I'm a bit disappointed with the weapons/kit

Yes I know I'm sad but I really enjoyed the variety of weapons and customisation options in Rainbow Six Vegas 2.

There's a real lack of guns. Where's the MP7, MK46 or HK416 for example? Why is the M16A4 fully automatic and statistically better than the SCAR which is a far superior weapon in real life.

Why can't you choose your kit for each faction? I might fancy wearing desert fatigues one day or all black the other whilst as the SAS. I might like to choose my t-shirt etc.

Am I missing something or is it pretty much exactly the same as before? I.e. a small selection of weapons and no chance to change your outfit whatsoever?

Cheers.

COD has never been about making a fashion statement online though and just lets players get on with the real deal of online play. I think the weapon customisations are enough for anyone to keep going and the fashion parade for your emblem etc will keep those obsessed going for a long time.

I think the selection of guns etc is fine. Clothes and camo etc would be fun, but its no biggie.

Re: I'm a bit disappointed with the weapons/kit

The only weapon decision im miffed with is no Steyr AUG A1 or SA80 A2.

I know the LSW equivalents are in the game but i just want the assault rifles.

And why the RPK instead of the PKM, surely they should have put in purposely made machine guns instead of modified assault rifles.
