thread_title: Dev Diary #1

message: Lumping everything into one nebulous topic ("Details"?) looks bad. C'mon - divvy it up (Gameplay, etc.) and make it look good. JAF1970 (talk) 13:07, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Cleanup

message: Does anyone else think this list should be removed?  The list of new weapons was removed, with the reasoning that WP isn't a game guide, so it stands to reason that this list should also be removed.
The list has a lot of errors, too, if you check it against pictures from the player's guide, but that's beside the point. --Icy Guy (talk) 05:31, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Confirmed Maps" list 

message: I can't edit it but you can. x-play gave it a 4/5  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.61.222.72 (talk) 20:14, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  X-Play review 

message: Ubisoft recently stated that the PC version for Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 has been delayed. I tried putting this into the article (with cited source) and it got deleted by Nimitize. What gives? See Rainbow Six: Vegas (the prequel to Vegas 2) to see that this is LEGITIMATELY OK. Neil the Cellist (talk) 21:23, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Release Dates 

message: Notwithstanding the dozens of in game "fake" advertising that reference 2010, see http://www.1up.com/do/reviewPage?cId=3166991 for a out-of-universe reference. I won't edit the plot section myself, as I haven't yet finished the game and don't want to see spoilers. xenocidic (talk) 12:55, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the confirmation. Neil the Cellist (talk) 22:30, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  The game is set in 2010 

message: I removed this because, if memory serves, no hostages are reported as "important" excluding the NSA Agent in Chapter 2. If I am incorrect, please fix it. Rockhound (talk) 14:53, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: "NATO Hostage"

message: Should a list of the real-world products/organizations advertised in Vegas 2 be included in this article? Kap2319 (talk) 02:48, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it's recommended, however, you should also link with brackets to what in-game advertising is. There is an absence of a lot of good linking on the Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 article because I've had to remove a lot of them. Example: Someone linked "operative", but that redirects to "political campaign staff", which is NOT Bishop's role. (Bishop debates with guns, not with a political manual). ;-) Neil the Cellist (talk) 12:55, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  In-Game Advertising 

message: Ok, there are random IP addresses out there who keep changing the review scores on the article. For example, some user of an IP address went in to change the EuroGamer review score of 7/10 to 10/10, which is not only immoral, but a complete violation of Wiki-ethics. You do not, under any circumstances, change a review score just because you like the game. What someone else's opinion remains THEIR opinion. Do NOT put words or numbers in someone else's mouth that they did not put in. Whoever keeps doing this, you better cease and desist, or I'm reporting you.

replies: text:  Great, now there's even more. Some random IP address tried to make a subtle edit, changing PC to XBOX360 in one sentence. Good thing I caught it in the edit history. Neil the Cellist (talk) 16:17, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Misciting information

message: This is a Wikipedia talk page. This is not a forum for discussion of R6:V2. It's for collaboration on how to improve the article, not for idle speculation and commentary on the game itself or various plot factors about whether a character is alive or not. Per WP:FORUM/WP:TALK I've removed the idle chatter. Please do not reinsert it. ⇒SWATJester Son of the Defender 13:36, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: This is not a forum 

message: If I understand correctly, the game begins "five years ago", right? So that's 2005. That means Ding Chavez isn't Six yet, John Clark is. The events of Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield (5 games ago) took place in 2006. That means that it's a plot inconsistency, since Chavez should be Major Ding Chavez, not the rank of Six. Someone should point this out and cite it somehow. Neil the Cellist (talk) 23:49, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Plot inconsistency

message: From a netural point of view I wanted to mention there was a big dispute on the RSV:1 page about including a weapons list.  It got added and deleted a bunch of times.  It seems to be surviving here on the RSV:2 page.  I'm not saying keep it or delete it (seriously I can understand both points of view), just stating a possible inconsistency in Wiki policy.  Sorry to bring it up if it's an ugly subject.  :)  --Scottymoze (talk) 02:32, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You're right, it is evidence of wiki-inconsistency. However, many articles on Wikipedia suffer the same problem. I'm not saying that that's ok. Regardless of inconsistency or not, I'd say for now we should just let it be. Anyway, good observation, Scottymoze. Neil the Cellist (talk) 04:59, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

text: You mean Wiki Policy Nazis are at it again? I don't see why the hell there's such a big deal about it. It's a first person SHOOTER. Some people like to know what you can shoot people WITH. If you don't like that, fine. Getting into internet drama about it is fucking retarded, however. In short, the Policy Nazis are trying to kiss ass and look like sheriffs so they can become admins. One of the many aspects I hate about wikipedia. 67.212.39.178 (talk) 20:33, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

text: It was stupid to remove the weapons. The rules need to be updated for video games such as this. This game aims for realism and the weapons in the game attempt to perform true to the real thing, therefore the information should be deemed relavant.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.20.210.253 (talk) 09:31, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Weapons List: Dangerous Discussion (sorry)

message: The Coop Section should note that while Coop Story Mode only has 2 human players (Bishop and Knight), Coop Terrorist Hunt still has 4 players like in RB6: Vegas 1.

thread_title: Coop Section

message: Should the article include a section for voice commands using the xbox live headset? I recall End War's article mentioning that and I think it is an interesting feature to mention.--BobCzar (talk) 01:07, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: EndWar should not include that, as that is a specific gameplay element. Wikipedia is not a place to post about intricate gameplay abilities. See Wikipedia's Manual of Style. Neil the Cellist (talk) 15:14, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Six million copies sold worldwide  

message: I have been attempting to condense the overly long and detailed plot summary, but it is still fairly massive even after perhaps a 40% reduction.  I've finished my first run through, but I may go back through another time and trim it down further.  I may also poke around with the other sections and see if I can reduce the word count without removing actual content. --Isfppoet (talk) 14:52, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Alrighty, massive condensing (condensation?) finished.  I think it's about 40% of what it was, and still fairly concise if you just want the gist of it, which is all that should really be in there anyhow.  Props to the original author for detail(!), but I think this level of detail is fine.  I'm gonna go ahead and remove the flag, but if somebody thinks it's still too long, I leave it up to you. Cheers.--Isfppoet (talk) 15:29, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks to the last couple of editors for clearing up/correcting a few details I left overly vague in the plot summary. The changes probably weren't strictly necessary, but it definitely looks better for it. ^_^ I confess, some of my vagueness was intentional, but just a WEE bit of it was stuff I honestly couldn't recall 100%. XD Looks good guys. Isfppoet (talk) 03:57, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Plot summary 

message: I just noticed that there is no mention of the general reception on the PC, only for the consoles. I have not checked, but sometimes the score can differ because pc gamers sometimes judge games with a long history on the pc more harshly.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.229.209.232 (talk) 06:09, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
