This event fucking sucks
>>1832624idk i think it's kinda fun. git gud with the bosg
>decided to finally play ranked>a team wins a round>top player's operator gets bannedthis is retarded
I'm tired...
>>1838840feels cheeky when you're the top player though>mfw i play through every shield op on attack
is there any channel that do insightful analysis of replays instead of clipping stream? when i first play starcraft, artosis vids help me a tonne, hoping to find something like that for siege
>>1840075Fett has grown in popularity for that but also has less-serious content. Mint and Supr are also NA PL coaches who make content / stream, I personally don't care much for their insight. When Fett is on, he's fking on like turbo-autismo9000 in the best way. There is often a breakdown segment after PL matches focusing on a particular play / round. All the analysts Ubi has staffed are actually good, so Alphama (my fav), Jessie, and Fresh. They don't make it that convenient to seek out though so you'll have to be skipping around the pro league VODs.
i hate how uncommunicative randoms are in this game, i'd invite my friends but none of them are interestedand i only have like 70 hours in this game so i'm worried i'm too inexperienced for LFG, kinda sucks but i guess i have to push through it by myself
>>1845307>only have like 70 hoursyeah you're at the initial steep learning curve part >i'm too inexperienced for LFGas long as you let that be known there are plenty of helpful people who don't mind showing noobs the ropes. go for it and reach out. just soloing with randoms will be a lot worse and you won't grow / learn as fast.
>>1845307>>1845464> just soloing with randoms will be a lot worse and you won't grow / learn as fast.Honestly, I wouldn't recommend ANYONE try to solo queue unless at the bare minimum they have like 500 hours logged in and don't give a shit about their personal rank. If you feel like you're getting """carried""" by your stack and you want to truly figure out if you're a clutch player on your own that can hang against a hodgepodge of varying ranks going full-sweatlord, solo queue is your best bet. That's the only real benefit of solo queuing: figuring out if, at least mechanically and game-knowledge wise, you're a consistent and competent player in your performance despite having little, or even zero intel/comms to work off of. Pic related is my stats as a chronic solo queue player. Literally nobody with a brain in their head can say when it comes to KDA I'm "shit" or "carried", which is one small point of pride you can have if you're serious about solo queuing.
>>1845464>>1845488where do you guy find groups? the official discord? anywhere else?
>>1845512*guys
>>1845512Irl friends who know other irl friends
>>1845512Generally, the official discord and other, non-official R6 discords that are more focused on competitive play/scrimming.Good luck trying to convince anyone experienced and serious about ranking up play with you if you're a noobie. I've been there before, and it was aggravating as hell lol
>>1845561*to play
https://x.com/Rainbow6Game/status/1942961989841457508
>>1845846dope, i'll buy this and BL4 to support randy pitchford!
I've uninstalled and reinstalled this game about 5 times these last 30 days.
>>1840234>Fett has grown in popularityFett's voice and ADHD is fucking annoying.Reaper_EN was the best analyst but he retired years ago. Still his videos are good for learning fundamental siege.
>>1845512Don't bother. You're better off just solo queueing ranked and looking to add randoms you have good chemistry with.
>>1846762See you next week
>>1848312I'm playing right now...
>>1847961i have not seen that many chill people in queue, most of the time they're playing with their own stack too
which colors do you use for the teams? for me it's orange and red
What's the reasoning behind the pass being literal dogshit? Even with the 600 R6 refund it's most definitely not worth it.All skins are dogshit, dogshit boosters, dogshit charms it just fucking sucks.Every other battle pass works because the stuff in it is GOOD, who the fuck is buying this shit?
>>1849558I don't know a single person who likes these. Even among my normie friends.
>>1848888Switch to orange and blue ASAP.When the enemy team's gadgets are blue, you can see any claymores placed way easier. Pro players have the orange/blue color scheme for that very reason
>>1849558I've been playing R6 for a crazy long period, and the only battle passes I've bought in this entire time have been the "Demon veil" and "Celebration" BPs.Rainbow 6 just has godawful battle passes, if you want better battle passes you're just going to have to play an entirely different game. :/
>>1849558yeah, it's actually shit
>>1849558Ubisoft has the WORST artists. Probably because they're 90% women.
>>1849953>>1850240We're held back by the boomer tactical bros. If the art department is not constrained by realism like what we've seen from the Valkyrie elite, the cosmetics would have been Valorant-tier. Actually, it could even surpass Valorant because Siege has character skins.You can shut all the naysayers up by having a toggle enemy skins button. Street Fighter 6 figured this out.
>>1849950during my 1300 hours of gameplay I died from claymores only like 3 times
why are frags so inconsistent>throw frag under a castle barricade>50/50 chance of actually destroying it>traps and barbed wire on a window>frag only clears the barbed wire>throw a frag at a reinforcing defender>it kills them despite the reinforcement being 90% up
>>1850384That's bullshit and you know it, if they gave a fuck about that they would never make the fucking faggot pink skins or the retarded cripple operators.
This game is the strongest argument for kernel-level anti-cheat. I don't care if they read my files or whatever, I don't store anything personal on my gaming PC, I just want fair games for everyone
>>1850644The only solution for cheaters is dedicated servers so admins can ban niggers with 70% HS rate and 5 KD. I don't want ubishart having kernel level access to my PC.
>>1850651And alienate the console audience? You're retarded
>>1850674consoletards deserve nothing but death desu
>>1850684nah
>>1850689arent you too busy watching that coke addict zoome jinxi or something?
>>1850674>you'll alienate the console audience!Good

