Nature of Coop

This might not be the right venue, but for any of you you have the game are you able to do coop with in the campaign on a single xbox system. Just add the answer in the space alloted thanks : )

Answer : Yes, through split screen. You'll still get the coop achievements. Like online coop though, you'll miss all of the story segments and basically play through the map without actually participating in the story.

save-vegas.com

this site is not a promotional site, as it does not include screenshots or any info about the game. it is a fake teaser site that is not relevant to the article. I had the link removed. Pacman 20:28, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it WAS a sort of ARG since the website was registered to Ubisoft, but it now redirects to the main site. Unicyclopedia 08:32, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Release date

I was just in an EB Games to preorder this, and they say the launch date for PS3 is now January 07 68.81.172.129 05:35, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Gameplay error

The gameplay section stated that the health system in vegas is similar to the ones used in "Call of Duty 2, Halo, and Gears of War." The Halo reference is incorrect. The original Halo had a standard. limited health bar. Halo 2 was the first in the series to have regenerative health. The original Halo DID have a regenerative shield, but the health was limited to seven bars, if memory serves. -- Mellesime 21:17, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The new reference is correct but confusing. Why is Call of Duty 2 the first game listed when Halo 2 used this system before it? The list is almost alphabetical, but Gears of War is clearly misplaced. Fix maybe? -Some guy

Edit but no sudden appearance

Wow, I've just tried editing this whole page, I save and go back to the article. No changes, what is going on? I've made the article "third person", people keep on having grammatical and spelling mistakes in which I have fixed. Someone please edit that, my browser/computer/net does not seem to work...

edit* sorry, after 3-4 minutes, the updates became effective

Weapons

I will be adding the weapon list as it appears on the game's offical website. Please check http://rainbowsixgame.us.ubi.com/vegas/info/weapons.php for reference. Gundam94 19:06, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You missed the MK46. 68.219.117.67 04:25, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I did? Well thank you for adding that. Also why was the turret mounted M249 removed? Gundam94 22:12, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clean up?

This article seems pretty bad. Anyone with experience, would it be wise to put the "multiplayer unlockables" in a table of some kind? It takes up a large amount of space right now.

Also, the plot section seems to be an in-depth walkthrough of the entire game. Perhaps it should be summarized to remove all the unnecessary parts? 68.219.117.67 04:31, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have deleted the multiplyer unlockables for now. If someone ss willing to put them into a (small) table, just do, but I dont think this is of any great inmportance.--ChrisJG 13:13, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Xbox Live Guest

I have been looking for a way to sign a guest onto xbox live with me. Everyone I ask in the game says I can not. But in the book on page 15 it says under Singing in to Xbox Live "Selecting Xbox Live will bring you to the Xbox Live Sign-In screen. If you're playing split screen, you and up to one guest can play on a single Xbox 360 system. After you sign in, each player can edit and modify his or her identity."Deathfromace 06:16, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Small correction

Couldn't help but notice how at the very top of the page, it said "a new Rainbow Six team was introduced." I removed the "Six" and the link to the Rainbow Six page. If this change is incorrect, please change it back and my apologies for the mistake.

Mayor of Las Vegas condemns this game

The mayor of Las Vegas Oscar Goodman has objected to the game's being set in his town. See these articles from GamePolitics.com: [1] [2] Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 02:17, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Weapons?

Why were the list of weapons deleted?69.129.67.253 20:10, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think there should be some kind of weapons list and as I see it there are two ways to do it (1) Make a Prose Section on weapons as suggested by Y2kcrazyjoker4 (2) Make a seperate article on Rainbow Six Vegas weapons and post a link to it on the Rainbow six Vegas article. I am open to suggestions. --DanMP5 ^Talk * ^Contribs 23:44, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No one appearantly has any objections so I am going with making a seperate article and linking it to the Rainbow six vegas article. if anybody has any objections please say so i am going to make the article on Jan. 16th--DanMP5 ^Talk * ^Contribs 04:46, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I originally had already posted the list of weapons and it was deleted at least twice. I dont know why people keep deleting them.Gundam94 22:12, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

'Micropulse bomb'?

Anyone know what this weapon is actually supposed to be? Google brings up some other fiction that used it, but little else. The only clue in the game was a cutscene where someone was apparently exposed to it and had his face melt off or something. --Ted 07:32, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of Weapons

I have re-merged the list to this article. The list was up for AfD, and while I do not think it should have it's own article, I do think a list of weapons in a video game is encyclopedic (as part of the game's article) and inherently verifiable. --Falcorian ^(talk) 18:45, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My best guess is that it's some kind of Microwave weapon. I know the US and Soveits experemented with these weapons during the cold war. I know for a fact the Soveits had one and pointed it at the US Embassy in Moscow. It made a few people sick and I think gave stomach cancer to another. As far as making a microwave "bomb", I dont think that's possible.......yet.

Online Problem

There is a glitch online which makes the player take a few steps and then taken back to where they started over and over again.i think it should be added somewhere in the articlePeacemaker456 18:53, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's not encyclopedic information. Unless it's a notable problem that is documented by a reliable source, it's not worth mentioning in the article. Sounds like it's just a lag problem anyway. --Scottie theNerd 22:53, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
