#RIPold/r6g/
#SaveSiege

Bros, newbie/newcomer here
Any tips? I just downloaded R6 and willing to learn the game

>>2021679
Use your fucking gadgets/drones.
Information is king.
Play target drill to learn maps and basic callouts.
Map control and power positions are how you win rounds.
Crosshair placement is more important than raw aim.
USE YOUR FUCKING DRONES/CAMS BECAUSE INFORMATION IS KING

>>2021679
Learn the map. Make important use of your crosshair placement.
Play operators based on their roles rather than looks.

Do not, EVER, waste drones.

>>2021679
Don't sprint a lot. Siege has slow aim-down-sight speed compared to many FPS.
Echoing other anons: use drones, learn maps, communicate.
General formula for comms is [Operator] [Action] [Location].
>"Blitz breaching Main Lobby"
>"Kapkan crouched in Garage on 3 Ping"
>"Warden flanking metal stairs! Warden metal stair flank!" (Can repeat a comm if urgent)
Try not to spam yell at people: "This guy is here! I got shot over there!" Location names are given by the HUD compass, but there are lots of specific call-outs (usually a key object, color, or material, even Pro player names) which will be foreign to you as a noob, but it's part of the learning curve.
A lot to comms, but as newer player, even having basics is great.
Goes without saying, if you can get friends into it, it can be way more fun than queuing with randoms.

>>2021679
Some gun basics:
Zero concept of velocity so guns function more like lasers (besides the recoil). If you aim a pistol center, it can hit true across the map. No leading or compensation required (been playing BF6 so this sticks out as different in Siege lol).
1 hit headshots.
Bullet penetration and caliber-based destructible walls and floors.
Flash Hider and Vertical Grip are universal attachments on most guns with a few exceptions. Sights and laser sight are more preference, there's a gun range and practice modes to dial in instead of live matches.

>>2019456
Fuck off.

Getting spawnpeeked constantly will make you hate the game and not want to play.
I absolutely promise they are avoidable 99% of the time

Halloween event is live

hold on, wasn't ela in a gay relationship with caveira?

>>2023513
It's easier now more than ever to not get spawnpeeked in Siege since defender acog removal.
If for any reason you allow yourself to get spawnpeeked, you are not as good at the game as you think you are.

>>2024249
DMR's like Aruni and Tubarao still have acog and they're arguably better weapons for spawn-peeks.'
Also Alibi, Azami, Goyo, Maestro and Kaid all have slug shotguns with acogs.

>>2024498
I don't care.
If we're in ranked and I see you die at any time from a spawnpeek, I am going to assume you are either a peak gold or spent all your time during the drone phase on your phone not paying attention.
In either case you are shit desu

>>2024249
agreed, but there's no way for new players to know how avoidable they are, or that some routes are just so much worse than others.
I think they're still one of the roughest parts of the new-player experience, and people keep doing them as long as they keep working (until ~high emerald)

I need some serious advice on this. Anyone who is Plat and above, please tell me what you think:

Let's say you're in a sweaty, "high-ranked" lobby and you're the last man standing in a 1v1, 1v2, or 1v3 scenario- how exactly should you consciously conduct your movement? Let's say the enemy is vaguely aware of where you are, and are holding an angle at your general position. They are already aiming down their sights waiting for you. Time is not on your side.
Should you:

A.) Approach the doorway with a very basic strafe-peek? (You know, alternate between the A and D keys while you try and get a glimpse inside the room?)
B.) Approach the doorway with a shaiiko peek?
C.) Approach the doorway with a slightly more complex hashom peek?

I know that in all cases you're likely to die, but which method would result in you receiving the LEAST damage and not get immediately headshot when entering the doorway, and would also overall be the least time-consuming?

