I remember playing RS: Vegas a long time ago and I thought it was pretty cool. Anyone here played Siege? The gameplay seems fun but Im not sure if the fun will last long. Also, its pretty expensive even with the sale going
>>321993094
Would like to know as well, OP.
Played vegas on 360 and had a blast even though I was used to cawwadooty and just rushing. Favorite map is the barn yard in vegas and the casino.
My only regret buying this would be having to have uplay on my computer.
I've got it for Xbone. It's one of the best games out right now for it. The lack of single player mode is more than justified by how good the multiplayer and terrorist hunts are. I don't play vidya much anymore, but I wanted the xbone for Christmas and picked up seige and can't put it down. Get a couple of squad mates and go against other people you know, its a ton of fun
Tl;Dr: Get it, seriously, very very fun. Maybe not for 60, but for 45 I would definitely buy it without a question.
>>321993094
It isn't Vegas at all.
It's a SWAT4/RavenShield considered multiplayer mode.
It's a lot of fun but 5v5 is the core game everything else is just a distraction and a small distraction at that.
I have it on PC.
One of my favourite online FPS.
It's pretty fucking good.
>bad matchmaking
>Unbalanced operators
If you can bear it, buy it.
it's pretty shit imo. wait for something else.

What is good about it?
>>321995457
What is shit about it?
Ive heard the community is good and more mature than your average mp shooters
>>321995618
It's actually different.
You have to plan your moves, speak with you teammates, give info, check corners, progress carefully.
The gunplay is standard but very surgical (Pretty much every headshot is a OS kill), and the different operators change a bit the way you play each game, and it also makes every games a bit different.
>>321995618
I have never utilized game or party chat in more than a social way for vidya. But with this game I find myself in groups of 4 others in party chat planning our strategies and helping one another. It's probably one of the most strategic shooters I know of. Each operator choice matters, and if you separate from your squad your fucked. It's not a game that you can blow through guns blazing cause those suicide bombers will fuck ur shit up senpai desu
The fact that the tides can change any second is the best thing in the game, its so fuckig intense.
Also when you alone win a 1v3 and you kill the last guy in the last 6 seconds and then your whole squad is screaming and laughing in the excitement is pretty awesome.
Or when your buddy with kapkan gets 4 kills with 1 trap and you just cant stop laughing
If you buy it get it with friends or join a clan, its a must imo.
>>321996270
Is a mic standard? Sometimes I prefer just playing in silence
it's great fun, really tense at times too. different operators mixes the gameplay up a lot too
only problem is the fucking servers and whatnot
>>321996681
Yeah, most of the time I play in silence with strangers. But I like the community a lot. You don't have to have a mic, I didn't for a few weeks and did fine. It's just better with one bc its not all screming and little kids cursing at their hot moms desu senpai
>>321993094
Get it now. The community is awesome since its not a CoD type game. The gameplay is original, something I thought I would never say about a Ubisoft game.
If you like planning, tense moments and don't mind the slow pace, you'll enjoying. If you want to sprayshoot like an idiot, don't get it. Also, no singleplayer.
are people playing T hunt or mp more?
>>321996681
You can have the shittiest voice or accent, communicatiob is still highly apprecuated and is a big help in the game.
>>321996541
Kapkan and tachanka are fucking GOAT. I'm liking ash a lot bc of her G36c but kapkan is so good.
>>321996965
I'd say MP more.
You'll still find people for terro hunt.
It's just funny how I was worried to get an Xbone for Christmas on accounf of the bad hype about it on here, but I honestly love it.
>>321997065
I do terrorist hunt quite. abit, even more so than MP desu
It's fantastic. My game of the year. It feels like an indie shooter, one of those hidden gem games you buy for 2$ in a Steam sale and you put 300 hours into. But it's somehow a AAA game (and has a AAA price tag, which is the worst thing about it). It's very team based and the way the game is structured you can have good teamplay even with random scrubs. Every operator has a unique ability that can be nixed by another operator, so everyone has a role to play. For example the defenders can reinforce a wall which only Thermite can breach, but if Mute places a jammer Thermite can't do shit, unless Thatcher throws an EMP grenade. The maps are well designed (except for the plane map which is bad because it's so linear) and you can destroy the walls and floors to get an advantage over the enemy. Every time you attack is like deconstructing a puzzle that is the enemy's defenses. You don't know where they can be hiding but you have tools to find them. It's very intense. Community is quite good, everyone knows their roles and there's always at least one person on the mic.
Then there's Ubisoft bullshit like the season pass and microtransactions, but the season pass is mostly worthless and the microtransactions are only some gun skins. Also the servers regularly shit themselves and it can take forever to find a game, but I was playing today and it seems to be fixed, for now at least.
>>321996997
>>321996541
why can I never seem to get kills with Kapkans traps?
I'm loving it. I'm a level 55 with all the operators unlocked, and I'm having nothing but fun. I don't even have a positive KD ratio (though it is getting closer now) and I have a blast every time I play.
They literally get that one more match feeling just right, it's a hard game to put down.
I often find myself up at 1 or 2 in the morning on weekdays playing it, which is stuff I haven't done since I was in high school.
If I had one complaint, it'd be the lack of splitscreen. They could've at least made terrorist hunt couch co-op, but whatever. I just play 5v5 multiplayer anyway.
>>321997293
Because you place them too close to the objective where the enemy expects them
Put them in random places around the map and catch them off guard
>>321997293
Id say its random.
Numerous times i killed people with a trap when i placed it just randomly inside somewhere and they went into as they were tryin to find cover or something
W
>>321997293
How many traps have you fallen for after your first couple times? If that even? I literally think I've only died by three in total, and one of which was as a defender when an attacker triggered one I was close to.
>>321997510
Stairwells fo basements are always good for me. Bc enemies think it's okay to breach a basement door on top of stairs bc they're not gonna bfewch a floor or anything. Spread out the traps, it makes a good prevention scheme
>>321993094
It's better than all other aaa titles released this year.
doesnt have great matchmaking hopefully it gets patched
when everything works its a blast, the operator concept is neat
has its handful of flaws, trying to put a turret down where you want it is a fucking nightmare
its the only game ive played recently where pubs actually knew what they were doing