>>1850790stop using bigoted websites sister that doesnt fit with your open mindedness
>>1850790>zoomzoom memetoo obvious
>>1850751me howny
>mfw i see the battlepass
They should honestly implement original R6's autoaim into this game. That way there's no distinct advantage to mouse and keyboard anymore so they don't have to spend time on detecting cronus or xim and instead focus on actual cheats.
Macie is peak schizokinohttps://x.com/SwazR6/status/1944098008326353248
>>1851876KEK
>>1851876>What 60K Hours in Siege Looks Like
>>1851597kys consoletrannydo you need autoplay too? why bother opening the game even?
>>1851876Damn do I feel bad for Macie. His entire livelihood is tied to a game he clearly no longer has any actual passion for, Jesus.He's also in a really bizarre spot where he's absolutely better than most non-pro Champs gamesense and knowledge-wise, but not good enough mechanically to hang with actual pro Champs. If I were Macie, I'd just say fuck it and invest in becoming a pro player.That's the only aspect of Siege that would feel like an entirely different game for Macie AND he could get even better at Siege while making some money on the side, in addition to the streamer money he already makes.Why the fuck isn't he a pro already??
>>1853163Just imagine how fucking far he could go as MacieJay.DZ
>>1853163>Why the fuck isn't he a pro already??Being a pro takes over your entire life. Constant scrims, aim training, replay reviews, strating, etc and you spend more time with your team than your friends and family. Macie is getting old and he doesn't have the mental fortitude for it. His aim is average at best for his rank and he gets depressed easily.Compare him to someone like Canadian who is similar in a lot of ways being one of the oldest players in pro league with below average gunskill but he's a good leader and has the drive and confidence that Macie does not.
>>1853186Damn, you succinctly tore Macie a new one lol. Honestly, thinking hard about it, I really do have to say I agree with you. Still- it's a shame Shitnadian is able to continue getting carried in pro league while Macie is contemplating suicide in his solo games.Such is life, I suppose
>MacieJay in prothis mfer is considered old and washed af in the context of pro league you goober. i'm pretty sure he's never even been close to popping off / MVP in various entertainment streamer matches and such over the years
>>1852878how can you call me that when i actually played the OG trilogy? i even played the bizarre console ports
>>1853341not a single soul gives a shit about that, this is a competitive gamego kill your dumb bots on your boomer faggot games and fuck off
>literal get out of jail free card
>>1854567but enough about the sexy albino lady
I wonder how many retards are playing this dual front dogshit mode, I hope at least a full team of people got fired for that.
>>1855628It's free so more than you would think
Is the loot pool on these packs ONLY the stuff shown under "collection" and not the general alpha pack pool?
>>1855724right
>>1855955It's even more worthless than what I thought then, damn.I was considering buying the pass just for the packs, but literally every single skin in that collection is awfully ugly.Even if I got the whole shit for free I wouldn't use anything in it.
>>1855966honestly a good decision. skip this season pass
>>1855724disgusting aspect ratio
is varsity sociopathic? his dead eyes creep me out
What did ubisoft mean by that?
>>1855393maybe if her ability didn't sound like a helicopter spinning up from 50m away she'd be more viable
It's fucked up that mute doesn't have any cool operator portraits to buy.
What are the gold attachment skins available for purchase in the siege market? I've been struggling to find one.
>>1857595iirc Lifeblood Flower the best attachment skin match for gold, except the laser sight part (different pattern)
>>1857579nothing tops picrel
>>1857666Does anyone who have the balaclava ever use him unmasked? lmao
>>1857664I bought that one but the silencer is blue and the laser sight has a odd blue/white pattern thing...
>>1857667i'd use it but the credits i got from selling my dogshit alpha pack cosmetics could only cover the portrait. now that i think about it i think the 120 credits i got from the free pass could help
Why so many people use Holo A? It's way too thick compared to the other options.
>>1857716aura
>>1857716aura>>1857742that's what I'm sayin!
>>1857595>>1857664It's a slightly odd feeling knowing that the lifeblood flower and year of the rabbit attachment skins are among the most high-priced, sought after attachment skins on the R6 marketplace, and I got both of them immediately when they were respectively released lol.Lifeblood flower was from the demon veil battle pass, and year of the rabbit was from a limited time promotion celebrating the Chinese new year, and if memory serves me correctly, I bought it with renown.It's a real shame I wasn't around for the ultra rare skins and attachments like Glacier, chroma streaks, aki no tsuru, etc.:/
Which one brehs? The cool GitS or the gyattmachina?
>>1857716>Why so many people use Holo A?smallest center dot
>>1857716can't stand the red dots and the reflexes only work for me on certain guns. i do use holo b and c a lot too though
why is siege so fun ?
>>1858582It's the most unique FPS in the market atm
>>1858590splitgate 2 tho?
I haven't played r6 in a while, they've added the X to the name on Steam, was there a big update or something? Why did they do it? Also they've changed the thumbnail on Steam that shows the old, normal operators, which could mean that they've added some sort of a "Classic" game mode without all the magical/unrealistic shit they've been adding throughout the years but I don't believe they would do that, so what is it?
>>1858607they literally added a league of legends skin for valkyrie
>>1858607CS2 esque update dropped with y10s2. it's mostly a visual overhaul with some new gameplay elements like fire extinguishers and the explosive gas pipes.people have deemed it as a failure due to the game being riddled with cheaters atm and the sheer amount of gamebreaking bugs that have appeared with it but it's just pretty much just a graphics update with some extra stuff so there was not much to expect in the first placealso no one's playing the new gamemode because it's not fun
>>1858620idk man aside from cheaters, the gameplay's the best it's ever been
>>1858622i can't tell how good it is because my fps tanks on any map that isn't oregon sized but yeah i'm having fun, clash rework has me playing a lot of thatcher and i love him
>>1858625i genuinely can't tell why people are having such poor performance, i have 200+ FPS on a mid-range rig on very high, maybe they should optimize the new graphics more
>>1858607bunch of irrelevant sloppa, lower performance, cringe skins, red outline on enemies, niggerlicious balance, so onif youre not yet addicted stay away
>>1858635fuck off doomer
>>1858666did you manage to type that by yourself or did you need a red outline on your keyboard to find it?
>>1858674why do you have an issue with the very faint outline on enemies? you'd have a heart attack playing valorant
>>1858676I hate you retarded fucking zoomers who never even played siege when it was released and now need to compare it to the biggest fucking slop available in the market.If you want to turn the game into retarded zoomershit why don't you just play the game that already caters to your retarded audience?
>>1858682you "retvrn" guys are so fucking cringe, siege has always been a super arcadey multiplayer spin-off, this is simply the logical evolution of the game, if you want tactical shit play modded raven shield and rogue spearalso this "zoomer" has probably played more tom clancy's games than you
>>1858692>probably played more tom clancyAre you the same retard asking for auto aim on PC? lmao i won't even bother replying.
>>1858697why would i want auto-aim in a game with one-tap headshots?
>>1858635>t. ember rise shitter
>MUH OLD SIEGE
>>1858846
>>1858846Are night maps still a thing? Redownloaded and played a few games yesterday
>>1859002>Are night maps still a thing?I wish. They got rid of them years ago.One of the only things I truly miss from old siege.
>>1859002not for a while now. rumours are circulating about them being added back in y10s4 though
>teambased tactical fps that requires coordination and teamwork to win>noone fucking calls out, pings, or talks anymoretempted to just go back to playing other games. i dropped outta this shit for 3 years and now everyone plays like monkeys.
>>1859058>requiresnowadays? not so much (and that's not a good thing)
>>1859058The only time I've ever seen true, tactical Siege being played is in pro league. I've been playing since Crimson heist, and it's STILL rare to end up on teams that give accurate callouts and yellow pings.Hell, nobody even fucking uses the goddamn communication wheel that was recently added.Siege is chalked, if you want cooperative teammates just play in a stack every single time you boot up the game or join the pro league/scrimming scene lol
>>1859188i started in 2018. it used to be the norm to get people just cooperating. id rather get tortured by the cia than play pro league or scims.>1859079>(and that's not a good thing)a fucking blink monkey wouldve been able to tell that its not a good thing, retard
>>1859188The new ping system is pointless. It's just too slow to be practical in combat. Voice commands would have been better.I'd say about 30% of the time I get teammates who communicate and I'm around emerald MMR.
what's up with the absurd amount of niggers not even trying to speak english? I used to be that almost everyone spoke it, now like 50% of the playerbase just speaks their native tongue no matter what
>>1859237there are regional servers in siege...so if you have a bunch of foreign language speakers, the logical conclusion is you don't live in an area where English is the primary language
>>1859317yeah of courseI'm playing on the EU serverNowadays I see and hear shitloads of italian, french, germanFor some reason they refuse to speak english; it hadn't been that bad before I have come back a few weeks ago.
Pengu, considered quite possibly the best pro in the entirety of R6 pro league, has been getting mocked and insulted by his ranked random teammates in solo queue who think they're actually better than him. The current siege playerbase cannot be anymore dogshit, and this proves to me that 95% of the """high""" ranked players in this game are the most egotistical, shitty people imaginable.Just delete this game, Ubisofthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_OnvW0YoBU
>>1859442tl;dr solo queue sucks and everyone knows it. it's always been terrible.if you don't have friends to play with you are at the mercy of jynxzi zoomers
>>1859237English isn't even the most spoken language in the places where it's an official language
>>1859442Speaking of penguhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/qZ8gqA2FkIwThoughts?
>>1860255The overall message of:>Because an alternative is provided, players are less likely to use a mic and learn proper calloutsYes I agree. It's a crutch novice players use for sure ("On ping!") which is inferior to proper callouts. Most players develop comms at better ranks / over time anyways though. New wheel is pretty shit, but I consider yellow pings a part of the game at this point. At the very least it still adheres to a pillar of Siege which is sharing information (someone has to operate the cam, a player is indicating a point of interest, etc.).
From the perspective of drones and player-placed cameras, you have to allow that freedom and risk & reward. The various sneaky / hidden drone spots in Siege are part of discovery, learning curve, etc. Having an indicator that you're visible on cam or being yellow pinged would be a huge unwarranted nerf to the camera util aspect of Siege.
i've seen retarded ESLs tell dudes to stfu because they don't know english on more than one occasion. mfw siege immigrant crisis is unironically upon us
you guys hear about what the pro did? kek
>>1860255Pretty bad take, honestly. Pengu gets to say that because he regularly plays with pros that properly use comms and have a non-stop dripfeed of solid intel.You, the average player, will not. And if 70% of average players in most ranked lobbies can't even be bothered to give ANY callouts, how will removing yellow pings for the average player make comms any better?
>>1860687Not to mention, he only starts up that rant against yellow pings after being so locked-in that he accidentally ignores a zero cam that was visibly right on his screen.C'mon now
>>1860691>ignores a zero cam that was visibly right on his screenpengu uncs.... we're washed
>>1860687>how will removing yellow pings for the average player make comms any better?He wants them to have a sound indicator. I think that's fair.>And if 70% of average players in most ranked lobbies can't even be bothered to give ANY callouts, how will removing yellow pings for the average player make comms any better?Yellow pings giving new players an excuse not to learn callouts or communicate is his point.
>>1861192> Yellow pings giving new players an excuse not to learn callouts or communicate is his point.You say that like not giving a shit about learning callouts is exclusive to new players lol. Nowadays in Siege, to know where you are on any map, all you have to do is look at the text underneath the bottom of your compass that reads out your location on screen. Innumerable players, both high ranking AND low ranking, refuse to be bothered with even having to read that out. I'm glad Pengu's idea will never be implemented, the last thing Siege needs right now is for even less players to use pings as it is
after playing for ~300 hours i would most definitely pump 5 kids into mira if given the chance. gameplay is alright too i guess
>>1861742this but nomad
I unironically think removing 1shs would not only improve combat, but would help encourage tactical play. Tactical play suffers hugely due to the fact that almost any tactical mistake can be rectified with good enough aim, so people become too lazy to try strategy when they can just gun their way out of a bad position
>>1863604OSHS is easily the worst aspect of this games gunplay. Proniggers think its the one thing that makes the game unique though so it'll never get removed
>>1863604>making guns worse would make tactical gameplay matter morewe've been over this alreadythe exact opposite happens
>>1863604Even though one shot headshots can be annoying, what you're forgetting is this: You know those sweaty champ-level Ash players that tryhard in quick play? They can one shot headshot you, sure, but it goes both ways- you can also do the exact same to them.Like it or not, on some level, one shot headshots equalize the playing field across ranks, whether they're accidental or on purpose.
Gonna chime in here and let y'all know about the latest rumors: apparently, next seasons ALL defenders are losing access to acogs except for the ones that use dmrs.If true, selfish Doc mains are about to get totally dumpstered lmao
>>1863959big if true
Killing niggers with the BOSG is better than cumming.
What is this attacker protection thing I keep seeing
this or valorant? i only have time for 1
>>1864324This easy
>At ubisoft HQAlright folks, let's stop jerking off to our wives getting blacked! It's time for the new operator.Now listen here... what if the whole gimmick was... to abuse ping and peakers advantage??? Isn't that incredible? Woah! Make her a fucking lesbian or whatever quota we have to fill it too because who gives a shit!
>>1864865just throw an impact/c4 dummy
>>1864865>>1864931The most retarded thing about Osa that understandably causes a lot of butthurt confusion: Throw an impact at his shield while he's holding it? It won't break. Throw the same impact at his shield when he's set it down? It breaks.
>>1865037Another thing that fucking pisses me off: Ash's breaching rounds can destroy black mirrors, while somehow Zofia's breaching rounds and Flores's exploding drones cannot.It's the paradoxical little things like that which Ubisoft never explains, that WILL lose you rounds if you don't know about them beforehand.
>>1865038The critical difference is ash's charge drills into it. It's the drilling that breaks it. I've never tested but does fuze's charge work the same way if placed directly on it? I would expect it to.
>>1865067
i haven't played this game since maverick droppedi still miss its tacticool gameplay but it's just not a solo man's game especially as one with chronically dogshit aim in shooters
>>1865082gitting gud at siege is memorizing all this nerd shit you're playing the wrong game if you want unga bunga tdm.
>>1865038> while somehow Zofia's breaching rounds and Flores's exploding drones cannot.Aktually, an update to the game made a few years ago claims they can now- but I've seen Zofia's charges smack a Mira window and the window is seemingly still intact from the outside?Idk, someone needs to be a real trooper and test this shit out for us
>>1865239
>>1865097>no frens>no aim
Double Frost + Thorn trap kill I did with my friend
>play a few rankeds alone>rank up>play a few rankeds with friends>go back despite having 2.5kd every gameworth it
>>1832571Damn, does anyone else here feel bad for Spoit? Ever since leaving M80, he's been losing and he's never finished 1st place in any event since 2023.How do you think he copes with mechanically being one of the absolute best players in pro league, while forever losing?
>>1866319im always amazed how people fall for the dumbest frost mat placements
>>1866412Is there a way to free cam while watching a replay?
>>1866381I think hell be fine continuing to stream and be "the guy" when it comes to siegeBut it goes to show that you can have all the aim in the world and it wont mean shit unless you have good team skills in this game
>>1866452Can't wait for stompn to end up being forced to realize that once he faces NA/Brazil (Especially Brazil)
>>1866381Honestly, this just reinforces to me why Beaulo is one of the GOATs. Beaulo was basically everything Spoit should've been by now, and Spoit, for whatever reason, has just been getting way too unlucky with his teams to have any professional merit. Bro literally has a better YouTube career than he does in Pro league lol
>get to emerald>every match is now cheatersguess thats enough siege for this season...
Silver is harder to get out of than Plat
>>1867222there is no "silver" there is no "plat"ranked 2.0 is retarded
attacker safeguard is the worst this ever
>>1867768What does it do?
>>1867793in quick matches, for 10 seconds after the prep phase you can't run out as a defender and all attackers are straight up invincible meaning a lot of the spawn peeks are impossible to do
Is it just me or is the BOSG really bad? A tachanka just tanked a shot to the chest 2 feet away from me what the FUCK.I've already noticed it only deals like 40 damage from far away but that nigga could suck my dick from that distance and he still tanked it.
money money money
>>1868036He might have been wearing rook armor, you shot him in a limb, or he had overheal. It does 125 damage up to 25m.
>>1868097> He doesn't have Melusi unlockedHOLYFAGGOT
>>1868242I don't unlock blacks, sorry.
>>1868244Damn bro, you really showed those black people by not unlocking a video game characterSave some aryan pussy for the rest of us, Nick Fuentes
>>1868363Thanks sis, I'll try.
>>1868368No prob, queenMake sure you give your hillbilly sister another good dicking tonight
>>1868376I can't have that much sex in one day, I'd offer her to you but she's probably not your type as she's not a cripple transgender nigger with vitiligo.Maybe next time.
>>1868377> I can't have that much sex in one day*Or everFixed that sentence for you, my boy :)
>>1849558Ubisoft doesn't know how to design good battle passest. for honor player
so uhh cheating has been at a bad level again right?*sigh*
>>1832571I just wanna let you all know right now, after having this happen to me for the 3rd time this week:If you're butthurt enough for any reason to bring up rank in an unranked match, you are dogshit regardless of your rank. I'm so goddamn tired of hearing whiny, egotistical Emerald players swearing up and down how much better at Siege they are than me after losing one standard unranked match where I'm relaxed and not tryharding.Motherfuckers, Emerald is a filler rank that you made it to with an overall KD of 0.85 after 130 matches this season. Rank !=skill, shut up for fuck's sake. I swear to god I'm going to turn off all chat from now on
>>1878672Pic related to my rant btw.
>>1878672>has had allchat on this entire timewell that explains everything you just said
>>1866412its an ash player, they're dumber than a bag of rocks
>recently get back into for honour>first time I've launched ubishit in years>see an anon from the old siege generals still on my friendslistwonder if you're still around, two euro ela
Rengoku is back. Get your dope Japanese shit while it's hot.>>1878672>couldn't handle the bantzYeah Siege community has a lot of toxic egotistical fucks. There is a mute function friend, else learn to deal with it and talk shit back lol
you can get Fuze bundle from twitch drops
>>1881694> Yeah Siege community has a lot of toxic egotistical fucks.That's true, I know- but have you ever noticed how the ones that usually get butthurt over the most low-stakes match imaginable where no MMR is on the line are usually always ranked Plat-Emerald?When's the last time you've ever been shittalked by a Champ in unranked who's viscerally having a keyboard meltdown?
>>1881698Just the Fire-Touched Weapon Skin left for me. I'm not gonna spend any renown for the packs, rather just wait for the new schizo Halloween shit.Too bad next season's event is also the MUTE Protocol one, I really dislike both the gameplay and the cosmetics, but the new gimmick might be decent...
>>1832571Lmao how is this game still going?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkwKhXafhfoI ain't watching 7 minutes of a br*tish fatty speaking... how do I claim the two Rengoku packs? I got the first one as free gift
>>1883505Aight nevermind it's the weekly challenges as usual. Weird because the in-gam tab only says you get the points, while the other challenge is pretty clear that you'll get the points+headgear.
>>1832571Daily reminder: START USING SUPPRESSORS ON EVERY GUN YOU CAN CONTROL RECOIL-WISE.SUPPRESSORS NO LONGER HAVE THE DAMAGE NERF.USE THEM AND WATCH YOUR ENEMIES PANIC BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE ANY QUEUES ON WHERE YOU'RE SHOOTING FROM.My k/d skyrocketed overnight with this one, simple trick!!!