>>2029452
Your intent with any peaking / baiting at the angle is to draw out fire so you can calculate their position from the tracers or force a reload from them at which point you can move in / reposition.
Beyond that, gadgets to cause distraction or take a longer rotation. Any time you're man disadvantage and
>enemy is vaguely aware of where you are
applies, you must play aggressively with more movement (not careless, but necessary). Getting collapsed onto in a corner = certain death. Being mobile and taking the engagements one at a time is the better percentage to clutch.

>>2030915
>Being mobile and taking the engagements one at a time is the better percentage to clutch.
Replying to myself, obviously different scenarios = play it different. Maybe you're Mute shotgun and you have the close door angle on multiple who need to flood in, then staying put and letting them move into you may be wiser ofc. Different ops, scenarios, sites, etc.

>>2029452
Playing super aggressively and moving to an angle that most favors your loadout is almost always the play

>>2026653
i think it must have been that french chick instead, it was a really long time since i played GR Wildlands and i'm not sure if it is even canon.

as dumb as it is, a warzone-mode clone probably would have done better and garnered more hype than dual front.

>>2029452
I hit champ without ever learning how to shaiko peek or hashom peek.
Do them if you enjoy practicing them, but you absolutely do not need them.

The bigger their number advantage, the more aggressive you want to be (you may even want to full swing the first guy right away if its really bad)
You want to force a series of one-on-one before they can group up and figure out what they all need to be holding

If defuser has not been planted and its a 1v4 or 1v5, sit tight and bait the first 2 or 3 frags. This is sadly extremely effective even in champ lobbies

>>2037983
I want to like dual front, but the map is massive and feels soulless and runs like shit on my laptop which generally isn't even that shit even though its aging. You never really get the experience of a larger fight because in practice it plays like two seperate 3v3s or 2v4s and when it then runs like shit with jaggy framerates that makes it ten times more difficult to win a fight, the 30 minute or whatever match time just becomes a long arduous chore of eating shit for 30 minutes where half the time is spend just navigating the map rather than fighting the enemy team.

Shield Guard
Nothing smart was said except for that they're currently "developing a new anti-cheat method"

Dual Front
Dual front lets developers do some experimentation outside of Core siege. They are planning to do big updates for it in Y11 (bigger than neutral zone task)

Esports
Nothing smart was said about this either. Live events are cool I guess.

Operators
Devs still want to reach 100 operators goal. Though it is getting harder and harder to come up with new unique ideas.
Interesting fact - some operators mechanics were thought of after looking at current gameplay meta or ingame lore

Remasters
Remasters are thought as a way to keep old operators relevant and loved by players.
Karpazis added that some old operator features may be added back during anniversary event in Y10S4

Realism
Dev team working hard when deciding to spend their resources for each season into 1 surreal or 1 tactical 3D skin.
What I meant is that they hearing different demands from players and try to satisfy them all given limited resources.

Lore
Current narrative direction is praised by community and devs like to see that. More lore based content (incl. events) will come.

Thailand and Aruni
Corporate speech on how important PLACE_NAME is for entire community.
Corporate speech on how PLACE_NAME local community size lead to designing an operator who was born there in the lore

The next 10 years
While they keep getting funds and resources to continue developing they will, well, continue developing.

I bet he's wishing he just stayed on M80, holy fuck. By now I legitimately think Spoit is the most overrated PL player in recent history. Yes, he won "Rookie of the year" years ago- but what has he accomplished since then? Jackshit.
Bro can beat Shaiiko in shitty YouTube 1v1s, but can't beat him in any meaningful tournaments that will improve his PL standing and career lmfao.
I think it's time to chalk Spoit y'all, all he's got going for him is being the 1v1 master

>>2019456
Ubisoft is smoking crack as usual when it comes to the breacher buffs next season baka.

Before next season:

Ace- S TIER
Hib- A TIER
Mav- B TIER
Therm- A TIER

During next season:

Ace- S++ TIER
Hib- S TIER
Mav- A TIER (Maybe even S TIER because his fucking nades will be back)
Therm- A TIER

I am fucking violently ill that Ace is going to have even more health, in addition to no longer being countered by Mute. Ace is already nonstop banned in ranked as is, soon he'll basically be an unplayable permabanned operator.

