it was the closest thing to modern military the 360 has to my knowledge.
playing the call of duty 4 beta i realize the standards that this industry should have as far as this game goes.
Realizing and coming back to this.....sub par game... is just painful.
lagged multiplayer. especially the bullets lagging a full second behind.
no m4 and m16? rofl. yeah yeah old news but its still pathetic that they left those out for financial reasons. Watered down graphics for mutliplayer. puh...
I will grant it a pretty selective variety of weapons. But thats about it.
Now that there is an alternative..and a much BETTER alternative i might add, to this....game.. if you can call it that considering all the bugs and such. (though i commend the developers effort to attempt and repair these bugs.)I no longer have to endure this and can play a sophisticated and good looking type of modern military game.
Thank god for infinityward.
oh and clancy... make sure you include the majority of the main weapons in your next time.

So you don't like this game because COD4 came out and it is better? Or you like this game just COD4 is the way this game should have been made?

sry reading the earlier post i realized that i didnt give any real amount of reason behind my aggitation.
Bugged game, i.e. glitching through windows doors etc.
HUGE host advantage.
Again with the m4 m16 steyr aug (you know which one im talking about guys... not the A3 but the other one.... that we ALL..know of.)
no 1 hit kill rifle period. Having any other sniper rifle besides the psg 1 is simply ******ed because they almost always take 2 hits to bring the guy down anyways.
I admit i do like the character customization. Good job on that guys.
Maps were pretty good as well with the exception of..well i mentioned that before hand.
The watered down graphics for multiplayer was annoying. especially for a next generation game.
The point system was god awful. I agree youll want to put in time to get new weapons etc. which is nice. Dont get me wrong. But for the amount of games you have to play (and win) to get to the top rank? jesus christ. I stopped caring after captain.
Sub par storyline. A little too cliche as well. but at least it gets the job done i suppose.

It was made to be clunky (i understand tactical do not misunderstand me.) and lagged shots and things that logically should happen dont? please explain.

I see your point now, and I agree with all of them besides the one with the guns. I don't really care about new guns. It would be nice to see those in the game, but it makes no difference to me.

in my own opinion it simply makes the game feel incomplete to me.
I do hope clancy makes a follow up to this. I just hope they use a different engine and include a FULL weapon set. Theres been enough discussions to have caught there attention for next time im sure.
Anyways have a good day though mate. Off to do a bit of school work.

o and sorry but i disagree with you, the reason that call of duty 4 is "better"(in your opinion) than rainbow six vegas is because this is almost a year later. obviously games are going to continue to get better and better. i personally haven't play the multiplayer beta and i bet it is great, but this is a year later. what you are trying to say is like NBA LIVE 2008 is better than NBA 2K7. Better graphics, more up to date technology, whatever, i just don't think this is a far comparison.

I don't think anybody ever claims that R6V is perfect but it is not a bad game.
Ok so the multiplayer graphics are not 100% but I assume this is to help with lag etc. With so many customisations for your characters appearance for the console to render all the different options at a higher resolution would no doubt have an impact on performance, at least that is what I would imagine.
With regards to host advantage, to be honest I do not find R6V too bad. Yes at time it is almost impossible to kill the host however I plaied a game of Gear Of War the other day. Now my skill in GoW is somewhat questionable, I am somewhere between rubbish and completely useless. Needless to say as soon as I became the host with the same people and teams on the same maps I was getting kills against players that I know were a lot better than myself That just doesn't happen when I play GoW as I am that bad! http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/88.gif
In R6V this is not the case, yes there is a slight advantage but to be honest it doesn't make that much difference.
Either way, despite the low-res multiplayer graphics, a few glitches R6V has what matters and that is excellent gameplay and a really good community (with a few exceptions).

