Re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2
This is going to sound stupid but I reckon it's Xbox specific, for some weird weird reason. I've not seen it jerk once, and neither has my nephew - who's played the whole story to completion. And neither has someone from round the corner who has completed about half the story.
I'd not even heard of these issues until I read this thread (I didn't read the reviews, I knew I was getting a Vegas sequel and that's all I was worried about).
How weird! Thats why i said in my post that i'm surprised nobody has seen it..
None of my other games do this. As I said, at its worst is the Rooftop level, think its the 2nd part. When you storm the kitchen to save the hostage and from there go into the like upstairs of the casino. You can breach through 2 doors and no matter how I do it - smoke, flash, no smoke/flash, the amount of people in the room just jerks the entry to a crawl.
Then once you clear the room, its not much better. You still have some people on the lower level and trying to kill them from upstairs is virtually impossible as it starts jerking again and the sound of gunfire cuts out - so all you can see are tracers jerking past - or the screen flashing to show you've been hit.
Took me AGES to get past this point due to the fact I couldnt kill anyone.
When I did manage to clear that, the next part where you enter the slot machine room - slowdown again and again chaos of jerky aiming.
It does get a bit better after that, but further into the next section it comes and goes again and the sound cuts off etc.
Jerking seems to be worse when you are in cover and peeking round objects etc is difficult because of it.
Cannot see a reason for it being XBOX specific though. For my setup, I've got a Premium with 20gb, connecting to HDTV by RGB monitor cable.
Every other game works fine...
