Just want to say that I really enjoy this game and haven'thad this much fun with a shooter since my counter strike 1.5 days. Dying actually means something.


And thanks for not including a team death,arch mode with spawns that would have inevitably been the default game mode for 99% of,people leaving the core game a wasteland. A real breath of fresh air for me.

That would be the worst, don't do this.

The game is basically perfect. Maybe have a defender character that can place cameras around? That'd be cool. Don't nerf shields.

BIG VINCE COMIN FOR YOU
This game took a bit for me to come around to but I have to say it's a pretty good rainbow six game. If they had put in the development time to make a proper single player campaign it would be up there with vegas in terms of "ok I know we won't get a rogue spear but this is pretty cool"

I wish there was a no hud ~*tactical shooter*~ mode but the gameplay is pretty fun and scratches that sneaky low ttk tense no resplendent itch in a way hardcore snd does not in call of duty

I'm pretty sure you can turn off the HUD in the options. There's three options if I remember right.

I wish attackers would be more tactical, but I guess that's what I get for touching the stove.

I'm sure, it's just not the same as when it's the de facto mode of play for everyone.

I heard ranked play has less hud elements? Can anyone confirm? What else is different in ranked? I know you get to vote for your spot, are there any other modifications?

Ranked disables a few of the HUD notifications, such as being spotted by a camera or drone or if you destroy traps. It also doesn't show if you've wounded someone or caused friendly fire. It still shows objective locations if you've found it though.

Doesn't disable the spotted messages, and that is an often requested change.

My favorite part of ranked, which isn't a HUD change, is the longer matches that don't restrict you to one round (i.e. only attack/defense) in overtime. And of course, the ability to choose where to spawn.

Ranked right now is loving amazing; most players actually take their time to attack, listen and coordinate. It's too bad it takes forever to find a match sometimes.

I really need to get out of casual.

Had one round where open mic someone called me a oval office and to get out of their game to their friend because I was level 26 and apparently that means you're not allowed to hit casual ever again.

Another game someone got mad at "my tactics" and plotted to TK me because I was too run and gun for them as bandit/ash, even though I was easily mvp. Fortunately they got kicked thanks again to open mic bug.

You can ignore the first part. I mean, does it honestly matter? Are you going to feel bad if you perceive your rank or your stats as too low? At least it means you get to fight people of roughly similar skill instead of lumping a random set of 10 players together.

Then again the only thing I find 'stressful' about the game is the netcode and that isn't going to change whether I'm playing casual or ranked.

What specifically do you think is missing? I just bought this and had an amazing four hours fly past as me and a goon buddy did non-stop T-hunt. We had it set so it was just us, no randoms. We could disable certain modes so we started with classic T-hunt only, then added in bomb defusal and hostage extraction to mix things up. Just being able to play as a duo and set our "playlist" of modes was enough for us but we're easily pleased.

Game owns btw. Our favourite moment was after entering a house and clearing some rooms to cover our rear, some terrorists went outside and smashed their way in to flank us from a direction we thought was safe. We did not expect that to happen. So, so good.

Bot mode customization is unfortunately a very rare thing nowadays. In fact, barring corner cases of ambitious indie games, the last game I remember letting you do more than set the number/difficulty of bots is Timesplitters: Future Perfect, and that was what, a decade ago?

That's not to say I don't want that stuff for TH, because I'm in complete agreement with the sentiment. I barely give any fucks about the PVP but there's something uniquely appealing about Terrorist Hunt that I haven't seen in co-op games in a long time now, and I really hope that their ESPORTS™ fascination won't make Ubi completely ignore TH from here on out. I want some expansions and a fair few patches to round out the potential for cool co-op freewheeling tactics.

I've already met a surprising amount of friendly cool people in Hunt pubbies, too, some of whom I'm now playing with regularly and have already pulled all-nighters with, which is kind of nuts considering the current climate of online public gaming, but also exemplifies why I play loads of co-op games but don't touch PVP with a ten foot pole.

At worst I've met one singular person who was 4chanredditgaf.jpg and I'm sure his respective edgy-jaded thread will love how much he's spiting the man by paying full price for the game spouting "lol ubisoft" memes before teamkilling us and getting kicked within the span of ten seconds.

It would be nice if on the postgame screen of a TH round, you could vote to change the difficulty - there's been a few times I've been matched with a great team on hard, and it would be nice to bump it up to realistic to add a little (a lot) more challenge.

Yeah it doesn't really play like old R6 games at all from what I remember of them, its gunplay is similar to CoD/BF games though there is more recoil, and there is a good mix of close quarters and more medium range stuff. It is still pretty tactical though even having just 1 person you are coordinating with can make a massive difference. It's almost like Counter Strike with CODs gunplay on smaller, more vertical/destructible levels.

Another thing worth noting is that on consoles there is no form of aim assist at all in the versus MP. It ends up working fine with the slower pace of the game and all but it can take a bit of getting used to if you are used to games that have it. Overall this game has some issues but the core gameplay is fun as hell and if they get the servers/hitreg working a bit better it will be amazing.
