That E3 clip is so gay

Some wimps acting all tough and prufessinul with all those "roger that" and with overall fake involvement :lol:

It's like those motorcyclists who are working as a doctor/lawyer or in some corporation with their 1000cc sport bikes just to show how cool and crazy they are. Fuck me...

Oh wow, this game has freaking healing darts. They proudly show this new feature in their latest trailer.

Find it funny they have the agencies being represented seperately - kind of defeats the purpose of RAINBOW.




I like the convenient 3-4 inch spaces for the drone to sneak in.

Yeah, well, I don't see Clark or Ding anywhere either ;_;

Still, wasn't RAINBOW always depicted as a united team in previous games?

Yep, everyone had nationality and origin but weren't distinct - no GIGN logos on their vests.

But whatever, I already have CS for this, heh

Total shite. Raven Shield was the last good R6.

I wonder if Ground Branch will ever amount to anything.

Tried out the beta and I'm already bored, game feels very formulaic. Defenders choose a room where to hunker down, attackers scout the building with their tiny robots and charge in. In all the three game modes I've played almost every round plays exactly the same.

Movement feels floaty, matchmaking takes forever, netcode is absolutely horrendous with client side hit detection and no dedicated servers, the whole thing reeks of consoles.

Tried Rainbow Six: Siege Beta. It ended today and aside the completly matchmaking shit, it was pretty good.

It had NO HEALHT REGEN.
NO RESPAWS.
2-3 SHOTS, YOU WERE DEAD OR BLEEDING.
While bleeding you hould be on the ground and could NOT USE ANYTHING. You could only wait for your team-mate to bandage you up but it wouldn't regenerate your lost life.
Then you would have various other mechanics, like environmental destruction, security cameras, barricating doors and windows and so on...
The gunplay was also very well balanced.

I'll probably buy it. If they make the matchmaking work, add server lists (it was still a beta though) and the price is like some 20-25 euros on Kinguin (if by that time the multiplayer community is still alive).

Am I so out of touch, or did we really got to a point where lack of health regeneration is now a unique feature in a MULTIPLAYER-ONLY FPS? Whats next, don't tell me that it also allows players to aim with a mouse?!

Yeah, having the group actually you know, be Rainbow would at least make the high presence of females at least make SOME sense (where they would be pulled from is a mystery, but at least it wouldn't be in a real world group that doesn't have women).

The women issue aside, this is what the Amerikwas call RINO

Republican Rainbow 6 In Name Only

like someone said earlier, no reason why this couldn't be a new IP on its own, but nooo, muh brand name

EDIT: does GSG 9 not have uniforms?
