Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Siege the next installment in the venerable tactical first person shooter beta is starting NOW and GameSkinny is giving away beta keys!
Matches focus on tactics and each player picks one “operator” or class. Each operator has their own equipment and weapons that are useful in certain situations. Players will need to work together to complete challenges and win matches.
GSG 9 Operators
This is an example of a German team of counter-terrorism operators.
- Bandit – Uses an electrical device that consists of a car battery wired to an electroshock weapon that electrifies barbwire and metallic surfaces.
- Blitz – Uses a ballistic shield that provides mobile cover with a row of 8 flashbangs that fire to disorient targets when entering or breaching an environment.
- IQ – Uses a wrist-mounted laser to detect electronic devices, providing visual an audio feedback.
- Jäger – Uses an ADS-MK IV “Magpie” that sends out a projectile to neutralize incoming projectiles.
Spectator Cam
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Siege will feature a Spectator cam that lets an 11th person view a 5 vs. 5 multiplayer match. It will have a traditional first-person view as well as a Tactical view, which is an interactive viewpoint that automatically follows a player and see all players, teams, and objectives.
This spectator mode gives players an informative way to watch matches that will give them ideas player tactics and team strategies and allow for live match casting.
