Gameplay is fun and a slower than in CoD or BF, but that doesn't man it's bad or boring. Game can give a nice adrenaline rush, when breaching the wall or defusing the bomb in last few second. But... it's Ubisoft. There's a lot of bugs in the game, some are just funny (someones legs sticking through the wall, so you can kill him by shooting them), some are kind of annoying (playing character with a shield, while shield textures are not working so you can't see anything, because shield is a black shadowy thing), and some are game-breaking: matchmaking is terrible, there are terrible servers issues (you can play, but your friend can't even connect to the servers, for, like 1 hour straight), your squad is randomly disconnected, people get random disconnections (I don't remember when there was list time that I played 5 vs 5, it's 5 vs 4 or 5 vs 3 almost all the time, which in game like this makes a big difference), the rank system is useless too. So, making a long story short: Buy it only if you are patience person. If not, wait few months, hoping that Ubisoft will fix those issues... which I doubt.… Expand

It takes time to hone your skills and it takes a great deal of communication to play this game effectively. That being said, this is easily THE MOST toxic game/ gaming community I have ever played with. You wanna just sit down and play a casual game after work to unwind? This isn't the game for you! You will get killed by your teammates in almost every casual match you play. There is a good 60% chance that you will get voted out of the game by your team, and a 100% guarantee you'll get voted out if you can't clutch a match even after you entire squad gets slain. But thankfully, there are 2 other playlists for you to enjoy. Unranked: a great playlist for not so casual gamers that push the bounds of ranked gameplay with no active rank tracker. The percentages that you will get team killed/ voted out aren't as high as casual, I'd say those odds are closer to 30%-50%. Ranked: extremely competitive, but definitely the redeeming quality in this game... (is what I would have said if I wrote this review a year ago.) How ranked is set up these days is a joke. You'll again get team killed in nearly every single game you play, on top of not even getting fairly placed into teams to begin with. Oh damn you're a gold rank, thats great were gonna go ahead and match you with some platinums, no big deal. Oh damn your team got utterly crushed by a team that WAY outranks you, that's fine, you deserve to be a lower rank player anyways. You are ranked based off of how your team plays matches, not how you play as an individual. Moving on, the caliber system in this game is an absolute joke. Caveira’s 9mm pistol [67 damage] does more damage than most rifles in the game. In fact her pistol the Lusion (Beretta M9) is the exact same pistol her counterpart (Capitao) [35 damage] has, it just has a different suppressor, and yet some how it does almost twice the damage his does, I mean in what world does that make any sense? In fact Capitao has a Para-308 automatic rifle in his load-out, his .308 caliber rifle does 20 point LESS damage than her 9mm suppressed pistol, WTF is that??? iTs bEcAuSe ShE HaS To Be ComPeTItiVe. If you're not big on gun calibers, just do a quick google search on the difference in the size of those rounds, 9mm Vs. .308, it's honestly laughable. If you're trying to be a hyper realistic anti-terrorist-unit game that relies heavily on gun play, then you should at least try to understand the mechanics and calibers of firearms. A 9mm that does more damage than a .308 is quite hilarious, but when you get killed after dumping 5-6 rounds in her chest and she one shot drops you, that ain’t fun it’s just ridiculous and makes you want to quit. Recoil patterns in this game are laughable. Ela’s Rifle has THE WORST recoil in the game, but it’s the lowest caliber gun in the game, 9mm (while the weapons that are 7.62x39 [AKs] and up have hardly any recoil?), please explain that to anyone who has actually handled a rifle in their life. There are lots of issues with this game that seem trivial but are honestly just game breaking and make those encounters absolutely 1 sided. More so, this game relies HEAVILY on you purchasing cosmetics, which is **** because it lowers the standard of this game to that of Call of Duty/ Fortnite. It’s no fun showing off what you earned when the kid next door takes his moms credit card and buys the skin you worked your ass off for. It would be nice if someone with actual firearm experience made the weapon systems and platforms, this game tried, but ultimately failed because they were too concerned about operators being "viable and fair", (9mm does more damage than an AK, yeah right). Aside from those MAJOR flaws, this game is hella fun if you've got friends to play with, as they probably won't just team kill you/ vote you out. If you do buy this game, you better have the patience of the Dali Lama other wise you're gonna have a really bad time.… Expand

It had an immense amount of variety and customization available to the player.

    With that being said Siege is an ok game but it feels like an ambitious yet hollow game. Destructible environments are great but Siege is a been there, done that experience with pretty destruction. The graphics are muddled and flat. There is no real customization for your operators other than the choice of 2 or 3 primary weapons with a limited variety of scopes, etc. This game lacks clan support, deep customization or anything to really want you to invest in the character. Yes they created bios and a back story for each operator but it feels like a waste.

