Looks beautiful, but it's obvious that UBI is going to pimp the Raven Shield engine as much as they did the RS platform. Well, actually it's an Unreal engine..

In the end, we'll have a bunch of games with a "tactical" element, none of them anything like the original tactical shooters of Rainbow. That's why I get irked about Raven Shield, it looks just like all the other FPS's, just different content. Nothing that makes the RS series different has been protected, except maybe for the weapon types and the type of uniforms the characters wear. I can download a mod with that for Half Life for free.

OK I'll step off the soapbox.. :)

I agree, Cocobolo, but I also feel that Ubi is taking babysteps in improving the series.  Though now I am satisfied that there is a performance-based reason that they aren't allowing ballistic penetration of walls.

Yes, Infiltration is great.  Been waiting forever for 2.87, though.

It's a cool game Cakie, but it's not a tactical game it's an action game, errrrrrr :P And you have to admit that it's really just a better version of the same type of game that's already flooding the market...
