game store items. The flow of content has been super satisfying and let me tell you: I play this game A LOT (hundreds of hours logged so far) and even I haven't unlocked everything. I like that. There's always something to work towards.

    Everything about this game is satisfying to me: customizing my gear loadouts, changing my look, switching operators to compliment what my team has, having a huge gun fight in the final seconds of a round... It's all fantastic. Oh yeah, the operators - can't forget them! Siege takes class-based battle to a whole new level with unique named operators who each have their own backstory, gadgets, and special talents. This aspect brings a little MOBA flavor into the shooter genre while keeping the experience mostly grounded (the new elite uniforms get silly but I guess you need the twerking, stanky leg, and fireballs to attract a wider audience). The more you play, the more you get attached to select operators and establish your own gameplay style. There's really something for everyone here!

    If you've been on the fence about this game, consider this: you can get it for under $20 if you go physical. There's also no shooter like it as far as I'm concerned. If you've always wanted something different and you're tired of Call Of Duty wannabes, give Siege a real shot. It's a very special game indeed.    … Expand

But with 100 ping, the game makes you hate on a regular basis.

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is a tactical shooter, in which there are destructible, which also need to be use tactically. It's a good game lures - their capabilities. Here you can not just stupid to get in to the enemy through the door and break through the wall, ceiling, blow the door, and the opponent will be confused "where am I to watch?!". Outside you can climb down the wall on ropes, punching the window, hanging and upside down (which at first familiar, but you can get used to) - it is also necessary to use, as the enemy often does not expect. There are different ways to break through walls and other fortifications to strengthen the walls, set various traps. And operatives must have individual abilities and their weapons. All this makes the game insanely replayable, and just a Paradise for lovers to play it on tactics. We also have a drone (team attack), which can be used to mark opponents, and just to check if everything is "clean". In this game, don't just go ahead. Usually you can go to the desired object from about three sides, and even more. And if you know that if you go just like a sheep forward, you die, then you just need to go to the other side and to catch opponents off guard. And it seems so logical, but no, a stupid to go ahead without checking your drone is there ahead of the enemy. This game is about careful gameplay.

    You've planned everything, you're done, you know exactly what is going to kill the opponents, but here comes Ubisoft with their network code that wrote Indian the heel of the left foot. The problems can be different from the second podlaha before his sudden departure from the session. Ubisoft are really trying to fix things, and now it's playing without problems, but you still can kill enemy when you noticed him only a second while on his cell tupil you almost half a minute. Hate it. Due to these technical situations, and many others and I want the hell to remove this horrible game. But the gameplay makes you run, "the Siege" again and again. And when everything turns out as you planned, really enjoy it.

    The game has no story, stand-alone company, there is only multiplayer. To familiarize yourself with the mechanics is "Operation". And it would be better for the beginner to get them to watch the introductory videos, and then only to go into the game. "Siege" requires direct hands, the weapon happens with a character, you also need to know the map, and then you just have no escape routes or don't know how to get around the enemy. Of course, one must know and operatives for whom you play. All of its pluses and minuses. Operatives in the game is not enough, and there will be more. In the "Antiterror" you can train against bots. On the complexity of "Realism" bots are very good, it is generally one of the most intelligent bots to rebuild. take you to the hearing, bypass. This mode is useful for beginners, as there you will get acquainted with the operative and weapons. The gun shoots great, the sound is excellent. But some of the guns look much viagraxna (especially with ACOG). With automatic Ash or famas from Twich much better put headshots. But sometimes ubisoft and shotguns kill for a couple of meters (as it was when I added just Frost). Headshots are literally with one shot (as it should be), but in Siege it may not be skill, but simply luck. The enemy can shoot at you from a vending machine Bandit and one of the twenty bullets will hit you and you die. Hate it. Hitboxes in this game at all bothered. Different investigators different armored is a bit of a controversial decision.

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege despite all the technical flaws and the occasional controversial decisions by the dev team, this is a great tactical multiplayer shooter with insane replayability, and gameplay that gives you many opportunities. The game clearly goes for the emotions. It's just the orgasm at the tips of ecstasy!    … Expand