    In terrorist hunt you have no control over what game types you play, meaning if you like the standard terrorist hunt you are out of luck because everything runs off their servers and is random so you'll have to sit through bomb difusal multiple times to get to a better mode. I will give them kudos for great terrorist AI and well created and thought through level designs but honestly that's about all I can give them a thumbs up for.

    On top of that there are limited maps, operators, no single player experience which is where R6 really shines.

    Then the kicker is that they want you to buy a $30 season pass that includes nothing more than weapon skins and xp boosters and access new new operators one week early... wow......all for $30!! They have already stated that maps will be free and new operators can be unlocked with in game currency so unless you really have to have that pink panda skin for your gun and are in a hurry to get it don't bother with the season pass.

    Unless they reboot R6 and bring back a great, engaging campaign that can be played co-op this is my last R6.    … Expand

    I only purchased Rainbow Six Siege because of a holiday sale. I wasn’t impressed by the beta, and I’m not impressed a year later. R6S is devoid of content. The multiplayer and co-op modes are redundant and constrained. R6S has plenty of shortcomings, and certain problems really standout. R6S is so underwhelming, I struggle to write a review about it.

The multiplayer and co-op modes are redundant and constrained. R6S has plenty of shortcomings, and certain problems really standout. R6S is so underwhelming, I struggle to write a review about it.

    The graphics suck. R6S doesn’t look or perform well on consoles. It’s passable as a 360 game, but there’s nothing nextgen here. Textures are muddled and distant enemies are nearly impossible to spot. Screen tearing abounds. Frames are capped at 30fps on co-op although there isn’t much going on. Battlefield 1 maintains a solid 45fps on chaotic 64 player servers, and it always looks crisp and bright. R6S just reeks of bad optimization. Considering all the nooks and crannies where enemies can hide, high visual fidelity is a premium feature. Otherwise, players will just walk right by enemies (which happens) or shoot at inanimate objects (which also happens). Multiplayer runs at 60fps, but that doesn’t offset the terrible graphics. Ubisoft’s The Division looks superior in nearly every regard, so I don’t understand why its “competitive” multiplayer is worse off.

    The “unique” operators are gimmicky and don’t spice things up. Their special abilities aren’t nearly as important as their primary weapons and lethals. Matches inevitably devolve into camp fests where a few players creep around hoping to surprise corner campers. The intel gathering minigame at the start of matches is laughably underdeveloped and boring. Character customization is superficial. Looking back at some of Ubisoft’s previous titles, I’m surprised by R6S shallowness.

    Mechanics are awful too. Movement is rigid—like wading thru a swamp. Gun recoil is practically unmanageable with controllers. Environmental interactions don’t always succeed. Shields and other deployable assets will fail because of hidden obstacles.

    The dearth of game modes is inexcusable for a full-priced title. I don’t blame Ubisoft for excluding traditional TDM. However, R6S lacks a campaign, so offering only 3 modes is exorbitantly expensive for the asking price. And that’s the big reason R6S was DOA at release. Its recent surge in popularity is due to price cuts and COD fatigue. Although new maps are free, they don’t make up for the monotonous gameplay.

    There aren't dedicated servers for co-op mode, which is inexcusable. Players can’t be revived, so if a player dies early in a match, that player will more than likely drop out. If they’re hosting, the game ends. No host migration. Nothing. This happens a lot. Considering the impatience of Xbox tween gamers, I’m surprised Ubisoft didn’t foresee this. But since the problem isn't fixed, I doubt Ubisoft cares. Besides, peer-to-peer hosting is cheaper for Ubisoft. The experience is trashed so Ubisoft can keep more dollars in its pocket. This undesirable behavior affects multiplayer as well.

    Multiplayer games consist of round based matches. Players drop out so frequently between rounds lobbies often consist of all new players once the game ends. Normally, 2 or more players quit each round. So there isn’t much predictability in how matches play out. Fortunately, multiplayer modes are hosted on dedicated servers, so no host migrations. The downside is the inconsistency between rounds. If weak players drop out and better players join in, a match can swing wildly in their favor. And the opposite is also true. Multi-round win streaks can be stopped simply by the fact some players are sore losers and drop out.

    This leads to my next point, weak penalties for @$$holes. Rage quitters are annoying enough. However, team killing is a huge problem. It’s rampant, especially in terrorist hunt. I’m purposely killed at least once a night. One player was mad I picked his class. So he killed my character before the first round started.