Fuck's sake

>>2063852
Now that I think about it more, Mav might even be S++ TIER because he'll go back to making footholes, blindly throwing in a singular frag through the footholes made, and destroying all wall denial except Kaid claws.

I did not miss that bullshit, and now it's returning. Goddamnit.

>>2063861
And if that wasn't bad enough, I completely forgot grenade lineups are superbly easy now due to the visual indicators when preparing to throw grenades. These weren't in the game seasons ago.

All Bandit trickers will be getting shit on by the old veteran Mav players.

I am seething, send help bros

>>2063852
Ace is super fucking overrated. Dogshit secondary gadgets and smallest actual breaching area now that everyone and their grandma knows how to hibana and mav trick consistently.

No real apology for the content drought and hacker infestation is unacceptable.

>We pinky swear we will do something about cheating this time guys!!!
On top of that shilling multiple elites in the reveal and two week early access for a fucking gun? You have got to be shitting me.
This is a spit in the face. That nigger lover kike Yves should be groveling on stage and begging players for forgiveness.
I'll go over my thoughts on the balance changes in another post.

>>2064183
>DMR
Favorite addition this season. This will be the meta pick on every operator that has it.
>Thatcher
I like it. Depending on the range could be good early game intel like IQ for scoping out where defenses are concentrated.
>Mute
More consistency is always good. Curious if the increased range is enough to counter thermite now.
>Castle
I like this change since it never made any sense why a metal barrier couldn't be electrified. No mention if this works with bandit.
>Thermite
Overtuned. Shotgun was unnecessary and three charges makes Hibana's niche as best breacher for hatches irrelevant now.
>Ace
No opinion. Never thought he was that good outside of being the best fragger of the group. There are a few sites where he is strong but breaching a larger area is generally better and no smokes for plants is a big downside.
>Hibana
I'm very happy with the changes to her gadget but it's a little odd that she got the DMR when her 20 round mag has always been an inherent flaw with hibana and now it's a non issue. I would have preferred to see her get the secondary shotty and thermite get the DMR.
>Mav
Retarded change. Mav is very strong he does not need frags and I say this as a mav main.
>Ranked
Still hiding actual rank for no fucking reason and they pussied out of a true solo queue.

I think there were many other operators who were more deserving of a facelift.

>>2064191
Mav is getting his frags back, newfag
He originally had them before they were removed
If anything you should be grateful, because Mav will be reverted back to hard-countering Bandit-tricking for free

>>2064258
>ackshually he had frags before
great observation there genius. smg-11 had acog too ubisoft better bring that back since clearly it wasn't removed for a reason.
>because Mav will be reverted back to hard-countering Bandit-tricking for free
you don't need frags to cuck bandit. mav tricking is not hard if you know how it works. he has one of the only gadgets in the game with zero counters, he's a 3 speed, and has a great kit that is only getting better with an automatic pistol and frags. now he needs to blow up bulletproof gadgets too? where is the tradeoff for having such a powerful gadget?

>>2064289
> you don't need frags to cuck bandit. mav tricking is not hard if you know how it works.
You don't need them, but frags are among the easiest ways
There is no tradeoff, he just gets them back now and is uncounterable unless you throw a C4 near a hole Mav is making and hopes it kills him
Thank Ubisoft, no refunds

>>2063871
>All Bandit trickers will be getting shit
True. Maybe it's a first reaction, but overall it's a crazy Attacker Hard Breach buff right? Even before this update, disconnects have developed like Pros using Mira proactively (open so you can C4 kill / impact trick hard breach) to counter. But you almost never see that in common Ranked because the risk is high and players are not accustomed to that kind of coordinate line-up. So there are less counters on Defense for average players to pull off, your walls are just getting opened on most main sites