    Tom Clancy’s Rainbow 6 Siege is a first person tactical shooter game, created by Ubisoft, designed for a very specific type of player. It is full of intense moments and hard decisions to be made by the player in very little time. The player needs to be well concentrated and have a good reaction time as to win close up battles. The player must also have a lot of patience because the game is very much hit and miss with the pace of a match. Online games are 5 vs 5 matches in one of three game modes: Bomb, Hostage, or Secure Area. The teams are attackers’ vs defenders.
    Pros
    Rainbow 6 consists of 4 different game modes, this gives some variety for the player to avoid them becoming bored. Two of the game modes are strictly multiplayer, they are “Casual” and “Ranked” matches. Casual matches are just for fun and to have a good time and they are also useful for practicing the game and getting use to the controls. Ranked is a lot more intense which gives you a personal rank at the end of 10 matches, this rank is also affected after receiving your initial rank. Ranked matches are much more intense than Casual because people like to keep their personal rank as high as possible. At the end of each season, personal ranks are reset to nothing so everybody gets another chance to get a better score.
    Another game mode is called Terrorist Hunt, which can be played in single player, multiplayer, or just with your Squad (friends in custom team). Terrorist Hunt is a mode that is only played against AI and it has three difficulties: Normal, Hard, and Realistic. You can either attack or defend, and these settings can be changed so you get a specific map and game mode.
    The final game mode is called “Situations”, these are single player missions which are advised to be done when you start the game because it is a good way to earn some of the in-game currency, Renown. The situations are a good way to learn the game and get use to the controls before facing off with real people online. Situations a have a 3 star system on how you perform, each star unlocked for the first time rewards you with 200 Renown. You are able to go back and redo these missions if you miss any. After completing all 10 situations, you unlock an 11th mission that is multiplayer called “Article 5”.
    Rainbow 6 has a rage of 20 original Operators which are the characters you play as in game. If no operator is selected then you are put in as a recruit who has no attachments or gadget. This is so you are still able to play but also a punishment for not picking an operator. Among the 20 original operators, there are 13 additional operators that have been added to the game through DLC’s given at the end of each season. The DLC’s are all free but the new operators are always more expensive than the original unless you own the season pass, in which case they are free. The original operators all begin at 500 Renown, but as someone from the same group is bought, the others values increase. They increase to 1,000, then 1,500, and finally 2,000. All DLC operators cost 25,000 Renown. The game offers a small biography section for all of the characters revealing something about themselves.
    All Operators have their own unique and special gadget that puts them apart from all of the other operators. This show that Ubisoft have given the players a large variety to choose from and a lot of resources to be more tactical.
    The game is also extremely realistic as one shot to the head kills you. You are able to harm and kill your teammates as well as the enemy. This brings a whole new tactical element to the game.

    Cons
    The game contains a lot of content and this opens it up to quite a few bugs, and these do happen.
    Quite often in multiplayer while spectating another player, the will be holding their gadget out or the will not be holding anything from your perspective although to them everything is fine. Quite often, players lag and this causes them to bounce back to the point they started at.
    The game comes with a variety of maps but some leave you out in the open if you are an attacker when you first spawn in, this allows the defenders to break down doors and windows to kill you at the beginning of the round.
    Quite often when new operators are added, they are deemed “too good” and they then get what is called a nerf to make the game fair on either team. This is often done too much and the operator becomes too bad to be played by most people.
    Conclusion
    In conclusion the game is very good and definitely worth playing because this game is a first person shooter like no other. It is available on three different platforms, Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. Although it has some bugs, Ubisoft are constantly working to patch them in every update. This game is definitely worth it for what it costs which is around £20.    … Expand

I know that people complain about a "lack of content" because of the lack of a story mode. The game has no need for a single player campaign. This is due to the quality of the multiplayer. The sheer depth of the multiplayer mode is enough to keep a player occupied for hours. People also may complain about micro-transactions. It is safe to say that these micro-transactions don't give players an advantage like other games might. The only things micro-transactions give you are new operators, weapon skins, and character skins. These things can be unlocked with in-game currency, which you earn by playing the game. And could you really be mad at the developers for including micro-transactions? They are constantly updating and patching the game. Not to mention, they add new dlc maps and operators multiple times a year, which makes the game bigger and better. Personally, I love this game for the strategic depth that it gives players, and how brutal it can be to anyone who isn't expecting it.

    Rainbow Six Siege is for the gamer that enjoys a challenging but rewarding game because every time you get a kill you feel rewarded and you feel this way because you have to put effort into that kill. You can’t just walk into the building without taking the time to find the people and kill them. While doing so quietly because sound is a big part of the game sound is really important forRainbow Six Siege is for the gamer that enjoys a challenging but rewarding game because every time you get a kill you feel rewarded and you feel this way because you have to put effort into that kill. You can’t just walk into the building without taking the time to find the people and kill them. While doing so quietly because sound is a big part of the game sound is really important for when someone one is near you whether they be on the other side of the wall or behind you sound will be a big factor in your gameplay. So in conclusion, I recommend this game because you will either feel good when finished playing or feel disappointed depending on the effort put into your gameplay

    What's involved in the game
    The strategy that must be put into eliminating the opposite team
    You have to manage the recoil of your weapon
    You have to have good aim to kill the other person before he kills you
    You have to find out where the enemy team is located by using a drone or cameras depending on whether your attacking or defending
    You will also be equipped with a variety of gadgets
    depending on which character you are will depend on what gadgets you will use. An example of the gadgets would be stuff like a nitro cell, grenade, riot shield, bear trap, gu mines, claymores and many more

    This FPS will keep you on the edge of your seat for hyper competitive play and will never get old. I have been playing this game since it’s release many years ago along with a core group of friends. While we may cycle through new hot titles, rainbow six siege remains the one game we always fall back on no matter what.

