What is the current state of RS6? I remember it being dogshit at launch. Keep seeing popular videos of this game popping up on youtube.

It's only gotten worse over time, Ubisoft is going full money mode charging $40 for season passes just to unlock new operatives early. It used to be decently balanced with every defender having an ability to block an attacker but now it's just a clusterfuck of luck every round. They overflowed the game with random abilities so it's way less skill based and the only thing that really matters is that you know the maps.

>pay 40$
But thats a lie you retard. You can just grind out the renown and buy them. And as long as you didnt get the 15 dollar scam that wont take to long. I personally really enjoy the tactical aspect of it. Every operator is good but there are definetly some that are flawed, see tachanka, and if you enjoy team based fps you'll love seige. Ubisoft is a little retarded when it comes to the technical side of things but they are working to better it.

Got gud fgt.

But seriously OP the game is the tits,

>female navy seal

...

There are a handful of ops that are far better than the rest and are statistically better, and a significant chunk that are dogshit unplayable except when playing against shitters or if you're some kind of aimbot god. The netcode is fucking terrible for a game with such an incredibly short TTK and the retarded matchmaking just compounds that issue. I still play this game almost daily and have fun but I end up hating myself a little bit more after every session when I think about these things. Anybody who buys season passes should kill themselves because they are feeding the cancer.

Welp, this guy is full of shit.

The games population is healthy, more players than @ launch. Don't buy the starter edition adn you'll be fine.

I agree on the netcode and season pass, but the validity of ops is fine. Unless you fell for the competative meme in which case I suggest suicide.

>I still play this game almost daily and have fun
>Anybody who buys season passes should kill themselves because they are feeding the cancer.
What is it you think games are for, user?

Nah I only play casual, maybe its because I'm in Japan so less retards than burgerland, but I still can't go full retard on casual here.

the fact that it's made by ubisoft is everything you need to know about it
I bought a stolen key on g2a or some other shit, still I feel I got jewed

Casinos are fun too, doesn't stop them from being morally shitty.

>RS6

Rainbow Six 6?
Rainbow Siege 6?

Bad comparison, you're not gambling in Rainbow Six Siege, you're buying a product and you know exactly what you're going to get.

Are you going to compare Ubi to Nazis next?

Will the normal version go on sale soon? I want to play it but my jew senses tell my to wait if only a little bit.

Its fun.
Ela nerfs can't come sooner though

It was pretty fun until Ubi started sucking off those ESL esports faggots and pandering to them. Ranked is pretty much unplayable these days for that reason and casual was never playable to begin with

>tachanka
>flawed
He's great if you know where to put him.
Only thing I wish they would do is reduce the recoil on his LMG.

Yo yo yo, wat up my ops?

well hello

tl;dr game is unique and irreplaceable but horrendously plagued by bullshit

Balance is completely in the shitter since they vomited out the latest defender operator, Ela, the only one who doesn't look at the screen in her operator list because she's some special snowflake tumblr cunt with a 50 round recoilless super-vector and her 4 sticky mines that blind, slow, and keep you from turning, that she throws out all over the fucking place like grenades. Oh, and she's the fastest (read: best) operator type.


With Ela and Lesion added, you have to worry about 7 invisible poison mines, 4 ela outskilling mines, 3 frost traps and soon to be 4 laser-less half-healthing kapkan tripwires. Have fun dealing with 18 traps every time you're on attack, because that's all you'll fucking see when that update drops.

> Buy a game.

> Still have to grind 20 hours like a F2P game to unlock new heroes.

Hmm.

Did you buy the starter edition?

don't buy grind edition if you don't want to grind

The game is fundamentally flawed in that you have maps the size of fy_poolday in a 5v5 that doesn't really change from game to game.

What they need to do is up the 0layer count to 8 or 10, having two 4/5 man fire teams on CT. Terrorists will just be one big squad.
MUCH larger maps, like Rogue Spear shit, so there's actual planning on your insertion and T defences will need smarter application.

Also scrap this character meme and go back to custom operators. How have we regressed from Vegas' custom dude with YOUR ACTUAL FACE ON IT to preset characters like an 80s sidescroller?

Oh and those rolling things can fuck right off.

How long would you say it takes to unlock 25K operators on the normal edition?

not defending ubishit, but
>20hours
>a lot

do you guys even play video games?