The limb damage nerf is fucking dogshit. Now it's harder than ever to kill literally anyone that uses a shield, why the fuck does Ubisoft cater to shield-shitters so much?? The only way to kill a shield player now in a 1v1 is either nitro, hope you get a lucky melee kill, or pray you get a good headshot on them. Spamming melee on Monty and trying to kill him via shooting his exposed feet/lower thighs no longer works anymore.What the fuck, man?
>>1891647>why the fuck does Ubisoft cater to shield-shitters so muchbecause defense is overpowered and shields are their bandaid solution
>>1891647>why the fuck does Ubisoft cater to shield-shitters so muchconsoleshitter game, next patch you'll get a ping with the precise location of the person shooting you alongside an even brighter glow that you can see through the walls (""""player""""feedback said the current glow was too faint and they/them were still getting killed by meanies hiding in the darkie corners of the map)
so do twitch drops actually work?I figured the number of cybershit packs I got in a year was suspiciously low, but from this new event I didn't get anything yet. Is it supposed to be delayed?I remember ubisoft had a page where you could see packs you got from twitch, is it gone now?
>>1894556shouldn't be anything broken.make sure accounts are linked. claim the drops in the twitch app/browser (not "automatic," you need to click to claim the drops). wait a little before you check in-game, sometimes it's not immediate.
tourist herewhy is a mainstream game like siege stuck in a general like /vm/
>>1894629We used to have a comfy general on /vg/ but the tranny operators, global ability meta, and fortnite skins killed interest for this game.

