Quoted from Blackfoot Studio Forums :

“I would like to personally welcome you all to the BlackFoot Studios forums. We, as a studio, are dedicated to the absolute best in squad based tactical gaming. We have been in business since late 2004, concentrating on outsourcing art and programming work to various clients… Some fairly well known.

It is our opinion that the tactical gaming market has become fragmented and there is currently a void to be filled. We are dedicated to filling that void with the style of games that many would call “classic” tactical squad based gaming. There is still a huge market for this style of game and BlackFoot Studios is in a great position to capitalize on it.

BlackFoot Studios was founded on very specific principals on game design, level design and what makes a compelling, realistic and fun experience. We will put those principles into practice over the coming months on our initial project. Hopefully we can take the wraps off this project soon.

Until then, enjoy the forums and keep an eye out for more information relating to the studio and what we are up to.

-John Sonedecker
President/Owner BlackFoot Studios “

The Frontline System will keep combat at a specific point on the map, while giving each team a set of objectives pertaining to the selected area. Once you complete these objectives, a new series of objectives will open up for you to accomplish. This will put a greater emphasis on team play, rather than a Rambo style where one person sets out to accomplish the goals on their own. All of these aspects will be applied to the team-based multiplayer portion part of the game as well.

For months their customer base has been voicing their needs and concerns regarding the latest release in the RainBow6 series, Vegas. Anyone who spent a few minutes perusing the OFFICIAL forums quickly became aware of the dismal state of this game and the non existant support from UBI. The forums presented and represented a very condeming view of the company from the customers viewpoint and a view I am sure that UBI wished would dissapear. Well wishes come true sometimes and last night the latest 3 mths of posts were lost due to a database crash. Now one would assume that a professional company would have a backup of the database and they did, it is 3 mths old. Incompetance by UBI or contempt for their customers, you decide.
