Rainbow six siege thread

Let's try having a proper copypasta OC edition
Rainbow six siege is a primarily multiplayer game salvaged from the cancelled patriots, where listening to sounds and knowing your enemies' position is paramount. Having short rounds when you're getting steamrolled due to shit team is nice too.

First to make tender love with hibana while iq fuck me in the ass

videogames
please add me I want to get back to diamond

I find it strange how some of the worst ops in multiplayer,like tachanka and blitz, tend to be very well suited to terrorist hunt. Maybe that's a remnant of a more elaborate campaign, but it's more likely to be just a coincidence.

...

...

I'd take fuze above her tbh

Woah, whoever made the OP really has his pooshop skills to the max, I mean, he made a white guy looks like a nigger gang member. Mad respect.

Oh its you. Thanks god the last thread died already.

Yeah he is fucking mad with ps

Why are weebshits attracted to multiculturalism?
They love shit like this, ASSFAGGOTS and Overwatch

I think they're being attracted to the pretty anime faced girls and not the filthy grenade throwing nigger, but you pick to criticize a game that inevitably will have different characters because of the type of game it is, so you are kinda always going to find diversity in that type of game. So you are more of a faggot than the disgusting weebcucks.

At least that's really the worst he did for Siege; pretty tame coming from Shadman.

Knowing that disgusting freak he wanted to turn all the female operators into horsecock futas getting raped by nigs and someone told him to stop being a fag.

I know I'm responding to a blatant shitposter, but what's so weeb about rainbow six? And what's so multicultural about this? A significant portion of the ops are "fucking white males", and the others aren't because they're from nonwhite countries. Really the only odd ones out are an Arab from Spain and Chinese from Canada, and the female ops depending on how muh realism you wanna get.

...

He's probably mad about the female Navy Seal or something, just ignore the retard

Excellent post

some fresh stuff i found

iq is my one and only that feel when no iq to pound my ass

These people are downright retarded but it was still pretty funny

Arabs have raped Iberia for a few hundred years and the average Spanish women flock to Moroccan dick or is a moor, it's infused with their culture. Frost should be an Inuit however and it's sad that her being a a slant-eye makes sense.

You fag.

it says she's an immigrant so i can't get bent out of shape over it, plus i like playing as her

You can tell who the newfags are if they ask or get mad why you pick recruits, FBI Recruit is actually viable because M1911, shield, frag, breaches or R4C with tier-2 armor.

But Chinks haven't had a history in China prior to this, an snow injun, frog, or Anglo would've fit the bill much better.

i know what you meant, but still its a kek

Are you a wizard?

god i miss pre-nerfed shotguns

...

shooting a guy in the foot at some bullshit angle then throwing a grenade at him to make sure he was dead

Are you serious? Just play valkyrie or the GSG9, their shotguns fuck face.

hm i thought the gsg9 shotties weren't good? i'll give em a shot next time i get a smaller map

They have good range and pump extremely fast, and being a 3 speed op you can just roam and one shot people when you get the drop on them.

FUCKING MULTI MONITOR SUPPORT IS STILL BROKEN

All pretty good stuff. Though I wonder the reason behind the glaz/cav pairing.

Frost's super 90 is basically a guaranteed one shot in the chest, even at mid-range.

I think it's because Glaz is supposed to be prone to staying in his scope and eyeing the objective making him vulnerable to caveira sneaking up on him.

i was wrong to doubt this shotgun

I want someone to draw Blackbeards beard getting shot off

So like at 2:15 in webm related?

I want blackbeards beard to be his head so when they shoot it it's a headshot

why did i sleep on this gun for so long

If you have valkyrie try her spas12 too, it's semi auto and blows people away, with good range to boot.

i have valk but i don't use her very often since i don't know the best places to put cams

There are a few places that are generally good, being
1. In and around the objective
2. outside
3. Anywhere that cameras don't cover and is an area you'd like covered.
You can't go wrong with them honestly. At the very least they are back ups for the standard cameras.

Throw one in the objective room and the others leading to the objective room, it's best to throw then in wierd crevices that still have a good sight line like book cases and shit

It was nice.