Spoit beat Stompn AGAIN, but this time as pro versus another pro. That's all I wanted to see, G2 vs. SR. In fact, that's literally the only match in pro league I've wanted to see since the handful of times Beaulo and Spoit squared off. (Which turned out to be a disappointment, considering how Beaulo beat Spoit in PL all but once before retiring again)Wake me up when SI '26 is here

Who's our bet for winning EWC?G2 looks to be really on point so far.
>>1899235EWC = Best of one mickey mouse tournament.Invitationals will 110% prove whether or not G2 is in a new golden age with Stompn.G2 looks good on paper, but they struggled with Shopify Rebellion, which implies that they may end up meeting their match against DarkZero and SSG in the future. Especially considering how SSG is the best team in NA right now
>>1899235eh, should be a sure G2 win
>>1899211This is wild
Stompn is kinda cool tbf
>>1899597Yeah, maybe if you're underage and retarded. Being a mature adult is realizing that eSports, while cool, are filled to the brim with spergy nerds who have zero relevance in the real world
I only got drops for 1st day this is such a shitshow lol
>>1900158You sure you didn't already have those skins? They're like 4 years old
G2 ain't winning this
G2 got 3-0'd by Team Secret lmao.Chalk those boys, they ain't winning SI next year simply because they couldn't even win EWC's B01 nonsense. Stompn = Great, but ultimately overhyped and I'm thinking he's going to be the next Spoit. A mechanical beast that stays losing when it counts the most
>>1901058Stompn is impressive for his first LAN but yeah consoletards are delusional if they think he's gonna carry G2 to victory. G2's unpredictable playstyle is good but they throw when it matters. If they can refine their playstyle a bit further I can see them making it but not yet.
>>1901058>>1901080Beaulo = One of the greatest ever because he was a decently successful rookie that would go onto win multiple championships, dominate Brazil, and win SISpoit = Excellent rookie, won mvp of the year, fell off and hasn't won shit important since STOMPN = In a pure world, would be the perfect mixture of Bo and Spoit, but is probably going to follow Spoit's trajectory
>didn't get Nomad's eliteSad

>>1902825I don't think that was ever the case but when it was, Season 0 definitely had some of that.I've seen some of the changes with Siege X and I can't think of anything I like about it.
the amount of recoil macros im seeing this season is crazy. it's like 40% of players in emerald up.

>>1901058Just caught up. At least G2 weren't totally limp, but couldn't secure a map.But Stompn... the most positive on G2 for all 3 maps, including crazy moments like ace to clutch Round 1 on Nighthaven.You just can't underrate him, he's on the level of any top player in their prime. His only accolade so far #1 EML for a season, but just eye test the solo player, he's insane.
>>1904641> You just can't underrate him, he's on the level of any top player in their prime.INSANE take. He's barely even been a pro, and as good as he's been, there's been a few pros that have had better debuts as rookies than he has. (Spoit, Defuzr, etc.) I don't think anyone with a brain in their head by now is underestimating Stompn, but outside of "Mickey mouse" tournaments- in actual serious tournament where long, drawn-out slugfests between teams are to be expected...it's going to be enormously difficult to ascertain whether or not Stompn will holdup properly.The upcoming Munich major should be a sampler of his potential before Invitationals, where he's going to absolutely have to prove his worth on the grand stage.I'd wager by any measure you figure, the Siege invitationals in February WILL prove whether or not Stompn is the real deal. With all due respect: I don't think he's going to be the savior of G2, and he's most definitely not going to be another Pengu. We'll be seeing what happens, but I wouldn't be holding my breath for him in the future, realistically
>>1904689I'd honestly wager that in the most idealistic scenario: Stompn will be about as accomplished as Shaiiko, but much like Shaiiko will fall short of winning S.I. time after time unless the entirety of G2 (Assuming Stompn stays with them in the future) locks the absolute fuck in and stops relying on hero plays. Again, time will tell, but let's not hold our breaths here

>>1905970>If Ubisoft doesn't fix the recoil on the Reaper MK2, they are being retards actively giving multiple operators the worst sidearm in the entire game.this is true. from the leaks i've seen, the "buff" it's getting is like a 5% less rabid horizontal kick and the horizontal kick is also going to start a little later. it should have no recoil imo, it's way too underpowered to be this uncontrollable

Blackbeard deserves even worse
how are we in 2025 and we STILL aren't allowed to have custom profile pictures?
>don't play R6 in over 2 years>see new shit reveal>ubisoft removes scopes for defenders yet againWhy do people plsy this game? Ubisoft balancing is like key jangling in front of the face. They keep removing shit and then bring it back just to remove it yet again and they tell you its bAlAnCe
>>1913610They keep ACOGs defenders are overpoweredThey remove ACOGs jynxzi zoomers shit their pantsThey can't win
>>1913633Lol we're gonna be going back to era when people would solely pick shotgun Vigil for spawnpeeks now.Also: while I'm not certain the new operator Denari is going to be overpowered, I can tell he's going to be superbly annoying. Imagine how much of a pain it's going to be to get through a hatch that's covered by Aruni's and Denari's lasers simultaneouslyPossible W new defender that might end up being metaPerhaps the first new meta defender since Azami (And no, I don't think Tuburao is meta. His gadget is shit, it only stalls any breaching for a few minutes. Just bandit trick and Tuburao is absolute dogshit in comparison outside of his DMR)
>>1913685*since FenrirCorrection
>>1913685I get the feeling he was designed as an indirect buff to thatcher and twitch.
>>1913730And Brava, maybe. But Brava is alleged to only destroy Denari's lasers and not hack them. This is interesting, I gotta say. I think Denari may be a great, if not meta, defender. And if he turns out to be meta? We're gonna see alot of cool shit done with him in pro league!
>>1913685I've seen some youtube short about them adding 2.5x to Aruni and Tubarao but I assume that's bullshit? Can't be bothered to watch the reveal.>>1913730>>1913844I can't see how Twitch and Brava can be good to deal with him when you need 6 shots to neutralize it, that's like entire Brava's kit just to get rid of one gadget. Might as well bring Fuze. IQ is gonna be useful too.

