Going through all these videos of old Siege, it’s tragic that they had to sacrifice the lighting & look for the competitive side. It’s understandable why they did it. But the lighting & graphics in a shooter like this at the time is an absolute masterpiece & all the work & detail put into it but had to be thrown away. Absolutely tragic.
Absolutely! It sucks that siege sacrificed its identity in order to become more mainstream. I was ok with the cosmetics siege has added but hate the changes in balancing, lighting, and maps.
@@SledgesHammer123 I think Old Clubhouse is the only older rework you haven’t done yet, or maybe old Coastline at night with the old graphics & lighting even though it’s not all that different nowadays. Those would be pretty cool to see.
@@SledgesHammer123 It would be very nice if you play the coastline night version. By the way, it is very compatible and sweet with the minecraft music playing in the background.The coastline at night was my favourite. It's so sad that the game once looked so much better.
There's a weirdly dark and ominous feeling to these old maps, especially at night, which modern Siege lacks. This was back when they were somewhat focused on the story of the White Masks and Rainbow's creation.
They nailed the atmospheric tone of the game... It was moody, ominous and felt real. Kind of like a book where things are a bit more dramatic. A Stephen King perhaps?
Man I never thought an R6 map video could make me sad :( I started in the beginning and played this game so damn much, I even have an old video of me playing on old Skyscraper and more. I never realized, just how much I forgot about this map, it used to be a favorite of mine, alongside Chalet and House
One thing I miss about old Kafe is the old choir music soundtrack that used to play in the background. Ever since they took it out I haven’t been able to find it
@@ggbeats_495 while that did play on that level (I think by the train room), there was also another song that played by the portraits and the second floor Christmas tree by the library and bar area. I’d give my left nut to find that magical Russian Christmas sounding tune.
This was siege, i feel like the game try to be like every other game, but siege wasn’t like every other game. It was tactical and different than other shooter games. Now it’s just so different, it’s just not the same
@@steinsberry1789 i think year one was fun, like the consept over all, but i had the most fun playing in year 2, i think y2-y4 was peak of the game, all my friends played it, and every new op had a new gun and ability, and that was fun
That background song playing makes it to hurt more, it's sad to witness that you will never get a chance to play this ever again. It's sad to see that investors and authorities just care about the money not fans wants, tragically an undeniable game has gave up on more to say they won't turn a hair to fix this disastrous situation. It's a shame that good old experiences that touched us and made us to be able to escape reality will never occur again
Ive been playing basically since release, and for some reason i dont remember old kafe at all other than the snipers nest outside library window. The kitchen/downstairs area looks like a mess compered to how it is now damn
They really should add all the pre-reworked maps into the casual or custom pool, if they’re concerned about the space they could make the map low poly or like the stadium assets since they’re super simple.
The game is not better now , the old rainbow six is better , it looked better and was more competitive and realistic , back then you died in one bullet , now it’s an arcade child’s game , you survive everything and kapkan trap doesn’t even do damage = speed up the game to a rush Fortnite style . Not more competitive at all
Take me back to 2015 - early 2017 siege. To me it went to hell during Blood Orchid with Nerfla and Lesion. Outbreak was great in 2018 but after that it never felt the same. It's been 9 years... Can't believe what they did to house.
On one hand I wanna say the new versions of the original maps makes the game a lot more playable for newcomers but I don’t get why they removed night maps,doesnt need to be completely dim inside the buildings but the nightly aesthetic on maps like Kafe and Coastline made the game feel like something else
Wtf happened to this game, it was pure strategy and team work... I remember playing with my friends back in the old days. Now is just an other shooter... They have ruined it.
sure if that's how you play.. there can still be strategy, shield plays, vertical plays, team pushes, hard breaches, etc. it's just that everyone knows the game indepth enough now to not have to rely on those things and still win the game. Siege is still a 50/50 gunfight game at the end of the day
No one will see this comment but if you remember me I was the OG TheBossBrags console RUclipsr. Wasn’t that big 100k. But I lived in these times of siege and thank you to all that was there on that journey.
Watching this made me realise I forget how bad old Siege was. Playing since Closed Beta 2015 and my god did we put up with some bad map design. The amount of window peaks in Bakery for example was ridiculous.
Though no one even held bakery back then cos it wasn’t needed u could just bandit trick bakery wall and u could literally all be sitting in site I feel for back then it was completely fine though
Listen up , I can’t stand these noobs saying siege is better now , it’s NOT! Today siege is an arcade game , all damage has been reduced by 80 procent , is that more realistic ? NO ! Is that more competitive? NO , it makes the game more arcadey and noob friendly , old siege was maximum damage like insurgency sandstorm and hell let loose , it was a skill based game , that requires skill , tactics , teamwork . Today you can rush and do silly stuff , back in old siege if you rush you die immediately, they took away jaeger scope , his power , and all power , even kapkan trap is doing only 20 procent damage , you can run thru ALL of them and still be alive , old siege if you ran thru one kapkan trap you died immediately = realistic and competitive. If you rushed thru the door = you die immediately = realism and competitive. The maps was better in old siege , it was way more space and room for tactical approach = more competitive. But all these children joined the game and required nerfs , cuz they suck . I destroyed all of them , so they needed the game to change 100 procent so they could play a little , and they call that more competitive? LOL!!!!! Old siege was the best and most competitive game there was , but EVERYONE who say it’s better now that is beacuse they are truly bad and they needed 80 procent of damage to be taken away . Noobs ! You couldn’t survive one raid in old siege
@@rugbychampion right ? Lmao. Kapkan doing 20% damage ? Does he even play the game ? Back then noone went to kapkan traps because they were so obvious. They took out 80% damage? When? Where ? LOL
Skill issue. Games evolve. Back then was good in many areas but now it is good in other areas. Headshots are instant kill which is the most realistic you get. Because if that, none of what you said matters
@@__________________-________- not true , back then it was hardcore , you died of one bullet to the chest , no downs , instant death , more recoil , kapkan trap killed immediately, so people could not rush in like Warzone childish movement , speed was also realistic not running away from death ,now it’s like Fortnite . Nobody got skills anymore , they changed the game to gain a bigger audience= arcade. They even removed all the damage form weapons and acog sights cuz the noobs where complaining . Lol back in the day was real skills . Not this child game