Book shelves*

I've been improving enough so that I can carry the team for some games, but it's still pretty far from consistent, let alone at this point. So, congrats.

improving in this game actually feels like improvement, maybe because you don't actually unlock more guns just for playing and you actually master the ones you like

fuck i don't wanna be an ash-guy but that gun is pretty nice

That, and victory in this game is not all about aim, it's also about control. What's more satisfying ?
The tactical options may not be extremely deep, but they're present enough that victory feels truly earned.

breaking the control is the ultimate satisfaction, at least for me. finding the crack in the defense and blowing it wide open, or patiently waiting for the offense to scatter too much and get that drop on em. fun every time

It was a team effort. Everyone actually had mics and communication was on point. I was just happy that everyone stayed together for 3 hours to remain victorious over and over.

Mid season patch thing should be soonish I think

i look forward to even further fixing/breaking/overbuffing/breaking shields

Also I'm still loving Bandit even though he is countered easy by Thatcher.

1v1

My stomach was acid and my heart was pumping. Is there anything more pathetic than vidya adrenaline? That adrenaline could have been used for something impressive or heroic, but it was used for vidya.

I would honestly like a Blackbeard and Bandit buff. Maybe they needed a nervous, but their shields are paper.

blitz's shield works, his giant skull doesn't

R6 has always been multicultural before multiculturalism was trendy among marxists, that's why it's called Rainbow Six.

would "multiculturism" even be the word for rainbow6? they just took the best from multiple countries CTUs, even with female ops in siege they don't blend the cultures

fusing into a room that doesnt have the hostage and seeing the enemy team scower out of the room thinking i fused the hostage

run in through window and take the hostage to objective while enemy team tries to shoot me

fug u blitz

wait i meant bandit

Then move to Jaeger then.
I'd put him way up in the aggressive defender ranking next to Caveira, if only because Pulse is a bitch and Bandit doesn't have an assault rifle.

good thing few players want to shoulder the responsibility of thatcher and have a nonlethal gadget

So is this game any good? It's been a while since I played a fun FPS and I've heard decent things about it.

Depends what you want from a FPS, because it's very slow and about information rather than reflex and aim.

If you can get past the atrocious netcode, it's probably one of the best FPS's I've played in a long time.

its an incredible fluke by ubisoft, due the nature of spawns, character picks, and an honestly fucking fantastic destruction physics, you get a lot more variety per match than other shooters on the market right now

but its slow and twitchy and ubisoft breaks it a lot. i would advise trying it on a free weekend or something similar when one comes around

Thanks

i don't use shield often but i'll remember that

Siege is one of the few games where baguettes are actually cool.

Multiculturalism is the societal practice of letting multiple ethnies in the same society have their own culture, as is, with no effort for blending or assimilation out of the belief each culture is equal. It's essentially just segregation, but pretending it's good because muh religion of peace, which it always boils down to.
It really doesn't make much sense to say rainbow six is about that.

So Rainbow 6 is just another faggot COWADOODY clone with gay fucking gun skins. Awesome

That doesn't represent a lot of ops though, does it ? Only the spetsnaz's gadgets, frost and caveira are outwardly about killing. Others can technically kill, like smoke, sledge, thermite, buck and capitao, but are utilitarian in nature.

i saw this one on reddit,cant find it on youtube anymore but it was there. anyway can you make this into a webm?

Well that's an unusual amount of rounds to win.

There is nothing worse then a useless mute on a team.
Why do incompetent people pick important operators?

I meant Thatcher instead of Mute.

>Servers lagging and causing me to kill myself on my own frags


Shield team 6. Fuze with shield, Blitz, Montagne, FBI Shield recruits has won way too many rounds for it to be a gimmick or meme.

To be honest a useless Mute sucks as well.

Every time I mute, cockblocking fuze is always my priority, especially seeing how Thermite isn't all that much of a gamechanger in casual.
On hostage mode though, fuze away my man.

...

Fucking hell.

gitgud
but yeah 50 is fucking a lot

It's even more when uplay doesn't want to fucking track your wins.

The wildlands release must be fucking with the servers.

The primary Spanish shotgun is great. It has more range than the pre-nerf super 90

Anyone else feel like they either do absolute dogshit or fucking godlike all the time? Seriously, one minute I'll be missing every single shot in existence, then next round I'm John fucking Wick.