>>1919218(Imagine sights was struck through with a single line)
>>1850384>If the art department is not constrained by realismThis game stopped being semi believable realistic the moment they added echo with an invisible drone granted its no longer invisible but still it used to be and they've just kept doubling down every new operator since with more outlandish outfits (I think Azami is the worst offender), more retarded operators like the cripple and the blind albino astronaut because those totally fight terrorists and even more fantasy land gadgets.Even before that you had women in the game in things like GIGN and GSG 9 from the start which both have never had a single woman in a combat role and EMP grenades, active defenses do not exist like they do in game if you really wanna be picky.
>>1919344ubisoft's art and writing teams are all women which is why every new operator and skin bundle is always gaudy fortnite garbage and the lore is so bad even normalfags laugh at it.
What with R6tards obsession with realism?

>>1938320Alyttleton has setups for every ranked map. They're not perfect but they're a good starting point. Pro player setups are better. I recommend fett, r6mint, and braction for those. Some walls are personal preference or depend on your strat so don't feel like you have to follow every setup to the letter.Braction again for general strategy guides. Kaosx has some older videos but he has a high level understanding of angles and perspective and if you want to git gud at taking gunfights he's the guy to watch. Main thing to focus on as a new player is communication, playing with your team, and learning how every OP works.
Is this anime sleeve wearing bald ahh Gooner the worst top ten champ? I swear every time I've watched him he looses his 1v1s and only salvages KD when his team are up numbers or buy holding staircases with secondary shotties, also desperately runs Infront of his teammates to try get the last kill.Only redeeming quality is he doesn't jiggle peak.
>>1938320Don't copy YouTuber/pro player setups if your a new player, your better off just boxing yourself in and sitting in a corner more or less. Hell I'd even say if you got some quick play sweatlords on your team reinforce their gay little rotates and peaks, 90% of the time their going to go roam and leave you the new player exposed with four different angles to get shot from and no Idear where to stand or look. Learn the game and the maps keep it simple then you can start blowing holes all through the map when you know what's going on.Nothing more cringe the some sped nigger named XxXblxrrrXxX blowing holes all through the map and then playing runnouts and spawn peaks and dying off of site.
>>1940235He also prerecords his gameplay and streams it, even restreaming live streams from no less than three days prior.
Yes Mira I did indeed break open your windows on purpose for no reason, and I'm not sorry!

>>1948513>playing shooters on consoleit's like you're proud of being retarded.
>>1947945> those operatorsKeep baiting
>>1947945Operators suggestions are welcome as well
>YOL 2025>+10 years of live service gayming>vitiligo operator>tranny operator>crippled (???) operator>no big nigganice game siegebabs
>>1947930>>1949522Operator suggestions will not save you in the least if you are fundamentally bad at the game.From now on:- Play siege more, with the intent of getting BETTER. Learn from every loss.- Practice briefly in the shooting range with the training dummies on "headshot only" to hone your recoil control before every single session of Siege. - Focus on aiming around head height at all times.- Learn to quick peek, strafe peek, or hashom peek. (I wouldn't recommend crouch peeking, as that exposes too much of your body and knife peeking is outdated now)- Swing in your gunfights first. Do these things religiously, and you'll naturally find yourself getting better at the game through experience, effort, and reputation.
>>1950606*and repetition.
>>1832571Bros.I just came from an unranked match on PC, and a dude in my lobby had a peak seasonal ranked kda of 1.88 after 250 games, but in that same season, ONLY ever reached Gold 1 at the absolute highest rank.How the fuck do players like that exist? Is this the stereotypical "baiter" I keep hearing about?? And crazily enough, I looked at his stats overall as a player: he's got a playtime of 909 hours with an overall kda of 1.70, a headshot percentage of 56%, BUT an overall winrate of- get this- 34%.What are the conditions that can make someone play like that? Great in gunskill, but apparently not good enough in gamesense or comms to continually win matches??Say what you will about me, but I'd rather be Champ with a peak ranked kda of 1.10 than Gold with a peak kda of almost 1.90. Like what the actual fuck?
>>1950606Thanks anon the first one I've started to do already but the rest is something I need to start with
>>1950606>Swing in your gunfights first.What does this mean?
>>1951189I assume he means use peeker's advantage.
>>1951169yeah those are pretty crazy stats to have that low of a win rate and rank. giving him the benefit of the doubt, terrible solo queue luck or he's carrying lower skill friends in a stack. or as you suspect, baiter habits. no util, no site setup, no drones, no comms, but the rest of team is dead he can bait +2 kills from reckless enemies
>>1951189Siege's netcode and ping difference results in milliseconds advantage for the player "swinging," (aiming and moving). You see the opponent for a split second before they can realistically react from their perspective.Obviously you're still not gonna win 100% of gunfights just shoving your head towards enemies because of all the other factors, but the mentality of "swing or be swung," is at the core of the game which is why anon mentions it as a general tip.
>>1951704Peeker's advantage isn't unique to siege. Every multiplayer FPS has it.
>>1951815Yeah, but it's way more noticeable in Siege out of all popular FPS games. Is peeker's advantage as bad in Counter-strike? I know for a fact it's nowhere near as bad in Apex, TF2, Call of duty, etc.
>>1952351it's the same shit everywherethe main difference is the time to kill in those games
>>1952351>Yeah, but it's way more noticeable in SiegeIt's really not. CS seems better because it has no leaning.
>>1952389> Peeker's advantage in Siege isn't that bad, but CS clearly seems to have less peeker's advantageThat's a roundabout way of saying peeker's advantage dominates Siege and is noticeably a shitty issue, anon
>>1952624>I don't understand perspective: the post
>>1952628*yawn*Come back sometime with an actually valid response that proves peeker's advantage isn't the absolute worst in R6.You won't, of course, because you can't.COPE.
>>1952632Not to mention, the aggressive issues with peeker's advantage unique to Siege are made worse if you're dueling someone using a high firerate gun. If you're facing off against an R4C Ash and she gets lucky, she's going to get a free headshot on you from around the corner/ledge/bomb that you peeked from behind the safety of. This happens all the fucking time in Siege.> Quick peek a high fire rate gun> On your screen, you made it back successfully to cover> On the enemy screen, they shot the empty space where your head ONCE was, so you immediately dieNow replay this exact same scenario with a low firerate gun, and you'll survive on medium or low health.Fuck outta here with trying to gaslight me into thinking Siege doesn't have the biggest issues with peeker's advantage out of any competitive FPS on the market currently

hit Champ for the first time last season solo queueingAt this point I'm so institutionalized that I do much worse playing in a stack. The over-calling and shitty plans distract me >>1952624>>1952351It's more noticeable because siege has the lowest time-to-kill of any of those games, the actual amount of time delay is probably about the same.The real issue 1shs which make shooting first so essential. Learning to play around/take advantage is the only way to fight in siege. This means: hold tight angles to punish blind swings, swing first when you've got the drop on someone, and lots of head-height prefires
>>1957454>hit Champ for the first time last season solo queueinggj bro>over-calling and shitty plans distract melol. well, i guess just turn down the mic volumes and play the detached solo role
>>1957454You hit Champ solo?? How many matches did it take you, and what was your kd for your Champ season? Can you post your R6tracker? I need some motivation lol. Any further tips?I'm trying to solo queue to Emerald for the umpteenth time, and all my teammates so far have either been one of three things:1.) Literal potatoes that have probably never hit Gold in their entire Siege career2.) Seemingly competent high ranked players (Emerald and above), that don't take the ranked match we're in seriously, get overtly-cocky, start talking shit to everyone, and lose the match with a hugely negative kd3.) Actually good players whose peak ranks are unknown without checking R6tracker, they don't say shit at all whatsoever, frag out, and occasionally agree with my suggested takes/pushes over the mic or in text chat
I don’t think I can learn this game moreI feel like if I’m out skilled it’s so obvious and I have 0 chances to learn from the mistakesRarely I’ll be on equal footing and that’s when the game shines
I HATE CONSOLE PLAYERSI HATE CONSOLE PLAYERSI HATE CONSOLE PLAYERSI HATE CONSOLE PLAYERS
>>1959105siege's learning curve is a brick wall you really have to put in the effort to git gudbest way to improve is to just experiment with as many operators and strats as possible and figuring out what works and what doesn't. learning is more important than kd or winrate.
is this game still full of hackers?
>>1959422it goes up and down. not terrible at the moment

