Mercifully, teammate AI has been considerably beefed up. The combat system served the original game well, yet there have been subtle, but notable changes since. There are few moments in gaming more satisfying than popping out from behind a door and pulling off a clinical headshot on one of Vegas’ many bad guys. You can issue orders to your squad, let off a volley of blind-fire to kill off any terrorist dumb enough to rush you, or you can snap out and take a precision shot before returning to cover. When Bishop pushes his back to the nearest piece of cover, the camera zooms out to third-person, leaving you with a view of what’s ahead and a number of options at your disposal. In fact, when it comes to claustrophobic indoor gunplay, Vegas 2 actually trumps CoD4 thanks to its excellent cover mechanics.
It’s a shame the developer couldn’t leave Las Vegas, because the actual combat is on par with the mighty Call of Duty 4.
This might seem like an odd criticism, but if you’re buying a game called Rainbow Six Vegas 2, you’d expect a few of the famous landmarks to make it into the final product.
