#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.
Wake me up where the first portion of tweaks to Ranked 2.0 arrive next season
I'm peak Plat and should not be fighting Diamonds and Champs, cease with these faggotry Ubishit

learn safe routes to reach the building/roof early.
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

New Thatcher any minute.

It's live. Operation Tenfold Pursuit

>>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.

Just finished watching the reveal panel.
No real apology for the content drought and hacker infestation is unacceptable.
Ubisoft is still not taking this seriously. How many times have we heard this before
>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