    Yes I too was a bit disappointed the 3rd person cover system is gone but after playing it for a while you know what? I don't notice it at all anymore. Gone as well is the split screen co-op terrorist hunt mode which I think was a mostake as well, that being said let's move on to the good stuff.
    This game is a totally new and fresh take on FPS that forces you to pace yourself, communicate and seriously work together as part of a squd if you want to win. If you want to run and gun and be a lone wolf then save yor money, it doesn't work in this game. You like a band of the hand 5 fingers working together to accomplish a task and they did a great job.
    The other thing they did a great job with is the destructible environments!! You are not safe nearly anywhere in the game. floors, walls,ceilings, boxes, banisters nearly anything can be shot through and almost completely destroyed its amazing! It's kinda crazy when the ceiling above you explodes in a cloud of smoke and debris and a dude drops through and starts lighting you up!
    There is also an excellent character variety with diverse skill sets and weapon types to suite your play style or goal on a particular level. Some are far more offensive, others are defense heavy and some are a decent mix of both. There is also a decent weapon selection and good mods and load outs for each gun which made me happy.
    This game is also unforgiving, it has a much greater sense of realism than game like COD or battlefield and on the harder difficulties it is nearly impossible to survive without excellent teamwork and communication so be warned! I think people need to be open minded and spend some time with the game rather than simply complain that it isn't just like the old rainbow games, I mean isn't that the point?? As gamers don't we want something frsh and new? I know I do and I am very happy overall with what they have done!    … Expand

If you are looking for COD or any other twitch-type shooter then this is not your kinda game. The fully destructible environments are amazing so hats off to Ubisoft for the complex programming required. 5v5 Player teams can destroy pretty much all walls, door, ceilings and floors needed to breach a room. This games takes group-planning and communication from your team members. It will take many hours to learn the maps, operators' skillset and loadouts for each. I've played many hours of this already (XBOX One, Lvl 15) and although the initial server connection always fails... any second attempt always works–not sure what the issue is. Fortunately I have a 10-50ms ping to the East coast azure servers, and once connected makes for smooth online gameplay. Considering this runs mostly online, it is amazing when everyone has good connections and mics. You will get the occasional ragers, haters, cursers and kiddies/squeekers, but they can be marked for kicking (by team vote) if need be. This is a true next-gen gaming product... if you have good internet (bandwidth, and ping speed to MS data center servers) then I highly recommend this product. PS4 and PC players have voiced numerous online issues which may be related to non-dedicated servers... so their mileage seems to vary which is too bad. Hopefully Ubisoft will host DediServs for all platforms soon. They will only hurt their reputation by hosting on sub-standard servers. Some people have complained about micro-transactions but you don't need to make those if you don't want to–they just accelerate the leveling-up process for those desperate to move up quicker at the cost of real money.

One problem is the final Mission (Article 5) requires real people to play with. If you don't have friends to play with, it can take a very long time to find a match. The multiplayer is always fun but playing casual can be difficult. People can kill teammates with you little to no repercussions in casual which is extremely frustrating. But in ranked everything is better. Longer rounds, more consequences for team killing and it is more competitive. Terrorist Hunt is great fun with friends and is a fun side mode. But one thing that impresses me about Siege is how they handle DLC. The maps are all free but the operators you can pay for without season pass or micro transactions. It will take a while but it can be done. This is one of the only games I will buy a season pass for, being $20 cheaper the BO3's Season Pass. Also the way the operators and weapons are distributed are great because they are not given to you all at once. I fully recommend this game for any console or PC. Other then some small nitpicks, the game is almost flawless. I love this game and I have been playing for months.

The game is very tactical and you will fail a lot in order to start succeeding. Each operator has their own special ability which serves a purpose in supporting themselves or their teammates. The gunplay is realistic and may take time to adjust to, but once you get the hang of it and lose your CoD-like tendencies then you get the most fun out of the game. Each round can take place defending a different random room on the map, and there are so many operators that you'll rarely face similar situations. You can rappel up a building, destroy the floors and walls, and use a wide range strategies for your advantage.

