Remake and Sequel please!!

guys this there is bugs sounds guns can you fix this

great old school fun. holds up great in 2025. use it as break from ready or not, six days in fallujah and zero hour!

Peak R6.

the best rainbow six money can buy, this and Vegas 1 are and will always be my favourite. For its price and game play its worth it!. the graphics still hold up and is one of my favourite tactical shooters ever. 10/10

Best rainbow game

it is a great game even know it was made in 2008

If you loved playing this on console, do not buy this out of nostalgia. There is no controller support and even through the game says you can use a controller, you can’t.

Unless you want to use crappy mouse/keyboard controller bindings through Steam input, let it go. I am completely angry about this purchase and it isn’t worth the money.

A old school fps that holds up well, very fun if a bit out dated but worth a play.

Cant play with friends, audio bug the game is dead.

i love throwing c4 (nitro cells) at my friends

great game!

terrorism on the terrorists

feels like breaking bad

yeeee

Player first time in 2025, story on Realistic mode. The gameplay may seem a bit funny in this year, but it's still legendary game.

Only mentionable con is random bot spawning in Bot hunt mode. For me it's kinda unplayable because it lose all the strategy when you look to left, then to right, and then to empty corner behind you just to find that bot appeared here from nowhere.

An absolute beast of a game for its time, high nostalgic value, only 10$ too

Top-tier tactical shooter that still holds up.

.

Classic tactical shooter.

Works right out of the box. About 6.73 GB on my system, so fairly small install size. No pre-requisites unless you want to do multiplayer. Graphics options don't really do much since the game is not the best looking in the first place. Might gain a few frames turning options off if you are at or below minimum specs. No crashes so far on my system.

Mainly purchased for T-Hunt nostalgia. Nice to have a tactical shooter where you can just tweak your preferred difficulty settings, load in, shoot stuff at your own pace and not really care about much else. It's not the prettiest looking thing, but the gameplay is honestly what matters. Campaign/story is kinda dumb in my opinion. It exists, but I wouldn't buy the game just for that. Some of the missions can be a chore due to how they are designed and not representative of your skill, so don't worry. Just dumb design decisions.

This is mostly focused on the T-Hunt side of the game, but general gameplay is simple. It's a shooter with tactical elements such as rappelling, taking cover (first person switches to third person), shooting down doors, etc. Your loadout (in T-Hunt) is two primaries (a mix of rifles, sub-machine guns, light machine guns, and shotguns + a secondary (handgun). You also get a selection of basic 'tools' such as grenades, smoke and flashbangs and of course night vision/thermal goggles to help you navigate dark areas and see enemies through smoke/otherwise respectfully. There's a nice selection of down-to-earth firearms, if you care about those. Got the standard counter-terrorist loadout with iconic pieces such as the MP5, P90, Sig 552, AK-47, SPAS-12, SR-25, FAMAS, G36C, and lots more. All can be unlocked through gameplay, which is a nice incentive to keep playing the mode.

A.I is generally regarded as fairly stupid, but there are moments where you can get swarmed and die easily due to their ability to flank and hit hard. Enemies do rush you at times and it can catch you off guard sometimes. Again, this is mostly based on how the enemies behave in T-Hunt.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is also neat in that you can unlock cosmetic items for you character, all completely unlockable in game. Like the firearms, there's a nice selection of armor, clothing, helmets, paint/camo for said cosmetics, and eyewear. Really practical stuff that makes sense to wear in the given scenario as well as some more 'fun' stuff. Armor also isn't just cosmetic, but affects movement speed and how much damage you can absorb (heavier = more protection/slower movement, lighter = vice versa). Really cool mechanic that doesn't seem to be popular nowadays where all armor is cosmetic (like the newer Ghost Recon games for example).

Highly recommend Rainbow Six Vegas 2 if you can get on sale. I paid about $2.49 on sale. I'm fairly biased since I used to play this game a lot back in its heyday, but it does have a few drawbacks due to its age. It's an affordable tactical shooter that isn't the end-all-be-all obviously, but it has its charms/merits when stacked up against more 'modern' projects of the same genre. Great first stop if you've never played tactical shooters before and want to get your feet wet before hopping into more modern offerings.

When Ubisoft WAS Ubisoft.....

One of the most nostalgic and greatest games I’ve ever played.
God Almighty, I almost weep when I think of this game. My best friend and I had so much fun with it. The customization was incredible, the campaign was a blast, and the multiplayer was unforgettable.

Back when the only games dominating consoles—at least on the online PvP side—were Call of Duty, this game stood out like a gem. If you’ve never played it before and decide to try it today, I’m not sure if you’ll have the same experience I did as a kid, but I promise you’ll still be impressed by the game overall. I highly recommend playing it with a friend (if you still can—I'm not sure if the servers are even up anymore).

Rainbow Six: Vegas 2, I miss you so much.
Ubisoft, the only game that looked like it had the soul and potentialq to match this one was Rainbow 6: Patriots. Please, just reboot that project and give us tactical gamers something like Vegas 2 again. You can keep milking Siege all you want, but give us something with the heart and gameplay that Vegas used to have.

Sorry Vegas 2, you were a great game but I don't own you so...

Aim... for their leader!

Its simply a shame what they did to the Rainbow Six series with Siege. They practically ruined it and turned it into Call of Duty Siege.

Rainbow Six Vegas 1-2 was peak gaming. I miss those days. I will always love this game.

A good story/terrorist hunt mode too.

Awesome!

A classic Ubisoft Game !

