Hoi, allemaal! Ik ben de gamer_vrouw! (Hi, everyone! I'm the gamer_vrouw!)
Rainbow Six Siege is something to behold, especially on the Playstation 4. In fact, I'm playing this game pretty much every single day!
The premise?
The game follows a team of operators that thwart the operations of a secret terroristic organization. Similar to other 1st-person shooter games like Modern Warfare and Call of Duty, you can fight the bad guys solo, or team up with other players online to do so.
You play as different characters (or what they call "Operators). Each operator has their own abilities, weapons, and accolades. The operators are divided into two groups: Attackers and Defenders.
- Attackers are operators that go into combat with enemy attackers, whether you're eliminating them, rescuing a hostage, or disabling a bomb.
- Defenders are operators that protect a hostage from waves and waves of enemies.
So far, the Attackers I'm currently using are Ash, Thermite, Thatcher, and Sledge. (Well, I really like Thermite and Sledge, because their weapons and grenades are very useful.) As for Defenders, I currently have Smoke - he's my only Defender so far in the game (and there's a reason for that).
Now, the game has various modes, especially in the tutorial section of the game (which helped me a lot when I had first started playing this game). However, the available modes are the following:
- Elimination - Where you eliminate enemy shooters
- Extract Hostage - Enter an establishment (i.e., a house, a building, etc.) to rescue a hostage from the enemies, and take them to the extraction point
- Disarm Bomb - Enter a place and disarm a bomb while enemies are coming at you
- Defend Hostage - Stay with a hostage inside a room, and try your best to barricade the place and defend the hostage from waves and waves of enemies
Of all the above scenarios, I found myself mostly great at the Elimination and Extract Hostage solo matches. Though, being good at the Extract Hostage scenario was a surprise to me, because I never thought that I would be great at that to begin with. I honestly thought I would be the worst hostage rescuer ever - but I've somehow won more solo matches in that mode than Elimination mode! (Can you imagine!)
As for the other two modes, Disarm Bomb and Defend Hostage, those are my weak points. In fact, the way I see it, those two modes are best played with a team, rather than play them solo. In that way, you'll have more than one pair of eyes, as you get ready for enemies to come after you in the game. (But more power to those who have actually won solo matches in Disarm Bomb and Defend Hostage modes!)
So, it's been nearly a month since I've started playing this game, and it's so addicting! I started playing this game on my birthday this past June, and it's amazing to see how great I've gotten at Rainbow Six!
And guess what? I heard that Rainbow Six Extraction is coming soon: January 2022, I believe. I can't wait to check that out soon!
Anyway, back to Rainbow Six!
Until next time, ik ben de gamer_vrouw! (...I am the gamer_vrouw!)
Dag! (Bye!)