(checked)
All the time user, that's why I main as montagne – because it won't really matter if my aim is shit, most times if I see someone and the rest of my team Is still alive then they're already at a disadvantage.

Yeah, it's either you immediately get headshot without accomplishing anything or you're getting the two-quad kill.


I've had a guy who kept shock wiring walls I put jammers on, I had teammates who saw me get killed from a weird angle and immediately decide standing in the spot is a great idea and I had one round where noone wanted to roam so we had me playing Rook, a Caviera, Jager, Bandit and Frost anchored to the objective and then the next defending round noone else wanted to return to secure the objective.

m8 they're spetznas defenders.

It's also very possible to get kills as Montagne, it's just reserved to duel situations, and depends on the enemy player.
Just spray on the general direction of their head until you headshot. With the P9 it's a surprisingly reliable method. If you catch them reloading or panicking, shield bash.
Then it's a complete crapshoot, but you always have a chance to bash them.
Of course, if it's not a duel situation, then stick to team support. When teammates know how to profit from Montagne, magic often happens.

I usually play Monty on secure the object with a sniper in position. Stick to a corner and let him do the job of killing while you win the round

god damnit but i'm playing nier

i shoulda said "nonlethal/non breaching"

The birthday boy today

Nier will wait for you, mate.

this has got to be the worst fucking feeling

did ubi already give up trying to do birthday art for everyone

Can't say much was lost, rook looks like a chimp in that art.

yeah, and having ubi try too much character fluff makes me feel like they're just trying to get the overwatch audience

but i don't dislike the fluff that much just too much of it is detrimental

oh they gave fuze a new uniform "KT raid" and it looks fuckin nice

Good thing the SAS ops are always good no matter the team.

Did anyone else see that new scope they teased on twitter last night? Shit looks absolutely retarded.

Can't say I follow anyone's twitter. Is there even a need for a new scope ?

twitter.com/Rainbow6Game/status/840308718289993728

See for yourself. I'd rip the video from twitter if I knew how.

Technically it'd fuck spawn killers in the ass, but it doesn't seem worth it to me.

It looks like they're giving glaz a buff with a thermal sight. Pretty sure it isn't for all the ops.

That's the best thing about it in my opinion. At least it can't see through walls, otherwise I'd drop this game in a second.

It doesn't look too powerful honestly, because glaz is gonna be staring through a window most of the match anyway, so now he can do his job a little better.

Plane's gonna be a nightmare now.

Honestly I don't see it getting much worse, because in plane it already gave you dark silhouettes of the ops, now they're just gonna be bright yellow instead so maybe glaz will be a little more noob friendly and that's about it.

At least before it took a bit of skill to know what you're looking at. Now any part of you that's visible is going to glow bright yellow.

Yeah that's what I mean, it's just gonna bring the skill floor up, it won't raise the skill ceiling at all because a good glaz can already tell what he's looking at.

*skill floor down

By the way, take another look at his op video with this in mind.

We'll it wouldn't be the first time, tachanka's video doesn't have his shield. Hopefully there will be some drawback to the sight and you can toggle it or something.

Gameplay wise? Sledge. Personality wise? Thatcher.
Montagne.
Jackal, Buck, Hibana, Thatcher, and Twitch
Glaz, Thermite, Montagne, IQ, and Capitao

All of the lady ops look like dudes except Ash and IQ. I guess IQ then.

At least one person forgets to pick up Rook plates in Casual. Why?

What even is that? The current one at least looks similar to a Russian optic.

i mean he already does fuck spawn killers in the ass but i guess they want him to fuck them harder

not nearly as bad as wasting C4 to blow the wall between rooms on bomb mode, or reinforcing those walls

Well, since they're improving the original ops, let's see what else they would come up with in the future. Some below are more :^) than others.

Gut gud mate

With Blitz they just need to remove his helmet since it gives him like 2-3 feet more of a hitbox than say anyone else and they need to make it so his shield hitbox is slightly bigger and actually fucking works.

For those who wonder if the commonwealth flag charm is worth it.

ha.
this is actually something she needs so she gets picked more against valk/echo

if mute and castle team up he can shut down fuze attacks on upper floor spawns, the issue is people who pick castle don't do this and people don't pick mute because you actually have to do some work and not just go killing

I basically only play Mute because he's so underrated:

This. I main Mute for defense, and I love when there are castle barricades to jam up. Even now we can keep the attackers out of the objective for the entire round because no one brought explosives/ can't shoot my jammers.

