i mean guess

2019-08-13 20:52:58 UTC  

CS is shit too

2019-08-13 20:53:17 UTC  

Rainbow six is about counter-terrorism, yeah, but about specifics

2019-08-13 20:53:21 UTC  

R6 could be good if they balanced it, unfucked it and actually dealt with griefers

2019-08-13 20:53:45 UTC  

more broadly they definitely tried to unseat CS

2019-08-13 20:53:48 UTC  

siege was way better at release

2019-08-13 20:53:50 UTC  

but failed horribly

2019-08-13 20:53:52 UTC  

you can't chage my mind

2019-08-13 20:54:02 UTC  

wasn't siege busted for shit on release?

2019-08-13 20:54:07 UTC  

yes

2019-08-13 20:54:09 UTC  

terror cells, international conspiracy, delicate political situations

2019-08-13 20:54:11 UTC  

but I liked it more thatw ay

2019-08-13 20:54:20 UTC  

nobody knew what they were doing

2019-08-13 20:54:23 UTC  

no bullshit operators

2019-08-13 20:54:29 UTC  

almost no fucking roamers

2019-08-13 20:54:45 UTC  

of course they didn't. they didn't want to make rainbow six, they wanted to make counterstrike

2019-08-13 20:54:56 UTC  

and people didn't know about the power of Jaeger's acog yet

2019-08-13 20:54:58 UTC  

i mean it plays nothing like CS

2019-08-13 20:54:59 UTC  

it was a simpler time

2019-08-13 20:55:03 UTC  

yeah

2019-08-13 20:55:14 UTC  

it's more like a really slow CoD

2019-08-13 20:55:26 UTC  

with very low TTK

2019-08-13 20:55:33 UTC  

two teams, player elimination, match/round based setup

2019-08-13 20:55:39 UTC  

yeah but the mechanics

2019-08-13 20:56:22 UTC  

there's huge emphasis on things like intel and modifying the environment to your advantage

2019-08-13 20:56:30 UTC  

it was literally part of the starting selling points

2019-08-13 20:56:47 UTC  

I still don't get how they think nerfing the second worst op (Glaz) and then barely changing *the* worst (Echo) was good

2019-08-13 20:57:31 UTC  

its still just not a fuckin rainbow six game.

2019-08-13 20:57:41 UTC  

true

2019-08-13 20:57:49 UTC  

but it has its own charm tho

2019-08-13 20:58:03 UTC  

if there's an echo on the opposing team on bomb and it's 1v1 you can't really win

2019-08-13 20:58:03 UTC  

or, at least used to

2019-08-13 20:58:06 UTC  

same for montaigne

2019-08-13 20:58:12 UTC  

Wait, "I've seen players dump magazines [...]" and hit nothing but air? Is that a halfway Matrix reference? XD

2019-08-13 20:58:19 UTC  

where's the governmental agencies having jurisdictional pissing matches? or the kidnapped teammates? or bomb detonations?

2019-08-13 20:58:25 UTC  

montaigne can plant and you can't unseat him if he backs into a corner

2019-08-13 20:59:34 UTC  

where's bugging phones to get intel on connected figures or planting a bomb on the kingpin's getaway plane?