I got it for the PS4 and it's pretty good. The main multiplayer mode is tense as fuck because you never know when someone is gonna bust through a wall or what's behind said wall. The whole operator selection is neat idea. It's not perfect though
>Servers are a cunt and often leave you hanging and have to hard reset
>Operators are unique so only one player can be them, which makes it a rush to get to the one you want
>If you join midgame you don't get to pick an operator so you're stuck with a Recruit who has no abilities
>The "campaign" is a glorified tutorial
>Consolefags have to deal with terrorist hunt and the campaing being 30fps
>Needs more map variety. IE more places for objectives to be placed
>Not everything is destructible
>>321998880
It should auto assign your most played operator that is available if you join late.
>>321999023
Are you saying it does that or that it should be doing that? Because if it's the former I end up as a recruit all the time.
>>321998880
>>321999023
What happens if it's some other guy's most played as well? There's no fair way to do it. First come first served is the best solution. You should get good with a few operators just in case the one you usually play gets taken.
>>321993094
Put a few hours into it and it's about as meh as an idea can be.
Which isn't to say it's bad but it's few core ideas are spoiled by the greater whole leaving you with a mediocre and unfulfilling game.
>>321999310
It doesn't, I just think it should.
>>321999310
I think you've misread it, I said assign to most played operator that is available after joining late, as in everyone has already chosen their preferred operators.
>>321999310
I'm just saying you should be able to favorite a few operators for the computer to pick one of those instead of sticking you as a recruit
>>321999452
This.
It's practically shovelware.
Not worth more than $10.
>>321998880
1. Isp related, 2 of my clanmates have issues sometimes, rest of us never have
2. Only if you play with randoms
3. On pc you can select, i guess consoles didnt get the latest patch yet?
4. Yeah pretty much
5. Hardware related issue, nothing ubi can do without getting another downgrade meme in their way
6. Its good, but some maps are more likely selectes than others.
7. Obviously balance reasons, otherwise thermite could blow up the whole map