>nokk getting a gun that isn't a meme
Nice

>hibana and ace tricking removed
>maverick nerfed
now all these buffs make sense

>>2064289
>>2064321
"there is no counter to maverick"
Maybe at lower levels mav tricking is nice and safe, but at higher ranks people bring jager to catch the nades, and will shoot back when trying to mav trick
I almost never see maverick tricking in diamond or champ lobbies because it takes too long and is super risky for the Mav.
If you have enough support from your team smoking/counterpeeking the holes as you trick, you deserve to get wall, you're committing a ton of resources

>>2074840
> Maybe at lower levels mav tricking is nice and safe
Stop with that retarded argument in your anecdotal lobbies. Mav is used all the time in pro league, which blows any ranked lobby you've ever been in completely out of the water- and even in PL, Mav regularly gets walls down.

Are you gonna call pros "low level" now? Shut your bitch ass up

>>2074840
>and will shoot back when trying to mav trick
it's literally impossible to shoot mav on any wall he can rappel on which is the majority of important outside walls and any hatch which isn't hugging a wall. Even outside of those situations it is still borderline suicide to peek if he has any teammates with him and he can prone cut at an angle to make you have to stick your face right up to the wall to even see him. if you can't get any value out of mav you're just shit at him. the only counter to mav is c4 which either means risking not having any denial on the wall to begin with or shooting the battery which telegraphs a C4 throw and he can just sprint out of the way.

>>2074840
Jager's and Wamai's gadgets cannot catch frags placed just slightly outside a line of sight Mav has made in a reinforcement wall
This will allow Mav to destroy Bandit's batteries basically for free, and all Jager/Wamai can do is helplessly watch in the background
How are you supposed to be in Diamond-Champ ELO but you don't know about that major issue? Are you one of those shitter Ranked 2.0 Champs that would get dumpstered by the old Ranked 1.0 Champs?

>>2074868
sorry, didn't realize everyone in this thread was complaining about their pro league matches

Mav's weaknesses and counterplay are really obvious if you'd ever used him yourself

>>2074873
try reading my post again, you can get value out of Mav, but the tradeoff is committing multiple teammates and a lot of time

>>2082535
>>2082549
That's great bro, we're all happy for you that you can totally just start seeing red and headshot Mav while he's getting walls down
Now go back to jerking off to Bonnie from Five nights at Freddy's or whatever it is you've been doing in your mommy's basement

Those faggots will go 20-0, 15-5, etc. against regular people that don't get paid to play Siege 24/7, and then get wafflestomped in pro league
I guarantee you that if I had 10k hours dumped into Siege and was a pro player, I'd only ever be scrimming 24/7 and you'd never catch me in ranked unless it was magically guaranteed I fight doomstacks of Champs and other pros every game, because that's unfair as fuck otherwise

wow lol yeah i wonder what action ubi will take. funny enough my usual way of using the marketplace is listing black ice for pretty high asking price and my smg-12 listing sold for 4000 obviously as a result of hacked credits (wish i had put it even higher like 10k). would be cool if my situation slips through the cracks or if it'll be a complete rollback for entire player base.

oh fuck what did i miss

>>2154518
Am i still on time to get all the free shit? I'd need to download the game again and i'm not really planning on playing anytime soon but it would be cool to unlock every operator so i get to play them when i eventually lick it back up

>>2154879
they're rolling it all back so there's no point

Holy shit the game is still offline

A rollback is currently ongoing and afterwards, extensive quality control tests will be executed to ensure the integrity of accounts and effectiveness of changes. The team is focused on getting players back into the game as quickly as possible. Please know that this matter is being handled with extreme care and therefore, timing cannot be guaranteed. We will provide another update as soon as we know more.

Thank you all for your patience and understanding as we continue to tackle this.

we are so back

I am responsible for hacking Ubisoft.
I did this.

Someone please tell me if the source code is actually stolen.

