For those interested in early RS3 game info.. here you go!

**Chaotic** · 10-28-2003

Ok so far the multiplayer is pretty sweet.

There are 5 gametypes

Misson
Terrorist Hunt
Survival
Team Survival
Sharpshooter

There are 9 maps 1 downloadable and each map only holds a certain amount of players. 10 total

Airport 1 = 8
Airport 2 = 10
City Street Large = 16
Import/Export = 8
Old City = 8
Peaks = 16
Presidio = 12
Training = 8
Warehouse = 12
Garage is a downloadable map = 10 Don't forget this one.

Finding optimatches is extremely easy and there are tons of servers to choose from.

The aiming is extremely difficult and the gun shakes around like crazy. The movement is very slow but responsive on defualt, be sure to go into your input settings and increase your X and Y axis or you will be moving slower then snail ****.

There are 25 primary weapons about 15 secondary weapons and you can also carry two types of grenades.

EDIT: Damn JJAX was on my ftp server that's why it's so laggy

Also it seems to lag pretty bad in every game i have been in. This looks like one of those games you need to have a kick ass connection to host anywhere above 8 players

BTW this game craps all over GR ....

So far my favorite weapon is the AUG 5.56 with the secondary weapon of Desert Eagle or grenade launcher.

So far this looks like it's going to be the DDC's new game of ownage

YES!! I love Rainbow Six 3, and DDC may have slight competition against me.

But I need to get R63 first....

Few questions if you've played the demo:

Is there more guns and stuff to add to your kit? Like extra ammo, sensors, etc...

Is there adequate room for snipers in the big levels? I was afraid there'd only be a couple big levels with just a few places for snipers to hide.

There's team elimination right? That's all i ever play in GRIT.

**CarGuy** · 10-28-2003

oh yea, and in the demo there seemed to be no way to change the rate of fire (single, burst) is it in the final?

I haven't found a way yet but i also havent looked at the manual so im not sure and everyone im talking too doesn't know how to yet.

**Papke** · 10-28-2003

What about Carguy's first question? I was pretty impressed with the sniper rifles from the demo... are there places from which to snipe, or maps designed to accomodate those who have chosen a sniper lifestyle?

Hopefully the lag won't be that big of an issue, but how bad is it really?

I get the game tomorrow!

**George89** · 10-28-2003

Game..looks...so...good. I cant wait till i get it! But I still dont have XBOX LIVE

**Xbox Owner** · 10-28-2003

Only reason lag was bad is because Jjax was on my Server using up bandwidth and i didn't notice it

, otherwise its running pretty good.

**AlBoogy** · 10-28-2003

Is the game like Ghost Recon in the sense that you can get shot once and your dead? Or is it more like RTCW where you can cap someone like 7 times and they could still be alive? Medics?

**Kortiz** · 10-28-2003

god damn you SAUCE.....I have to wait until November 19th to get this game......!!!!!!!!!

It's 100x's better then GR.

Depending on game type will depend on if it's respawns or not.

There is no medics or anything of that nature and you cant choose the type of solider. It's one solider and tons of awesome weapons.

Random thoughts of R6 By JJaX:

Yeah R6 is the most fun ive had on XBL since it first came out.

The lag wasnt an issue, but im sure you will need a killer Upload to host a big game.

The sounds effects are amazing. The explosions are loud, and scare the hell out of me.

The graphics are like splinter cell.

The rag doll effects are tight. Like if light someone up their bloody body will lean up against walls and junk.

Setting people on fire is fun, with the Grenade launcher with RP rounds. I have a feeling those will eventually be banned on most servers.

Headshots = death

Its cool when you play single player. Your squad talks to you via headset, just like XBL.

Ummm, you can see whos talking in a game, their name pops up in corner.

THe team that actually talks to each other, usually wins. (as in most XBL games)

Team survival owns you.

You can tweak kit restrictions, you can even disable thermal vision etc.

No there arent any heart beat detectors. =[

Sound really helps, because you can hear footsteps.

And dont be a fully auto noob. I watched someone dump a whole clip down a narrow hall and miss my teammate.

When you are eliminated, you can spectate from 1st person and 3rd person. Kick ass!

When the host changes maps, it reloads the lobby. Which is pretty cool. Because once a map is loaded, you dont have to load it up every round.

Press X to ready up.

You dont need to hold the white button to talk

The host can reserve slots for friends, kick people, and launch the game.

Ummm dont forget to download the garage map, as chaotic mentioned.

i only played one single player mission, besides the manditory training mission, and i can already see the replay value. (you can also take these missions online, its so awesome.)

Hmm anything else......Oh yeah, me and chaotic already own.

Man...I'm drooling, though, I'm not too pumped up about the requirement of a kick ass server connection. Why can't more games utilize bandwidth more efficiently like MotoGP and Crimson?

Ain't this the truth.. How many time's was it 3-1 and we ended up winning it for the team

Actually most games i played really didn't lag. The only time they lagged was when someone with a crappy connection joined the game.

Oh btw i didn't see this mentioned, you can also join a game in progress and the host doesn't have to end the game for you to join

**Casper** · 10-29-2003

Dam it, I'm off on Friday, but getting a tooth pulled, so I'll be able to play - MAYBE - once I take the ice packs off. I'll get this game tonight I think, hopefully, and I'll start sharing the uber connection
