Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege Reviews
Tense, dramatic and unique, Rainbow Six: Siege feels and plays unlike any other shooter on the market. It's not perfect but it can be great fun. We just wish there was more of it.
What Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege lacks in content it makes up for in intense, fast-paced, heart-pounding action and tight gameplay. If tactical multiplayer is your thing, there may be none better. If not, though, you'll likely find the experience to be a bit bare bones.
When it all comes together, Rainbow Six Siege offers some of the best multiplayer action you'll experience this generation, but the anaemic content and lack of a cohesive single player campaign mar what should be one of this year's best shooters.
Rainbow Six: Siege is an intelligent and quality shooter that allows for varied approaches. It is, however, unfortunately held back by repetition, server issues and a noticeable lack of variety. Fans of the genre should definitely look into it, and be mindful of the fact that lots of free DLC is planned, but not everyone will fall in love with its design.
Rainbow Six: Siege blasts through conventions with a fresh take on tactical shooters.
Rainbow Six: Siege is one of the better tactical FPS experiences of the year, even with a smaller content offering than most. Microtransactions and limited custom options can muddy it up, but if you enjoy the core gameplay loop, there's a lot to enjoy here for the multiplayer-minded player.
The lone multiplayer mode has great promise, but technical shortcomings need to be ironed out. Single-player fans will be disheartened by the lack of meaningful options
While lone players are left cold, and hit detection can be inconsistent, the new tactical environmental destruction and tense atmosphere make for a fierce and focused multiplayer experience.
Rainbow Six: Siege präsentiert sich wie erwartet als großartiger Taktik-Shooter mit leider einigen Schwächen in Sachen Umfang, Langzeitmotivation und dem Matchmaking. Der kurzweilige Spielspaß ist auch sehr stark von euren Gegner und Mitspielern abhängig, daher empfehlen wir den Titel eher als vollständiges Team oder sehr Frust resistenter Team-Spieler eine Chance zu geben. Die taktische Kompomente von Siege überzeugt durchgehend und ist auch der Hauptgrund, warum sich der Titel von den meisten Shootern auf dem Markt stark abheben kann.

Rainbow Six Siege offers a very different FPS experience. It doesn't rely on bombastic set pieces and ceaseless, mindless action where players respawn immediately and everyone has Wolverine-like regenerating health. Instead, this is the cerebral shooter, the one that asks you to view the map layout, determine the best plan of attack, and execute with pinpoint precision.
Rainbow Six Siege is both exciting and disappointing. Finally a realistic team-based shooter but it doesn't feel like a full priced game and is marred by microtransactions. If your game is light on content compared to previous entries in the series and you still put in microtransactions, you are going to annoy the fan base, and if they are anything like me, assume all you want to do is milk players of their cash. That aside, there is a great base game here but it's just not enough.
Rainbow Six Siege delivers on its promise of tension, tactics and teamwork, but it might not be worth AU$70; there are bugs both big and small that need squashing, there's no server browser, and connection errors are too common. There's something else to consider, too: PC players have been abandoning multiplayer-only titles in record time this year.
A multiplayer tactical shooter with a lot of potential but still a bit 'sour to be enjoyed in every way. An honest advice? Play it only with trusted friends.

The biggest problem is its Rainbow Six Siege alarming shortage of initial content. Right now it looks more like a demo of himself

Rainbow Six Siege is a thrilling asymmetrical tactical FPS that unfortunately suffers from technical issues and frustrating instant deaths.
After the long wait, Rainbow Six Siege half-delivers. The gameplay is tense and satisfying, but its multiplayer-centric offering and pay-to-win setup is disappointing. If you're into solo narrative experiences, move right along. If you're into hyper-competitive tactical PvP, this is the game for you.
Intense and a refreshing change of pace for a shooter, but only if you have the right team beside you.
Ubisoft Montreal could have made a bold, brave statement as to what a hardcore, competitive multiplayer shooter should be all about. For all the joy of its exceptional gameplay, Rainbow Six Siege is suppressed by a lack of commitment to what makes it great.
Siege reminds players that Tom Clancy's original game series can still earn its right to fight alongside other modern competitive shooters.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is definitely a different game, where your actions must be well thought out, where planning, strategy, communication and coordination between your team members is vital. You will be involved in battles full of adrenaline and tension every moment, where victory will not take the one that pulled the trigger first, if not the one that better plan his battle
