~ Everything u wanna know about R6: Vegas 2 ~ PLEASE READ

R6 Vegas 2 / UbiSoft / March 18 2008

in Vegas 2 there are alot of outdoor battles. no longer will everything be restricted to casino floors so expect to see alot of sunshine in this game.

the AI and terrorists are much more advanced so ur gonna need to be more tactical and they DO NOT respawn in dumb areas like right behind u in terrorist hunt mode.

the main character is not Logan anymore rather a guy named Bishop. luckily ur two teammates Jung and Michael will still be there. no longer do they mindlessly storm a room rather they "leap-frog" in a tactical manner to insure u dont have to heal them so often.

the storyline actually begins before the 1st Vegas. then it follows the storyline of the first one like a parallel to fill in any missing details u missed. then it continues past the cliff hanger ending of the 1st and adds to it.

Vegas 2 is finally adding in a sprint feature that allows u to run for a short time. UbiSoft promises it will be great for moving from cover to cover like Gears of War.

many people will say they stole this from CoD4 as well but Vegas 2 is also throwin in a bullet penetration feature that will go under the equipment section. like CoD4 u'll be able to shoot through thin walls, wooden stairs, sheet metal etc

there is a newonline search engine. now u can join games in progress and invite friends into ranked sessions.

they've added a new way to gain experience similar to Call of Duty 4 in which u get rewarded for different challenges. they nicknamed it the A.C.E.S. system where u are rewarded in three categories: close quarter combat (unlocks stuff like shotguns) and marksmanship (unlocks stuff like snipers) and assault (unlocks stuff like SMGs)

there is a co-op feature for story mode that allows the player 2 to suit up as an all new character named Knight. yes Jung and Michael will still be there. if the host decides to quit u can still continue the mission as well.

i hope that enough info !! ask questions if i missed somethin

big thanks to"HillbilyRockstar" and "JesseAndNikki" and "PacBoy23" for helping with the research and info

Sounds pretty cool.SavageM2

thanks it took a while to make. maybe i'll post some of the awesome pics i hav if the topic get alittle more popular...

R6V allowed you to play as a female... but what? In R6V2 they get more mobility? How is a woman more mobile, that's just stupid that they would make those kinds of differences. In R6V people who used SMGs usually had no armor at all so they could get around faster, but now they're all going to have to make their character female to get that extra edge? If a girl is playing the game, they will most likely make their character female, and if a guy is playing then they will probably make their character male... there should not be any differences. ag1002

no no no srry to mislead u that was just an example. females will NOT be more mobile than males but there will be strategical differences in the genders. it wont be a drastic as more mobility but that was just an example to help u picture it.

calm down, he isn't lying, it makes sense, those would be logical additions to the game, thanks for the info matemackey12345

thank you i am NOT lying about any of this. i have a life and dont need to mess with urs. besides dont any of u get OXM or do any research ?? u can easily google this stuff and u'll find that its totally true. i'm just tryin to make it easy for u guys to read all the facts in one place.

This game will sit in my 360 for about a year without removal lol.jpstill85

i totally agree !! i just wish i could find some good pics to show u guys along with all the good info. maybe gamespot has some... hold on i'll check.

He's already sourced it from OXM and GameInformer. If you read all of the posts, you wouldn't have to make an unnecessary post.

thanks... i was just tryin to help u guys by givin u what i thought was great new info. if u want to know the sources so bad why dont u look it up urself anyway ??

i have a question. i havent gotten to play r6v yet and was going to play it in the near future. would it be worth it to play it or do i even need to at this point?mattg90520

R6: Vegas 1 is a great game and probably in the top 10 games for the Xbox 360 but in a few months i doubt u'll play it. it sounds like R6: Vegas 2 is gonna have all of the 1st games features and more so i'd just wait if i were u.

besides, most gamers are out of cash now from all of the great games that previously released so i wouldnt get Vegas so close to the sequels release if i were u...

No problem Merry Christmas!

You got a point lol. BTW do you knowif this game is going to have like vehicles. mohammad93

srry no i havent heard or read anything about new vehicles... except for the standard chopper that flies u from mission to mission in story mode but that doesnt count in my opinion.

BTW i just noticed, isnt gabe logan even on the psp game syphon filter?mohammad93

i do have a PSP but i have no clue about Syphon Filter... i do know that the main character in R6: Vegas 1 is named Logan Keller though.

Do your stats and rank reset, like prestige mode, and if so do you have a choice?Danold

srry dude i dont know if they've added a "prestige" mode similar to CoD4's yet... i do know they've continued with the ranking system but i dont even know if they've added any ranks much less if ur able to redo them.

i edited all the sources for the info up above. now there shouldn't be any confusion of where this all came from or if its real

also i just realized about 99% of the info i know is in the first 2 posts so if u have any side questions i probably wont be able to answer them...

Lol thx, and yea, anyone who doesnt believe you got 2 choices

1) Check out the links ad feel stupid that the info is true

2) TRY to flame the tc, then just have it backfire, Irecomend choice #1 ;)

as of now, the information is secret other than what my good friend revealed, BTW mib, wanna play up on xbox live?mohammad93

yea totally invite me on Live !! oh and ur right. like i said 99% of the info that i know or that is known by anyone so far is up in the first two posts. UbiSoft was hinting at the M16 making an appearance in the sequel but they definitely didnt leak any other guns... oh and about the equipment OXM did say the essentials like silencers etc would be in R6: Vegas 2 but they didnt say much else srry.

thxneneman
