I would like to buy (Digital Download) Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear. I am confused however as to how to get the expansion packs for it.

I see there are a few - Urban operations, Black Thorn and Covert Operations. I believe tha later is a stand alone. Does this mean just get the Black Thorn and it will give me everything else?

Or after getting Rogue Spear will the servers still contain a way to buy the additional missions and packs?

Thanks

Each pack has its own material, despite CO (and BT I think as well) being standalone. And by standalone it means it doesn't need RS to play, however if RS is installed, you can toggle the new features on and off in the Mods portion of the Options.

In Australia I see every now and then
R6 decent games (pre lockdown)
for sale really cheap
in the AU$09 to AU$20 buck range

Try contacting your local shops
that sell PC and Console game software
and see if they can get stock of it .

I personaly dont like the pay2download
games since they are often MORE costly
then retail discs editions ,
the pay2download games will be more
or TWICE the cost depening were you are
in the world
and the pay2download editions often
have to use another patch then the retail
disc one .

Here is the deal with RS and the expansions.

RS is the base game. Installing Urban Ops allows you to use mods and there are many of them. It also allows you to play Covert Ops and Black Thorn as mods for RS/UO, but you can play either as a stand alone game.

Covert Ops and Black Thorn do not give you anything from the earlier games, you have to have them if you want the maps.

If you can, look for the Rainbow Six Collectors Edition and you get R6/EW with RS/UO and COE along with a big R6 Prima Guide. Black Thorn might be a bit harder to find.
