Re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2 discussion

on the "realistic" difficulty, what is different about it rather than being killed quicker like with one shot? does the AI react better? shoot with more accuracy? etc. etc.?

To me they seem "smarter."

I was playing on the Junkyard level, and on Casual you can shoot a guy, then go down the ladder and just sit there as they all come down the ladder you just went down.

On realistic, I shot the guy and went down the ladder to see if they would still follow. One did, and then I heard a person coming down the ladder. Look and there is no one there...figure it was nothing. I hear it again and again, and start getting confused because there is clearly no one coming down the ladder.

I then turn around, complete forgot there was another ladder on the other side of the hall and there are three or four guys standing there and they all open up and light me up.

I've gotta hit some TH with you guys! I'm almost done with the single player myself, and it's been awesome! Just tough fitting in time for this, The Show, and having a life all at the same time lol

I'm up for T Hunt whenever.

To answer the question from a couple posts back, on Realistic, you only get two spawns. I think you get more than that on other difficulties.

The AI is just a lot smarter and way more deadly. You can't leave yourself exposed.

I love the Terrorist Hunts on Realistic setting. Great, great 4 player co-op action. I managed to get through all of them with some buddies on the low density. I think we are going to jack up the density and give them a go. One of the maps was extremely difficult to get through. I forget the name of it, but it's a housing development that is unfinished. It took several hours to complete, and we breezed through basically everything else.

You're thinking Murdertown. I hate that place.

The problem I have is shooting on the move as the crosshair disappears and I can't tell where I am aiming. When I come across a player that is moving and shooting he has no problem taking me out . Is their a technique or a point of reference when shooting on the move?

I honestly think it's just something you get used to over time...it's to simulate real life, where if you're running you don't have that pinpoint accuracy

It seems though when I come across someone that is moving while shooting he can take me out with just a few shots like their was no effort. I guess it will take some practice but any pointers would be appreciated.

Are you talking about online play or single player??

Regardless, if you drop into a crouched position, the aiming reticle will stay on the screen the entire time. I believe it stays on the screen even if your moving, although you will be moving at a much slower pace.

Hope this helps

I know this isn't very useful, but practice, practice, practice. You'll get it sooner or later.

Murdertown, that's it. What a pain. My buddies and I went through almost every map in just a couple of tries, if that much. I remember the refinery being tough, but once we figured out the right route on the map, it was a snap. But Murdertown took 2-3 hours to get.

Murdertown and Oil Refinery are definitely the two hardest on realistic. Theater was also pretty hard, I thought. But that might be because my disc freezes up every time I go the second floor of that level.

Damn, I hate the shotguns

Not only do I lose a very high percentage of confrontations with someone who's using a shotgun, but when I go to use one myself, I CANT !!!!

I don't get it..........it takes me on average 3-4 shots with a shotgun to get a kill. With that average, I'm the losing the majority of the battles against guys using an automatic.

I've tried equipping the shotgun with a laser sight and that doesn't help...........VERY FRUSTRATING!! I'm an older gamer, but I know my aiming isn't that bad.

you have to be close to them to be effective. I was tired of being killed by them so I started using one myself.

Yeah I understand that, but it doesn't explain why guys are dropping me online with shotguns (single shot) at a fair distance away.

It's become a mystery to me
