RB6: VEGAS 2 FAQ
Release date:
US- March 18th
Europe- March 21st
Australia- March 14th
Compaign/Main Facts and FEATURES
- Your teamates Jung and Michael will retrurn, but not Logan. Ubisoft will let you create and customize your own character for the single player compaign this time.
- "Every cutscene will be interactive one through your eyes." "We want all the moral and physical struggles that the real(elite operatives) face."
- Vegas 2 is actually a sequal and pre-equal, the action will begin even before the very first RB6: Vegas, from then it will be parallel to when logan was in Mexico and then run concurently with casiono crawling exploits.
- Expect to fight almost everywhere, and fight more outside this time. The developers said that you will fight almost all around the city, the outside city limits entirely. Also, be prepared to see the sunrise and sunset.
- Better graphics in terms of improved lighting and shaws and smoother framerate. The developer also said that the graphics look really good even in multiplayer.
- The Persistent Elite Creation(P.E.C) will return as I mention above, and its much deeper. In addition, the PEC is evolving in the way you probably wouldn't expect.
- The scoring kills and accomplishments will be similar to COD 4's.
- Your actions in solo play/compaign rewards too. Its called A.C.E.S system:
Your EP points rewards break down into 3 categories:
1. Close-Qarters, fighting in the close combat and earning points, it will reward you with CBQ points and you can unlock weapons like new shotguns
2. Marksmanship, this is for snipers, headshots can earn you lots of points, and those points will award you with new long ranged rifles.
3. Assault, for those who prefer to use many shots will score points to earn new SMGs and etc.
You will also score points from your friend's objective accomplishment's and vise versa.
- The developers admit that they didn't really have the proper military outfits in 1st Vegas, Therien laments and that limitation should be rectified for Vegas 2.
- Sprint Button in confirmed for compaign, they didn't say anything about the multiplayer though.
- There will be bullet penetration(for the compaign, not sure about the online).
- You're character will advance no matter what you do, which means you can rank up while playing singleplayer compaign or a multiplayer match, so if you complete the compaign on singleplayter or regardless, you won't be starting from scratch, samething goes for multiplayer, your gear will also apply to the single player compaign.
- On the multiplayer co-op, you and your friend(s) will get the same experience as you would get playing the single player compaign, unlike in the first Vegas.
- In co-op, player 2 will be suit up Knight, while players three and four will always be Walter and Jung, and player 1(the host) is Bishop and he commands them, this set up also lets to have people at three places at once.
- In co-op, you can jump in the game and jump out and in, means, you can start a solo game, and your buddy can come in and when he leaves you can still continue playing on where you are left off.
MORE ON MULTIPLAYER:
- 11 new weapons, including M16
- 13 total maps, including some classic levels as far back from RB63: RS expansion pack for PC
- 2 new game modes:
Demolition- like Search and Destroy in COD 4, the objective of attacking team is to plant a bomp on a specific traget and make sure it sets off, for defending team is to prevent that from happening and if its planted, to next objective is to defuse it
Team Leader- both teams have VIPs, each objection is to kill the VIP, if the VIP of either team is killed, the team without the VIP won't respawn anymore. VIPs also have extraction points.
- The ability to join games in progress
- Improved Terrorist Hunt: palyer respawns are avaible and the terrorist will respawn more fairly(they shouldn't pop behind you anymore)
- You can now invite your friends into ranked sessions online
- The radar on upperhand corner of your screen has been removed, instead, you get a thermal scan, which brings up a similar picture-in-picture view of the battlefield as the traditional radar but you won't know which bodies are enemies and which are friendly, you'll just know where they're located on the map and only for a short time
- Like I said in the main facts, you will rank up in the same paste of multiplayer as you will in single player, means that if you make your progress through single player, it will transfer to multiplayer when you play it or vise versa
- Shotguns and Light Machine guns will be improved, shotguns will be more reliable(instead of one shot miss and die) and Light Machine guns will be more controllable
More About the Game/Franchise:
- DLC isn't announced, but there's a good chance it wil be there
- This is the last Vegas game, next RB6 will be elsewhere
- The developers aren't sure where the next RB6 will be, but they said they like to put it in the areas where people feel safe, New York City, London or other areas of course. So if you want your favorite city to have mayhem, better cross your fingers
- The last RB6: Vegas, the developers admit that single player was almost none-existant, this time he said it will be about 50/50
- On next RB6, the developers want to improve co-op, bring more areas to explore, pushing eperiences more, more choices, and more
