    I have really only been doing the pve stuff right now to get acquainted with it, but it feels really good. I am sure the PVP is not quite as slow and methodical.. but we will see

    MH and I had a great time with Siege again last night. Personally I'll be on most nights starting at like 9ish PST for a couple of hours.

    Tonight Don and I were having a so-so time, decent some games, fair on others. Finally ran into a team with 3 high ranked players, our team was up 2:0 when they started playing really dirty. As we went into the 4th round our 3 pugs all rage quit leaving the 2 of us to be obliterated. Going into the overtime match point 2:2 we were down 2 players to their 5. Don says grab a roamer and something about making it painful... we both take off to roam, he catches two with their pants down and rips them up, I pop poison on the objective when they start to cap and rush back to catch their 3rd player point blank in the back with my shotgun, Don takes out the 4th as he storms the objective, the 5th is hanging outside a window trying to shoot Don as I round the corner and pump him full of 12ga buckshot to win the match.

    Safe to say it was the most amazing game I think I have ever had and by far the worst odds stacked against us that I've seen.

    The three high ranked players he mentioned? Two were Plat 4, and the third was Plat 2.

    I have had orgasms less satisfying.

    Ok. Now I want to buy this game. Is it worth the $50 or should I wait till it is on sale?

    Personally, I really do think it's worth $50, but, if you're not way into FPSs or multiplayer, hold off until a sale brings it down to $30 or less.

    I would agree with that. $30 fun more than $50 fun.

    Free to play weekend going on until midday Sunday. I'd encourage you to try it out if you're at all interested.

    Although dated, check out this thread I created if you want more info on it. Headcount: Rainbow 6: Siege

    Currently on a minor sale for $35 (standard). If you're looking to get a higher package skip the advanced and look at gold or complete (both 30% off) if you have the money. If you enjoy the game and can see yourself playing for awhile the complete edition is actually a pretty solid deal (I'd heavily encourage it over the gold edition). It will save you a crazy amount of grind time.

    Recently I've been playing this solo or with MH for a couple of hours most nights. Drop me a line in discord if you have it and want someone to play with.

    A preview of Outbreak gameplay from the Rainbow 6 Invitational. Three player co-op, and the event will run for 4 weeks beginning in early March.

    Blazing Blitz has already met the business end of a nerf bat while still on the test server. Gone before he ever truly steamrolled the masses- he will be missed. Still, now we may all be able to defend without having a panic attack every time the god damn tank engine from hell barrels towards us.

    Outbreak is out, and a damn good time. Gihz, MH, and I slugged through the horde for a few hours last night. Now's a good time to take a look if you've been interested in the game.
