2013's Most Anticipated: Rainbow 6 Patriots | OnlySP

OnlySP: Back in its heyday, the Rainbow Six series was the king of tactical shooters. Nobody did realistic, open-ended and challenging shooter scenarios quite like that series did. When the current console generation arrived, the series made a trip to Vegas, and since what happens there stays there, it decided to experiment with third-person cover shooting with successful if slightly forgettable results. After a retread of that scenario in the form of Vegas 2, the series went on a temporary hiatus much like Ubisoft’s other Tom Clancy franchises, Splinter Cell and Ghost Recon. Like those games, it was inevitable that Rainbox Six would soon come back in slick, rebooted form sooner than later.

This game isn't coming out till 2014

It maybe even a Xbox 729/PS4 title now.

AAACE54106d ago

I hope it makes it out this year! Loved vegas 1. Had a lot of fun and met a lot of people with that one. Vegas 2 killed it and we all went our separate ways. Hoping for another great experience. They better bring back retrieval. That was the best mode!

Wingsfan244106d ago

Source? We know it's supposed to be a next-gen game, but no ones said it wouldn't be making it out this year.

BattleAxe4105d ago

I don't think it will get released this year. We've seen nothing since they released that cgi concept footage 1 1/2 - 2 years ago. Splinter Cell is their big focus this year, and I would be very surprised if they didn't continue with their yearly Assassin's Creed release.

Fil1014106d ago

I'm gonna be well pissed if this get delayed till 2014 as i'm sure alot of gamers will be. Seriously ubi you need to make this happen this year as i'm sick to death of every other online out there

sdozzo4106d ago

They had to slow it down. Every year was a Tom Clancy title.

It looks pretty good. Shame they had to pad out the trailer with the ridiculous team chat. Should have just showed it for what it was because it would have carried some weight without it

Transporter473607d ago

I think it looks cool. If you ever played a game called "SWAT" its the same exact thing, I am not sure if Ubisoft copied the formula and pasted it for this Raibow Six game and they killed Rainbow Six Patriots...

PSN-JeRzYzFyNeSt3607d ago

Ubisoft with another great E3...

Shape up looks really dope prolly the Only game that would make me want a X1 for .... deadass... Microsoft games just dont appeal to me idk y even though Phantom Dust did.. other then that nothing

Rainbow Six is awesome been waiting for this dam game to get re-announced...

BISHOP-BRASIL3607d ago

Actually, the original Rainbow Six were not that different from this rescue mission either.

But to actually give the classic tactical shooters feel this will need some major bullet mechanics work and damage buff. Those bullet sponge moments were awful as well as how bad the hit detection seens to be... I know it's just pre-alpha, may very well had been rigged like that just for the E3 demo, but still this is primary concern for any tactical shooter so I hope they have that worked on.

gamertk4213607d ago

^^^this, but no worries, it is pre-alpha.

Peppino73607d ago

SO far this was my wow for the day! I loved the teamwork with the countdown timer. My new very anticipated game! I know its pre alpha but I really hope the graphics get a lot better because it didn't seem like it was in a wide area that graphics should suffer.

I agree the stock voices were cringe-worthy at best. Let the game play do the talking......

Pandemic3607d ago

The destruction is just.. Awesome.

THE-COMMANDER3607d ago

Yep, i noticed how awesome it is!

fenome3607d ago

Looks good, I like the concept and the destruction looks on point. Can't wait to see more on this one

Double_O_Revan3607d ago

That house was completely destroyed. Amazing

KTF263607d ago

unfortunately
it's pre-alpha footage
so don't expect it before 2016

Themba763607d ago

looks like i might have to give up battlefield and come back to rainbow six

Majin-vegeta3607d ago

Love me some G36C gameplay :3
