    For once I've no problem paying full hack for this game. Always been a Rainbow Six fan, love the multiplayer so no single player doesn't bother me. Besides this game is designed to be played cooperatively, the terrorist hunt mode is solid on the harder settings!

    Got the pre order on g2play for 34, thats a reasonable price to me.

    Will get plenty of time out of it.

    This has dropped off my radar now given it's full price and no single player - Rainbow Six used to have decent campaigns.

    Probably definitely worth picking up if a good deal could be had.

    Very good price alright but I am looking for it on XO so no chance of getting it for that price.

    Had only 3 games, takes way too long to get a game, matchmaking is broken.

    If PvP matching takes a dive I recommend trying Terrorist hunt which seems to work fine.

    * quick tip, don't sit in a lobby waiting for ages. Quit matchmaking and restart search. I have found matches really quickly that way.

    Would agree here. I got plenty of 5v5 matches last night, had alot of fun but something just does not feel right. I don't know if it is the delay in taking a gun up to aim or that moving feels really sluggish, and then I can't tell if the sluggishness is the frame rate being dropped.

    First negative that struck me is the gunplay for such a game is far too dumbed down,very little recoil, almost COD like.
    Apart from that im liking it.

    They better do something with the shields cause they're way to OP. Jesus the accuracy from any pistol is silly!

    Don't want to be *that* guy but I find generally most players don't know how to fight the shield classes effectively by using their equipment or class perks. My personal experiences of taking one down is:
    • Give main weapons a scope for better precision accuracy. When Shield is standing, aim for feet/lower leg, if it's crouched, aim for head (killed Montagne and Blitz in a row this way)
    • C4 is a definite sure fire way to kill one. If you or a teammate are either Smoke or Mute, make sure to hang onto the C4. Either throw and use when you see one or attach above door you think they might enter. Probably best way to kill Montagne when in full ballistic shield mode.
    • If you're fast class like Jager, it's possible to run around them to shoot in the back before they have time to turn around. Got a few kills this way.
    • This one sounds very cliché but using teamwork to luring one in for your squadmate to shoot from the side, or vice versa.

    Don't get me wrong, a good shield user can annihilate a whole team if they aren't careful. I also do agree that the accuracy on the pistols is quite accurate when hip firing, which should be alot more of a wild spread and should force a shield user to right click to aim more precisely to leave them open.

    Might be the gun you are using. I am getting decent amounts of recoil on the guns I use.

    Definitely strong recoil in this game. Even when using the SMGs.

    Still having big issues the matchmaking. You seem to be able to get games a little easier now but more often than not, you play 1/2 rounds out of the 4 before it crashes and every player has to leave the game and start again.

    Couldn't get a game at all last night after an hour of trying. Servers seemed to have taken a hammering with the new influx of players. Which in a way is good for a stress test but I hope it becomes alot more stable this evening/weekend.
