Insurgency vs Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege
Insurgency
Insurgency is, without a doubt, the best game to play if realism is a key criterion for you when choosing your first-person shooters. Unlike other tactical shooters, there is no cross-hairs to help you (just sights) or the bullet-soaking feature that so many games use. In fact, with a well-aimed shot, which in itself can be a pretty difficult feat at times, you can easily take down an opponent even if the fella has body armor. The realism doesn't even stop at the gameplay - the game even provides realistic gun sounds which will allow real-life gun aficionados to differentiate the different types of guns simply by listening to the fire. Your loadout can also be upgraded but each upgrade you make will have realistic effect on your weight, stamina and movement speed. So, you'll need to choose upgrades depending on which aspect you are willing to sacrifice.The game, however, is a fully multiplayer game. It features over 7 PvP multiplayer game modes as well as 5 unique co-op multiplayer modes. That said, if you fancy getting some practice before diving into some actual PvP, you can play the game with bots offline in any of the multiplayer modes you like. The game even has an in-built, squad-based 3D VOIP system that only allows for nearby players, both friendly and opposing, to hear you.
It is rare to find realistic shooters anymore nowadays, but Insurgency aims to change that. With incredible graphics and a painstakingly-detailed and realistic gameplay, it is an impressive first-person shooter.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is the highly anticipated installment to the acclaimed team-based, first-person shooter series, the Rainbow Six, which is based loosely on Tom Clancy's bestselling novels. Being an exclusively multiplayer game, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege offers players the rare opportunity to engage in intense, close-quarters confrontations by either bunkering down the site (if you play as the defender) or breaching the site (if you play as the attacker). Each match is highly tactical in nature, emphasizing on clever and well-timed breaching or defending strategies as well as perfect locations to set up or use the tools at your disposal regardless of which side of the fight you may be, in addition to accurate shooting and effective teamplay.The best part in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege though is that the game allow procedural destruction and this is something every player should use, especially for the breachers, to take their enemies by surprise. Collapse entryways to block paths or break down walls and ceilings to open up new ones - do whatever it takes to ensure victory for your team.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege may not be an easy game for newcomers to get into since they will have to learn the maps via the hard way (like most MMO shooter games actually), but once you have a certain experience in the game, you'll find this game amazingly-stimulating and refreshing due to its incredibly tactical teamplay.
