(Note all this info is from OXM's feature on RS:V)

This game is going to rock. Since it is being made by Ubisoft Montreal (the people who made RS3 and NOT Lockdown) it is gonig to be great.

This is a next gen only game too. No Xbox/PS2 versions.

So far, here is what is known story-wise and gameplay wise.

Terrorists take over Las Vegas, and a new team of counter-terrorists (no Ding this time around) is sent to stop them. It appears this game will be slowed down slightly from the strategy-light RS3. Optical cables to see under doors (ala Splinter Cell) are in, and enemies can be marked on your HUD sorta like GRAW. Your squadmates will on occasion give you advice on how to handle the situation. The scenario is given that your heavy weapons squadmate suggests blowing a door in with C4, while your sniper suggest a stealthier way.

As far as camera view goes... It is first person WITH the gun visible, but when performing some actions such as taking cover against a wall the camera swings to third person.. Voice commands are still in,

The graphics are seriously improved. Compared to GRAW, which is right now one of the prettiest 360 games, it is a LOT better looking. The game uses Unreal Engine 3, so expect great lighting and physics.

Look up some screenshots of it NOW. You will probablly crap yourself.

The PEC system seems to still be around for XBL play. Hopefully they will iron out the flaws present in Lockdown's PEC system.

You've taken time to write a decent post... you should post up a link with pics :)

I'm actually a bit interested in this game. I've just lost faith in the Rainbow Six series as of late. They get good ratings but aren't as fun as some of the older titles in Rainbow Six series.

Bv :hat
 
I've seen the graphics for this game, and they look great. I actually don't care for most of the Rainbow Six games, but I'll probably end up buying this one.
