There's now a $15 version that gives you two random operators and makes the other ones more expensive.

So, I played the game during the free weekend, does my progress on the game still hold?
I had like 5 operators unlocked.

2 more things, I heard the game got a balance update a few weeks ago, what changed?
Last thing, is the DLC even worth it?

As long as you still have your account, yeah you should.

I'm sure I'm missing something else.

I don't see why not.

rainbow6.ubi.com/siege/en-us/updates/dustline.aspx

DLC's free for everybody.

Considering it's free, yeah.

but the prices for each new operator is so absurd, how many hours do you have to put in order to unlock one of them.

A lot. It's to make people that don't want to bother, just buy them. I never save that much since I like buying new shit for my guys I have unlocked.

Until they add in playable terrorists siege will always be shit in my mind.

okay

Blackbeard is the biggest proem with this game now

It's $30 on G2A. Should I go for it? I've heard nothing but good about the game.

If you have friends it's fun. Or find some people here to play with.

I have *friends* but they only play MMOs and other F2P games.

friends

niggers

Buck got fucked but he has frags now

Of all the DLC operators too ubi sure doesn't like him

This piece of shit is locked to uPlay?

How'd he get fucked?
I know they changed his ability to be more useful to make holes in walls instead of shooting people, but I never used him, does it make a big difference?

Before this patch his shotgun made great holes but they nerfed the spread and made his holes pitiful now

It made sense. Buck could do what Sledge did but Buck would be ready to fight while Sledge had to holster his hammer after using it.

I'm just thankful his m4 C8 got a recoil reduction.

In what fucking universe?

I think only a handful of skins you actually have to pay money for. With the exception of a few, everything's unlockable in-game

Is the netcode any better? Or do people still do the trick with aiming and riot shields where they can fire+shield to kill someone before the other player sees anything?

Weird, I thought it was the other way around.


Who gives a shit about weapon skins, it's the DLC operators and maps that are free.

Do you have to unlock weapons in this game?

Attachments but that's easy

You can still do the riot shield quick shot trick, but they made it innacurate. You'll have to aim for a while to get a perfectly accurate shot with the pistol.

Spotted the shill, check dubs

It's there best game in years

That's not saying anything. Ubisoft hasn't made a game that was even decent or playable in over a decade

Far Cry 2 It's the closest you'll ever get to a Bush Wars game

Its still fun and Ghost Recon Future Soldier had fun multiplayer atleast

Kind of almost gives me hope for Wildlands

Here is some alpha gameplay

So what's the deal with that 15 dollar version? Also, how's the online life.

People always said they wanted the game for cheap so ubi decided to do it.

So what's it missing content wise?

Nothing just the grind for operators is super super long

You get 4 free operators and 600 free ubijew credits for your choice of DLC operator all the maps are free.

That's not so bad. Again, how's the online life? Seem like something that'll be long term?

Guaranteed shit game. Wouldn't play for any reason.

Pretty good I would say can find games easily.

I'm still confused by the fact that Ubisoft hasn't fucked it up, but at this point I'm not even questioning it anymore.
IQt is so much better now that Dust Line hit. She was useless for so long I can't even remember the last time I played her.

You know what this shit reminds me of

Lockdown multiplayer

Not only does seeing outlines and actually being able to see through the screen make her better, but also since Valkyrie's in the game it makes her almost a necessity to pick out those cameras.
Still waiting for Tachunka's next buff.


$15 version makes it so you need to grind harder to unlock the new operators.
Online it's pretty active.

Making it easier for Tachanka to place his turret was a good start.
I still think it should be able to shoot through shields, or at least do more damage to them. He has the biggest gun in the game, it should pack more of a punch.

Just be able to stagger them is all I ask

Fuze did 9/11

Its what Spetnaz do in real life they dont give a shit about hostages

Each operator has a motif.

I dont really understand the Navy Seals ones but I guess intelligence?

Spetsnaz don't give a fuck, they'll literally tear down an entire building if they have to.

This shit hasn't happened to me in a while luckily, feels like the amount of people who pick Fuze has slightly decreased.

More people need to use Fuze's PKP, shit's amazing.

...

...

Who the fuck gives the shit about skins? Important stuff (maps and operators) are free.

This. The game is great, but it suffers from being hotglued to Udontplay and Ubishit in general. The decision to introduce the 15 dollaroo version was great, now they just need to unlock language options and fucking ditch Uplay (which will never happen)

I disagree.

Made it to rank 90 with a bunch of friends until I called it quits. Ubisoft is not aiming to support this game post the season pass. No modding, no community servers, FUCKING P2P IN TERRORIST HUNT, constant weapon skin releases that adds fuck all to the game. Anti-cheat solutions that have been on the table for the past half year. "We are still considering our options" my ass.

I could go on but god damn this game is just poisoned by the publisher. Glad I got this game for free with my graphics card. Would never have purchased it otherwise.

Fuck 'em.

Now check em.

