“There is an expectation that all AAA multiplayer shooters on consoles have some kind of story mode – be it a 25 hour epic story with deep characters, or a tacked on seven hour training course for the online component. This fall, Star Wars: Battlefront and Rainbow Six: Siege will both ship without any recognizable single-player story mode. This has raised plenty of concerns about whether or not these two titles will have enough content to keep gamers happy. -- PlayStation Enthusiast
"Rainbow Six Siege Major Manchester event was a showcase of Siege play and underdog spirit - with a few boos, some boozy chanting and a sweaty atmosphere."
- Stuart Cullen, TechStomper
The new monthly paid subscription for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege has sparked an outrage among the game's community.
Paid subs are coming, and every company is investing heavily in them. From Microtransactions to this type of stuff, the community has been vocal about the issues surrounding ripping customers off, but we are being let down by influencers and journalists in trying to fight off these abhorrent business practices. Influencers and journalists don't say enough about how bad this stuff is. Meanwhile th soft buyers in the general public are getting more outraged by the day and whales are being exploited to pay too much of their own money for pointless crap.
A paid sub is partly why I think Xbox can throw Black Ops 6 on to Gamepass day-and-date and still think of it as "good business."
So PC gaming kills subscriptions model, now they want to bring it back along with season passes, MT, dlc and whatever else they can think of. 🙄
Rainbow Six Siege Year 9 Season 2 Operation New Blood sees the Recruit rework, the introduction of R6 Membership and more.
Sorry I been gaming since snes.. Im old skool
Multiplayer only games are not for me I like a good story and single player
Plus Sometimes I don't like being social
Sure. As long as they don't over-saturate the entire shooter genre with them.
I didn't think that Warhawk would start a trend of AAA multiplayer shooters without a single player campaign
I don't exactly enjoy MP, but there should still be a story mode (and by that I mean a MP story mode).
This is the reason I feel TombRaider comes at a perfect time. If you look at the big picture of all the titles which happens to be predominantly shooters coming out around the holidays TombRaider gives us that Action Adventure single player fix. I will get my shooter fix from HALO and a few weeks later Action Adventure fix with TombRaider. Shooters are fantastic but once in a while you have to switch it up.