    Rainbow Six Siege is the game I have played the most on my XBOX ONE. There's many operators and skins to unlock. It has great graphics, good tactics, and is fun with an XBOX party with friends. Sometimes, though, you're playing online, and you have to compete against level 150's, while you're still level 60, which is, indeed, impossible to win.

The community is alive and kicking and the gameplay is stellar, tactical, heart pounding, and dynamic. My first worry was a lack of content being only multiplayer. The fact I got both Vegas and Vegas 2 with my copy made the deal much more palatable. However I was still worried.

    After a few matches and a great community and even fun PUGs, I have fallen in love the game. No match for me has played the same. The level of destruction is fantastic, but thought out too to allow for organized Chaos, a bit of emergent gameplay, without feeling cheap or overly destructive ala Bad Company 2. Another major point for me is the volumetric smoke and stellar particle effects which really lend to the confusion of battle during matches.

    Fantastic purchase for me. Not sure if worth 60$ is worth it for everyone, but the level of service Ubisoft is giving the game is great and they listen to the community. This game will have legs that will carry it a long way.    … Expand

The subtitle "Siege" is revealing since this game is all about raiding a building in order to save a hostage or disarm a bomb. The 5 player vs. 5 player modes consist of 5 rounds each with teams alternating between defending and attacking the bomb/hostage. Before each round, the defenders barricade the windows, walls, floors and ceilings, while the attackers recon the area with mini-drones. The team who wins three out of five are the victors. There are no respawns, so rounds are brief and the combat is normally in close-quarters.

    But if you wish to practice before taking on real life opponents, you can play Terrorist Hunt which can be played solo or cooperatively with three others. In it, you must take down a number of A.I. controlled soldiers and save a hostage or disarm a bomb. Of course with "Siege" being a Tom Clancy game, there are plenty of tactics and cool gadgets that can be used. The game features five reality-based counter terrorist units; each having four "operators" (special classes) which must be unlocked with points you earn as you level up. In "Situations", a single player tutorial mode, you can "preview" the operator's special abilities while taking on the enemy A.I. Every firearm can be customized, but not extensively like in "Call of Duty". Unfortunately, you cannot customize your soldier in any way.

    Overall, "Rainbow Six: Siege" is a fun tactical shooter, but like "Star Wars: Battlefront", it does not include a campaign and is pretty light on content. With only three competitive modes, 11 maps and Terrorist Hunt, it can get repetitive. Thankfully, Ubi Soft will constantly update it with free maps and if you own the XBOX One version, you get the two "Vegas" games for free. While "Siege" isn't as good as either "Vegas" game, or even the classic XBOX game "Rainbow Six 3", it does provide plenty of tense matches. The destructible barricades, walls, floors and ceilings can turn the tide of many battles and they help distinguish "Siege" from previous games in the franchise. Graphically, there is much to be desired. But while the game may not be much of a visual stunner, the unique gameplay makes up for it. Long time fans of Tom Clancy video games should enjoy it.    … Expand

This game manages to be very fast paced and exciting while making you step back, plan your attack and coordinate with other players on the spot and requires more strategic thinking than fast reflexes. making this just as much of a game of getting the upper hand on your opponent by out smarting them and overwhelming them. Im not going to go into the game mechanics because there is a lot to talk about, but basically you are trying to complete the objective or take out the other team if your attacking, or your defending and keeping the other team from completing there task. the amount of options and ways you can go about beating the other team is unlike any other game I've played and far deeper as well. really great game. would be nice if it had more content because I don't feel that this game should be priced at 80$, 60$ sounds more reasonable.… Expand

    To start things off, major props to Rainbow Six at Ubisoft because they took a huge risk at creating a game with no respawn in a generation that drools over Call of Duty and Battlefield action shooters, and they did a pretty good job with it.

    The gameplay is slower with more close quarter shoot outs than your average shooter. The maps are set to urban houses, airplanes, office buildings, and shooting range training buildings. There is sprint, but your character's speed is based on the type of equipment you're carrying.

    Terrorist Hunt is more diverse now, with hostage rescue, hostage protection, bomb defuse, and classic terrorist hunt. You can create a squad, and join terrorist hunt. The game will ask you the type of difficulty that you would like to play on, but the game modes are set to random along with the maps. You have a team of 5 players and if one gets downed, you can revive them once.

    Multiplayer is the same concept, with casual and ranked game play. Its 5 v 5 with no respawn, utilizing attacking and defending characters, each with their own skill set and equipment.

    The reason I did not give this a perfect score is because of some very minor things.
    First off, the characters only have 2 to 3 guns total to choose from and two choices of equipment; sometimes breaching charges or flash grenades, shields or barbed wire.

