Ubisoft to Unveil New Rainbow Six Game?

Ubisoft just released its E3 schedule here.

ASSASSIN’S CREED UNITY

A new Assassin, a new era. Assassin’s Creed Unity has been built from the ground up as a next-gen game, offering a new way to experience the venerated franchise. Set during the French Revolution, Assassin’s Creed Unity unfolds during a time of unimaginable terror and unprecedented turbulence – the perfect backdrop for the ongoing battle between the Assassins and the Templars.

FAR CRY 4

Far Cry 3 was the top-rated shooter of 2012. How do you possibly top that? By going even bigger. Far Cry 4 is set in an entirely new area – a massive open-world in a Himalayan region known as Kyrat. With a new weapons, vehicles, wildlife and more, Far Cry 4 will be the most immersive and expansive game in the series ever.

THE DIVISION

New York is in the middle of a devastating crisis. Thrown into chaos by a bio-terror attack and now in full lockdown, the city has only hope: a group of sleeper agents who must now spring into action. This open-world action-RPG combines the authenticity of a Tom Clancy game with fast action, strategic teamwork and intense exploration.

THE CREW

Get behind the wheel of this revolutionary action-driving game. The Crew delivers a massive open-world United States, full of highways, alleyways, dirt roads and more. Join up with others to take on challenges, or go solo and explore the countryside in a game populated by other real players.

AND MORE…

Valiant Hearts: The Great War will be at the show, along with other Ubisoft titles. We’ll also have special guests at the Ubisoft booth throughout the show.

Someone on GAF is claiming that a new Rainbow Six will also be unveiled at the event (here). Take it with a grain of salt. So what do you guys think of this? Personally I just can't get remotely excited--the games have nosedived ever since Ravenshield. Even though Vegas 1 and 2 were decent in their own rights, they just paled in comparison to Ravenshield. Any chance that this new Rainbow Six will be a true to form tactical shooter?

did they ever say what happened to the rainbox six game they announced years ago and completely ignored?

I'd be okay with that.

I'd also be okay with another Future Soldier. That game was good fun.

Vegas 3 please.

Want to see more from Valiant Hearts

Canned more than likely.

Bought it, never played it. Some deals are just to hard to pass.

You should give it a go. I was surprised at how good the mechanics were, and the campaign was pretty enjoyable.

The videos sold me on the game. I'll give it a go once I'm finished with Mass Effect.

Cool beans.

Hmmm, so no one wants an actual tactical shooter instead of a third person run and gun with the ability to turn invisible? Fucking a. I am never gonna get a Swat 4 style game ever again am I?

Never.

Rainbow Six died with Vegas. Gears of War with terrorisms. Waste of time.

nope..its a crying shame.

As long as it includes Terrorist Hunt, I'll be there day 1.

Like I said, Vegas 3 please. First two are so good. Way better than Rainbow Six 3.

That would be good, but I hope Ubisoft will bring back the original roots for the series.

No seeing through walls please!

It will be developed for consoles in mind and attempt to be a Hollywood movie.

Shitey poo.

I still have to play that as well. @Animal-Mother bought it for me last year. :D

expect alot of bullet time effects

If its anything like the Vegas games id rather give it a miss.

I highly doubt it would be anything special

rainbow six are garbage games anyway. give me a new splinter cell the last game was amazing. future soldier was ok so i wouldnt mind that either

I want to know who is hosting the Ubi conference.

GAF was saying it'll be Aisha Taylor (is that her name? the black woman from before).

I hope they make it more like COD with perks and scripted set pieces, to satisfy SNIPER/uninspiredcup.

I'm not too sure what game you are referring to other than maybe the division... but you can turn invisible? Also, do you really think 1st person shooters are MORE tactical than 3rd person? lol... just no if that is the case.

WUT????

I think you know what he's talking about.

Keep it veiled Ubi, no one wants to play shit. Besides, they're going to show more, interesting games than this pile of turd.

maybe they should focus on a couple of games at a time

-I am referring to Ghost Recon Future Soldier, which was pretty much identical to a typical TPS, but with the ability to turn invisible.

-I could give a shit less if it's 3rd of 1st person, although I think Rainbow Six games should be first person given that historically that has been the case.

This is a tactical shooter:

This is not one:

btw. I really really recommend going back and playing Swat 4. It was made by Ken motherfucking Levine and Irrational Games. It's soooo fucking good.

What in the hell are you talking about?

Are you not agreeing that 3rd person shooters are more tactical than 1st person shooters? That is funny if you do... However, I have no clue what he is talking about... I have not followed ANY of those games that closely, and the Division is the only one of the group I KNOW to be a third person shooter... can you turn invisible in that game? I know you can cloak in a game like Killzone but it's a first person shooter and not made by the same company or being discussed... so please, enlighten me, because now I am wondering what the hell YOU are talking about.

*edit* Sorry, perhaps he (and you) are saying instead of getting a good Rainbow Six we are getting a third person shooter with RPG elements? Is that what I am missing?

Still doesn't change the fact that I feel 3rd person is much more tactical though...

been a long ass day.. just bare with me if the point was clear and I just need to get some sleep... lol

I would generally agree with that. Third person views allow for better situational awareness. What I am saying is that we'll get a Rainbow Six game that bears little resemblance to the old tactical FPSs of old like Ravenshield or Swat 4. I am assuming the devs would use the excuse "oh, but kids today don't want that kind of experence." BULLSHIT!!! My fucking step brother and his kids visited my family recently and his nine year old son fucking loved Swat 4. He was on my computer playing the hell out of anytime he wasn't outside swimming in our pool. It's not the kids that are the problem, it's the fucking lazy adults that just want to breeze through all their games for their shitty plots.

Ah... yes.. Now I see what you and the other guy are referring to. Sorry.. like I said just been a long day.

Anyways... yes I feel you. I waited FOREVER for a true sequel or game like SOCOM 1 or 2. Now that it is finally coming it seems surreal.

I was the one not making much sense so I apologize to both of you... and by the way I couldn't agree more with your last statement! Those old school FPS's were MUCH better than the crap we get today.

*edit* Just saw the video you posted of Future Soldier.... yeah I own that game... played it for about 5 minutes and realized you could see people through walls (and not in a fun way)... one of the few games I have EVER taken back..

Hell yeah. GRFS was great.

A true sequel to Rainbow Six 3 or gtfo.

The R6 Patriot game?

If so that got pushed back to "maybe" 2015

I really hope it's Patriots and I would love if they return to their Ghost Recon roots on their next entry if one exists.