>F2P
FUCK NO
Out with this fucking model
>>321993094
It's very addictive and repetitive. Matches are usually won by team wipes and not necessarily completing the objective, which is normal for game modes like these. The three game modes are basically the same because of this. But it's fucking hilariously fun. You can out skill, out smart, and out maneuver your opponent in ways not seen in any other multi-player game.
The catch is that the match making is ass, players regularly lose connection and leave teams shorthanded. The netcode might be the worst I've seen since bf4 and in a game like this with a bunch of obstacles and cover it gets frustrating.
Graphics are excellent on PC and surprisingly well optimized for ubisoft. Some tearing and stuttering. Not game breaking
It's an 8.5/10 MP shooter. Should be 39.99 Max price. I payed $35 so value for me personally was good. Those that cough up the full $60 might be left wishing for more. Wish there were more weapons and customization options it's very very basic stuff. Like, there's so little that it seems like they just said "fuck it ,that's good enough". You should have all types of opr8r tacticool shit, but there isnt. Cool camo locked behind gay cash shop.
Who gives a fuck, this is yet another online shooter that will be completely dead in 2 months.
Very fun game, but ultimately shit servers at the moment. Ubisoft devs admitted themselves that they didn't think this buggy shit was going to sell and their servers got overloaded during holidays.
I'd recommend it when it goes on sale again but for a much lower price; probably after the update. Unless you have friends who are willing to play with you, then the current $45 price tag may be good enough.
>>321999640
You said it's shovelware. The last Rainbow Six game was almost 10 years ago. Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed are shovelware. Siege is a unique shooter, not shovelware by any definition.

Into the trash it goes.
>>321999640
microtransactions are for cosmetics only. Literally every game has done this forever.
If Pokemon Snap was released today and they mentioned you could go to Blockbuster and print out your pokemon pictures, it'd get the same critics.
World of Warcraft literally had an external trading card game which offered in game rewards. Sounds like a cosmetic microtransaction if I ever heard of one.

>>321999847
It's shovelware, a online shooter without any kind of ambition to try and cash in on the eSports meme.
>>321999868
>Literally every game has done this forever.
So this is the Siege audience, kids that are way too young to remember that once, games gave you this shit for completing challenges, and not opening your wallet once again even though you already paid $60.
Then again, it's Ubisoft, why would they ever do something good?
>>321993094
Fantastic game. The PS4 community in Britain is very good, if you have a mic and you're being freindly and calling out targets, you'll get a lot of freind requests. I was in a full party of strangers within four days, and we had a blast. The rappling and general tactics are fun and the devs seem like they've put a lot of thought into the mechanics. The downsides mentioned in the thread are fair, but free maps and operators have been promised (I think).
Really, it's not much like Vegas, but if you get it on sale it's worth it. Best shooter of this year.
>>321999932
You still have no idea what you're talking about.
>>321999932
Was there even internet before memes?
It's seriously the worst cancer that has plagued the internet. competitive gaming has been around ever since pong, my nigger.
Just got it. Going through the single player parts before I try online. So far it's nice to see them put some real effort into the PC version, though Uplay still sucks. The levels and weapons seem pretty good so far, but I would of expected more loadout customization. A lot of the unlockables are just straight upgrades. Also how does a silencer do less damage? That doesn't even make any sense. So far it seems like the multiplayer is where the meat and potato is, but the game is technical enough that I'm afraid to just dive in, but I'm looking forward to it.
I bought it and have to say, it is a good game, but it's Ubisoft.
I mena, it handles tactical with arcade very well. But it's Ubisoft support.
It's the most interesting R6 game to be released in awhiel, and has characters instead of faceless operators, but, Ubisoft is in charge of expanding the game.
And has ranked and room for competitive level, but it has a server tickrate of 15 to 30, and it's the well know to fuck up Ubisoft servers, and the game does fuck up, constantly, kicking random people out of games and sometimes 15 minute loading times and looking for players.
And they know about this and announced they will patch it, but then again, it's fucking Ubisoft.
So I'm conflicted if I truly can recommend the game because when it works it's a fucking blast, but right now it doesn't fucking work.
>>321999932
It's a good game. By Ubi. I bought this game despite it being by Ubi. I played beta and free weekend. This game is worth it, no one was shoveling it. But again, I think you have to google what the term actually means.
>>321999879

