just wanted to know. because i already have this game for pc, and my only interest for this game on xbox is if it has 4 person co-op. i would be asking this question if xbox.com only tells how many players are able to play on the game *HINT HINT FOR THE MODS HERE AND AT XBOX.COM*

IGN: What multiplayer elements did you want to include in this game, that perhaps never made it to Raven Shield or even Ghost Recon for Xbox?

Max Beland: The first thing we did when we started to choose the game modes was we ran a poll on the Raven Shield website and the Ghost Recon website to know what game modes were played the most. It cam down to something like 40% of people were playing Survival and Team Survival. Then 30% were playing co-op games. That told us that co-op games were really important. That's why out of our five game modes, two are co-op and three are adversarial. We needed to put a lot of emphasis on the co-op because that's not something that every game has. With Xbox Live and the Communicator it just emphasizes it even more.



IGN: The Terrorist Hunt mode is co-op, but it's limited to four human players. Any reason why you couldn't double that number and have eight players hunting down terrorists.

It's mainly for technical reasons. With all of the terrorists in the map, what we wanted to do was make sure we gave the player the best experience. So we pushed the limit in the levels and the number of terrorists and their behaviors. The downside of that is that we cannot have more than four. Just like in the single player, we don't have eight characters we've got four. It's the same limit for both modes.

Bradster, are you asking if it's 4 player co-op for splint screen or xbox live?

Also, it doesn't sound like the question really clearify if it is for xbox live or splint screen. I'm assuming they mean it is for xbox live.

Well how many people can play in one game, total in xbox live???

I thought it was like 8 people in one room, 4 terrorists and 4 CTs.
Kinda hoping there were more but I guess thats ok.

Anyone know how many people total can play in a single room, ON LIVE?

Thats true, Im getting the feeling its gonna be 16 players. So they better give u more ammo than u get on Elite in the demo. OR have any option to get extra mags like in PC.

Ah, 4v4? That sounds fair enough. Anymore than that spells out lag... Good thing I have that 2mb down, now. :D

At www.rainbowsix3.com under features you will see:

"X-Box Live! enabled: join tense multi-player battles online, up to 16 players on tricky maps. Many multi-player modes available (cooperative, survival, team survival, hostage rescue, bomb…) Come and prove you are a man of valour"

So there yah have it up to sixteen...but I know for a fact co-op is only for cause of the IGN preview. And besides terrorist hunt, it will still have the co-op campaign mode just in case any of you were worrying :D

I apologize to everyone, seems the info i read on R6 in was inaccurate.

I got the game a few hours ago, and it does support 16 players. And 4 players for mission mode.

Let me clearify a few things. Only some maps support 16 players, some as few as 8 players.

And yes there is 4 player misson mode..

JJax and i tried out the misson mode and boy was it hard.. :cry:

To those who have played it -
Are there any offline multiplayer modes, co-op or DM? Also did you experience much lag online? How many guns are available online? Can you follow other people once you die? How's the framerate compared to the demo? Thanks.

I believe there is an offline multiplayer mode, but don't hold me to that since i haven't check, but i do recall seeing one.

There was no lag on the servers that i played on, only reason i stated earlier that i was experiencing lag was because someone was downloading something from my server.

There are about 25 primary weapons,15 secondary weapons, about 8 types of grenades in two categories. So you can carry 1 primary gun, 1 secondary gun or grenade, 1 grenade,gas mask etc... and 1 other grenade , mine etc.. so you can carry tons of stuff.

When people die you can follow around only the people on your team in many diffrent modes. First Person Free,First Person Fixed,3rd Person free,3rd Person Fixed. The spectator mode is very cool and they did a great job on allowing diffrent points of view.

The framerate so far has been flawless.