    Another player killed my character for “stealing” his kills. That player was overwhelmed by 7 terrorists and needed the assist. He died immediately after he shot me. There’s next to nothing I can do except drop out. Why hang out with those jerks? Fellow gamers mention the same problem. The poor sportsmanship I’ve experienced in R6S rivals the immaturity of COD gamers. I’ve been team killed more in one week playing R6S than I have in the 4 years of playing Insurgency and Counterstrike GO. Ranked multiplayer imposes some fairly weak penalties, so most trolls migrate to casual multiplayer and co-op to ruin the game for everyone else. Players can be voted kicked, but the feature is abused.

    Siege is unpolished and overpriced. Ubisoft developed a half-assed tactical shooter and it somehow stuck around. R6S lacks the innovation and novelty of Ubisoft’s previous titles. There are better games out there, but wannabe progamers/twitchers promote R6S because it’s easy for them to play.    … Expand

    This game is ruined by bad servers, it really feels like a scam. I spend more time restarting the game due to the dreaded "smokey fog screen"-bug. When I finally get to play, 50% of the time I get no renown after finishing a match, which sucks as renown is used to unlock new content (operators, weapons upgrades etc).

Pick an attacking or defending operator, join one of the 4 different game modes, and your primary goal in any case is most often just to kill everybody on the other team. If your goal is to extract the hostage, just kill the other team. If your goal is to plant/defuse a bomb, just kill the other team. If the goal is to kill the other team, kill the other team. Glitches online are unsettlingly common. Renown, which is the game's in-game currency, is used to purchase additional operators. On principle, I did not get season pass or purchase additional renown because I did my research before this game was released and wanted to assess the longevity. Turns out I was right. New operators cost too much to earn enough renown to purchase them with, and the game is too boring and repetitive to play consistently enough to earn renown. It's really just a vicious cycle of mediocrity, but that is apparently what Ubisoft has become content with releasing recently.… Expand

    I seriously have no idea why they did away with the 3rd person cover and most of the successes of Rainbow 6 Vegas. This literally put rainbow 6 back on the map. The Graphics are terrible, the gameplay and FPS is sluggish and consistent with games you used to play on your old 486. Like Delta Force 2 or Rainbow 6 the first one to pc. I just don't get it!

This game was so hyped up. The only place you're going to see good visuals is the initial cutscenes. Unless they can put the Vegas mode cover system in this game is a complete loss. Server disconnects on single player mode. I really don't get it. You think Ubisoft would of taken chances like they did with Conviction and Black list. Seriously can't even begin to describe the disappointment and feeling I just wasted 90 bucks.… Expand

    Having put about 15 hours into this game, I can confidently call it what it is: fun garbage.

    Don't waste $60 on this broken game. Wait for a sale. When the game decides to work (which, flip a coin each time you boot it up), it's fantastic... but there are far too many issues this far into the life of the game to warrant a recommendation to buy it right now.

    I just spent the last 2 hours trying to play with 2 friends. We got in TWO matches and received credit for ONE of them. Both games featured multiple dropped players.

    Stay away from this POS until it's fixed.    … Expand

    There's not enough content for this game to cost $60. It's only worth $20-$25. Don't waste your money.
    The game-play feels slow and sluggish. There is NO VARIETY what so ever. Even though there's different game modes, they still play out the same way. You only have one life for every game mode. It's basically CoD Search & Destroy. There's not even any light mechanics like Thermal & Night    There's not enough content for this game to cost $60. It's only worth $20-$25.

It's basically CoD Search & Destroy. There's not even any light mechanics like Thermal & Night vision goggles, or shooting out the lights. What's the point of the season pass if all the new operators and maps are free? I feel like I've been ripped off for buying the Gold edition. If you loved Rainbow 6 Vegas DON NOT BUY Rainbow 6 Siege. I feel like Ubisoft has kicked me in the nuts for being a fan.    … Expand

    I have never played a worse game. This game literally makes me cringe harder than call of duty infinite warfare did. Not only is the game buggy, broken, and unfair but, the game is still trash even after 2 years of being out. Ubisoft completely destroys any game they touch excluding the single player based games.

Montreal needs to get there head out of the trash they call siege and start fixing all the crap they screwed up. It's an 18 year old game yet 12 year olds are the entire demographic. If I had a penny for every kid I've met in this half-assed game I'd have enough money to buy Ubisoft and Ubisoft Montreal just to tear it to the ground. All in all the games worth a free price tag, .5 stars, and a fully loaded gun to the head.… Expand

    A clever and compelling multiplayer offering that transplants the meticulous planning of classic Rainbow Six into a modern shooter - but concerns about its long-term prospects persist. [Feb 2016, p.75]

    Rainbow Six: Siege may give the impression of being a work in progress still but it nevertheless delivers a tense tactical experience for those of you who will manage to play it with friends willing to participate in solid teamwork.

    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.