>Game goes free to play
>Infrastructure gets raped beyond all recognition
Such many cases

>>2156675
Nah that was fake news. Just Siege servers getting tricked. Even the bans like the MJ song were only visual

i was already committed to never spending real money for credits or anything in-game on R6 for a while (previously did before marketplace), but now more than ever. that shit was an embarrassment, and the game's life is shorter rather than longer. call me a sucker but i wanted to believe in 5-10 more years of the game. extreme doubt now

>sync between platforms failed
the game is dead

Someone save this game
please tencent

how would YOU save siege?

NEW ARMOR SYSTEM EXPLAINED

There are now 5 different armour systems in the game

Light - 70hp, Fastest
Tactical - 90 hp, Fast
Medium - 110 hp, Middle
Heavy - 130 hp, Slow
Juggernaut 150 hp, slowest

3 Speeds: Light, Tactical and Medium
2 Speeds: Tactical, Medium and Heavy
1 Speeds Medium, Heavy and Juggernaut

Medium is the only one EVERY operator can use, meaning some ops you think are TOO slow like Zofia or Gridlock, can be made slightly faster at a cost for health

>>2174774
system bloat imo

>>2174774
But we can't see any differences in armor like the prequel from >25 years ago, can we?

>>2021679
1. cheaters everywhere
2. as soon as you win even 1 round, the enemy team will toggle their cheats
3. SMGs are the only viable automatics anymore due to 1 shot head shot rule
4. learn an operator that has selfish abilities on attack and defense, as teamwork doesnt exist in this game anymore. It's CoD, but slower
5. learn spawnpeek spots, learn to avoid them, and learn to use them. (abuse the shit out of them too)
and remember this the most. This game has had the fun optimized out of it.

i remember parts of that saga

is this game fun? i want to play some F2P shooter and the competition is this game, Arena Breakout or Delta Force

Siege is getting very fun denari is amazing

>>2185264
as someone who's put in a few hundred hours since october, it's honestly the most fun i've had with any shooter aside from valorant, the gameplay loop is just addicting, there's so many things to learn

>>2185264
The gameplay is incredible. It's everything around it that sucks.

thoughts? i think this is a brilliant step for the franchise

obviously they don't want to compete with siege by making another shooter, turning it into a turn-based game can let them iterate on the slow-paced strategic of the old games
i hope there's some elements that resemble the classic planning phase and the option to romance and bang iana like a fire emblem game

>>2194798
It might be okay, but its not a good sign everyone totally forgot about the last Cancyverse turn-based tactics game. Really, if you want a something that resembles the planning phase of the original game, there's Frozen Synapse and the contemporary Private Military Manager, alongside the elephant-in-the-room of XCom. Not that Ubisoft can't make another good Rainbow Six game, but we're far past the point where you can slap "Tom Clancy's" on a game cover with a guy brandishing an H&K gun and guarantee its quality.

Read the bio nigger it's word for word girlboss feminist fanfiction dogshit. Female operators are always front and center in promotional material and story segments.

Isn't this game's movement a lil bit glitchy? when you prone and then press the sprint button, the character will get up, do a lil hop and just walk, if you switch to your pistol, he starts sprinting for real

and with lean mode on hold, if you lean right then hold lean left at the same time, the character does not lean left, you can if you reverse the direction

>chuds are still buttmad over bios and a decade plus old photo of ubisoft developers

they cancelled prince of persia and massively delayed black flaggot remake by 1 year

however it seems like siege will become one of their major focus now. i hope this brings more funds to the team and we end up getting more content. it'll likely take a while though, so maybe in 2-3 years we'll see the results.


this mid-season patch has been great.

if ubi goes down, tencent will take over rainbow six iirc
idk what would happen to the tom clancy brand name though

this week's event challenges aren't easy

>>2019456
Dudes. What the FUCK is up with weirdos tryharding so much in unranked? I'm currently Emerald and I've been playing Siege since High calibre- and I can honestly say that the sweatiest matches I've ever had, have always been in unranked and NEVER ranked.

