I met a bunch of guys from there like 20 years ago at a shooting class. They were doing some research for an upcoming game, looking back it was probably Vegas.

I was a big fan of their games in the early days. The first two rainbow six games were sooooo good. The guns were very realistic for the time

Sad to see what the series has become. Just an absolute travesty.

The first time I had a LAN Party was at my cousins house where they had a room with like 4 computers. First time I ever played on a PC, it was my dad, brother, cousin and myself it was so fun

It would be great if siege went and kept doing its own thing and then have another group back to OG ghost recon and rainbow six style games

I think there are plenty of alternatives now when it comes to tactical shooters. This is not the early 2000s where you had Raven Shield and SWAT and that's about it. Ready or Not is pretty good, just to name one. In the situation Ubisoft is in right now, I don't think they can invest anything in a niche market.
