[timstone]

as a matter of fact....heres the full list of changes from rainbowsixgame.com forums
--------------------------

A Title Update is now available for XBOX 360 fixing many of the issues communicated by you, the community, and includes many gameplay tweaks based on your feedback. Major props to everyone who has been communicating directly to me and posting on the forums with community feedback! It was YOU who helped us deliver.

PS3 & PC users have received optimizations and stability fixes in a patch available on launch day. An update for the PS3 with the same game tweaks is currently in the works as well.

Here is a list of what comes in the XBOX 360 Title Update:



>>> IMPROVEMENTS <<<


Weapon Switch
Swapping to & from Pistols are now faster in Multiplayer.

Sound Loops
Optimized sound bank to improve weapon firing and helicopter sound clips that loop over and over.

Pings
Servers now update their pings more often so that players have a more accurate value of server performance.

Team Leader Respawn Modification
Spawn Shield is shorter when respawning with the Leader.

XP Modifiers
When there are more people on a team than the other, there is an overall XP modifier applied to all XP gained during the game.

Outfitting
By pressing the start button, players now have access to the outfitting menu in observer mode.

Team Deathmatch Respawn Modification
Respawning in Team Deathmatch now work like regular Deathmatch (random points throughout the map) which intensifies gameplay and minimizes spawn camping/trapping.

Faster Respawns
Faster respawns for Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch. You no longer have to wait a full 10 seconds!

Custom Search
Players who enter a room using custom search then exit will be brought back to an automatic search with the same criteria.





>>> FIXES <<<

Rank Reset Glitch
Fixed. Players will be able to use their Xbox guide during the game loading without risk of losing their rank.

Private First Class - Achievement
If you are ranked Private First Class or above, you will automatically get the achievement after the title update is complete and you load your gamer profile.

Freedom Shall Prevail - Achievement
If you’ve passed all checkpoints on Story Mode on Realistic and finished the game, you will automatically get the achievement after the title update is complete and you load your gamer profile.

That Wasn’t So Hard - Ribbon
Your ribbon now unlocks when you get the achievement.

Light Machinegun Sound Glitch
When firing continuously with any light machinegun, the sound of the weapon will no longer get cut off.

Civilians & Hostages on Tactical Map
No longer are displayed as terrorists.

Shield Teleport Glitch
Players can no longer teleport when trying to take cover with a shield

Out of Map Glitch
Players can no longer cover-peek into each other to raise a team mate above their heads that allows them to walk into areas outside the designated map.

Friend Invite in Ranked Matches
Inviting friends in Ranked Matches now work correctly.

Custom Face
Previously, Custom faces were sometimes copied over to another player’s face. This is no longer the case. Custom faces will display the proper faces.

Radar Jammer
Radar Jammer now work for clients, not just hosts.

XP Farming
That one famous area in ACT 1 “Ambush” will no longer allow XP Farming.

Observer Mode
Players will no longer be stuck in the respawn screen at 0 seconds while in observer mode.

Weapon Restriction
The weapon restriction configuration is no longer kept in Terrorist Hunt, Story and Co-op Story.

Custom Camo 3 Save
The colour and pattern of Custom Camo 3 now saves correctly.

no more story mode boosters *sad face*

the only thing i like is you can change outfitting in observer, just in case you accidentally hit observe when wanting to change your weapon

and i also like that when you do a custom search and then you get booted out of the game cause it filled up before you actually joined or whatever reason, that it searchs the same thing instead of searching everything

faster respawns is cool too


did i mention i hate the random spawn points?

[Tachikoma]

I never used that stupid glitch anyways so all's good I say

[Dan]

Great.

[stereomike]

I did the update yesterday at my mates and tbh we didnt really notice much change

[sambutler123]

It's good they've fixed all the many bugs, but they realy shouldn't have been there in the first place.

[plob]

im glad we have random spawns now,now we`ll see the spawn camping gone and now people have to fight.

If you dont like the random respawns play team leader, Theres 2 spawn points and thats it.
Alot of people have been whining about this update,And honestly i think its great,And so what if they changed some of the weapon names, not a big deal.My point is its a game and these updates are made for a reason. Not to piss the community off but to help them and make the game much more enjoyable. Now the random spawning is for this reason, People love to spawn camp and rack up them points,So to take care of that issue they made random spawns for some of the other game types. I dont know how people can be seeing this as a bad thing. If anythings its good.

the only people complaining about the spawn camping are people that come from playing run & gun shooters like halo and COD....

theres a 12 page thread on rainbowsixgame.com in the forums of complaints of the new respawn system

i personally dont like it.....i mean, the very least they should do for us true rainbow players is to make it an option to turn on and off when hosting a room

The outfitting options being grayed out sucked ; and when returning to the menu it would always disregard my original math options---they fixed both.

They also changed the MTAR's name to the TAR-21 originally... MAC's "Mac 11" is the "Model 11" or M11A1.
