Ok I will do a breif description of the game. If you don't know what team rainbow is it is an Elite S.W.A.T squad that has never been defeated. you might be thinking... what makes this different from Rainbowsix3? Well first of all that is what I was thinking then I was like... "What the heck I might as well look at it anyway..." and what I saw that they were doign to the games multiplayer for the PS2 and Xbox was like "HOLY $HIT" I will explain the multiplayer below...

XBOX: P.E.C
The xbox version of the games multiplayer has a new type called P.E.C (Persistant Elite Creation) This will allow you to start at level 0 and very bad recoil, accuracy, Reload times, Agility, And weak weapons, No armor like in RPG's and then as you play more you will gain levels. Each level you gain for your character will get ability points. You can use these to upgrade your character so they can use different weapons not avaiable to their class at the start of the game (Will get into classes below). you can also upgrade your recoil, Accuracy, Reloadrate, stregnth, light body armor, helmets, and better weapons.

Classes
Commando:
The heavy assault trooper if you chose this class for your character you start with the Heavy weapons skill. As you gain levels you get heavy body armor, and this is what will blow your mind. A BALISTIC SHILD!!!. If you dont know what that is have you ever seen some swat teams witht he square black shilds? You can use that and give your allies cover!

Combat Medic:
The combat medic starts out with the submachine gun skill and as you gain levels will be able to get light body armor. However this is a small price to pay for the abilities you have. You will be able to heal yourslef and your allies using medical kits. You also have a specific grenade ONLY avalable to the medic class. The grenades are very leathan and will last a long time in one area because it is toxic nerve gas. It will jsut sit there blocking that area unless you have a gassmask. The medics will also get free gasmasks.

Spec Ops:
This is my favorite class and what I probably will be. They start out with the submachne gun skill and light armor skills. As they level up they will be able to use Sniper rifles and will have a PDA to hack survailence systems and find the other team with the levels cameras. Very usefull to a sniper I'd say. He will also get a knive to come up behind people and stab them. He is also the only class that has heat vision make him very good for helping with the breach door command.

Engineer:
The engineer starts off with shotguns. He mostly will play the role of Support/Defence as he has many gadgets that do JUST that. He has Poximity mines. Trip wires. and a movable turret. Yes a turret that he carrys around on his back untill he wants to use it! He will also be able to use much machinery on the maps and he will be able to hack doors and set up firewals to slow the enemies engineers from hacking his systems. He can use cranes and many other machines to block off parts of the map...


Customization:
You can completly customize your Agent in this game. First you will chose what gender they are then their face. Then you can chose what they will look like by puting hair, helmets, bodyarmor, Camoflauge, and other things. You will chsoe what class you are and then everygame you play you will gain experiacne to gain levels. As you gain levels you learn abilities and get money to buy better guns and armor or your Agent

ADDITION:
Is no one going to look at this topic... if so I might as well close it...

Yeah, this is the game I'd like to get, but Ubisoft made so many 9.0 rated games, usually I want all of them.

Ya i really trust Ubisoft... Anygame and everygame they make is good... Lucas arts on the other hand rushes their starwars games and they all end up like shit... Im fairly confident Ubisoft will make this game a 9.0 rated game

E3 Already Stated That: "The P.E.C Online Mode Showsa ALOT Of Promise"

It seems like TFC lol, Team Fortress Classic.

They might as well add mages and dragons if they allow medics to magically restore health when you are near death. Honestly, games feed kids crap that people can take more than 10 bullets, when 1 is enough to put most people down.

TFC is awesome



Not anywhere near true.

Man was hit by grenades, bullets, AND RPGs. He did die, but he pretty much single handedly stopped an attack on a marine bunker in Vietnam.

Moral: People can take more that one shot.

Anyways, I'm probably gunna get this game. I've liked almost all the other Rainbow 6 games, so yeah.

Sounds cool. I might get it

Wow, 1 man that can take that much... I guess that must apply to all other people right? No seriously, 1 bullet won't kill the guy if it's in a non-vital area, HOWEVER, the loss of blood can cause death.

But if your talking about 10 bullets or so, yea sure the guy could live for a couple seconds, but the loss of blood would kill him, if the bullets didn't already get his vital areas.

So my point is, there's people that die from a single bullet.

Lucas arts made battlefront good

oh yeah and Ubi Soft is my favorite game maker i <3 their games i have every game they made for x box except for like 3 or 4

Sure, one bullet will kill if you hit them in the heart, or the head, or a major artery, but most people can take alot more than one bullet. Someone getting shot in the stomach wont kill them, if if they're wearing like a steel helmet, getting hit in the head might not kill them.

Even without protection, people can take more that one shot. There was that lawyer who took like a clip of a pistol at point blank and didn't die, the guy who got shot in the HEAD at point blank with a 357 or 44 (don't rememeber) MAGNUM, and didn't die. There was a lady who was pinned against the ground and shot in the back of the head, but the bullet bounced off of her skull. I can probably dig up alot more then that

The point is that most people can take more than one bullet as long as they are fit. People in the army, special ops, ect, will be in training, and therefor be fit. People in Rainbow 6 are pretty realistic, one bullet wont kill but a couple will.

Wow, skulls can now bounce bullets off? I'd like to see this story.

What I'm trying to say is that people can die from either a single shot OR multiple shots. That's a fact.

But the way games like Counter-Strike portray realism is unbelievable. People can not withstand that many bullets and live.

From the forums I've been through, I've read about people who HAVE been to Iraq and HAVE seen soldiers die from single bullets, WITH armor. If you want the link, I'll give it to you in a bit.

As much as Rainbow Six improves on realism, it still doesn't come close to the real thing. However, the best example of realistic settings would be in a game called Hostile Intent, which is a mod for Half-Life. If you are interested in realism, you should head over to:

www.hostileintent.org

I won't bother arguing any further, as I would not know what being shot with a bullet is (and I doubt you would either), but like I said before, people can die from single shots as well.

Might I jsut add that its jsut a game... People play games to have fun... Not to learn hwo it feels to get shot in the face... The poin of this thread is that this is going to be a REALLY fun and cool game...

I agree with you there, I still don't see why everyone says CS is realistic...

Hostile Intent is pretty cool, but I haven't played it all that much.

As for the article, I don't remember where I saw it but I'll see if I can dig it up. Pretty interesting, the person was really lucky.

I'll give R6 props for being at least better than CS, in terms of realism. I do like the amount of customization here and there, but I just feel Hostile Intent is the more realistic game.