>>1961238Yeah, it's called Siege X being free to play which has attracted even more shitters that have greatly diluted the overall skill level of the average, casual R6 playerbase
>>1961238The big list of shitter red flags>Jynxzi charm/background>No microphone>On a controller>Stares at a wall during prep phase>Never plays support>Target bans ops like doc/ash>Either rushes site or baits every round>Always on the opposite side of the map>Doesn't understand basic callouts>Recoil macros>AFKs on a cam when he dies>Either doesn't place utility or dumps it all in one spot
>>1961402Don't forget> Tries to pick shield operators every single fucking round until virtually all shield operators are banned> Picks F2 Twitch instead of DMR, misses every single shot with the F2 at close range
Denari's shotgun is such a piece of shit. What a waste of dev time. I'd take a Baliff over this in literally every single situation.
>>1964222That's because it turns out, Denari is kinda a shit operator overall. :'^) He could've been B-tier at the very least before his laser damage nerfs. Now? He's just bad. His lasers are super easy to tank, and they take too much time to setup.He is completely outclassed by Aruni altogether. He could've been meta if he were at least as good as Aruni, but he never had the chance to be. :/Denari is basically now relegated to throwing his shitty lasers beneath a hatch in order to stall any hatch dropping, while Aruni sets up her own lasers elsewhere. Rest in piss, Denny
>>1964365He's fine, he's a 3 speed that can make lines of sight, has useful utility that combos well with a lot of operators (especially Castle and Aruni) and has a shield. He's Ela upgrade option #3, after Fenrir. But his shotgun is ass.

>>1958440excuse the pony-express reply speed, chrome killed my 4chanX extension took me 287 matches, KD was 1.01 lolhere's my r6 trackerhttps://r6.tracker.network/r6siege/profile/ubi/dr.almond/overviewAs you can see, I'm not much of a fragger, also there's no KD rollback against cheaters :'^)Try not to get demoralized by shitty teams or attacking first. Many teams are beyond help so let yourself practice with guns/ops you want to learn in those matches. I often have to remind myself "this team simply deserves to lose" I'm mute annoying/negative players instantly, even if they're giving calls. Better to have no info and be in a good mood I main support/breach on attack and anchor on defense, because 70% of the playerbase wants to frag/entry and roam/lurk.
>>1964365>has the Fmg-9, deploy shield, and 3-speedhe could literally have no gadget and be strong.As is, his gadget is much better than aruni's because it re-activates quickly and automatically, even if you only use it as a noisemaker (both of their gadgets are glorified noisemakers)If Aruni is better, its because of her gun (she might be, since strong guns 10x more important than gadgets)
>>1968854> he could literally have no gadget and be strong.> As is, his gadget is much better than aruni's because it re-activates quicklyGodawful take, what crack are you smoking? It takes a whole 8 seconds for his lasers to get back up. Denari's lasers are only better than Aruni's in the sense that they cannot be destroyed by non-emp throwables. Aruni will always be able to setup her lasers quicker than the average Denari player fucking around with his trying to come up with a 500 IQ strat lol.The only thing saving Denari right now is his shield and that's about it desu
>>1968849Wow, this is pretty inspiring stuff for anyone grinding out ranked solo. My most pressing question is this: How in the HELL did you manage going from Plat 3 in commanding force, to unranked the next season, and then hit as high as Diamond 5 in Heavy mettle? Surely you must've reached that notorious point in Heavy mettle where ranked 2.0 thinks you're supposed to be hardstuck in Plat and starts giving you 50+/50- RP gain every match, right?How the fuck did you manage to grind through that without at the very least getting held back in Emerald?
>>1968872>It takes a whole 8 seconds for his lasers to get back upNot that anon but compared to Aruni's 30s and it doesn't require someone nearby to reenable it? that's pretty good. The way I see it you pick Aruni for her DMR or if you need to protect other utility from projectiles and you bring Denari if you can cover multiple entrances with 1 laser or you're playing a basement bomb site. I think he has potential for drone denial as well in some situations. That said I do think Aruni is slightly stronger overall.
>>1968906Also to add on denari's gadget can be placed anywhere unlike aruni and it's better for fighting a shield heavy team.
>>1968920A good, shield heavy team either:A.) Has one shield player tank his lasers because they do way less damage now and are no longer an instakillB.) Ignores Denari's lasers, and simply enter elsewhere through another doorway/window/areaC.) Has Monty through an EMP at his lasers and disable them, making way for the other shields.Post-nerf Denari is toothless.
>>1968969*Monty throw
>>1968969it's about the stun not the damage and we're comparing its effectiveness to an aruni gate which is much easier to deal with for shields.>Has Monty through an EMP at his lasers and disable themnot always an option if the emitter is placed far away from the door or in a spot an emp can't reach.
>>1968969explaining that his gadget can be countered, while true, doesn't demonstrate whatsoever how it is worse than Aruni's. Everything you just said applies to aruni gates as well, and aruni gates are even easier to disable, and stay disabled longer
>>1969015Chiming in here as someone with no dog in the fight, if surya gates do more damage than the current damage value of denari's lasers, then I think it's obvious Aruni is the clear winner between the two.More damage + infinitely quicker to setup.Siege needs more fire and forget gadgets on defense because defense regularly gets rushed shortly after prep time is over anyways
>>1968901+50/-50? when I hardstuck It starts giving me +18/-18 or lower, I'm already down to +30/-15 this season at high emerald I took a break that unranked season because I was burnt out and I think that helped a lot, as you can see I've taken big breaks before. Also in commanding force I only played ~100 games, whereas I got emerald the season before that just by grinding more (346 games, oof)Some seasons just go better or worse and I don't really know why, there's definitely an element of luck with hitting streaks to avoid getting stuck (For example I have no idea why I petered out at D5 in prep phase)Maybe insane cope, but I genuinely find some emerald lobbies are harder to solo than diamond. In diamond/champ I can rely on my team to hold angles, watch my back, open wall, anchor, ect.
>>1969562>In diamond/champ I can rely on my team to hold anglesNah no cope, in general I'd agree. When you're a better player, you actually want to play rounds of Siege with the proper pacing / style. Gold-Emerald can be a total shit show of mixed skill players not knowing fundamentals.Idk how your guys' lobbies look like, but on average it seems the solo queue matchmaking often does a 2+3 system, where 2 players tend to be of a higher skill level and the other 3 are from a wider spread pool. Not relevant for stacks ofc
oh and i just encounter cheaters every ranked match recently, will even be on both teams. you guys aren't? lucky if so...
>>1970312I haven't had cheaters on PC so far this season. The tradeoff of course, is that I get teammates that are basically new to the game and have under 400 hours of playtime yet somehow on my team and I'm fucking peak high Emerald.Fuck ranked 2.0, niggaIf I have to see another fraud Plat player on my team with 320 hours as a teammate who plays like the Silver rank he actually and truly is, I'm going to fucking puke
>>1970312I had a cheater in every single lobby back in void edge. I got mmr refund for every single game and my rank was reset back to what I got from placements (completely random rank because placements also had cheaters but you couldn't lose your placements rank).And everyone says cheater situation only got worse. I haven't played ranked ever since.

