![]() That’s not a major ask, but the missions are usually a rote combination of the following: blow up an inanimate object (cocaine cache, equipment), extract and interrogate a high-value target (an assistant, a family member), steal or photograph something (a car, documents), or just kill some stuff. Each province has a boss, and to learn that boss’ identity and draw him/her/them out from hiding you need to complete four to six missions. Until I switched to playing co-op, it descended deeper and deeper into repetition. For the first five or so provinces everything felt exciting. Wildlands’ main issue, however, is poor mission variety. These situations take an already uneven driving and piloting system and push it to its frustrating breaking point. Also, it’s very common for high-priority targets to jump into a vehicle and flee, and if they get too far away you’ll often lose them and fail. And, because the map is so large, you’re forced to spend a ton of time in vehicles to get to locations between fast-travel points. ![]() After 15 or so hours I was able to pilot anything without much trouble, but it took far too long to nail Wildlands’ “feel.” Choppers, in particular, take a while to break in: once you’re cruising, you’re good, but building up to that speed requires a weird dance of tipping the nose up and down and easing up on the throttle. Even on a bone-dry dirt road, some cars and jeeps feel like they’re skidding around on slick ice. Speaking of vehicles, yes, the chatter is true: many of them don’t control well. Wildlands leaves the strategy up to you, and because vehicles and fast travel points are so plentiful, the wide-open Bolivian landscape feels like a land of opportunity, not a burden. In the mountains, with a bit of leg work, you can usually hike to the high ground and assault your enemies from above. Deserts have little or no cover, so fighting from range works well and having an escape vehicle ready is imperative. Areas thick with foliage are perfect for hit-and-run guerrilla warfare. These biomes aren’t just eye candy they have a major impact on how you play. From the get-go, you’re free to roam the entire map, which includes jungles, mountains, deserts, salt flats, lakes, swamps, quarries, and caves. It’s only a limited-time event, lasting four weeks from March 6, but it includes plenty of new maps and missions, as well as loot boxes.“No matter which part of the map you explore, Ubisoft’s in-game version of the South American country of Bolivia looks great. Outbreak, meanwhile, is the new alien zombie-based co-op mode. For more on the new characters, check out our analysis of how Operation Chimera’s Lion and Finka will change the Rainbow Six Siege meta. The counter is that both teams receive a three second countdown after the drone is triggered but before its x-ray vision comes into effect. Lion, meanwhile, carries a drone that reveals enemies’ identities and locations around the map for four seconds, including their exact outlines. In addition, each of the three adrenal surges grants the team a movement and reload speed buff for the same period, as well as a reduction in recoil and resistance to stun effects. The former comes equipped with a stim pen that applies a 20 HP boost to both herself and every teammate for 20 seconds, even reviving any downed allies, wherever they are on the map. Ubisoft does warn, however, that “a consistent gameplay experience is not guaranteed on the test server.” Operation Chimera will be available to test here until March 2, with the DLC season’s full release coming to PC as well as PS4 and Xbox One on March 6.įinka and Lion were revealed in full just a few days ago. The TTS allows PC players to try out the new content ahead of its full release. The limited-time Outbreak event will be made available periodically throughout the Test Server phase starting on February 20th, allowing the development team time to improve and implement fixes as necessary. Along with traditional, competitive Rainbow Six Siege multiplayer matches, these new Operators will see their weapons and gadgets put into action in Outbreak, a new four-week co-op event that starts March 6th. Additionally, Lion and Finka represent French and Russian counter-terrorism units, respectively, as biohazard specialists. Operation Chimera introduces two all new operators to the multiplayer roster, Lion and Finka, Elite members of the Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear (CBRN) Threat Unit. ![]() A consistent gameplay experience is not guaranteed on the Test Server. The Test Server allows players to test upcoming gameplay features that will make their way into the main game itself. The Test Server is an alternative version of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege.