Thing is, I do main mute on defense, and when someone takes it as an excuse to play castle it hardly ever works out. To begin with, Ash and Sledge are too common for this relationship to be any sort of miracle one. Second, even if you did cockblock fuze, then what? Dude has other options, and if he can fuze the objective, it's christmas for him in the first place. Third, castles love doorways much more than they love windows, and god damn do they expect me to place a jammer on a two-width doorway where it will get shot by any prone idiot.

Why are NuGermans so fucking autistic and bad at videogames?

Because all the good ones died when we fucked them in world war II, it's not that hard to understand. You are always supposed to cull the proud when you win a war, else they'll try to fuck you up later. Look at Germany now, cucked beyond belief, will never be dangerous again.


Do you communicate? Talk to you're team mates and get them to work together. One thing I like to do (Don't have to be mute ofr this) is to bring a shotgun and stand next to a caded window, listening for anything (The click or movement of placeables and such) then fucking unload through the window. Poor fuckers have no idea what hit them, especially poor fuze.

I can't, speech impediment. Sure, I'll write stuff when needed and I can afford not moving, but mute is busy in the prep phase as is. You might say it's weird I got into R6S with that handicap, and it is, but, well, it's why I stay the hell away from ranked.

Someone I know who regularly plays CSGO and communicates with his team, has a speech impediment and they do just fine. They are sitting fine at MG, you just gotta believe in yourself m8.

You deserved it faggot

On this note I have a thing
>he shoot me in the back on purpose. Plug his mic and call me a faggot even so wasn't my fault

You guys got any ideas for something I could photoshop ?

Try and make a caveira version of this.

Seconding this.

any spetsnaz op reading this

...

that costume's getting real close to making operators hard to tell apart, I could see someone mistaking that for Ash

I honestly thought it was valkyrie with the black head towel in the thumbnail.

that's a good point, but it will be easy to tell elite-twitch from ash because unlike ash she won't be moving at 200miles per hour with her hitbox trying to catch up

Here you go pal.

...

The Red Crow update made her look fine now she looks like a bloated tanned peach, and didn't she have short hair.

she always wears a mask so no her hair style is unknown outside that elite armor

I would watch this buddy cop movie

Will try.

I have been looking forward an elite set on an op I like.

Tried putting thermite's googles into the guy on the right, but it doesn't really work.

Who else could be put in Colin's place?
Caveira looks pretty good.

...

I've been wanting to do a costume for Blitz, but I can't find a helmet, any idea how your friend got one?

For Blitz's helmet I would recommend looking up a PASGT M88 Helmet that can accept a visor. We actually ran into a Blitz there who had a good setup even a shield.

For Jager my friend customized a helmet he already owned. Added those things on the side along with a mic from an old broken one. Getting all my Castle shit was easy enough but I didn't have time to design a wall fortification prop. My friend was originally going to make Jager's trophy system too but we ran out of time before we could complete any of it.

The hardest part was actually sneaking our prop weapons into Pax.

Nice costumes, really good shit man. And I'll start looking at those, I'd like to modify it like your friend did,because you can't have Blitz without his bullshit ear protector hitbox :^)

that kapkan edit came out great!

glaz is usually the go-to character for getting fucked by caveira since he hangs back the furthest

Does anyone else have the commonwealth challenges again this week?

Yeah, and this time the flag charm one also gives 500 renown. I guess enough people bitched that it was too many rounds. lmaoing at non-NEETs

Oh man, smoke is gonna be a must have for glaz now.

Is this confirmed for the new flip sight for Glaz?

That's the mid season reinforcements patch notes, so it doesn't get much more confirmed than that.

rainbow6.ubisoft.com/siege/en-us/updates/velvetshell/reinforcements.aspx

Patch notes are up. Update will be live tomorrow, Wednesday, March 15.

they're just gonna enable bighead mode on him and call it a day

eyy, I hope it's a good 50-75% smaller. That shit is rediculously big.


FUCKING ==THANK YOU==

I've died so many times because someone's holding a reinforcement or something instead of a gun and it fucks up their outline and I don't register them as a player.