please dont say headshot. we are all aware the headshot is a 1 hit kill. But for those other 70-80% who are not crack shots it would be nice if a rifle we earned after playing for a good while was a 1 shot kill.. especially considering the online host advantage and yes it is a BIG difference with host advantage. especially in a larger room.
Levi117: It is in my opinion that the time frame is not significantly different from that of the earlier cod 2 and it is in my own personal opinion that the cod 2 graphics were superior to this game online and about the same (im assuming since the game is almost completely comprised of the light bloom effect) in the single player campaign
Ghost scout: Yes you are correct. there are no hosts as far as im aware. (though sometimes everyone will be booted due to a "host" closing a session. So im not specifically sure whats going on with that.)
I didnt expect r6v to be perfect. i just wish the online was as stable as the single player campaign. Again want the higher res textures with the main stream weaponry. Just feels empty with out those few rifles and smgs. I wasnt able to get into GoW too much. not entirely sure why. Community was bad i know.
I will agree on the note that the community on this game is significantly better then GoW and even CoD 2 and 4. I have no played 3 online so im not sure how they are.

Tom Clancy has nothing to do with this game. He sold his name to Ubi. He doesn't even write all his books.
The main reasons that CoD4 is by far the best thing on XBOX Live at the moment is, the developers took their time with it. Whereas Ubi$oft want to pump out games every 10-12 months. They rush their developers to make something that isn't nearly as good as it could be. Vegas is a good game, don't get me wrong I've played the hell out of it. The thing is, it could've been a LOT BETTER. Let's for instance, Ubi held a public beta to get feedback on how to make the game better. This can make the games release get delayed, but it's for the better. Not saying anyone in this thread is like this but, look what happened when they delayed this game and the first map pack. People were all over this forum crying about it and demanding they get it. Look what happened, we got an unfinished, glitched out game. Ubisoft needs to go to I.W. and see how you cooperate with your fans. At the end of the day, we pay their salaries.

Yep! It's about time people get to know this.
Clancy has sold his ''name'' to Ubi$ucks many years ago and has absolutely no control over what Ubi$ucks may do with the TC brand.
If Ubi$sucks intend to release a game called ''Rainbow Six against the Raving Rabbids'' where all the Rainbow operatives are wandering naked, then Tom Clancy can do absolutely nothing about it. He couldn't care less anyway.

I agree with the community crying about the auto shotgun, mp7, and such. If its in the game...use it. But the maps are not made for you to hide in. Just tactical confrontations.
People are always on the move and half the time you end up in a frontal confrontation so when you make contact theyre already laying down fire or dodging and weaving. So a 1 hit rifle would be advisable especially since there isent a whole lot of long range among the maps. The bolt action levels it out as well.
Assault rifles are not 1 hits either. A somewhat accurate burst will always fall behind the ol 1-2 of the psg.

As for the maps, there are a few that come to mind that have ideal sniper positions.
Of course, snipers move to another spot after they take the shot. I think it's too tempting to camp in this game for most people to do that. The ones that do are annoying, but effective.
Nono, your using an ar like a sniper rifle.
Aim for the chest and hold the trigger, or in the best case and your feeling lucky use a few rapid single shots.
I'm still thinking about your one hit kill thing, and thinking about CS's AWP.
Realisticly though, if you get hit by that .338 your gonna go down, so...

Moving after a shot is always a good idea anyway, it is a tactic I have starting to use and my deaths have dropped.
As soon as I get a kill I am off to find another spot, the best spot of course is one that enable you to see where you were before and where you got the last kill as the majority of the time the person/team that you just killed will either return to where they were to try and get you back or head for where you were. Then of course you are ready to take another shot, works 90% of the time. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

2. always aim for the head, neck, upper chest, odds are that the bullet will hit them in the head anyways if your lucky
3.when using an assault rifle as a sniper, NEVER, hold the trigger. you always shoot in bursts, never hold the trigger, that is the worst thing you can do to try and take someone down at a long range. the bullets will spread and the recoil will mess up your aim, and odds are they will kill you.