Are you new to online gaming or something? This your first day?
>>322000132
The fact that the devs made an xbox huge forum post cataloging every little issue that players have with the game makes me think there's at least someone at Ubisoft who cares about Siege's future.
>>322000278
No, but I know someone having or not having a gun skin doesn't effect my gameplay in any way shape, shape, form, or budget.

Not really. Most threads die before 100 posts, and most people who play it admit the netcode is absolute shit. It's just the most recent thing being played right now. I think Overwatch beta died out and Squad is just an Early Access game, so there's a void left over for "latest multiplayer game".
Don't worry about Siege. Even Siege general believes it's dying in the coming months since Ubisoft is amazingly retarded and they practically have no idea how to keep a game alive.
>>322000206
Suppressors don't actually require sub-sonic ammunition and they sure as fuck don't require specific calibers.

10/10. Get it if you're not a cancerous autist.
>>322000545
What? I like Siege but everybody having drones and breach charges takes away a lot of skill. Operators like IQ are trash-tier because of it.
>>321993094
It could give CSGO a run for it's money if it would be cheaper.
Apparently there's an update in january with two more Canadian operators.
They will spill syrup everywhere to impede enemies movements?
>>322000430
They don't but why would you use the suppressor?. Supersonic ammo still cracks when breaking the sound barrier.
>>322000206
>Silencers use sub-sonic ammunition
It really depends on the caliber. A lot of ammo is already sub-sonic, and even then it still significantly reduces the noise. Also since it extends the barrel it increases time the pressure is behind the bullet pushing it faster. Snipers sometimes use it to extend their range. If anything it should do MORE damage. I understand that for gameplay purposes they can't make it a straight upgrade for everything, but it still upsets me a little. Especially in a game where many other attachments are straight upgrades.
It has a lot of flaws, many of them with UI and connectivity.
The gameplay is fun, but it wont last long with only 2 modes in multiplayer. T hunt is good for what it is, just a decent way to take a break from multi.
It just still feels like a $30 game.
Some of the skins and xp boosters you have to pay real money for, why not give us a way to unlock them through gameplay too?
Weapons and customization need more variety. Most classes only have 2 weapons to choose from, and your upgrades are basically either a scope or foregrip.
The lack of variety makes progression a boring grind.
Rounds deliver a pathetic amount of xp (but you can buy boosters!).
Ive heard that dlc operators will cost 25k renown.
When youre making 350 renown for a winning match, its going to take forever, not counting losses which net you less than 100 renown.
Multiplayer is where the game shines, and its tons of fun. Especially considering im usually a top scorer despite not being great or anything.
I wouldnt reccomend at full price, i picked it up for $45. Ill get plenty of hours out of it though.
The game just feels incomplete, if you dont go season pass, youll end up with 1/3rd of a game.