    Second off, going off of Rainbow Six Vegas which had AMAZING customization, this has none. R6Vegas you could pick your armor, your armor color, helmet, vest, kneepads, elbow pads. And that was for Xbox 360 and Ps3. This is a next-gen game with zero customization.

    Third, the character Thatcher is pictured with a shotgun, and a shotgun is not a even weapon choice that he can even have. [I said these were minor imperfections, remember.]

    Fourth, the online and servers right now are throwing out error codes left and right. When you first sign on, it says error code / servers unreachable. If you hit a button to continue, you're online anyways. I only know this because it did the same thing in beta so I figured it would be the same way in the game, and it was.

    Last but not least, there's no campaign. Rainbow Six has always been huge with story modes and the tactical movement of controlling Team Rainbow. Although this is a great game, I'm not too fond of the ideas that games are now thinking its okay to only release half of a game, regardless of how much you focus on multiplayer.

    Overall, I've been playing this game for 6 hours straight since the game released and I'm itching to continue playing tomorrow. I would recommend it. Its one of the few, if not the only, tactical shooter that's out that actually requires team work to get the job done. I know Rainbow Six Siege will only get better from here on out. They've been listening to the community since the closed Alpha and Beta and I believe they know what the players want.    … Expand

    A breath of fresh air in the FPS genre.

    Rainbow Six Siege in every right is a fantastic game, and its highly dynamic destruction and physics systems are an impressive technological feat to behold, and they make each match completely different and much more intense. The multiplayer is well done, making people work together and using a robust VOIP system, and the fact that there are    A breath of fresh air in the FPS genre.

    Rainbow Six Siege in every right is a fantastic game, and its highly dynamic destruction and physics systems are an impressive technological feat to behold, and they make each match completely different and much more intense. The multiplayer is well done, making people work together and using a robust VOIP system, and the fact that there are characters and classes is a really nice touch, as they can come together to make fantastic team compositions that can be used in Casual games and fits snugly into the eSports crowd.

    So why am I giving it an 8 and not a perfect 10? Ubisoft. And their servers.

    For a £40/$60 game, you expect a smooth, quality experience in a game so reliant on multiplayer, wouldn't you? Unfortunately, matchmaking is non-existent - you will face people with hundreds of hours from the get-go, flashing their fancy Ranked badges and 100+ ranks. Terrorist Hunt (PvE basically) is hosted by one member of the party, for some reason Ubisoft couldn't be arsed making servers for it. This means that any game can be disbanded when the host leaves, the experience can be sub-optimal if the host has bad connection or lives far away from you.

    And Ubisoft just couldn't live without cramming uPlay down our throats. Even buying the game on Steam makes you install uPlay and play it on there, because Ubisoft will have a big tantrum if Steam gets all the attention and praise. It doesn't negatively affect the game as such, but it sort of lingers and breathes over your shoulder in an annoying way - they even entice you with Renown (currency) boosts and pretty gun skins in their Shift + F2 overlay (wouldn't want to copy Steam at all, would we?).

    Thankfully there's no boosts that players can get by paying, the most you get is gun modifications like sights, barrel extensions, lasers, (which are bought by easily attainable currency) and a lot of skins. HOWEVER there are microtransactions for these skins, on top of DLC, on top of the base game's price. Classic money swipe from Ubisoft.

    Overall I feel it's an incredibly well-made and intense game that separates itself from the endless crowd of generic shooters, but is let down by Ubisoft's conniving ways with taking people's money and hastily slapping together online services.    … Expand

I bought 4 new operators last night and each time you buy a new op you watch a short intro video. Each time it got to that stage my game crashed and I had to reboot. It takes an awful long time to log into the servers as it is without having to do it 4 times before launching a new game. It's a little confusing setting custom games with a full 10 people as we had lots of difficulty trying to join up when the host can only invite 5 people to his fireteam, took us 10 minutes just to find a work-around to this problem to get 2 full teams in. On the plus side it's a very refreshing game that's very objective driven and not just COD TDM which has been stale for years. A campaign would be nice however their are training missions available with short cut scenes but nothing even close to a proper campaign. With Titanfall, Siege, Battlefront etc all doing this we're paying more for much less which I do not approve of however the quality of the multiplayer justifies the score.… Expand

    Putting the R6 purism aside, Siege is still a good game in it's own merit. It tries to be the sweet spot of the entire series. Combining the modern style of shooters (COD, BF3 etc) with the slow and tactical pace, the series was known for.

    This is a multiplayer only game, and frankly i don't mind it. You engage in 5 v 5 missions. Objectives are varied and preserved from the older games: Hostage Rescue, Bomb Defuse.

