R6V
Pros
-Great for some quick shoot 'em up action.
-It's 95% CQC
-Has great character customization options
-I have it
-Your health regenerates if you are wounded

Cons
-There's camping
-It's been out since November, so the majority of people playing it know every in and out of the game. They know all the little tricks and whatnots, and that could turn some people off.
-Only 10 maps, 5 more coming sometime this month

GRAW2
Pros
-It just came out, so everyone is new to it.
-19 perfectly balanced and designed maps
-Amazing graphics, much better than R6V's
-Better game for sniping
-I have it

Cons
-There's camping
-Not a big margin for error, you die in about 2-3 shots
-Lack of character customization
-Akward movement

Both games can be about tactics. In R6V it's all about which team can control the bottlenecks first. On several of the maps, there's only a small number of routes people can take from their spawn. If you control those routes, you control the game.

In GRAW2 there is no safe places to hide. Every position is vulnerable from multiple angles, which encourages teamwork more than I've ever seen. In GRAW2 you do not regenerate to full health and people die in 2-3 shots. This seems to get people in the camping mindset.

GRAW2 is the much better game for a sniper, if that's what you're still good at. Hope to see you on one of the two soon.

If camping is a big problem for you, then get GRAW 2, why? Because you can easily counter camping. The maps are set up in a way that you can get behind people rather easily, you just need to know the layout of the map, and I believe the game takes more teamwork. On Rainbow six vegas, on most maps, if people camp, it is near impossible to get behind them, but have to go straight in, which is much harder.

GRAW 2 sounds great. I wouldn't even consider death in 2-3 shots a con, that sounds great. No place to hide? Sniping? Sounds liek a helluva lot of fun to me man, I'll be getting it possibly tonight although I told my old old friend I'd play Gears with him tonight. Sooo message me when you can get on this weekend cuz snow day today plus monday off=4 day weekend ^_^

Same here. After you talked GoW up so much, my friend and I started single player together. We'll be finishing that up tonight. I probably won't be on GRAW2 until Sunday. I'll look for ya.

The maps are so nonlinear, camping isn't a problem. I don't understand why people complain about campers, every game has a substantial amount of them, EVERY GAME and people continue to complain.

P.S I beat the campaign on Elevated Risk tonight, yay me..The last part was so hard, my whole team was in the yellow, I was in the red and my medic only had one med pack left..hard as f*ck.

The very end was the only semi diffcult part of the game, (on elevated), everything else is easy. AI is still really stupid, and have the same bad aim, but the only difference is you dont take as many shots.

Oh and btw, I just got all the achievements, 1000 points baby.

Everyone, including most of my clanmates, on GRAW 2..is getting ultimate defender, except me.

Just join a room that has like, 10 or so minutes left, sit in the lobby, if they win, then you get the achievement, I was just waiting till they were done and I randomly got it, but, I guess I deserve it from the time I played and had 1 minute left xD, I really wasnt looking forward to doing it again.