jesus christ, is it that hard to make a good game these days? This piece of shit is NOTHING like the others and even lacks basic shit like character customization, why the fuck did they go for the whole esports/moba crowd anyway?
>>322000963
Drones do her job better at spotting out gadgets, so again her weapon is the only redeemable thing about her. In a game where her role is supposed to be unique and a valuable asset, it's bullshit that she's only good for her weapon.
Ubisoft, if you are shilling this thread, get rid of drones. Make certain classes have them or make it an option like Nitro charges and wires. There's nothing tactical about rushing one spot because the team already found it so they don't give a fuck about stealth anymore.
>>322000915
I'll bite, have you ever fired any firearm that has a suppressor on it?
Ever wonder why they're called suppressors and not silencers?
You're not going to reach that 'silence' even if you went with integral suppression and sub-sonic.
In most cases they make the dB range tolerable, but the firearm is still quite loud.
>>322000949
>pathetic amount of xp

>>322001336
hey bro i heard you like games where you customize your character
barbie-dressup.goldhairgames com/
>>322000805
Drones actually add another level of depth. The defenders constantly have to watch for them and plan defenses against them with jammers and shock wire. And if you're spotted you have to move or you're a sitting duck. Siege is less about skill, far more about planning and positioning.
Also IQ is one of the worst operators in the game because Thatcher exists. What use is being able to spot electronics when Thatcher can just throw an EMP with a huge AoE and disable them?
>>322001336
>character customization in a first person shooter
Worst fucking game i had the displeasure to play.
There's the worst fucking lag compensation you ever saw in any FPS whatsoever. That or shit netcode, whatever, it's pure shit.
And the worst fucking matchmaking ever produced by human hands. Enjoy waiting for opponents every two game or so, enjoy infinite loading screens, enjoy your friend being kicked from the group for no reasons, enjoy 80 % wait 20 % playing.
It's shit.
Avoid like plague.
>>322000805
How does it take away lot of skill?
Drones have to be manually controlled.
Or are you unable to shot a drone down?
A game having gagdets doesnt mean it requires no or less skill.
In siege it actually benedits because you have to smart how you use them.
This isnt cod with wallhack scopes and smart grenades that do shit for you.
>>322001472
no but I like it when my games at least attempt to be something like their predecessors, this log of shit is battlefront tier. Having to play a specific character to use a specific gun or gadget should not be a thing in a fucking FPS
>>322001762
Also you can't filter if you want to join a game in progress or not.
Meaning 90 % of the time when you play "solo", you will end up joining shitty games already in progress that get stomped the fuck out without being able to do nothing.
10 / 10.
>>322001634
Exactly, read this. >>322001364
Drones aren't bad; having the entire team have 2 at their disposal is. There's no point in being quiet when entering a building, shooting out the cameras around the building, and taking everything cautiously when you know where the objective is. Everybody just rushes to it, THEN they play carefully outside it. If drone use was limited people would actually take their time and IQ would be a definite pick since now not everybody can look for gadgets, only a few.
>>322001954
>Having to play a specific character to use a specific gun or gadget should not be a thing in a fucking FPS
Meanwhile people say a class system is the best system for FPS games, like in BF1942.
>>321999640
>>322001995
I just don't think people complaining about stuff like drones have played the game much, or played at a high level. Drones are absolutely necessary when you're against a team of level 80+. This type of game encourages camping and the devs have done their best to eliminate it. When you're playing against a coordinated team who know the map and are really good at their roles, your whole team will get wiped in 2 fucking minutes if you're blindly wandering around without drones. Especially with operators like Pulse on the enemy team, who in the hands of a good player is probably the biggest threat to the attackers.
>>322001995
This is true for low level play where everyone just hunkers down, at high level play there will only be a couple of guys actually defending the objective and you'll have ambush points and roamers to contend with which could be anywhere.
In this context rushing the objective gets everyone flanked and killed.
>>322001954
>Having to play a specific character to use a specific gun or gadget should not be a thing in a fucking FPS
It actually works incredibly well desu, despite seeming MOBA inspired.
There's a kind of internal balance. Compared to every other game where people just work out what the exact best weapon, equipment combo etc is then everyone uses that until they have to nerf it.
