Ubisoft announced that Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege will include a brand-new operator system, and has released a trailer showcasing this new system in action.
Operators are specialists from the world’s top Special Forces units and masters in their respective fields. Each has their own unique expertise which adds a new tactical layer to the Siege experience and pushes team play even further.
Players will put together these operators to create their best CTU (counter-terrorism unit) composition in order to defeat the opposing team.
Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

Isn’t it funny? Tom Clancy, a weaver of great stories. Creator of immersive thrillers that drove us. Reduced to this, to a plethora of derivative games with his most beloved aspect (story) maimed for the sake of online.
If a diabetic, on his way to buy insulin, is killed by a runaway truck, he is the victim of an accident. If the truck was delivering sugar, he is the victim of an oddly poetic coincidence. But if the truck was delivering insulin, ah! Then he is the victim of an irony.
Don’t misunderstand this analogy. In it, Ubisoft is not the truck, it is the driver of the truck, in a rage filled hunt for diabetic people (read great content creators), running over them until you can’t distinguish if you’re looking at a person being run over or a pool of blood. And all of it because it is his job. Hey, it pays the bills I guess.
Yeah it is absolutely shameless… Why put a Clancy stamp on this? It’s the same with the Battlefield series these days; trying to tell more by slapping a known title on there.
EDIT: Dont get me wrong, they may be great games. Not my point.
wa da fock did i just watch is this what we’ve been waiting for it looks bad
What’s interesting to me is how the Rainbow Six name, more so than the Tom Clancy brand as a whole, has been dealt with over the years. The original 3 games were the last true adaptions of Clancy’s actual novel (titled Rainbow Six) and dealt with some of the actual storylines in the book via the campaign missions, and centered around the Rainbow team members (Clark, Chavez, etc).
Coincidentally, the multiplayer of those titles became the first real military shooters that focused on real world weapons and tactics. Co-op was 1 thing, but the team deathmatch versions of those games were huge, and IMO, the beginning of the competitive FPS market, and the inception for all current military FPS’s (which, if you look at the latest CoD mess, is in dire need of a dose of ‘back to basics’ treatment).
Now, it remains to be seen how much of the original story is contained in this title (I highly doubt there’s any), but it’s clearly a case of the people who still hold the rights of the Clancy name trying to find some way, any way, to make some money off it before they sell it. This game looks like it will be a repetitive, all steak and no sizzle, failure purely because there just doesn’t seem to be anything more than what we saw last summer.
