Rainbow Six: Siege - 10 Things It'll Do Better Than Call Of Duty
4. Tailored Gameplay For Different Players
Yes, it is possible to argue that CoD does this too, but at the end of the day gameplay always devolves into one of two things: either mindlessly running around or sitting in a spot taking pot-shots at enemy players halfway across the map. The lone-wolf styled gameplay may allow players to carve out some semblance of a unique playstyle in the form of kill streaks, but in the end all these do is alter the pace of gameplay in meaningless ways. In Siege each player comprises a part of a unit, and in doing so each has their own role to fill. This means that each class has a specific function, and each team member will be needed in order to execute a flawless victory. Whether this means being a sniper providing overwatch or being a shotgun-toting pointman - each member has their own purpose in the grand scheme of things. This makes carving out your own role far more meaningful than simply customising what boosts you bring to a lobby. Indeed, weapon and equipment choice has never been this important. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hd3X3Mesy8
