View Full Version : AVS Rainbow Six Vegas Frag Night

Hey Gents (and Gals),

Let's start an AVS frag night once or twice a week on Vegas. Anyone interested? We'd just have to coordinate what time we wanted to play and what night. We also need to post PSN ID's here so those interested in playing can be invited. I figure if we set nights, we can use this thread to determine who will be hosting those nights and what time we want to get started. Since there is no lobby system as of yet, we'll have to be strict on time so all who want to play can get invited to the games. We can be as formal or informal about winning and losing as you want!

My PSN ID is Machines. Feel free to add me with an AVS reference in the message and I'll approve it!

Cool, cool! When posting your ID's, can you also post what night and time works best for you? Otherwise, we could just pick a solid one and stay with it and if you can make it, you can make it.

I'm up for it. Weekends work best for me, like Friday or Saturday night from 8:00 PM on. Will be in Atlantic City this weekend, but will have my PS3 with me. Never leave home without it!

This game is addictive. I played 4 hours straight yesterday.

Please let me know you're from the AVS forums if you add me.

The best time to find me online is between 11pm EST and 3am EST. It's the only time I can play without interruption from my wife or my one year old.

I picked up the game on Wednesday. It's the first Rainbow6 game I've played so I'm not much good, yet.

Will be adding all of you to my friends list shortly (leaving early on Fridays is always a nice perk). If a game goes down tonight, I'll probably host one and post here a bit before I get started. Most likely start out on some team sharpshooter so everyone can introduce themselves and get warmed up!

RB6 noob - picking up game tonight or tomorrow. Got a deal for $45 cause the guy has the 360 version and said this one doesn't compare, but I don't care.

am I toast w/o a headset?

instantpop
06-29-07, 09:39 PM
You're not really toast without a headset, but it does help. I think as more and more people pick up the title headsets will become a bigger deal, but as of right now I've actually been turning my headset off in some games because there's no strategy being used on anything. Just people breathing heavily. LOL.

Will add those of you after the initial round later this evening after the nieces and nephews hit the sack!

I work rotating 12's so I'm not able to give definite times. I do get spare time after 9:30 pm when the wifey's at work and the kids are asleep.

I do have a headset.

Alright! 8:00 (CST) tonight (Saturday) is a GO!! Some notes:

If you're interested but have not yet been added to my friend's list, please send me a message with AVS in it so we can make sure you're in.

Also, with the high number of replies, I need a volunteer to host another game since 14 people is the max. This is assuming that everyone who's said they want to play is playing tonight. We can sort that out in this thread previous to the start time if we want to.

Looking forward to it!

I'm in the same boat. Tonight, I start the install of the JVC-RS1, DVDO VP50, and a 123" screen. I'll be up and running by next week's game!

Looking forward to it.

Lets get a chat going at 8 CST and those interested put something about Rainbow in your comment (like what I have). Then we can see how many people we really end up with.

Alright! I gave up on trying to buy from this one guy on craigslist who kept changing his mind, but the game is on its way home from target...should be just enough time to practice before getting railed by the rest of you (I was never good at rfom, so this will probably be worse).

Great idea. Now I just have to remember to log out when it's time to start!!

As for game modes, we can figure out who's interested in what when we get the chat going. At some point down the line, I think it be fun to start our own little AVS RV6 League, complete with teams and standings. We could have a draft of players and everything. I'm toying with the idea of just using something like a Blogger blog to be our information hub. We can gather interest for something like that tonight as well.

We could also create an AVS clan at gamebattles.com and have a rotating roster. So many possibilities when you have a game that is this much fun!

anyone still checking this right now? Ive gotten 2 "game invite messages" but I can only see them from my XMB - and can't respond and join that game. It seems like they're being sent "in-game" but there's a spot for "community in game messages" and I have none. Weird. what a noob i am

edit: and I'm an idiot.

*"connecting to host" for 2 mins now, I think I'm sol.

that was fun- totally differrent mindset than rfom, need to get my kills above my deaths. hopefully I'll get around to picking up a mic soon. later guys

unfortunately I am out of town on business right now, but I'll bb on Tuesday and I'll be off for a whole week and I plan on spending alot of time learning the maps on this game. So I'll be on throughout the week and try to meet up with everyone.

Also would definately love to join an avs forum league. I have a clan from Socom:Combined Assault and the few of us that have ps3's have been chomping at the bit to get a realistic shooter! I'll keep checking in and like I said Tuesday I will start sending invites out.

The AVS party was a great time. Very interesting game online vice the run and gun of FoM. I like the online multiplayer interface. I had my doubts about it after reading the first owner reviews. I did get kicked to the XMB twice. They (Ubi) have to fix that, cause it really sucks having to reload the game.

Great games, guys!

I apologize that I kept getting booted. I took my PS3 with me to my sister-in-laws in Atlantic City and was riding the neighbors wi-fi. I was only getting about 40% according to my PSP connection. When I got home last night and played it was much better, even though I did get booted once.

Anyone else just get logged out of the PS Network ramdomly? This happened to me once last night.

Look forward to more AVS playtime, so when you get the time and date finalized let me know.

No problem, Mobius. Still fun when you could stay in there. I do get the random boot every once in a while as well. Also had a hard time hosting on Saturday (for some reason people couldn't join the room?), so props to BMC for taking the reigns.

As far as regular nights, I think we could set up a few. Is anyone still interested in maybe formalizing an AVS clan? We could have inter-clan play as well as just roll in a group when there are several of us online. There's also the option to register us at GameBattles.com and get in on some real war action.

No worries...

I have a bunch of AVS people on my friends list now so when I am playing and people are needed to fill a game I send out invites. So if you see one from me thats why.
