Counter-terrorist operatives are trained to handle extreme situations, such as hostage rescue, with surgical precision. As 'short range' specialists, their training is concentrated on indoor environments. Operating in tight formations, they are experts of close-quarters combat, demolition, and coordinated assaults.
The siege gameplay
For the first time in Rainbow Six, players will engage in sieges, a brand new style of assault. Enemies now have the means to transform their environments into strongholds: they can trap, fortify, and create defensive systems to prevent breach by Rainbow teams.
To face this challenge, players have a level of freedom unrivalled by any previous Rainbow Six game. Combining tactical maps, observation drones, and a new rappel system, Rainbow teams have more options than ever before to plan, attack, and diffuse these situations.
Procedural destruction
Destruction is at the heart of the siege gameplay. Leveraging Ubisoft Montreal's proprietary Realblast engine, players now have the unprecedented ability to destroy environments. Walls can be shattered, opening new lines of fire, and ceilings and floors can be breached, creating new access points. Everything in the environment reacts realistically, dynamically, and uniquely based on the size and caliber of bullets you are using, or the amount of explosives you have set. In Rainbow Six Siege, destruction is meaningful, and mastering it is often the key to victory.

Same. Cheap enough now for a muck about in single player for me.

Bought this earlier this week for £11.99. Played for first time last night. Excellent game for the price, lots of missions to do, OK graphics. Hot

Bought it this time. Still not happy about being down season 1 and 2 on content, but I'll just have to bide my time and pick that stuff up as cheap as possible if I like the game.
Don't mind spending money on games, just feels like the price to buy into this initially without having a lot of content withheld from you is above average.

You don't have to spend any more money. If you play it you can unlock all of the operators one by one and the new maps are universally accessible anyway.

FYI, although I purchased both Season 1 and 2, EVERYONE gets access to all the maps and operators. All you get with the season passes is instant unlock and a week early access to the operators (map at the same time as everyone else).
There is like a 5% renowned bonus and some weapon skins but no one really cares about that stuff.

Anyone buying this for single player jollies, you're going to be pretty disappointed. Unless, of course, you like the terrorist hunt mode which lets you kill AI enemies in various maps. If that's your thing, cool. But, just know, this game really doesn't have much single player content available.

Yeah I know there's no campaign or anything. :disappointed: That's why it had to be cheap. :smile: I did quite enjoy the training missions and stuff I did in the free weekend. I don't have enough time to play all these games so I doubt I'll finish even the little single player content it has!
