i was at the mall and strolled by borders and decided to pick up the OXM magazine with the rainbow six demo. Very impressed with it considering lockdown was a joke to the series. Its done on PC, and will never be back to that form, but the game is very solid. Its relatively difficult (minding the pretty dumb enemy AI that\'s always been in R6). Graphics are amazing but there are some spots where FPS\'s go down the pooper.
The lone thing im worried about is if there is 3rd person hiding view in MP, it will ruin the game. The camping will be 50 times worse than normal. I generally hate the console shooter community but i might just get the game anyway and play online. The 3rd person offline is great BTW, but my problem with single player is they use grappling, and they use it often..wouldve been a little more novel if it happened every now and then but they seem to beat it to death. But inverting urself while grappling is fun.
Just cant figure out how to tell my team what to do correctly (i send them into the open) and i cant split up the team right..if theres 2 entrances, i should be able to send my 2 guys through 1 way and me through the other but no luck.
edit: wow..i got the hang of ordering my guys..very awesome. You can Splinter cell peak into a room and assign who to kill first, second third; then u can set ur guys up in front of one door and you have the option of either busting the door open, flashing, or smoking, while you can either follow them in or use another entrance and attack from another angle.
Your teamates talk on their own too..some funny comments like "COVER ME!" (in a loud whisper) and the other guy said "F*** YOU!
COVER ME!!"
bahhh..the 3rd person hide thing is in MP...
