BS PALADIN Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Very dissappointing and no mention of RSE, just Ubi Paris, who are incapable of making a good GR game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimi Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I hope to be able to give a bit more detail, but give me a bit. Once this video is live I'm going to catch a bit more sleep and head into the office to see what I can talk about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thales100 Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I think it looks good, hope RSE is actually involved in the concept and creation of the new GR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its really starting on the wrong foot. I understand that, but I'd rather share what I can rather than not simply because I know something isn't going to be taken well, lest I than be thought of as not keeping you in the loop, y'know?

NoQuarter Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 A press release promises "cutting-edge technology, prototype high-tech weaponry, and state-of-the-art single-player and multiplayer modes". Here we go again, plus dueling dev houses. Again. Sorry, but does anyone remember when ArmA2OA is scheduled for release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Damn I was really holding out for news on a New Rainbow Six, ie real news not merely confirmation of what we already new. Oh well, at least now we can expect a drip feed of solid information on what's in store for the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrester Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 ah well it's been a long time since so many people read one thread at the same time.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnTC02 Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Oh well, I realise than Kimi is restricted in how much information she can give us, lets hope we get some more news soon. Looking forward the seeing the video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Atoa Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) At last an official annoncement but I guess UBI focus is with the 360 and don't get me wrong I own one but the question is, are PC users going to get a proper version of the game? Oh well prepare for the worst and hope for the best Edited February 9, 2010 by Sgt. Atoa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpreacher Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 If there is any good news out of this. At least its a MP beta coming. Will know long before it comes out if its worth getting. Dont feel right saying i have to play test it first before i buy it. For a GR game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS PALADIN Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 To play test you have to fork out for another full priced game. A game that I am not interested in at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ResidentPSYCHO Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 To play test you have to fork out for another full priced game. A game that I am not interested in at all. I am in a similar situation as you, although I will wait for some reviews first as the interview on xbox live made it sound ok. I wonder if you buy the splinter cell game will it come with a code and if so could you then sell the game on and still access the Beta? I am trying to remember how crackdown dealt with the Halo 3 Beta, I think it used a code and you had to insert the game disc in order to download.

Deadpreacher Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 To play test you have to fork out for another full priced game. A game that I am not interested in at all. LOL, I agree! Splinter Cell:C as bad as it looks it will be my last as like GRAW i had to play it twice to believe in how bad its gotten before i said, rental only until proven otherwise! So since SC:C is must likely my last SC game i buy/rent (may never even rent another SC if its as bad as it seems it is). I mind as well check out GR too if any false hopes arises from all the PR coming up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Discussion about the possibility of beta testing a new game on the console should be continued on the console forums. GR:FS XBOX 360 Forums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteKnight77 Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Remember that SC: Conviction will be released on the PC and X360 only. Ubi shows that it can freeze out a particular platform. They would have a riot if GR wasn't released on the PC and would be a big PR disaster. Didn't I state somewhere it had to be an announcement on GR?

BS PALADIN Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) Reading this blurb ( limited as it is ) we can take it that the MP must be very different from past GR experiences if they need a BETA. Maybe it will feature some form of persistent war mechanic. Edited February 9, 2010 by BS PALADIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Today Ubisoft finally confirmed that the next Ghost Recon title is called Future Soldier. here are the official GRFS graphics... I like the logo, but it might be a little too similar to the GRAW logo for some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