The trips confirm the truth.

I'd like to know why there have been so many tkers lately

whens the patch drop today? i wanna see what they break this time

Red Dot sight isn't shit any more on everything except for the FAMAS and PARA-308 for whatever reason.
Also if you owned any S4/S3 universal skin you unlock Teal for free.

I've been playing with a guy that picks Blitz almost every game and Blitz is probably the better pick over Montagne if you want a shield guy. Blitz just has such huge utility with the flash and breach charges.
Tachanka on the other hand, he's only good for this.

Didn't they just re-release the starter edition?

But really, the résistance theme was an easy sell, as well as turning her drone into a miniature tank.

I bought the game 2 days ago and Im getting destroyed by everything. Im missing 1 or 2 standard operators.
After that its long ass grind to 25 000 renown ones.

Echo seems super interesting, looking forward on getting that.

Yeah that's how it works. Get shit on for about 30 hours, get a couple rounds where you start to feel like you know what you're doing, then fall into the cycle of a few rounds being top dog feeling good and a few rounds at the bottom feeling like shit. Make sure you're doing the weekly challenges from the uplay overlay menu, it makes the 25k grind a little easier.

Fun Gadget + Breaching Charges I like shields, clientside hit detection or not
Montange I love shields, but that revolver has so fucking slow ADS and mag size
Hibana+Buck+Fuze+Twitch+Fill///Rook+Valk+Bandit+Jaeger+Mute or Smoke map depending
Unguarded Mira Windows, Random queue Montanges
Solo, random queues suck
Ash's who waste breaches before entering building, Castles who barricade all the way around objective
House,I do enjoy plane, inside not out Kanal
Favela, Yacht, Coastline No particular order
Dying a room away from Fuze cluster, Through reinforced wall because of Fuze cluster, killing myself on same side of wall as Fuze cluster
Getting spotted by Jackal, running away and having him track me down
Caivera pistol against escaping attacker outside with hostage. Cant kill with pistol, so spray away
Blindfire headshots. Spraying from spawn luck
IQ
#BuffBlitz You can give him an RPG, wont fix clientside hit detection
Castle barricading you in so fuze can ace, Ash picking her just so they can launch them at barricaded windows, listening to fuze clusters on barricaded window, and not shooting him off

I thought that only worked if you had her ability going or something?

Pretty sure her pistol won't kill unless they are already downed, regardless of her ability being on or not.

Is the photoshop user here?
You think barricade the door and make castle the main guy is a nice idea?

And replace the fire with Fuze's hockey pcusk/explosions if you do it.

*pucks, jesus how did I misspell that.

Have some junk I scraped elsewhere.

Not that I'm complaining, but why do I keep seeing this?

because kancolle is a blight

but some one alert me when they do tenryuu and rainbow x crossover images

Might be more suited for a drawfag, but I'll try something. Busy until friday though.

The Jagermeister is a wonderful touch.

If limb shots didn't annihilate people and they fixed his hitbox you might have a point.

Yeah he fuckin killed it with that.

And here it is in gif form as an exploitable for this glorious thread

This game is shit and you should kill yourself if you play it, shills.

...

No worries user. Isn't a rush thing, it's mostly doing it for having more oc

Good luck with that hothead

I'm getting ptsd

...

I haven't had any issues, what's happening to you user?

Yeah, I'm holding off multiplayer until the novelty wears off.

It's not as bad as you'd think right now. He's still not picked all that often. Though it does pretty much assure he'll get anyone that peeks.

...

...

...

does he need fixing or should i just deal with that no ones gonna get blown up

Maybe you're placing them is really obvious spots. I always put mine in either locations where rushing is prevalent, or on the other side of the objective map where attackers might think is safe to come through, and thus let their guard down.

i try to mix it up, but lately i've been havin no luck, same for frost actually, maybe i just gotta find some new tricks or players in my level are just used to trap checking

My boyfriend keeps playing this game a fuckton, is it really that fun? I want to get into it now, but never played any FPS'es. What character do you recommend for a newbie like me?

This, kapkan is always a bit of a crapshoot, but if someone's going to fall for it, it's when a trap is in the middle of nowhere. Or when montagne makes the mistake of feeling too invincible

Rook for defense, Montagne for attack if you dont mind being up front. Also, post tits. Or cock.

