Rainbow 6 vegas 2

[Ferret]

anyone got this/going to get it? The first one was great.

Got it yesterday for the 360.
It's pretty much the same really except you play as a different character that was doing missions during the same time in Vegas making it all connect and thus making the whole terrorist operation alot bigger then in the first part.
Anyway as I said, the game it pretty much the same. Some new weapons, you can now sprint for a few seconds and you now gain exp offline and online.
So if you like the first part then you will like this.

I picked it up earlier and don't think it's that great. Almost identical to the first one which was old when it came out making this seem ancient. I have no idea what is going on with the story, I just run around shooting people and finding bombs.

Multiplayer still has the stupid method of finding a match which always ends up laggy and impossible to play properly plus none of the old maps are still there so I have no idea where to go. I'm gonna stick with CoD4.

Yup. Pretty much yeah. Kind of funny how some mercs have exactly same speech lines that they have in the first one.

Well, I find the story easy to follow. It's just that the storytelling lacks something to get your focus on it, some kind of way. Maybe giving more information out for the player, or something similar. Though it doesn't help in case where the story itself isn't that interesting.

Have you been playing where it gives you three green dots, and it still lags? You can always just host games yourself, that should get rid off the lag for you.

Which character do you play as?
Any standouts among the new weaponry?

[TB666]

You play as Bishop a man/female(depending on choice) that is hunting terrorists in Vegas at the same time as the other guy and then as the plot progresses you find out that it's all connected.
I haven't unlocked all the weapons yet but I like a weapon that is called M483 or something. It's a nice assault rifle that is both deadly and accurate plus looks cool.
However I hope to unlock the L-85 soon

I have given it another go and found it much more enjoyable. I think I didn't follow the story as I've only played campaign on co-op and it probably leaves most of it out, plus I never listened to the annoying guy talking.

For multiplayer I make sure that there are 3 green dots and less than 10 players and have gotten into much better games. Hosting is still pointless though as no one ever joins unless I have someone else to host it with.

Played it on both the 360 and PS3... prefer 360 as you can log in as your profile, not just guest.

Mindyou Army of Two looks more in line of a co-op game from the ground up (mind you a little bit more hollywood/max payne to it).

Vegas 2 seems to play smoother with better detail on the 360.

It is kind of cool that your style of play will get you better rewards for that style. I really need to work on assault. I get about 7 times as many points in Marksmanship then Assault.
