Ubisoft Releases Early Concept Footage for Rainbow 6: Patriots

damn, this is raw

rainbow six shooting nypd... not sure that will make the final cut though lol

I like when Ubisoft brings cool new ideas.

It's a shame concept videos look more fun to play than the actual final game. Hope this will be different cause that looks pretty damn good to play.

Holy shit, R6 is ice cold. Loving it.

Looks like they've got some of the concepts from the newest Splinter Cell in there, like the cover system and the way the button prompts showed during the firefight. Definitely different.

guys, im told this is not actually gameplay footage

This looks pretty cool. Vegas and Vegas 2 were cool, I'll be keeping an eye on this.

Ending caught me off guard, wow that was dark, realistically neccessary in that situation perhaps, lives of many over lives of the few, but.. wow, had a big impact on me at least. Interesting concepts they have going here.

Say what you will about Splinter Cell: Conviction, at least it was smart enough to be as cinematic as it was and let the players have just enough control over what happened, based on this concept footage Rainbow Six seems to be heading towards the same direction...

No wife wiggles her booty round the house like that, birthday or no birthday!

I hope QTEs don't make it to the final product. Apart from that it looks pretty good.

Holy shit that looks so fucking awesome. The graphics does not seem like an unrealistic goal either.

HEY UBISOFT - MAKE THE GAME LIKE THIS AND YOU GOT MY 60 BUCKS OKAY!?

Heavy Rainbow 6?

*applause*

Well now... that got kinda dark at the end.

If they can nail the tone and feel of this video. Day One.

I really, really hope they manage to capture the atmosphere here in the final game. The violence has so much more impact when it's not all just faceless goons. Playing through the scenario from both sides at the same time is a great concept as well.

This looks goddamn terrible.  It's like they decided to take every single bad element in modern game design and HYPERCHARGE it.

That looks too fucking good. Damn. Dayumn.

This makes me want another Heavy Rain

I feel really naive saying it, but I think this looks pretty cool

lol revist R6V2 the graphics are AWFUL. LIKE TERRIBLE. This looks much better but it's not battlefeild 3 by any means

I'm genuinly impressed with the story. Seems like something Clancy might actaully come up with. They just strapped a bomb to that guy because he had a house. And his poor wife... I will be buying though I miss the old days of R6. Vegas was good but the single player needs to be more classic and less CoD.

This could be a fantastic game. They just need to keep the co-op and tactical gameplay. If they copy Modern Warfare like everyone else I'll be really disappointed.

This seems promising. My biggest fear is that they feel the need to continuously up the ante, and it elevates into rediculously over the top.

No Russian: The Game.

That was intense. I hope lots of those meaningful decions make it into the final game.

Well, let's give these guys a chance at least. They might make good use of the impactful stuff and not just make a shock/schlock sequence.

It's more likely here anyway.

PRESS X TO NOT DIE!

Interesting.

Poor bastard.

love it!

I love that bridge.

Pssshh....use your words Rainbow Six...no need to shoot NYPD

Also, no wife answers the door wearing that. Hell, no wife has the curtains open while wearing that.

The true tragedy of this video is that it doesn't end with the human bomb crying out "BUT IT'S MY BIRTHDAAAAAYYYY" right before exploding.

Have you ever heard of the webcomic Dr. McNinja? I feel like it would fit well with your brand of cynicism, given that it has unnamed meant-to-be-sympathetic characters saying or doing things EXACTLY like your comment. Self-aware in the best possible way.

It's one of maybe 3 total webcomics that is genuinely well made and I can read without being embarrassed for the creator.

That was pretty f'ed up.

I understand having GB original content in crap quality but why trailers? there's no point watching them from this site because I can find hd versions on youtube already.

They are aware of that and if you want to watch them as well as original content on this site in HD, then you get a sub. What I don't get is why 360p instead of 480p?

Could be cool. Gotta see actual gameplay footage first.

Oh and to all you cry baby bitch ass motherfuckers complaining about trailer quality on the site, go watch the trailers on IGN if you don't like it here. Like you come to this site to watch game trailers anyway. Jesus you guys are irritating.

graphics are good, story looks really awesome, emotional, and ballsy, but wtf is with the heavy rain type sequences?? i think that having the cutscene without the buttons would have the same effect, except would not be as gimmicky, i just hate this lame type of

"immersion."

Huh. Adam Jensen is in Rainbow Six now, huh?

Looks interesting, I look forward to seeing some gameplay from a latest build (assuming this section will be scrapped given what they put at the start of the video, but I would totally play that level).

That was adrenaline pumping and brutal.

I like it.

If your wife is that hot she would.

A terrorsit that's not Arab or Russian... wow that's refreshing

Very interesting pre-visualisation. I'm pretty sure the actual game won't look much like this though. Also, couldn't Rainbow just have shouted to the NYPD "Hey, hold your fire!" rather than shooting an officer in the leg?

I think this will only be interesting if they can give you options. Moral decisions loose any anguish caused to the player if there is only one decision which can be made after a pretence of two outcomes.

Despite the hate that has seemed to grow around Heavy Rain it was still one of my top games last year because it let you do or not do something, and there would be a continuation of the story either way.

Press X to High Fives.

Cool trailer but that isn't Rainbow Six, also I still dislike the mechanic of cover switch from First to Third Person, If your gonna do that just make a Third Person game which would be much preferable.

You got Heavy Rain mixed in your Rainbow 6.

WOW. That looks really cool. Something to look forward to.
