Opinions of Rainbow Six Siege Beta
I played the Rainbow six Siege Beta this weekend and here is my honest opinion on my experiences
the use of characters is a nice way to spice up the gameplay, but you need to remove the character Jager. Her ability to see electronics through walls breaks the game because if a team is not found using the drones her ability to see electronics will give away their position.
with regards to multiplayer I am not happy to see that all the game modes are single life only. When i used to play rainbow six vegas 2 i avoided those game modes because who wants to sit and wait after they die. I was hoping to see a regular team deathmatch and the return of the game mode team leader.
the two game modes shown in the beta feel way to similar. this is a problem because people will get bored fast. you need game modes that feel distinctly different. for example battlefield 4 has game modes that give a completely different experience. the modes of conquest, rush, and obliteration in battlefield 4 are completely different and when you play each mode player strategies must be different. when playing the beta every match felt the same even when playing different game modes.
The terrorist hunts are very improved from the ones in Rainbow Six Vegas 2, but the suicide bomber needs to be changed or removed. the suicide bomber takes a lot of bullets to put down and you almost never hear them coming. either remove the suicide bomber or have them make more noise so you can hear them coming.
I am not happy that the cover system has been removed from the game. I personally saw the cover system to be a very important tool in the rainbow six vegas series. without the cover system the game feels wrong.
the gun customization felt a little lacking. you should look at how battlefield 4 did weapon customization for inspiration
overall I will likely not be buying the game. With no campaign mode and the game modes feeling to similar i worry that i will get bored of this game fast and it wont be worth the $60
maybe your next game will peak my interest