>everyone is just abusing Acog DMR's on defense
>another massive Denari nerfBut why? What are they even doing with this game?
>>1985378I think the idea is to remove surprise kills like hiding it under frost mats, behind shields, etc. I think it's fine but there needs to be other changes to buff him.
>>1985378Who cares? Denari isn't the game-changing meta operator we hoped he was going to be. Throw his faggot ass in the dumpster already.
>>1983364>everyone is just abusing Acogsame as it ever was
entire team is split up solo pushing do you focus on doing your job or go in with one of the solo entries and hope for some trades?
>>1986432Usually the best choice is to play off your team but it depends on where they're pushing and what Op you're playing.Like if some guy is solo pushing on the other side of the map and you're a hard breacher you should probably focus on the wall first.
>>1986288Higgs?
>>1986432if your job is hopeless (thermite and the wall is electrified with no help) then give up on the job. play for kills.times when i queue with people like that, i will go on Lion, shields, etc. to help the push

>>1988398Not exactly Siege, but thread and board are slow anyways. Are you guys fans of those other Ubi franchises?For me, the general open-world formula works and I enjoy most AC and FC games. Never buy (and good luck if you want to play) Far Cry 5 and New Dawn though, if only for the fact that somehow they fucked loading screens in those games among other issues.
>>1989848Splinter Cell is a great series, besides Conviction which was a change in genre I really didn't like.Far Cry 6 was pretty bad but 2-3-Blood Dragon-4-5 are very fun, it's a pretty simple formula but works well especially if bought for cheap
Anti-cheat update today.
>>1989848I miss old splinter cell, rayman, and their sim games like silent hunter but that's about it. Siege is the first ubisoft game I bought in a very long time and I've spent around $25 total for the game + mtx over the last 8 years. Couldn't give a shit about asscreed or farcry
Just started playing again since the release of Nokk and Warden. Game feels a lot different than it was back in the day. DMRs seem to be the meta on both sides and most of the operators got big changes to them.
>>1990467DMR's are meta since everything attacker weapon got nerfed into the ground and they're the only ACOGs on defense now.
>>1990467>DMRs seem to be the meta on both sidesOffense it's about 50/50 with ARs. DMRs are better for flank watch and long angles, ARs are still superior for pushing.Defense absolutely but I expect ubisoft to take away aruni and tub's acogs very soon since they're the aimbro operator this season.
>>1990670tbf I feel there's been a gradual shift even before the defense magnified scope nerf. DMRs are spread onto decent ops, got buffed against Kiba barriers and soft destruction, and 2 or 3-shot-max upper chest down is solid.But yeah now they're even more meta
>>1990745>I expect ubisoft to take away aruni and tub's acogs very soonidk that'd be a hasty decision. if it's backed up by in-game statistics, fine. but defense completely lacking magnified scopes? i think if you zoom out to the macro, scope restrictions not a very sophisticated solution to the defense versus attacker balance. it's just a weird mechanical (and physical eye sight) nerf to players on the defense. gonna encourage more kids to sit 5 inches from the monitor like pros lol
>>1990787>but defense completely lacking magnified scopes? i think if you zoom out to the macro, scope restrictions not a very sophisticated solution to the defense versus attacker balanceit's been a fundamental issue with siege since day one. It ALWAYS comes back to scopes. Remember in Y1 when everyone was crutching on Jager ACOG and Ubisoft took his knees for it? Defenders should not be encouraged to challenge long angles. If a room is too attacker sided it needs to be changed.Consider how they updated lobby on bank in the rework. They closed up the windows at the top so it's harder to challenge defenders on banana. This forces attackers to full clear the first floor and use the much more dangerous skylight rappel if they want to lock it down. Just do the same on the other maps.ACOGs are too versatile and there's no real way to fix them aside from taking them away or making an operator's kit so horrendously awful that you are throwing if you aren't getting kills. Fixing the maps addresses the issue in a much more elegant way. There are lots of bomb sites that clearly need some work I don't know why Ubisoft is so against small map changes. Pro players aren't going to die if they have to relearn a room occasionally.
I'm so sick of this stupid resource-sink that is Dual Front.
>>1990824hear hear. no idea who that shit is for. i guess we know, F2P crowd, but it's even shit for them so...
im starting to think ubi added bots to multiplayer with how many players just straight up dont react to verbal communication.
>horizontal and angled grip are practically useless especially since recoil has been increased on basically every gun>laser barely gives any benefit compared to the detriment of exposing what angle you're watchingWhat were they thinking with these honestly.

>>1990957not to defend these retards but me and my friend have both had voice chat just simply not work for whatever reasonthis game is fucking broken in every aspect
>>1995915>quit because of cheating problems but tempted to reinstallcheating is still very bad. there's even a shitstorm going on right now in pro league with several challenger league players blatantly walling and admins aren't doing anything about it. outside of that the game has been extremely buggy this season.
>>1832571Bros.I want to be so fucking good at Siege it hurts. Granted, as it stands I'm currently an Emerald player with an overall lifetime ranked kda of 1.25 after almost 2k hours of playtime...but I still don't feel like I'm good enough.I always watch the clean, virtually flawless gameplay of pro players with over 6k hours clocked in such as Pengu, Spoit, Beaulo, Doki, etc and I'm fucking astonished at how anyone can be so incredible. The pros always seem to have rigid, immaculate tracking that is continually at head height, and they can onetap non-pros without even so much as thinking twice about it.How does one get to be on that level in Siege? Is it simply just a matter of investing more playtime and muscle memory? If you or I had 7k hours logged in Siege, could we essentially play like a pro?But then, I look at the popular champ, non-pro content creators like Poxonlox, Athieno, and Varsity...they've got at least 5k hours logged in Siege, but despite being champs, you can see by their lifetime ranked kda they aren't anything special and regularly get shit on in gunfights. Athieno has like a 1.06 lifetime ranked kda, Pox has about a 1.16, etc. Compare that against pros I've mentioned earlier, and you'll see that at the bare minimum they have a lifetime ranked kda of 1.40.How does one actually get to be GOOD at siege, and not just "good"?
>>1997036Further highlighting my point: look at this shit- the stats of Doki, a current professional player for G2 and champ, against Poxonlox, a Siege YouTuber and champ.Doki blows Pox out of the fucking water, in LESS playtime.How is this possible? Does it all come down to just innate talent at Siege over hard work and practice?
>>1997036>I always watch the clean, virtually flawless gameplay of pro players with over 6k hours clocked in such as Pengu, Spoit, Beaulo, Doki, etcPengu's aim is shit, he has said so himself. He is proof you can win a major on gamesense alone.>How does one get to be on that level in Siege?You have to remember these guys are playing the highest level of siege as a full time job. They are going to improve exponentially faster than your average ranked player.>But then, I look at the popular champ, non-pro content creators like Poxonlox, Athieno, and Varsity...they've got at least 5k hours logged in Siege, but despite being champs, you can see by their lifetime ranked kda they aren't anything special and regularly get shit on in gunfightsChamp 2.0 is trivial to get especially with a stack.>How does one actually get to be GOOD at siege, and not just "good"?Good mechanics are nice to have but at the end of the day it doesn't matter how good your aim is if you get crossfired or flashbanged. Champ players crutch on their mechanics.There are numerous examples of mechanics monsters who plateau in tier 3/4 because they don't have the brains for pro league. The most obvious comparison of the ranked and comp playstyle can be seen in beaulo's old frag vids vs how he plays now. All those flashy 1 taps are impressive but they're not consistent. Beaulo has said he is a much better player now because he doesn't put himself in situations where he has to land those shots to begin with. Fett did a good video on this this with W7M as an example.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77C4ERXWGLM&t=80s>How does one actually get to be GOOD at siege, and not just "good"?Get yourself a stack and start grinding scrims 24/7. Review your games, pick out every mistake you can, and never make them again. Learn the power positions on every map and practice them over and over until you master them. Consistency is everything.
>>1997056Obviously natural talent does exist in some degree but I think there are numerous other factors at play here.Content creators aren't trying to necessarily trying to reach the apex of their skill, they're trying to make engaging/entertaining content and so they're not spending hours a day scrimming/aim-training. Also there's the fact that a lot of "pro-players" typically play in a stack with comms and run proper strats that give them even more advantage compared to these streamers who typically play solo.Regardless, you can dump hours into an activity and not improve unless you're actively trying to push your limits. It's very common for people to just auto-pilot as playing too much will burn you out and cause mental fatigue.
>>1997262>> Believing anything negative Pengu says about his own skill at SiegeHe's pretending to be humble, if his aim was actually shit he'd have been about as bad as Canadian during his old, prime G2 eraSpoiler alert: He was not
>>1997463It's relative, is his aim better than the majority of ranked players? yeah.Is it better than most pros? Probably not.
>>1997463
>>1997036>1.25 K/D>Emeraldhere to tell you right now that you aren't being bottlenecked by your aim yetIs the clean gameplay you're watching highlights, or just popping into a stream?I used to see the same highlights and had to pop into real live-play to get a more realistic idea about what is realisticto get really clean aim I assume you need to sit down in an aim trainer, deathmatch, and have some natural talent.
>>1997036>GOOD at siege, and not just "good"?It's a 5-man team game. Most of what you and anons have been talking about is in the context of "How do I, as a single player, get even more kills?" That is only a small fraction of how to look at the game of Siege. You need coordination to lead up to the scenario where the roamer is trapped in X position, and you have 3 guns pinching them so that he dies and none of you take damage. Then you collapse on the next guy, nade him out, guy holding the angle kills him. Default wall is open, so player can hold X cutoff, and others flood in to site, sweeping up the rest. All of that is what truly separates Pros from Casuals beyond raw skill.You just trying to Rambo situations and kill even more is not realistic. 1-hit headshot game, utility on both sides (drone intel, Fenrir / trap gadgets halting you, etc.), you, as a solo body, can be shut down in an instant. Not to say you shouldn't try to improve your crosshair placement, situational awareness, gunfighting skills, etc. But it's a fraction of the game, only a piece of the puzzle. It's a team game with high variability in how the 5 players move, use utility, etc.
>>1997036Add Stompn to your list of Pros to watch. If you are unaware, he dominated on controller and now is in PC Pro League. imo top tier crosshair placement, game sense (important angles, pre-fire, what strategically is happening around him), and decision making.
>>1997963> Add StompnDon't do this lolKid is new as fuck to pro league and people are already jerking him off, it's embarrassing
>>1998514Is Stompn good? YesDoes he have any actual achievements beyond one tournament win? No

