"Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is the upcoming installment of the acclaimed first-person shooter franchise developed by the renowned Ubisoft Montreal studio for the next generation of consoles and PC."
I've been playing the beta and it has good gameplay. They seem to have ironed out most of the bugs already. Set for release this Tuesday

If you have it through Steam, you download and manage the content through Steam and you only have to authenticate through Uplay. If you buy it through Uplay, you have to download and manage the content through Uplay which is frankly rubbish compared to Steam and a real pain in the neck. I bought a couple of games on Uplay and gave up trying to download them, even though Uplay was maxing out my connection the game was downloading at a trickle plus once it's downloaded you can't move it to another PC, you have to download it all over again. It was an expensive lesson never to buy anything through Uplay, their forums are filled with people having identical issues for months and months but almost completely ignored by Ubisoft aside from useless generic solutions.

What?
It's a uPlay game, so even if you buy on Steam it launches uPlay. If you want to launch through Steam then just Add Game ... no probs ...

Ordered this last night after playing the beta again and you're right about the bugs I also like the little gpu box saying how much ram it's using for people without 2+ monitors or lcd keyboards :smiley:

Still loads of server issues across all platforms. Really good gameplay when playing with a good team with mics. Let's hope they can properly fix the issues, not just bodge job it like they've currently been doing.

That's why it's in Beta. They are/were stress testing servers and fixing server bugs. The actual game, even in it's beta build it pretty well polished.
I don't think a lot of people realise that this beta is a build of the game from about 2-3 months ago from just after the alpha testing and closed beta. The gameplay should be better upon release also as they have said they have changed it quite a bit for launch.

Amazing game. I'm not a PC player but that looks a fantastic price.

Shames it's uPlay and not steam. Good price though.

I understand that but I'm a bit of a collector I like all of my games via steam client. It makes accessibility to everything much better for me.

You have to play through UPlay regardless if steam or not ! I bought it last month at the same price, no way on this earth was I paying steam prices. Its a good game, playing the Beta at the moment. Has loads of issues but patches can fix them.