    You play as a 5 man-team. If you are assaulting you rescue the hostages or defuse bombs . The other 5 defends the objectives while setting up traps or barricades. I like defending objectives as this is something new.

    There's allot of emphasis on breaching in Siege. You can repel in any formation around buildings and breach through windows and walls to surprise your foes. Not everything however is destructible. In fact, most of the interior and exteriors are static.

    If you're into the series for a while, Terrorist Hunt is still as addicting as ever. You do the same objectives as the main online mode, but you fight enemy AIs alongside your team.

    Like most modern shooters there's it's own class character system called "Operators". You select a variety of characters with special abilities and weapons. Ubisoft are kind enough for us to provide these features without micro-transactions and DLCs.. if we're willing to play the game long enough.

    This kind of shooter requires allot of communication. So it's good to play with your friends. If you don't have a choice the game is still playable but expect allot of f***-ups along the way. If you're feeling trigger-itchy Terrorist Hunt on normal difficulty can be a nice escape, as the bots are sometimes easy to kill.

    Graphics wise, this game isn't that beautiful. Destructible environments and details are nice, but nothing "Next-Gen-impressive". Terrorist Hunt runs in 30 frames per second on Xbox one, while the regular online runs in 60.

    This game however feels like an unfinished product (which unfortunately is becoming the norm these days). It has server problems and glitches. Though I'm sure Ubisoft will address these, paying a full price for a game that doesn't work well is unacceptable.

    + Fun Online
    + Maintains Tactical feeling
    + Great to play with friends
    + Defending objectives are new and refreshing.

I believe this is due to the excellent operator system implemented and the incredibly fun destruction mechanic. In short, both are fantastic in Siege and really help the game not fall into the pit of monotony.

    The return of Terrorist Hunt I find to be slightly lacking, but this is up to your own personal decision. I find myself wondering why I am killing AI bots on the same maps doing bland mission objectives when I could be doing very similar things in Rainbow Six Siege's 3 awesome online multiplayer modes. The situations are very lacking, throwing you in as one of Siege's many operators to complete a single objective, with a few bonus challenges as attempts at side objectives. A campaign replacement this is not, though it does at least serve up some bonus content.

    At the end of the day, buy Rainbow Six Siege for its awesome multiplayer modes and kill some terrorists in the terrorist hunt mode if that is what you enjoy. The multiplayer is excellent and on its own worthy of at least a 7/10, however with the free dlc updates, terrorist hunt and an awesome soundtrack, I believe the game is worthy of an 8/10.

    Rainbow Six Siege is a good game, but has many flaws. It is very buggy and because of Operation Health it took 6 months before the next DLC came out when they said 3. I love this game but be ready for many bugs and glitches.

    Positives- Game gives a good blood rush to the player where fighting’s isn’t intense and almost anything can kill you. Community manager is very active when interacting with the community. There is a large variety of guns and operators where you can choose from. The games destruction changed the FPS game making it one of the best tactical shooter shooters ever.

    Negatives- Game is riddled with glitches and bugs and it seems like every season some new kind of glitch is out. Major updates seem to take forever which is every three months and it seem s that’s every new DLC operator that comes out are always over-powered which Ubisoft ends up nerfing a week later. Servers are horrible. I always seem to disconnect from it every game at least once. Hit reg is horrible it seems that sometimes you’ll put 20 bullets in someone and they still won’t die.

    In the end I recommend this game to anyone who isn’t a fan of FPS games.    … Expand

    I do enjoy this game but only with friends, I’m really not the biggest fan of the tactical FPS genre so I only can play a few games at a time. I think that if your into this kind of stuff then you’ll love this, I’m not but I’ll still give it an 8 because it’s a well designed game.

    My only complaints: The range on Clash’s CCE shield is ridiculous, I was one time on a climbing frame on house and clash was somehow reaching me from inside of the house.
    Also, it would be better if Ubisoft listened to the community more when it comes to the addition and removal of features, they shouldn’t just listen to salty pro-league players

    We all know Ubisoft is FAR from a "good" gaming company. They compare only to EA in their attempts to nickle and dime gamers. To an extent I tolerate it- if the game surrounding the DLC/microtransaction money machine is great. This is not the case.

They compare only to EA in their attempts to nickle and dime gamers. To an extent I tolerate it- if the game surrounding the DLC/microtransaction money machine is great. This is not the case.

    I understand how the industry works- I get that profits are needed in order to maintain a game company, however many companies are hugely profitable and do not even offer microtransactions and small paid DLC. Take CD Projekt Red- the give 16 free DLCs with the Witcher 3. In addition the base game is so huge that you can spend 100s of hours playing it. In other words, you get a lot of bang for your 60 bucks. And if you choose to purchase the paid DLC option- it offers you another 40 hours of additional content, which is a fair deal. $15 bucks lands you a lot of entertainment- i like that. $15 buck in Siege gets you 2 weapon skins and 1 new playable character. Awesome...

