Unfinished: Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege 04/08/2015

Neat

Ooo fancy

A shooter BASED AROUND CAMPING! GET YOUR CLANCY OUT OF MY PC!

No, Clancy!

fancy clancy

Can't wait for the Closed Beta on PS4, game looks awesome!

Been playing this a bit over the last few days and it is pretty fun. The trickiest part is learning that walls and ceilings are not safe, putting your back against a wall is not often safe. It's a little camping heavy perhaps but I don't know, it's been really fun. I especially like how quick everything is. Each round is only a few minutes and the time in-between rounds is very fast.

The house map is best, the plane is pretty janky and smushed. Feels like a shot at a Counter strike from what I've played

I try to be optimistic about this game but it just looks so unlike a Rainbow Six game.

Looks super alpha. I hope they do a quick look of the full game.

@khann: falancy calancy

Would have been cool if he picked a different class

This game looks really cool, but like Evolve, it looks very one-note.

It's a lockdown baby!

I'm so clancy. You already know.

Wow... They were really under prepared for this one. Jeff didn't seem to know about how to change load outs or have any concept of the special abilities of the different classes. At least he didn't seem to have any interest in showing them. The Gamespot video for this gives you a way better idea of this game.

This doesn't seem to be the same game as the E3 reveal demo. I can't really tell what's so different about it though. Maybe implementing visual cues and it now being in the hands of actual people and not being choreographed just shows the seams a bit more. I don't know.

Now it just seems like a game, much like Evolve, where it'll be forgotten about a month after release.

I really want to play the alpha dammit

Edit: HA! I just checked my Uplay and I'm in~!

I think Counter Strike for humans is a pretty good idea for a game. I'm not totally sold on this implementation but it could be worse.

Every class can barricade every door or window as many times as they want. Some classes have reinforced barricades which are limited uses. And yes, you can destroy floors, via grenades, your guns or those explosives you set.

Still think this game is gonna come and go, like evolve. Nothing about it stands out

This feels very similar to Counter-Strike to me. Obviously there's major differences but the pace of the rounds, tight maps and no respawn after death really give me a CS vibe, which is great because I love CS.

Got onnnnnnnne!

They really need to make a proper sequel to SWAT 4

I know it's an alpha and everything, but it looks pretty plain compared to that "gameplay" trailer from E3.

Even though i REALLY like what i see, the real question remains - why would i pay 50 dollars for this when im quite happy still sinking hours into CS:GO.

@kubqo: well, it feels nothing like CS:GO, for one. so if you really love CS:GO then the answer is probably ... you shouldn't pay $50 for this. but i don't like the way CS:GO feels and this game feels a whole lot better to me (like the rainbow six vegas games)

Boy, this looks a lot worse graphically than the E3 reveal last year. Guess that's about par for the course from Ubisoft at this point though.

More Jeff and Drew Quicklooks please. "This unfinished game is so not done! What the fuck?!" I was pretty much dying right there

Home Alone Six

Really wish Jeff would have picked the actual classes to show them off, rather than just picking Recruit every time.

This looks pretty cool, but I agree with the ones sceptical about how fun a game like this will be in the long term.

Also, no single player or at least co-op = not care about game.

Ooh, it's the game that made whatsername "cry" at E3.

Jeff played this like CoD on a smaller scale and that's all the gameplay I've seen. The hostage doesn't even seem like a worthwhile objective when you can just kill everyone else instead.

This looks really fun.

I've got more faith in the life and the $60 value of this than Evolve. This is what counter-strike was before it became defuse-strike and quite dull. With the right balancing of maps and abilities and a lot of testing this could become something big, hopefully it won't fail because they won't (for now?) go the CSGO route of RMT skins hats etc.

I absolutely love that they turned Rainbow Six into a super casual feeling CoD game, with the only thing of merit cool to it is the planning phase and destruction, both of which are underwhelming compared to their original showing and claim as well! Can't forget the great feel of weapons with zero recoil as well, a staple of the series, just like everything above :D

(if they don't take super community feedback and change virtually everything about this game, I can't bother to care for it, or go back to the drawing board entirely)

Watched some streamers play this for a couple hours the other day as a team. With that kind of coordination, this could be good fun, especially once it gets more fleshed out. Best match was one where four guys consecutively fell off the roof of the house and died.

Textures are out of 2007

I'm with Jeff on this game. The core seems interesting and only time will tell whether the strategy element has legs, but the potatoes of this game will determine it's value.

I'm pretty sure I'm just feeding a troll here but they reduce the texture resolution in alphas and betas to reduce the download size.

Day 1 Buy !

Looks AMAZING <3

So it's like Call of Duty, but with a real #tactical reason to sit in a corner :P

Jk I'll probably still get it

Nice to see this title coming along. The destructive environment stuff is great, but I worry that - like Evolve - there's only so much here to keep players coming back.

+1

I like the small scale of this; that specificity seems to lend itself to a more tactical focus.

Seems quite one note to me.

Also, no co-op terrorist hunt just absolutely kills any potential interest I had in another rainbow six

Looks pretty simple, but I could totally get into this. It's *just* different enough to get me interested.

But I definitely understand the concern that there will be an "optimal" strategy that makes all of the other strategies meaningless. Seems like a game that you'd have to get in on right from the start, or you'll miss your window.

Same here. Oh well, back to Insurgency.