I usually get at least 1 kill per match. It's also good for area denial, catching people when they try to kill the trap, and for knowing where they are when they shoot it.


Rook is great for Defense, Thatcher I think is pretty noob friendly for attack.

rook on defender and someone like sledge or IQ for attacker.
Rook's main use is plopping down his gadget in the first 3 seconds of the setup phase and then he can go off and die without making his team suffer.

Attackers it's a bit harder as they're generally a bit better, but stay the fuck away from the reinforced wall breakers like thermite or hibana. the KGB guys aren't newbie friendly at all. Shield users are out too. Twitch's gadget is pretty mediocre, but sometimes can make a round against a mute. So that leaves you with sledge and IQ.

but I'm hairy
and loyal

Thanks guys!

1. no one cares whom you're fucking that happens to play this game

2. its fun, its got a destruction engine that nothing else on the market does right now and perhaps by a fluke, they made a game where due to keeping information hidden from players till they found it, every match can play out very differently

3. try before you buy, this is ubisoft

rook for defense, sledge for offense

The main draw of the game is that every match is different due to all the tactical and destruction options, and getting kills is satisfying since it usually means you outmaneuvered the enemy. Newbies should always take rook on defense, and someone like sledge and ash on attack, as their gadgets are very straightforward and it's not too big a deal if you die. However, performance isn't really tied to your op, it's more about map knowledge and getting the feel of how the enemy's going to act. For this reason, you're gonna suck a lot for 20-30 hours.

I don't know I think having an extreme utility gadget like thatcher isn't good for new people. Like a thatcher can ruin a team's defenses with a well placed EMP and lead the way for a thermite or hibana to completely ruin them.

All you're doing is throwing a grenade in a direction. It's not really rocket surgery, and you can always ask your teammates where they want the grenade thrown.

that involves not dying in the first 30 seconds, and thatcher's the only person in the game who can do that, so it's not like your team can have a backup

Thatcher's EMP is easy to use, just chuck it at a reinforced wall or where thermite pings you. The part where a noob shouldn't use him is that if you die, it's a hard penalty for the team.

agreed, thatcher should be saved for mid-high level players because he should be trying to survive long enough to use his gadget, or not waste his gadget

i've been playing him a lot more lately because some one ought to if no one else picked him, and the AR33 puts in work


and then jaeger blasts its and laughs at you. still you're not wrong its not complex, but you need to know how the EMP works and how to identify jammers/magpies/shockwires before you just throw the EMP into any room you're about to attack

I managed to figure out how his EMP's work after throwing the first 2 rounds I played him. I don't think you're giving new players enough credit and maybe you're right. A new player is probably going to die in the first 30 seconds regardless of who they pick, and if they just happen to survive with thatcher then you're giving your team a whole lot more to work with than if they didn't have him.

Yeah but compare that to a sledge or IQ. You don't lose anything if one of those two die aside from some breaching charges if sledge and literally nothing if IQ dies.

i still see players do stuff like reinforce the hatches on the floor their on or use castle without mute so i might be giving them a hard time

they're*
still, i vouch sledge and rook are great early picks and consider sledge is a good pick in general

IQ is a good/bad rookie pick because it helps a new player learn where cameras are faster, but at the same time i'd rather have a recruit on my team than an IQ

I've come to think Jackal would be better on defense. He's not useless on attack, but the eyenox is kinda restricted to roamers and the late stages of an objective attack, where he can pinpoint in which corner the defender is hiding. Whereas in defense, he would be able to track down everyone.

I don't get it. Are you saying pick someone who offers some to little utility because they if they die nothing happens? Rather than someone who can give a team a lot more options, and if they die then… nothing happens? If you're dead you're dead, I don't understand why picking Thatcher is so much more devastating if he dies than if you didn't have him at all in the first place.

because someone who's bad and picks thatcher locks someone else out of playing thatcher

I was thinking that too, but I think it would make him TOO useful. He would be the quintessential roamer and would be better than cav. Also he fulfills a niche of anti-roamer, which there wasn't an op who was dedicated to that until his release.

and I should clarify we're talking about for starting players who have 1 or 2 operators unlocked

It's like this :

I guess that makes sense. In my experience though people usually pick Thermite and Hibana even if no one picks Thatcher.