    Lets look at siege. Fun game yes- I will surrender that. It is exciting, thrilling, and offers a tactical layer to shooting that few games offer. But with pretty much NO single player content (minus an extended tutorial) and only really 1 game mode its more on tune with a 20 dollar DLC for COD rather than a stand alone AAA title. You can play every game mode and map in a day or so. So while the base content is fun- there is very little in the way of variety or scope.

    In addition they try to pry dollars out of you. Want a new operator? Pay us more... Want gun skins? Pay us more... Want new gun attachments? Pay us more... Sure you can grind for these things- but it is obviously set up to fuel microtransactions. Brand new players will spend a butt load and have a gear advantage over those playing for weeks and grinding for gear. That is not fair- the "pay to win" feature is clear here.

    Few things are needed to operate a smooth FPS multiplayer shooter. Good mechanics are key, a good leveling system is important, balanced maps that cater to multiple gameplay styles is crucial, and of course balancing between weapons/play styles. Siege has many of these things- some more than others. But what it lacks is the single most important aspect of an FPS online game- good servers. The game freezes and crashes all the time, almost EVERY SINGLE MATCH this happens to some degree. If you play using the ranked play feature (with other experienced players) then you cannot quit a match. If you do you are banned for 24 hours. So when your game freezes and no one can move or shoot then you have to sit through 7 5 minute rounds never once being able to move. If you get board and do not want to spend 35 minutes starring at the screen then you can quit and not player for 24 more hours. The "no quit" rule to ranked play is not a bad idea though- however that rule mixed with **** servers creates a lot of frustration. Inexcusable.

    Game like COD, Destiny, Battlefield, Battlefront, Evolve, and other MMOs have MUCH more strain on their servers and issues like the ones in siege are a rarity. It is clear Ubisoft cut corners in the server department and it cost the game dearly.    … Expand

    I'm having the same issue as always where I really want to give this game an 8 or 9 because I am a huge fan of the Rainbow Six series, but this game just reeks of Ubisoft, and they've done things that warrant a 7/10.

    My biggest issue (which might be fixed) is the servers, during the Beta and even the full game, the servers are as stable as a house of toothpicks, I've noticed that Ubisoft could never handle multiplayer games without them killing themselves; nevertheless, I am 'almost' certain that this issue will be rectified.
    My other primary complaint is how there's less customization and freedom, I'm noticing a very bullsh*t theme with all the new releases, why is it that all the older games in the franchise had more player freedom? they did this in Battlefront 3, Fallout 4, and Black Ops 3. what the hell is going on?
    20 operatives with sparse customization? no thanks.

    I also have some small complaints. on the backs of the Spetsnaz members, in Russian it reads FSB.
    FSB is an entirely different thing, that's like being a Navy seal, but having SWAT on your back.
    also it just bothers me to see 5 assorted CTUs shooting at other CTUs, why? you couldn't make terrorist skins?
    I do like how each charachter has a unique name that means something in their colloquial language.
    Kapkan means trap, and he sets down tripwires. and Tachanka roughly means cart with gun, or gun cart. the word came from the Russian civil war, when calvary men would put a maxim heavy machine gun on a cart and attach it to a horse. and Glaz, which means eye (because he's a sniper, get it? kek). then you have Montagne, which means Mountain. I don't speak German so I couldn't tell you about them, but I am almost certain they mean something too, it's just the little things that make it so much better.
    I think I've been ripping on the game too much, but rest assured, I absolutley love this game, it's brilliant, and as a reviewer below me pointed out, it IS a nice change to see a game that isn't mindless bullet parties like COD or BF, I just hope that COD players stay the hell away from this game. I have lots of fun playing this game and every kill feels earned, not cheap. and every time you wipe a squad, you feel like a bonafide badass. the game has that whole Battlefield moment sudden rush, if you don't know what that is, it's just when you get one of those moments that make the game a whole lot more exciting, almost cinematic at times.

    I am actually done with reviewing the game itself, but I have one last grievance.
    So I've heard people compare this to CS:GO, and that's wrong, but not in the way you think, this game is actually more intense and demanding then CS:GO, this game requires actual roles and objective managment, so it requires a competent intelligent team, one f*ck up, and you're dead, this game requires full attention and skill. but that's just the thing, on Xbone, it's cancer central, everyone who I end up in a lobby with is a moron or doesn't speak english, get it on PC.
    also I get 30fps on terrorist assault, okay I'm done.    … Expand

There is nothing better than playing this game with three of your friends who have the patience and intelligence to play this game the correct way. With good strategy and team work this game performs masterfully unlike any other FPS. Playing both as attackers and defenders takes team strategy in both preparation of the round and execution of the round, with the occasional individual heroics. The game rewards sticking together and using your special abilities of your character. The game provides for many unique routes of attacking or defending each round which supplies unique game play for a rather repetitive game. Choosing characters in the beginning of each round is crucial because each character has individual guns and abilities that can alter which methods of attacking or defending that you should chose.

