    So new guns, skins, and an XP system shamelessly stolen from CoD4. Yeah, I'll pass on this, thanks.

  • kenzie316 #2 4 years ago

    Yeah its totally stolen!!! as in cod 4 u can customise your character and the weapons in the single player campaign????

  • DAN.E.B #3 4 years ago

    Looks good will buy this
    co op is a must these days something COD4 sadly lacked

  • Gruff #4 4 years ago

    Totally agree Dan, no single player co op and very little multiplayer team co op going on.

    Played the terrorist hunt 4 in the team multiplayer R6 to death,
    3 buddies and a few beers you cannot beat it

    COD4 also lacks a cover system which for me is essential for my FPS games nowadays.

    I played the first one to death. I hope it doesn't take ages to rank up on this one. It took me about 6 months to get to elite on the first game.

    wtf. rainbow six vegas 1.1 more like

    mega yawn!

  • systems #7 4 years ago

    Looks good. Hope they keep the Live Vision camera support.

  • badabing #8 4 years ago

    @systems

    vision support is back and can be utilised in the single player/co-op game and multiplayer.Its much better than in the previous version, quicker to process and with much more detail

    @Baronen and kenzie316, who cares if tehy stole a couple of ideas, all they have done is make the game ten times better, cod was good but the teamwork side of it was flawed damn hard heres an example (" hey smith follow me a sec i got an idea" "what was that jones?" "forget it im dead" "who killed you and where from, o im dead now bloody grenades!";) sure this is what war would be like but it makes for shit team capabilitys because you have no time to think its just like halo run and gun, rainbow on the other hand gives you time with its cover system, characters are easy to recognise because of the unique customisation options and the other thing that make it a ton better is that you can host your own matches and decide how you want to play online ie: bann grenades, bann the automatic shotgun which is unstoppable half the time... rainbow over cod anyday!

    Quite enjoyed the first, and defo looking forward to this one. Love the idea of cross mulitplayer / singleplayer experience points. No doubt harder to balance, but hopefully it'll work out good...

  • azwipe #11 4 years ago

    the pc version of vegas one was shit on a disc. buggy as hell and they barely supported it; 2 years on it's still a mess. one more in a line of shitty ubisoft pc ports.

  • CHAOS_BROON #12 4 years ago

    you should get it on console then. its not that buggy on ps3 or xbox its shear brilliance.

  • kenzie316 #13 4 years ago

    @CHAOS_BROON sorry mate my comment was unclear. I was stating that vegas doesnt steal anything from cod as u cant do what vegas is attempiting with the ranking up in single player with cod. I loved the first vegas and cant wait for this one. I agree we need more co-op i loved terrorist hunt. that damn library with 50 realistic terrorists was mentally hard but thats what kept me playing. roll on part 2

  • CHAOS_BROON #14 4 years ago

    oooh i see what you mean now kenzie my bad, baronen doesn't know what he's missing tho :p
