R6 Toolkit Beta 0.7 Released

R6 Toolkit Beta 0.7 moves into players' hands through a shipment, demo, patch, beta, or gold master in February 1999.

R6 Toolkit Beta 0.7 gives players an early slice of the action, and in 1999 that means another download queue worth babysitting.

The names attached here include The R6 Toolkit and Rainbow Six. The hook is multiplayer. The hard numbers include 6 players.

Good. More games, more patches, more demos. The stack keeps growing, and nobody around here is pretending that is a problem.