I use full auto to snipe all the time. You just have to know when to release the trigger.
The head is a very small target to hit when moving on the battlefeild, the best thing to to is use a burst to the upper chest, the recoil will pull the gun upwards.
If your going to use an assault rifle at a distance best used for a sniper rifle, use at least a battle rifle, or normal sniper rifle.

ARs are more useful than snipers, as sniper rifles are made for one thing, and AR's can fill a variety of roles, up to LMG.

Yes there are hosts on COD 4. It's like Halo a certain player's connection is host at the beginning of each game. You can tell who is the host in a bad server because the host will be green and the rest of the players have red connections. When I'm host I definitely have an advantage over other players. It's hard to tell when you're lagging in this game because there's so much going on.

The way i see it as far as the guns go, there is pretty much always 1 gun to counter another. For example, a sniper rifle may be a beast at long - mid range but if someone gets up close to you with anything that isnt a sniper rifle, you may as well just sit there. Other than that you could wip out your pistol and let a few rounds go. Chances are, you will die. The opposite of that could be seen as the XM. Against a sniper or assault rifle at a longer range than 5 metres (lol), the player without the XM will probably come out on top. (Obviously theres always the chance your going to get a dead crazy 'noscope' with the sniper or an overly accurate blast of XM meanness in the face.)
As for the graphics online.... id much rather that the gameplay was better. I dont think really that the graphics in multi are anywhere near as bad as a few people in this thread are making them out to be. Really, its not like you have enough time to go looking at the nicely dust walls of the streets while your in a sharpshooter. lol. If it stops the game lagging as much then i have no problem with it.
You will ALWAYS get some lag in whatever game you play online. That is the sacrifice you make when playing online. Some games may handle it better than others. Fact. Simple way to get around it is, when searching for a game to join, make sure its a green pinged server and there arent a massive amount of people in there. I find that when you get over 12 players in any game (not just RSV) you will experience lag. I also find that a nice number of people to play with is between 6-10 people. Obviously this depends on the size of the map.
I play this game because its a nice relief from the stresses of real life. Which is what any game is about. If this game doesnt do it for you then by all means find a new one to play, get good at, get bored of, and move off. At the moment RSV has kept me interested for longer than any other game has so far. Probably helps that some of my real life friends play it online. lol.

ARs are more useful than snipers, as sniper rifles are made for one thing, and AR's can fill a variety of roles, up to LMG.
Which is why i believe a one shot one kill rifle should have been implemented.
If the other rifles outweigh a gun that is supposed to specialize at a certain circumstance then why bother having the inferior gun to begin with?
Again, this wouldnt be so bad if the multiplayer net coding was done correctly.
As far as i know CoD, far cry instincts, and Counter strike are the only ones that use an instant bullet response system in the multiplayer communities. I.E. on your screen if you fire. your bullets on the spot right then and there.

What is point with armor if you get killed by one shot anyway?
Dont blame it on this game because you have a ****ty connection (you call it bullet lagg, I call it Latency)
Stop this whining about everything.

Thats the thing I hate. Someone running around with nothing more than a skimpy shirt on. You put 3 bullets from an AR into his chest and he keeps on running. There is no way someone is going to keep on running at that speed when they've got 3 bullets to the chest, they shouldn't even be standing.

Depends, if it's a 5.56mm then he could very well be standing. There have been reports of enemy's taking 5-6 bullet and not going down. If its a 7.62, then it's a totally different story.

With just a shirt?
He would go down.
He might get back up, however the thing about the 5.56 is that once it penetrates, it tumbles around before (and if) it exits.
So that guy would have some moderate to severe internal bleeding going on.
He could fight but not aim that well and he wouldn't be running around.

Bugged game, i.e. glitching through windows doors etc.

Halo 3 seemed fairly polished (bug and glitch wise). Didn't find one glitch. Then again I only played it 3 times.

I just got the COD4 beta too and now that ive played it I cant even believe i ever liked rb6 , not that rb6 is so bad but just that Cod4 blows it straight out of the water.
