This game is the best of the best. Redstorm did a very good job with this mission pack. This game requires you to have Rogue Spear. This game features 5 brand new urban levels including the streets of Istanbul, the London underground, the canals of Venice, the back alleys of Mexico City, and a hotel/crashed bus in Hong Kong. It also has 8 new multiplayer spaces, 4 new weapons including a silenced sniper rifle, a mission creator, and 5 redone levels from the original Rainbow Six. These levels are the Hacienda, the bio lab, the mansion, the skyscraper, and the amazon level.
Is this expansion pack better than Rouge Spear itself?

Most people think expansion packs ar really a rip off. For the most part,it's true, and almost sad. But this expansion pack is more like a 1 player game. It doesn't add any insane new weapons that the world will see a minimum of 90 years from now. The game adds many new levels,and even lets you play some of the levels from the origional Rainbow Six. The new missions are extreme and are hard. Each mission needs careful planning and excecution. Unlike the Rogue Spear, the missions now have pedestrians walking around (which get pesky when your far in a mission and you accidently nail one down, failing the mission). Each mission is set in a city area. The new weapons are very practicle ones, and their not very odd for a Rainbow force to have. One nifty little weapon I seemed to enlighten this game in the sniping area is the silenced sniper rifle. I also noticed some performance issues are fixed. Players can now actually play with the graphics resolution all the way up. If you're planing to buy a game any time soon, make this your choice.
Good add-on mission pack

The add on pack for Rainbow Six Rogue Spear is a good deal at this price. You get 5 new levels for Urban Operations as you get 5 levels from the original Rainbow Six. There are 4 new weapons in the game as well. The locations for Urban Operations include Italy, London,Instabul, Mexico, and Hong Kong. There are also new multilevel gameplay as well such as 'defend'. The new level missions are challenging, with more terrorists to kill. This is a great add on pack if you want to add more good stuff to an already good game.
Excellent Job Red Storm!

I purchased this game at another store that received the game early. It is a knockout. Red Storm continues the great work. Lag is much-improved, the bullet casings that come out of the guns add much realism, and the new guns and maps are superb. I look forward to the third installment in the Rainbow Series.

Redstorm Entertainment has done it again! Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Rouge Spear Mission Pack: Urban Operations is in stores now! I have purchased this item once it came out in stores and I have already finished it! It's that good! It requires Rouge Spear in order to play on your computer. Take my advice and purchase this item now before the terrorists take over the world! Includes five new missions in real world locations: Mexico City Hong Kong London Venice Pakistan I definetly recommend that you purchase this item immediately for it has gone gold and everyone it in lines for this game! Remember one thing: You're the best of the best, remember that! (John Clark's statement in the game)
Excellent Game

Urban operations is a excellent game. You will get 10 levels ( 5 new and 5 old). If you get this game you will also recive a costom mission selection in the main menu. this is extremely helpful. the best part of this game is under options and it's called mods. Mods or modifacations allow you to place new guns, new levels, or new anything to an all ready great game.
You gotta try this game

You have to try this game, out, for all of you that have rogue spear this is the greatest edition. Tons of new maps, 4 new guns, and new suits (like the green bio-hazard uniform). This game is better (and harder) than ever. Taking place in London, Venice, Turkey, and Hong Kong, are only a few places the new maps are located in, mean while you must operate, in densely poplulated areas, with innocent bystanders. I was WOWED when i first played it. Oh, by the way, for all you programmers out there, the game does come back with a RSE (Rogue Spear Editor) but changed the name to UOE (Urban Operations Editor) of course, where you can edit levels, guns, and even soldiers and terrorists. Definitly worth the money if you already have "Rogue Spear"
Great levels, finally fixes AI

The four new locations/ levels included in this mission pack are great, fun, and have excellent and beautiful textures. The gameplay in them is great, and I especially like the bombed out city level. The pack also adds four of the classic Rainbow Six levels (some of my favorites) for you to play with the improved graphics and AI. My favorite thing about this expansion pack is that it finally fixes the flawed AI. Be prepared to finally face a challenge killing off deadly enemy soldiers and cunning snipers. The new multiplay maps included are also great. I only wish that there were a patch for Rouge Spear that adds the new AI code. Finally, the improved MOD support is great! You can use multiple mods at the same time, disable default weapons and kits, and use mods online WITHOUT changing any default files. A must have for anyone who has Rainbow Six: Rouge Spear!
All things being considered . . .

This has to be one of the best games I've owned. The plot is captivating. The action was fast and furious. Weapon selection was by far the best yet that this line has had to offer. All the other perks as well (map editor, terrorist hunt on numerous maps, etc.) were a treat and will have you playing for days. But not all games are perfect and this one is no exception. The game itself is not hard to learn, especially if you have been playing since Rainbow 6, but if you want to explore the game, meaning use the editor, it leaves a lot to be desired. No instruction or even help files. It leaves you out in the cold that way. And still the problem with not being able to play fluently on-line. The server setup is very nice though. Very self-explanatory there. But the load times and speed issue comes into play when your playing. Especially after killing a terrorist and watching him float in mid air. The incredible floating tango. A problem that dates back to the original Rainbow 6. A lot has changed since then too. Better textures, better sounds, better animation all the way around. If you don't plan on playing on-line or can deal with a little lag, this is a must have on your gaming shelf. You'll be happy you spent the money (which is not that expensive. Another nice feature of the game).