Yeah, thatcher doesn't make a thermite good or a hibana good. He allows them a ton more options against a bandit or a mute, which is why that's important. Also he makes fuze able to do some neat shit too, but that's another issue.
And if we're talking about a player who doesn't know how to play and dies often with only 1/2 ops unlocked, they're just clogging the thatcher pick. It's better they go someone replaceable who doesn't matter as much

If someone already has thermite and nobody else has picked thatcher, then I would agree a noob should take a shot as thatcher. But I can't recommend him as a beginner's main attack pick.

Post it already you hairy faggot so we can speaking about this game

A good backup for Tatcher would be a well skilled twitch, she can do the same job after blowing cameras. I know, I use her 90% of my matches

a good twitch is a fucking godsend because if they're doing their job even decently 90% of the cameras will be broken before you even get into the building

Also its a good sign to go find another match if one of your 'teammates' gets killed by her drone in the prep phase

since i just play in casual playlist despite having 400 hours in this game i don't bother quitting out even if it all goes to pigshit, it is a kind of game i feel like i learn something every match

Oh sure, casual is a whole different bag, sometimes I even sit around at 1v1 with minutes left to see what the retards get up to

...

What I said best secondary weapon and why is it the MAC-11?

just you wait, i bet next operator will get to carry 6 rifles

Sooo when are they going to decrease the ROF of glaz? With the termal now have become a shotgun with more vision

i don't expect any big patches till the next set of operators since the thermal was a mid-season change

if anything i expect everyone to get the amount of smoke grenades they can carry nerfed before glaz himself is

...

bandit and jaeger need to be swapped

It's fucking annoying to fight against a Glaz because even in close range he could just smoke the room and take people down one by one. Getting out of the smoked room just means I'm only giving him the range advantage.

What you suggested actually makes sense (although its still OP), so its something that is never going to happen.
The only other operator that can do something similar to Glaz would be after Caviera does her interrogation. Something which isn't always easy to do compared to sticking on putting up your scope and maybe throwing some grenades.

Or just make the thermal scope not see through smoke. The whole feature makes me think someone went "hey, a thermal scanner should be able to do this, right ?" without thinking about the consequences in gameplay. It makes sense on a theoretical level, but in terms of gameplay mechanics it's just a retardedly powerful boon that doesn't line up with how the character works otherwise.
Thing is, it's going to be hard for them to backpedal on that shit.

I've always considered Glaz to be some dude with a powerful weapon which is the only weapon which can shoot through glaz in some maps, but thermal scopes should make smoke grenades more viable for once, I barely see anyone use them. In a roster of operators where almost every op has some situational use, Glaz is largely map-dependent and has to make up for that with his pseudo-sniper rifle. I guess he's just too straightforward.

It'd be better balanced out if Glaz himself didn't have any smokes but had to rely on teammates to throw them, much like how Bandit can't block entire passages by himself by electrifying deployable shields because he doesn't have any. Almost nobody uses smokes these days, and this would be a good way to do it.

That's when you inform him that you ARE black, you can use whatever language you want, and that you're reporting him for being a filthy nazi and teamkiller.

If you have a mic, load up a convincing voice changer as well.

Smoke grenades were always viable, it's just not every match you run into a situation where a smoke grenade is going to be useful. Like, buff the item all you want, it's still shit that blocks vision and nothing else. Just because they are fewer uses doesn't mean one should be desperate to buff them at the expense of reason.

Which is exactly what happened here, what smokes are now is an invisibility field + aim assist for Glaz. That made them more likely to be picked, sure, but can that be called a positive outcome ? Glaz is now a literal goddamn Predator and smokes are now miles better than any frag. Things have clearly gone off the rail somewhere.

Let smoke grenades be smoke grenades, and let the new Glaz scope be a cheeky Jäger killer. If smokes need a buff, it certainly isn't fucking this.

Bandit has autism hence why he's chaotic.

It's Jäger who has autism.
Bandit, on the other hand, is just a crafty asshole.

also he wears a helicopter pilot helmet for no discernible reason

Never thought of capping twitch's code thing before but here it is.

bump

Should I just teamkill people who pick castle on bomb maps. I'm really considering just eating it when he puts up yet another fucking barricade on an important go-between.