We're committed to improving transparency and taking meaningful action on the issues you've raised. Based on your feedback, our upcoming priorities include anti-cheat, balancing, and ranked improvements. You can read about the current status of each below, with more updates coming on the road to Munich Major in November. We want to thank you all for your continued support while we work through these challenges, it means a lot.- Alex Karpazis and Joshua Mills, on behalf of the Siege teamANTI-CHEAT STATUS:>Our systems in Siege X did not keep pace with the surge of cheaters that followed the move to Free Access, though we have made some progress. This is a difficult topic to address without tipping off cheat makers to our next move, so without saying too much here are a few key areas the team is working to improve, backed by additional resources.NEXT STEPS:>Target high profile cheat makers and the use of a single notorious cheat product through advancements in Cheat Detection.>Disrupt marketplace exploits.>Issue permanent bans to players caught using these exploits.
BALANCINGSTATUS:We've heard that updates can feel like all nerfs, no buffs, so we're changing up our approach when unexpected metas form and will prioritize a fun experience. We have high ambitions for larger system changes for the game's balancing, which will go into testing soon.NEXT STEPS:>In patch 3.3 (coming Oct 14) we'll be reverting Denari's nerf. We reacted a little too quickly on tuning him based on what we saw on the test server. Additionally, Denari's Glaive-12 will be buffed. >Solis will be receiving her impact grenades back to make her more fun to play. We can still see her influence in matches and how players use her shotgun for those post-plant situations.>For Y10S4, we can confirm that Thermite, Hibana and Maverick will all be receiving buffs. Ace will have a lot more competition! >Y10S4 will also introduce the Testing Grounds, a place to help us gather initial feedback and test implementation of gameplay features before they're integrated. An Armor and Speed system change for operators will be our first Testing Grounds subject.
RANKEDSTATUS:Ranked 2.0 hasn't hit the mark yet and we're working on major changes. There will be matchmaking updates to start in Season 4 with more meaningful updates on the way.NEXT STEPS:>With Y10S4, matchmaking will get more specific with Rank and squad size factored in.>We are actively developing what we call Ranked Overhaul, with the objective of offering visible Ranked Reward Progression, as well as a visible Skill Progression.>Player consultations are in progress with this new system, and we'll be running workshops during the Munich Major to further refine the design.We aim to have the Ranked Overhaul live in the first half of year 11.
FINAL THOUGHTSWith much of this year's focus on setting a new foundation for updates to come, recent seasonal content has understandably felt lighter, especially for veteran players. We are looking at adjusting our seasonal approach to bring more substance to mid-season updates and we will share more on this topic during the November Munich Major.This update isn't exhaustive, but expect to hear more from us, and please continue sharing your reports, feedback, survey responses and gameplay. Your passion and commitment keep Siege growing. Your priorities are our priorities, and together we'll keep building Siege into the best it can be. We look forward to celebrating our tenth anniversary together!{-}7 The Siege Team
>>2000684>>2000687>solis impact grenades are back>no more freebies for 5 stack niggers
>>2000684>For Y10S4, we can confirm that Thermite, Hibana and Maverick will all be receiving buffs. Ace will have a lot more competition!was this really necessary? as someone who is very consistent with mav and hibana tricking I actually don't find ace that useful unless I want to open a wall that's too dangerous to approach and too slow to open with hibana. what do you guys think?
>>2000687For the love of God, I hope these fabled ranked 2.0 tweaks will actually fix the goddamn matchmaking.Also: Solis/Denari reverts? Who cares, they are badHibana/Mav buffs? Oh no. Be afraid, he very afraidIf Mav gets nades back, I will quit the game lol
>>2000927> If Mav gets nades back, I will quit the game lolWhy is that, anon?? You seriously mean you didn't like it when Mav could singlehandedly get every single reinforcement down by himself regardless of it having bandit's batteries or mute's jammers defending it?Why would you hate such a fair and balanced moster??
>>2000726Eh, the general idea that other hard breachers need more perceived value compared to Ace is valid. Ace has been de-facto #1 hard breach for a while, which implies the others are lacking in their kit / capabilities.
>>2001386he's the easiest to use and has the best gun but I dunno about best hard breacher.
>>2001445Best breacher: Thermite (Biggest hole)Best assault rifle on any breacher: AceBest guns overall on any breacher: Hibana (Rifle + SMG)Hibana is already really fucking good, I am mildly scared of her getting needlessly buffed
>>2001786...Also, this is unrelated: but have you guys noticed how some older operators still don't have any banter? It sucks that we don't get to hear banter from Iana, Finkna, Melusi, Wamai, etc.I wonder if the issue is that Ubisoft simply can't bring back the original voice actors?
Ace is better simply for the fact that you can easily and safely breach quickly, you have your gun up almost immediately.Hibana would be much better if it wasn't for the awkwardness and slow animations of her gadget. She also doesn't feel as necessary for hatch-heavy sites as secondary hard-breaches exist.Thermite is perfectly balanced as is.
>>2001786>Best guns overall on any breacher: Hibana (Rifle + SMG)Her secondary smg is hard to use outside of very close range. I'll take AK-12's 30 round mag and a pistol any day. She's got the most versatile kit but her gadget is painfully slow and easy to bandit/kaid trick. In most situations I'd rather have grim or monty on can openers for hatch heavy sites.If I were to buff any hard breachers I'd make mav's torch radius slightly bigger hole so mav tricking is more consistent. I'd make hibana's gadget interaction faster as a quality of life change (detonation time is still the same) and buff her secondary smg's recoil a little. Lastly I'd make it so you can place breach charges on reinforced walls so hibana doesn't have to risk having her legs blown off clearing the soft wall. Secondary smg buff would have the added benefit of making shotgun primary more viable.
>>2001788I have all the gay lore shit turned off.
>>2001799FAGGOT
>>2001799based based basedHad it off before banter, couldn't stand hearing smoke's stupid line every time I deployed barb wire