By the way, is there a certain map you would like me to cover? I believe I can also do event maps like Outbreak and M.U.T.E. Protocol.
@@SledgesHammer123 I think Old Clubhouse is the only older rework you haven’t done yet, or maybe old Coastline at night with the old graphics & lighting even though it’s not all that different nowadays. Those would be pretty cool to see.
I can do Coastline at night. I used to love that map at night and really miss it.

The old R6S was much more mature.
Because of the poor lighting

check 'во поле береза стояла ",its old russian song,but this song have many versions

Siege was dying for, like, 3 years. Stop being sentimental
@@rustys.1070 im making statement not showing emotions mark think before commenting nonesense use your head

I think they temporarily did that for the legacy arcade event. I just hope they add it to the new arcade playlist.
Ngl that old window in kitchen connecter was a nightmare to deal with
God this hurts.. Thanks for taking us back down memory lane one last time
No problem man, I will start doing other maps like coastline or bank at night soon as well
You are aggressively homosexual
Miss night maps so much, back when every match felt different
Going back to these Siege is a way better game now.
True. I miss how the game used to be.
The game is not better now , the old rainbow six is better , it looked better and was more competitive and realistic , back then you died in one bullet , now it’s an arcade child’s game , you survive everything and kapkan trap doesn’t even do damage = speed up the game to a rush Fortnite style .

@@Lowkicksfordayz been playing siege since it was released till now. I didnt looked back and i still play the game from time to time.
No it's not better now it was way better back than.
@@Lowkicksfordayzwtf are tou talking about. Every single update has slowed the game down
Take me back to 2015 - early 2017 siege.
To me it went to hell during Blood Orchid with Nerfla and Lesion.
Outbreak was great in 2018 but after that it never felt the same.
It's been 9 years...

I miss the old R6. I stopped playing it because it became too competitive. 😭😥
Back when Siege was vibing
Shut up
Somehow this brings back nostalgia but I didn’t even play r6 when before Kafe had a rework.
The vibe of old siege was something that just felt right.
Gone but not forgotten😔
Imagine guns having recoil in a "tactical shooter".
This is barely recoil. More like some weird wave effect
@@rustys.1070it’s better than what we have now.
Still enjoying it.
I will be back a lot
There was so much I forgot about in this old map. So sad it's gone.
2017 Para Bellum was the last true update of siege. Real players know whats what.
para bellum was fall of 2018
Oh man i almost forgot this map thx for bringing my memories back
My dream to came one update to original maps and original operators mode…
ohh myyy godddddd i miss old maps and lights and every thing !!!!!!!!
Its bittersweet to see it again, although I have seen data-mined night maps with updated lighting that might be coming back to siege
@@SledgesHammer123 i hope
Anyone know the music (not the video overlay, but the in game music) at 4:30. Been looking for it since 2016. No luck. No joy
Really would've loved if you did a walk-around on the roof, looking at all the pretty off map stuff.
ubi pls make the campaign with old lighting
Ahhhh my good ol seige
Everyone has nostalgia bias?
That's it

That prep window run out used to be glorious with the 2 second defender outside timer. I agree though some of the maps were a nightmare to attack.
No it was better ! Old rainbow six was the best !! More competitive and realistic , not this arcade stuff it’s now
which season is it?
This version of siege in Vanilla, so it the base game on launch before any seasons came out.
The music 😂
Sadge
I’m in disbelief that it’s been over 5 years since all this changed it feels like it was just yesterday what a truly beautiful game
Back when the game used to be awesome!
Thanks man, Appreciate it;
🥺

Trying to perfect the game, they lost the beauty of the original
You ruined it by adding this goofy ahh Minecraft music ffs
Crazy