Steam deck support pls

Not as good as the first one but still had a lot of fun with it the second last mission had me feeling like a tactical genius. The Las Vegas vibe the first game did so well felt completely missing from this game,

A timeless classic. Almost 20 years old and still holds its own. A nostalgic reminder of when gaming was focused on the player and not their pocket. This game was ground breaking at its release and still offers some features unseen in modern AAA games. The perfect blend between the run and gun fun of arcade shooters with some of the challenge and team mechanics of modern realistic/sim shooters. It's old and it was made for consoles, it has some quirks, but overall 10/10. The only compliant is that the online servers were shutdown so we can't play this masterpiece with friends.

Good game but sometimes the ai feel like they have aimbot and one shotgun shot can sometimes kill you even if its from across the map and your teammates sometimes just randomly become lobotomized and will just stand there getting shot without firing back and will not accept your orders to move them into actual good cover also the fact enemies will not shoot you directly if you are in cover but if you are standing out of cover and try peaking a corner like that you get instantly headshotted from 100000 miles away from an enemy who wasn't even looking at you and other times the enemy ai are somehow too slow to react it just feels scripted but when you play the game a bit slower and use your ai team to distract enemies you should have enough time to kill them before they shoot you

nice

Rainbow Six: Vegas 2...
Even though this game is stupidly old, its still objectively the best Rainbow Six game out there.

-Graphics are not bad for such an old game, the charm is still very prominent.
-Customisation is seriously incredible, so many different weapon types, armour types etc.
-Campaign is well written, action packed and varied.
-Terrorist Hunt is great and easily re play-able with tonnes of maps.
-Unfortunately the multiplayer is unpopulated today, but what can you do considering this game came out in 2008.

although, the friendly AI can be slightly dopey at times.
To be honest, i'd say that is my only complaint.

Quick reminder that this incredible game is 17 YEARS OLD and still knocks it out the park in terms of game play and enjoyment.

If you are bored, buy this game ASAP.

Still the best R6 Game ever made

This game is fantastic! One of the best Tom Clancy games made imo

I have spent countless days and nights playing this way back on the Xbox 360 so I will always have a soft spot for this game since it was the very first game I ever played online. Was so much fun, it is such a shame its not supported anymore and the servers are shut down.

RIP R6 Vegas 2

this one was meant for consoles but it still holds up
good character and loadout customization for the era, and the multiplayer was fun

Considering its like 16 yrs old now, still holds up very well, minor bugs but nothing that makes it unplayable.

bought it solely for nostalgia

The amount of work required to get into a co-op game, paired with the terrible netcode and multitude of bugs, makes this an unfortunate not recommended.

YEP! put STUPID hours in this game back on 360 and it is just as awesome now as it was 15 years ago. controls translate fairly well on pc (if you ever played on console) and although they are not like most other shooters, it works with a short adjustment period. IMHO, this is one of those games that embodies the "classics never die" idea...

sadly, it also serves as a reminder of how far ubisoft has fallen. had this game been made by modern ubisoft, you could expect a good $500+ worth of micro-transactions with the ABSURD amount of cosmetics you can unlock by just... PLAYING THE GAME!

Still a fun game though. if you are an old nostalgic fool yearning for the "good old days of gaming" like me, this is one of those games that still holds its own. If you havent played it... how big was the rock you crawled out from under? joking aside, its well worth the price of a cheap coffee. there are some mods out there to clean up the visuals, i haven't tried em yet but if the visuals are an issue, there is that route. and id say the gameplay is unique enough to warrant a try since i havent seen too many of these "slow and methodical tactical shooters" type games out there.

The only bad thing about the Single player is you don't get any time to chill out!
It's exhausting at my age!

8/10 Would Recommend when on sale.

Enjoyable but not great

no controller support at all, some of the dumbest ai teamates ive ever seen. Your teammates will take all the time in the world to go to the cover you told them to then they will kill 2 enemies and get downed 2 feet within each other while enemies only shoot at you. The armor in this game is so useless, whats the point of having armor if you die in 2 hits anyway. Enemie shotguns are broken. You will die out of nowhere from some dumbass with a shotgun that can instakill you 50 feet away. your fov is fixed at 60 with no way to change it so your character can see next to nothing at all times and night vision makes it even worse. This game is so brutal that you are guarrenteed to die 5 or more times each level. i hate this game so much but at least its not siege.

get multiplayer back up :cryingskullemoji:

I got this game because i had 3€ left over in my wallet and the game was on sale for 2.49€.

(skip the next part if you don't care about me ranting about the game and my experience)

I didn't expect much from it since it's a really old game by now and the online servers have shut down. I started playing and at first i hated the FOV but i got used to it. As i kept playing the game i started realizing how great it was, sure it had some things such as the ropes twitching uncontrollably but who cares? I died multiple times while playing but every time i died i learned where to go, where to shoot and where to throw grenades. I got to the final level not knowing the game would end, when i saw "THE END" on the screen i was devastated since my experience felt so short. As the credits started going in front of me i just stared at it, thinking about all the best parts and how much fun i had.

Overall this game is a work of art, online or not. I recommend you get this game even if it's not on sale, since it has a great story and great features.

10/10 Will play again in the future.

I actually finished this game faster than the first one but I still think it was just as good if not better. They did gamify it a bit by adding points when you get kills but still a classic. 10/10

played this ever since i was 16 years old classic game had it on xbox now i got it on pc love this game

if ya know you know

Erdal Kaya The Game 2: Electric Boogalo

Rainbow six is an great shooter game with loads of action

The story is great, some missions can be hard but if you have played it before on ps2 then you should know what your doing here.

i wish this was remastered so the graphics can look better.

The best feature would be the voice control, you can order your men with your voice like to open doors and throw a grenade at some enemy.

Controller support is not supported, but if you can enable steam controller support its very good, not the best input as the camera control is very fast and needed to be turned down, overall this game is not to be missed

8/10

Liking R6V2 for the story, plot, and tactical gameplay: 👎
Liking R6V2 because you can shoot terrorists: 👍