If they still manage to be retarded despite any earlier warnings, they're better off dead than alive. I once told a low-level Fuze REPEATEDLY to not cluster charge the fucking hostage room, but he must've been some fucking barbaric spic to not understand any English as he proceeds to place a cluster charge right next to the hostage room and ruin the round.

Another match we had a 1 v 2 situation as defenders, with me being dead. Our last guy gets droned and I tell him to just change positions in chat because they know where they are. For some reason he goes all anal on me telling me to shut the fuck up and that everything is fine because the only closest doorway to the obj room has a tripwire behind its deployable shield, after which one of the enemies tries to hops over and gets blown to pieces. Then before he can tell finish saying 'just look, everything is fine' the other attacker comes in and pre-fires his head off. I know it's Casual, but it doesn't hurt to not be retarded.

I remember having to babysit a Fuze on Chalet hostage.

Had something similar. But one pluck have gone nonetheless and injure the hostage. We had even less time to win
we didnt

Why bother? You can just tear it down and laugh at him.

Yes.
Not really since that refunds him the barricade.

Yeah, y'know, like teaching your team-mate that this is an important path rather than screeching like an autistic frog and capping him.

Teamkilling is only acceptable as revenge to be honest. On a similar note, I certainly would appreciate if a teammate reinforcing beside a black mirror and popping it immediately would refund me the thing.

Please it's someone who picks castle on a bomb map, they're already terminally retarded

Skillbeard needs to be chaotic evil

CRT would have caved his head in

that's really cool, a lot of detail into something you only see a second

this one is going to need to be updated to have glaz now, except glaz is 6 miles away

a gorillion hours in mspaint.

nice work

i was rock fucking hard

Anyone watch pro league? Favorite team(s) / player(s)?

...

??
damn mute is my age and i'm not a cool operator, might as werll end myself

of course they make him the smarty pants genius of the operators
stick to making curry, pajeet

all the operator bios are like "absolute genius and also the best"

(kek)

this just aint right

Competitive R6S sounds dumb as hell, and this is coming from someone who's fine with competitive Smash

Problem is the hit detection and that like small delay between shit showing up on your end vs what they see

Well if you really did want to be competitive wouldn't LAN eliminate almost all the lag?

LAN would, but the game is not set up in such a way to accommodate it, they would have to develop an entirely new client and shit and the lack of delay would fuck people up. Plus I believe a lot of qualifiers are done online since it ends up being cheaper that way.

The game is designed to be competitive. try watching a pro match some time, it almost becomes a strategy game rather than a shooter.

Ping delay is inherent to online shooters but it's not that bad and a lot of the time it comes down to reaction time and knowing where someone is.

I'm still trying to determine what Godless kraut witchcraft they use to fit 6 shells into a shotgun with a 2 round magazine.

Ping delay is inherent to online shooters, but in r6 its pretty bad to the point where people can abuse it by peeking quickly shooting and ducking back. Someone quite a few threads ago was posting about it and had some science related to how to abuse it. Either way the hitboxes will still need to be reworked and the maps will need some fixes.

makes sense considering the nature of the game, and although i don't watch a lot of e-sports, some r6 comp clips i've seen the guys have really fucking bad aim despite being pros

Twitch reflexes aren't even that important for Siege (unless you're constantly dealing with shit head on). Quickdraw aim doesn't really matter that much when the game is more about flanking the opponent (through wooden walls) and pre-firing, though my shit aim has cost my life more than once.

That's just quick peeking to gain information and then prefiring your second peek. There's nothing you can do against prefiring short of prefiring the prefirer, even on LAN. Doesn't work against pros, but not even pros just a good player will know what you're about to do when you peek for a millisecond and they'll change position.

The most unbalanced maps are banned from pro league, such as House and Plane.


I've seen them too, unfortunately it's mostly been the console "pro" league giving the PC scene a bad name. I don't think it's a coincidence that Ubisoft dropped console from pro league after video related got upvoted to the top of several gaming subreddits.

Holy shit, I'm a dead shot compared to this. Didn't controllers have autoaim though ?

Nope, no aim assist.

...

begone thot

...

i use red dot on most of my SMGs, holographic on most rifles, and acog for weapons like the DMR or sr-25

What the fuck?


I use a controller and still have better aim than that
