R6 Siege: Is it comparable to CSGO?

[APrettyCoolWalrus]

I have a good amount of steam money that I can use and I was wondering if Rainbow Six Siege was a good game to get into. I love CSGO and the competitive aspect of it, and I was hoping to find that same down-to-the-wire feeling of competitive play in Siege. I played the betas but felt the game got repetitive and boring. Is it still the same way? Would anyone suggest getting it? 

[Mazeman03]

it's still the same bb just go back to giving gaben money

I have 200hours in it.

I have 357hours in CS:GO

I prefer it to CS:GO. In my opinion it's the same game with modern graphics and generally more fun.

Server issues have been fixed and devs have released a few nice updates with new content e.t.c

 

It's one of those games you never really get bored of.

the movement/style of gameplay is about the same as bf franchise

I have wayyyy over a thousand hours in BF3, BF4, and BFH. Throw in maybe 200 or so in BC2, 100 in Vietnam, and a 100 in BF1942. I'm kind of a big fan of the series, but I wouldn't ever consider BF4 good for competitive play.

I enjoy it, connections can sometimes be brutal. But for game-plays sake and ranked mode, I'd say it's a lot of fun.

 

Not sure how the game will perform for the competitions that are starting next month though lol...

Hopefully you mean Battlefield after they upgraded the tick rates of the servers

I heard about those. Maybe I should see how those go, I would love to see Siege become a team-based eSports game. A CSGO buddy of mine owns Siege, maybe it will be fun to play with him, although he doesn't quite like the game.

I daresay its better but the price is too damn high

[Mr.Meerkat]

as someone who has 1300+ hours combined between all of my accounts in CSGO and 36 hours in r6 siege, I actually prefer rainbow 6 siege, it's more fun to play as it's less competitive (as in actual players that are playing the game) but the ranked ranking system is broken ass...went from gold 4 to copper 4 because I played the game for fun while still dropping 8k at lease per game...jeezus the system is unfair...

Yeah that's the one thing holding me back. I'll get it off G2A or somewhere else when it dips to 40 or 35 dollars.

On Steam it is, but on Uplay its $37. Is there a way I could easily play Siege with my steam friends while on UPlay (since buying the game off steam links you to UPlay anyway)?

They would have a uplay account to play it so just use the uplay thing

Both kinda suck shit to be 100% honest. 

CS sucks because hackers, smurfs, parasites in general

Rainbow 6 sucks because the movement seems clunky, gun sounds aren't memorable, only a few of the operators are actually cool (IMO) basically if you see somebody first it's guaranteed you kill them UNLESS YOU FUCKING SUCK

That being said

Rainbow 6 is fun with friends

CS is fun if you can get into a good game

I think I'm partly to blame for that smurf thing >:)

Anyway, its good to hear that Siege is a fun game, but is it also a game that I can get really good at and learn a lot of tricks?

Oh, is it? That's good, I think I'll save my steam wallet for other things and use paypal for g2a.

I've never been a CSGO guy (or much of a competitive guy either) but Siege is getting me into more competitive shooters, It's a lot more focused on positioning and tactics than CSGO and less so on skill (still important though).  The different operators really make the game special though because as a defender, you have to learn to deal with every type of attacker and as an attacker, you've really got to check your corners and watch out for traps or gadgets that'll blow your position.  Intelligence is also a big part of siege.  the little drone things will save your life.

Having had a bit 250 hours on CS:GO, I personally like Rainbow Six Siege more. In my opinion, takes more tactic than CSGO.

[APrettyCoolWalrus]

Thanks all! I got Siege and played with two friends. I had a good time, money well spent!
