I am like 95% sure the game spawns terrorists outside the house once you blow up the doorway. Just feels cheap to have them come out of an area that they clearly werent in a few seconds ago.

What a damn shame what this franchise is coming to after the fantastic Rainbow Six Vegas. Im a huge fan and i wont be buying. Its unacceptable to me to buy a 60$ game with only a bare-bone MP with 10 maps and an average coop. Terrorist hurt isn't as fun as it was in Vegas, AI is stupid as hell. So disappointed. How the mighty have fallen.
Ubisoft gonna Ubisoft.

Blame it on so many people who don't bother with single player and just go into MP. They probably saw the numbers/stats and decided it wasn't worth investing in a single player.

Then how is it that with that mode completely left out of the game, i still only get 10 maps and a shitty AI for coop? Seems to me like this is not a very good team working on this game. Definitely not the same one as the one who worked on Vegas.

Me, as a main Single Player camaping player, honestly don't see the issue with some games being released only with MP.
Lets be honest here... People who do not enjoy MP don't even bother buying Call of Duty or Battlefield for example. And those who enjoy MP do not buy these said games for the campaing, since theyre mostly shit and was added just to fill that "requirement".
If they intend to release a game with a trully good campaing and MP, that is awesome! But if they intend to make a MP focused game, please, don't waste resources with a forgettable and totally uninteresting single player mode just to say the game is shipping with both contents.
I confess I'm not aware of their plans to the MP though.

I guess its just the map size. in vegas you start at one point and progress through a pretty large map. And it just feels more like a co-op adventure. (if that makes sense)
with siege, it just felt quick. get in 5-10mins later mission complete
Idk if im explaining this properly

I dont have a problem either, but the price should also reflect that and i dont mean 10$ less. If im going to pay full price for a MP only game, then i rather have the whole package. Why would i even bother paying otherwise. I feel like im getting half a game and im paying the same price that im buying Halo5 for and that has everything but the kitchen sink. Not acceptable.
Edit: And more importantly, im getting a half that isnt even that good. AI is terrible in terrorist hunt, graphics are meh on console, 10 MP maps... Wheres all the content if they dont have to concentrate on a SP component?

Ah right. Yeah i hope there will be bigger maps too. Now it's basicly the size of "the villa". But there were much bigger mapsizes in the Vegas Thunt games. We've seen three maps now, right? They should have bigger maps. I agree.

I'd have a hard time believing the Rainbow Six audience cares more about multiplayer than campaigns, by the numbers. I find it easy to believe that Ubi would like for that to be the case though.

It already looked like an insult to the first two games, so I was never in. This doesn't help.

Yeah, but I think if we go by Halo 5 we will have only frustration. I can't think of many popular games that has a top notch campaing and multiplayer as Halo does. Most of them focus on the SP experience with a forgettable MP mode, or the opposite way.
I mean, they definitely could ship it with a decent campaing and add value to it. But I'd rather to see them focusing in a special MP mode, that's really fun to play, and that would be enough for me to pay full price. Just like it seems Dice is doing with Star Wars Battlefront (it seems an awesome MP game to play, what imo is perfectly fine to sell for 60 dollars as long as it has enough content for its price).
Problem is that I'm not aware of Rainbow Six news. So I honestly have no idea if the game feels good enough for a MP only game... if that's not the case, yeah, you're totally right to complain, besides the issue is actually beyond it not shipping with a SP mode (after all, the big issue is the MP not being even as good as it should).
Yeah it's 30.

well, at least you gave it a fair chance.
The beta had some great gameplay modes. But i agree that i will miss a good single player campaign like in the Vegas games.

Welp! I'm not buying it then. It needs to be $40 then.

Eurogamer have posted a video saying that R6 Siege is a 'great single player game'.
Just watching it now:

Edit: There is a single player defend mode which looks crazy.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
But she is In the game. You hear her an okay amount of times.
Lol not having a SP campaign is not a controversy. Plenty of games do it. Ubisoft have been pretty clear with the advertising of this game. The focus has been heavily on PvP and co-op. Why would you think any different?
Jesus, why is the industry moving towards this new model of either its a colossal single player game with no multiplayer, or its a well designed multiplayer game with no single player element.
Examples
Titanfall - Multi Only
Rainbow Six - Multi Only
Star Wars Battlefront - Multi Only
Fable Legends - Multi Only
It's a worrying trend. Man, Rainbow Six had some of the sickest campaigns, I loved the planning and rostering stage of these games.
I'm out.
Nahh, it's bcome its own thing with games like Witcher, Fallout and Dragon Age.

I dont mind multiplayer only games, but I have enough of them to play such as Evolve, Titanfall, and Battlefront. I really dont need to add another to the mix.
I may pass on this until it gets a price drop.

I don't mind multiplayer only games as long as there is a lot of content.
3 game modes and 11 maps is not enough content for MP Only game.
