Bigest question is why does it take 1.5 gig of space for only few maps guns and few new tangos ?

I would guess its new rewriten core engine with better net code

No, all maps are available for MP, but only 5 and the 3 remakes, are exclusive to MP, meaning you wont play them in the SP part of the game. Like RavenShield, it has some MP only maps, but you have every map available to play in MP, something like 22 maps in RavenShield MP, and now another 19 MP maps.

DVS, have you noticed much improvement in the netcode, mainly with rubber bullets

oh, and have all the weapons sounds been redone? If so, are they much much better?

I am shocked to say I have never played this game.

I have been too busy on Ghost Recon but have always wondered if I would like this game. Any one here played Ghost Recon and this able to tell me the scoop?

PS I play Ghost Recon for the co-op mode!!

Well GR and RVS are 2 different games, both great at what they do. Our clan (UKB) have both a coop server and team advers, so I play alot of coop. I love this game which ever its served

I love the first person gun models in RVS, best yet Ive seen in any game to date. Again, like all Tom Clancy games, textures are very well done, game looks great, runs great and plays great. Best thing to do is to try the demo, or pick up the game, as it can be had really cheap now.

Still waiting lol

Ok, been playing it for the last 20 minutes, so far I like it

It's a little on the light side... a few new maps, but the new guns are pretty awesome, nice sound effects, the sound more "poppy" The maps are HUGE and they can get pretty slow when there are only 2 players left...

Anyways, here is an image from an old favorite...