It just doesn't make sense. Randoms on the enemy team will straight-up bust out pro league tier strats in goddamn unranked and put up double digits whenever I'm trying to relax and complete a few Ubisoft connect challenges and am not prepared at all whatsoever, but then those some randoms will get fucking dumpstered in ranked and hardly get 5 kills.

I'm not kidding: only like 2 weeks ago in unranked, I fought against this mega-tryharding Champ. I looked up his profile afterwards, and I shit you not: his lifetime unranked/quick-match kda was like 2.20, but his lifetime ranked kda was hovering around 1.20.

What's the point of being fucking Superman when your ELO is not on the line, but then when your ELO is actually at stake, you're suddenly a normal player??

Does it all just boil down to ego-stroking?

if you're getting matched against sweatlords it's because you are one.

Is this a good tdm game or do people only really play the sweaty modes?

>>2211483
There's a deathmatch mode if that's all you want to play.

>>2211483
You can play deathmatch but this is made for being a search & destroy game

HOLY SHIT THEY ARE SAVING SIEGE

>>2212014
Can't wait to see how they fuck his face up

>>2212023
They'll probably go for the bearded look like in Smash Bros
But Siege has plenty of customization options, I can see them releasing various skins of his different versions like MGS1, 2 etc.

is it too late to get into R6S? I got the ultimate edition randomly out of impulse

>>2213700
No but like anybody else, you'll need a good 100 hours into it if you want to become decent at the game

>>2213700
You'll probably get fucked up a lot unless you enjoy that type of competitive FPS experience, there is a decently high knowledge barrier in the form of map callouts, gadgets, reinforcements and angles
I'd suggest finding a friend to share the pain with

Aren't the ranks completely unrelated to the actual thing determining your MMR and therefore matches

>>2214843
I feel you bro. CEO windows are the best spot to play from but keeping defenders from retaking lobby is fucking impossible and randoms are always useless on basement never getting hatches and baiting you on blue/garage.

>>2215248
>Aren't the ranks completely unrelated to the actual thing determining your MMR and therefore matches
Can you elaborate?

>>2217104
At a certain point they completely detached your visual rank from the value the game uses to determine who you should be playing against
If you start a new season, the game still knows you're a plat and will match you with other plats, even though your rank says you're copper
You will rank up much faster though because how high your invisible MMR is determines how quickly you boost through the shitter ranks

I'm a new player. Am I fucking crazy to think this game is way more complex than Counter-Strike?

>>2213880
lmfao

>>2218853

>>2218853

CS's beauty is how simple it is, this is not a knock on Val or Siege I like all of these games

>>2218853
not at all, its way more complex and interesting.
The maps alone are more dynamic with many more angles + destruction, and then there's gadgets.
CS caters to a more autistic, repetitive experience.
It is nice having so few callouts to remember though

>>2222081
>It is nice having so few callouts to remember though
pro players having a callout for every window on every map is still insane to me. how the hell do you even remember all that.

siege will always be my favorite "tactical" """competitive""" first person shooter.

CS bores me to death; i'd rather just not play any video games for a day than have to get on counter strike lel. i seriously do not see the appeal in the boring robotic feel of the round-to-round gameplay, the guns, the strategies, the fucking, people who religiously play CS. i'd rather work a part time job than play CS.
siege 100% clears it with the unpredictability factor alone plus, i can aim down the fucking sights of my gun in siege. fuck CS. lmao
COD and battlefield are total slop games, i couldn't name a single reason to play the most recent versions of either these IPs.
overwatch and valorant do not interest me, playerbases are full of whiny faggots and harpies ("valorant egirl/eboy" is a trope for a reason.
battle royale types like apex, PUBG or warzone are not what i'm looking for in a multiplayer game.
similarly, milsims like ARMA or Squad are way way waaaaaay too demanding for me to get any actual enjoyment out of them.

are there any reason(s) that you keep coming back to r6 siege, despite it all?
