Why Did Rainbow 6: Vegas Get AAA Here For PS3?

Seriously, this game's online feature is borderline retarded. I mean no lobbies? No joining friends matches? Laggy and sometimes crashing you out to the XMB!! WTF is that garbage! This game has been out since July and there hasn't been ONE update. And there are so many problems.

I am considering ditching this game and getting the 360 version. If you played both versions of this game can you say that the PS3 owners got the complete shaft on this? Are there lobbies on the 360 version?

For most Ports PS3 almost always gets the **** end of the stick. :lol:

I played RSV from the day it came out until warhawk came out. I crashed out to the XMB a few times, but it doesn't happen that often. Laggy? never had a bit of lag in any PS3 game online. Might want to check your connection. I will agree that the no lobby setup and the only way to get into a friends game is by invite only is not borderline retarded, its just plain retarded!BoD_GOA_French

I don't think the TC has ever played it, I've never had any lag as well on my PS3. Freezing yes, but no lag. Hopefully Sony's Free multiplayer service will get its act together with the free Home upgrade next year.

I haven't played it? GTFOH. The game is laggy. No denying this. It's not my connection because I can play plenty of other games with no problems (Gears of War, Warhawk, Resistance ect.) This game just really disappoints me because it's so fun but it's held back by the devs half assing it.

when the host makes a game there will be a lobby for ppl to join before he/she starts the game. in player matches once the host started the game you can still join in, but cant play until the game is over.

i dont know how big the community will be once halo 3 is out, but from what i seen there are still decent amount of ppl playing. ppl usually send invites to games to ppl they played with before on rainbow even if they arent on your friends list.

i think you should ask around more about it in here along with the rsv boards before you make your decision. rsv is one of my fav. games and i almost ended up buying the ps3 version as well so i could play with some1 i knew who only had a ps3.

Exactly, and that's okay. But what is NOT okay is the fact that THEY know about these problems and the game has been out for months now and they STILL haven't updated it yet. Now that's just plain BS.

Okay, see I have some friends that play it. And I look at there status and it says, "Joinable". So that's 209483092843028 times better then what the PS3 has with this game. Can you joinyour friends like that all the time?

IMO Warhawk>>> R6Vtrizzle_a

No, Warhawk's online setup is better than R6:V's. That's the only problem with the game. If it was setup with lobbies and a simple way to just join your friends matches then it would be in my PS3 most of the time. But when you don't know what game your gettin' into and you don't know how much time is left til you get to play again it's kind of lame. Then when you find a good game the game will sometimes knock you out to the XMB! God this game could be soooo much better.

as long as the room isnt filled or only the private slots are remaining. you can join other ppls game like that as well even with the ppl that were on your recent played list and arent on your friends list. all 360 online games are like that.

That's great, too bad H3 will take a lot of the regular players away. If they just released a patch for the PS3 version then I would be fine.

I don't know. The gameplay sucks, single and multiplayer.

It's not laggy, but then again I have fiber optic. Joining matches takes at least a half hour (75% of the time you join a match in progress with 15-20 minutes left to go....you cannot join the game in progress). I never get into the game of my choosing (obviously), the lobby system is atrocious....it absolutely pales in comparison to the superb design of the Resistance: Fall of Man and Warhawk matchmaking/server list lobbies.

The game is a piece of crap and that's all I have to say about it. The framerate sucks, the aliasing sucks, the gameplay sucks, it's a piece of crap.

I am extremely pissed that all those reviews and all those blind PS3 "fanboys" in the PS3 forums and system wars told me to get it, and even flamed me after I said it was a terrible game with huge issues.

I disagree with the gameplay being bad. The game is amazing but the online structure is god awful and that's why I'm disappointed and considering getting the 360 version.

Are you serious? The gameplay sucks.

DoD: S and CS:S utterly destroy it.

And, referring only to the PS3, I'd take Resistance and Warhawk over this game any day of the week in terms of online and pure gameplay funfactor.

The cover system is terrible, the gunplay is terrible, the gun mechanics are terrible, the squad mechanics are terrible....nearly anything and everything about this game is just ugly and obtuse.