>Ying is one of the weakiest and most pointless attackers
>Ying's ablity is dog shit useless
>Cavira still has magic feet that make no since
>Her pistol is now the highest single shot damage in the whol game beating out sniper rifles and DMRs
>Glaz can still shoot thur thr windows of plane
>Glaz can magicly see thur smoke still
>Kapkan is barly usefull as is and is now being nerfed

Ele is the least of our concerns when all of this stupid shit is still in the game.

There's 33 operators.

That's 660 hours just to unlock all the characters.

>muh big maps and player count
Just go back to Battlefield. The whole point of Siege is close quarters combat. There's already a nice variety of different sized maps and some maps are supposed to feel claustrophobic. Just because a map looks small, it doesn't mean it has no depth.
>custom operators
Not going to happen and wouldn't work with Siege since operator identification is important.

in 400 hours of play i have every operator unlocked with the starter edition, so you can do the math from there

>Glaz can still shoot thur thr windows of plane
>Glaz can magicly see thur smoke still
What's wrong with this?

Shut up, idoit.

>you know exactly what you're going to get

You don't seem to understand how season passes work.

>any comparison I don't like is as bad as comparing to nazis

Fuck off

Pretty succinct, I think kappy will be fine though, at least his armor/speed is the worst class to balance that all out, and the mandatory twitch and/or thatcher every game will clean him up much more easily than those two since he actually has visible traps that require setup.

>complaining about glaz, let alone fucking plane glaz

Shitters pls

>Operators added after launch will be available for 25,000 Renown each, reflective of around 25 hours of gameplay. Data collected by the development team suggests that FPS players tend to spend around 8-10 hours per week playing their favorite game, meaning it should take between two and three weeks of regular play to unlock a post-launch operator
You can unlock half of the base operators just by completing the Situations. It's the player's fault for not reading the official FAQ on the starter edition.

It blew up. First AAA game I've seen in years where the player count only increases every year.

While I agree that grinding 100+ hours to unlock all ops in a non-f2p game is nonsense, to be fair like half the ops are boring and/or garbage so that cuts it down a bit.

>at least kapkan's armor/speed is the worst class to balance all that out

he's getting changed to 2/2 as well

Oh, well the rest still apply.

It's a roller coaster of being great and broken.

Take IQ retard, free win

> 8-10 hours per week.
> For two to three weeks.
> For 13 operators.

So... Almost a year of playing the game, assuming you don't want any cosmetics, which are also overpriced as fuck, as some only available on the cash shop.

On a game you have to pay $40 for? What the fuck Jewbisoft.

>On a game you have to pay $40 for?

I paid about $22 and it wasn't the starter edition

>take IQ
>Can see traps
>Can't actually do anything about them
I play IQ because she's three speed, cute, has an AUG, and has nades; not because of her piece of shit electronics scanner

>paying full price for an old game

You deserve to be jewed

hello silver

are you retarded or even played the game above gold?

>competitive R6S

You are what is killing this game

>shoot someone point blank in chest, start shooting first, more accurate gun
>die
>watch killcam
>guy reacted 3 seconds later, shot air next to my foot, blood came out of air

This game is fucking unplayable and you have to be bad to succeed

What kind of laggy third world region do you live in?

>tries to turn 'being smart' around on people when backed into a corner

no, brainlets kill videogames

Playing ranked in a game that is full of design flaws is retarded, its like being tryhard in mario party. You're that guy.

United states

Youre bad and just don't realize it, unless they fixed that god awful fucking netcode this game is literally unplayable if your aim is better than potato tier

Chill out son, that seems like some crazy lag/hitbox related issue and I've never seen that. I'm in Korea though so I typically see a max of 100 ping with the occasional SEA monkey fucking things up. The godawful netcode usually results in things like getting killed by someone because they jumped around a corner and blasted you before the stupid game catches you up on them showing up.

But user, its basically a different game at that point

>playing to win
>not how you are suppose to play the game
good lord you are dumb and also really fucking bad at the game to think casual is good

>4 minute round timer

Alright smart man, name 3 more balanced competitive FPS games

Two words
Operation health

fucking this

>he plays skillbeard

This isn't the first screenshot I've seen where Ela is in full legs up mating press potion.

What did they mean by this ?

There has never been a more accurate comment posted about this game fucking ever.

Ever.

That's pretty much the majority of Ubisoft releases now that I think about it.

bought it
played it
refunded it

it's awful shit

minute round timer
I only play ranked but I still think games should be longer. Feels like CoD atm
