Rainbow Six Vegas 2 Q&A

IGN: So no more Rainbow Six Vegas games after this?

Philippe Therien: That's correct. Vegas 2 concludes the story so as far as Vegas games go this is the last. There will be other Rainbow games but they won't be set in Vegas.

IGN: With that in mind what other cities do you feel would make great backdrops for a Rainbow Six game?

Philippe Therien: Anywhere where people are used to visiting or anywhere that's iconic. When you invade that element of comfort people get from being somewhere safe and familiar – that's what makes for a great setting. It's something that Tom Clancy often does – takes a place that feels safe and normal, then he turns it around. That's the cool thing about making games – realistically none of these events will ever happen but it's fun to pretend for a while.

IGN: So there could be a Rainbow Six: London, or maybe one set in New York?

Philippe Therien: Sure, they'd make great locations for Rainbow Six.

IGN: Why did you feel it was necessary to overhaul the shotgun and the light machinegun?

Philippe Therien: They're a lot more balanced now than they used to be. The shotgun is now extremely deadly at close range, but it's very bad at long range. The problem with the shotgun in Vegas one is that if you hit your target you got a kill, but if you missed you were dead – it took too long to reload. That's now been changed to make the shotgun more practical. The problem with the LMGs is that the player had to really struggle to keep it under control, so what we did is cut down on the kickback and make the initial accuracy on the weapon lower, so while it fires at a wider radius it's much easier to control.

IGN: With Vegas 2 completing this part of the series, what would you do if had a clean sheet and create the ultimate Rainbow Six game?

Philippe Therien: That's the question we'll probably be asking ourselves if we do another Rainbow game down the line. We'd probably push co-op even further, maybe add additional online options. I think we've got pretty close to where we want to take co-op but I think there's still room to take it further - pushing the experience even more, adding more choices and including more areas to explore so it's got just as much to it as single-player. As far as multiplayer goes it's really a case of how much we can put in there – maps, game modes, that kind of thing. We always have an abundance of ideas but time is always the key factor.

I want to play that convention center map. It looks like none of the cover is safe from bullet penetration.

The Streets of Vegas 2: Import/Export

We recently sat down with J.P. Cambiotti, the lead designer for Rainbow Six Vegas 2's multiplayer, and got the first details on a few of the new maps. We'll be revealing these new environments over the next few weeks with the first map, Import/Export, kicking things off today.

Import/Export is an outdoor environment set largely in streets flush with vacant cars that can act as effective cover. Players can also venture inside some of the buildings to look out on unsuspecting foes. Some might remember it from Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield and while the map has a few new nooks and crannies in Vegas 2, those who played it before should feel relatively at home. But don't listen to us ramble on, instead we'll let J.P. Cambiotti detail all of the specifics of Import/Export for you. Enjoy.

I remember that map, though most of my experience with it was during terrorist hunts.

Re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2 announced

That looks great, I can't wait. I've been playing Vegas1 and playing it last night made me realize how much I played that game online. Insane...
