Oddly, Ubisoft has taken the decision to reduce the number of players that can take part in online terrorist hunts to just two. In the last game, it was you and up to three buddies: now it’s you, a mate, and two AI squad mates controlled by the host. This bizarre move seems like foolish pride on the part of the developer (yes, we know your new friendly AI is great, but do we have to take it into multiplayer too?), and is the sort of thing that’s bound to upset the hardcore Clancy-ites. And that includes us, by the way.
This isstill an imminently playable game, but the first Rainbow Six Vegasowned theStrip, setting future expectationsvery, very high.As good as it is, thissequeldoesn'tevolve enough to up the ante andput pressure on the other high rollers.Maybe it'stime for Rainbow Six to step away from the craps table and the roulette wheel while it still has the Kevlar vest on its back.