    Beware though, playing this game yourself with randoms can be a nightmare. With no communication and no strategy you are almost doomed to lose every round. Many players become frustrated and lose their patience. This when they start to play, as I call it, "Call of Duty style" where they just run towards the enemy head on, almost always resulting in death. I have never found playing this game by myself fun, especially on defense with people ripping your barricades or blocking your point of vision.

    The intensity of this game is refreshing but it is ultimately limited by whether your friends are playing or not. I can't let this aspect of the game hurt the review score too badly because that is the downside of a tactical game. And everyone who plays Rainbow Six Siege is signing up for a tactical experience.    … Expand

With that said I am glad they are concentrating on multiplayer and adding stuff to it over time. However, from the launch there needed to be more to multiplayer, more customization, more maps, more depth to the overall gameplay, more uniqueness to maps, I think they hit something really cool that hasn't been done yet in the shooter world but they need more work.The multiplayer is fun but it needs to have some options, having more game modes with and maybe things like having game modes more than 5 vs 5. I will say this I am glad they made it virtually impossible to run and gun. The game is truly a tactical shooter and the general census from talking with players online is that YOU NEED A MIC TO PLAY WELL. With more customization in players hands and some added depth and uniqueness to multiplayer this will definitely be a multiplayer game people will never get bored playing. In terms of the realism it is great, from the weapon sway when walking, to the just really great graphics and feel to the game, I look forward to what Tom Clancy has for the future.… Expand

    Okay so with the time of me writing this, this game has been active for 5 years now and i think it’s been a good amount of time that I think I can give my opinion on it with good amount of experience i have playing this game. For starters, I absolutely love the whole 5v5 search and destroy type feeling with one life per round. I also like how the operators work in this game. You obviouslyOkay so with the time of me writing this, this game has been active for 5 years now and i think it’s been a good amount of time that I think I can give my opinion on it with good amount of experience i have playing this game. For starters, I absolutely love the whole 5v5 search and destroy type feeling with one life per round. I also like how the operators work in this game. You obviously have stronger operators and weaker operators but it’s still a good system. Another reason why is due to the fact that not all operator shave the same equipment. So that means you have to either coordinate with your team and bring the correct operators that bring that piece of equipment or attack from a whole different area. I also love the destruction that the maps have in each of them. You have obviously soft walls like wood and all you can shoot through but you also have walls you can’t breach or shoot though to which I like. The last thing that I really love is the learning curve this game has. For example, when you first play the game, you will find that you will die to some complete random hole in the wall or some weird angle someone to which is frustrating when you first die to it but then, you learn it and learn how to either counter it or prevent it from happening to which I LOVE mostly about this game. Another thing i like too is the rank system. Now currently, there is a issue that they have in rank and it’s where you would have to pick between 3 maps to ban. Now if both teams ban the same map, then the game will “randomly” select one of the 2 remaining maps left. Now even though that’s great and all, currently there is a issue where it ONLY picks the map on the left to which sucks bit they are working in a fix for that so it’ll be foxed soon i hope. Now another BIG issue that i have on console in general is how DDOSing is a BIG issue right now especially in rank. It has gotten to a point now where almost every rank match i play, I get DDOSed and can’t even get back in causing me to get punished for “leaving the match and not returning.” How ever, it is not mainly Ubisoft’s fault and it is mainly Microsoft’s and Sony’s fault but not completely. Also, a small issue i have with rank is smurf accounts. The reason why i hate it is because it’s the fact that when i lose to some smurfs on the enemy team, I don’t know if I’m just a bad player or maybe i was playing against some Pro League type players to which sucks to go against that because I’m NO WHERE as good as a pro league player for Rainbow Six siege. However, it’s not that big of a issue but it kinda kills me by giving me a false mindset if i’m actually good of I just suck. But other than that, Rainbow Sox siege is a really great game and I honestly still enjoy playing it from time to time with it’s limited game modes to achieving a high rank or just going into a casual match having fun with my friends.… Expand

    Rainbow Six Siege is a fantastic game at its core. The controls are tight, the action is a perfect mix of exciting and thoughtful, and there’s lots of interesting new ideas that should be praised. But the lack of content and shameless business practices hold it back from greatness.