Honestly, since the release of Dust Line the game feels "complete" since they added features that should've been in the game to begin with (changing attachments in game, numerous map exploits).
I disagree. I still think IQ has the best weapons and because headshots kill in one shot, it doesn't really matter. But other than that, I agree.

Oh also, fuck reddit and their ass-kissing.

The entire Rainbow Six: Siege sub is just the players wanking themself off to other players clips of HILARIOUS RAGDOLL PHYSICS or CHECK THIS SICK FRAG OUT FUCCBOI. All of them console players.

Wait, I feel that I need to clarify that statement. I don't care about what input controller method you use. Hell I own plenty myself (loving my G27 for when I play Dirt 3) but it is the console mentality that I can't fucking stand.

As if publishers can do no wrong and we should praise whatever shit they push out next. That is what the Rainbow Six: Siege subreddit is. Them, on their knees, sucking Ubisoft cock like the good little cucks they are. No anti-cheat for 6 months? "YOU DON'T KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO IMPLEMENT" or "THEN YOU MAKE A BETTER GAME". Like fuck this sheep mentality.

I mad because I wasted those hours in a game claiming to be "e-sports ready" and then let cheaters play in actual tournaments. Truly professional.

My anus hurt, I need to sit down. Where is my pillow?

To be fair, that's basically subreddit.
One of my friends did make a redditor so salty that he claimed he was "cheating" on the subreddit and posted a video as proof.

I haven't played the Dust Line update since I deleted the game but after the whole Frost debacle and her P90 super shotgun sniper, it is clear to me the only "balance" the weapons when majority of players have unlocked DLC character, in about the time that new DLC characters and new weapons are on the way.

Her P90 is still really good and a must on any team (shes pretty much just an upgraded kapkan anyway).

And from the looks of it, playing as BlackBeard is the new rave, due to his gun. Looking at the spreadsheet OP linked, his gun is currently have the highest damage output, which will once again be nerfed once players start unlocking him.

And round and round we go…

She looks way too fucking happy to be in a hostage situation.

Wow I knew the hostage looked different than in my memory, but I never bothered to check. Apart from the better looking graphics and way better looking barricades, I wouldn't want any of that cinematic bullshit in the game though, it would be annoying as shit to have to rappel from a helicopter every round.

Well the problem without any anti-cheating measures and really poor kill cam that glitches way too often, mistrust is a huge thing.

Getting accused of hacking is a daily thing now due to how no one trust anyone to be simply good at the game, but rather clearly they cheat since there is nothing to stop cheaters anyway.

But seriously, those redditors are fucking salty as hell soon as someone gets a headshot.

...

Blackbeard's bullet-proof shield that protects him from headshots is destructible, in theory. It takes 1½ mags from Valkyrie's MPX to destroy. However, his counter is either flanking him or using a shotgun for bodyshots since they recently buffed pump-action shotguns to not be shit.
They need to add something like a Community Test Environment where players can play as the new operators prior to release and give feedback before they go live with it.


Redditors suck shit and are always salty,
If you want cancer, go to /vg/ and look at the R6 general.

Bon voyage French goblin.

Absolutely. It would improve the game a lot of if they had some simple QA.

But this is Ubisoft, there is no QA, the consumer is the QA. I just wish it was only Ubisoft that did this shitty practice but every big publisher does this these days. "Just ship it, we will fix it later".

I'm sure there is plenty cancer around. Otherwise Ubisoft wouldn't exist in my world.

If all of my issues got fixed, proper anti-cheat, netcode gets a tune up and weapon balancing was high priority along with community testing, Rainbow Six: Siege is a pretty good game. It ain't Rainbow Six, but on its own, its good.

Too bad Ubisoft happened.

I was quite surprised when DICE LA did a CTE. I never played BF4 so I don't know if they implemented it improperly, but I was surprised that EADICE of all devs did this.

I'm surprised they are still supporting it at all. I wonder who in EA had a brain tumor that day when they gave go-ahead.

But it's a great feature that I highly recommend that every competitive FPS should do. Crowd sourcing testing is a good concept.

...

I tend to pick Fuze with a shield if all useful roles have already been taken and we're not playing hostage.

Crowbcats retarded

This is the actual alpha gameplay>>9567104

I've just recently started picking him when Thermite and Ash are taken and it's not a hostage match and I found him surprisingly fun actually.
In general I've grown pretty tired of the operators I used to pick all the time at first though, so any others seem more fun at this point.

How much are they paying you?

I think the game balance aside from Blackbeard is good.

All we need is punk buster and the CTE BF4 suffered the same problems since punk buster needed fair fight to stop cheaters and CTE for bugs.

I still think it's the best tactical FPS out at the moment though

AK-12 is one of my favorite weapons and all the Russian optics are infinitely better than the western ones.

Fuck off

That is one area I do not want to see this game.

Nope.

This. Esports would kill this game for me. I hate going against try-hards as it is.

Its something though I run into more "white knight" hackers than straight up hackers.

They didnt even nerf Frost that bad

Her super 90 is basically the FBI shotgun now? Its weird since all of the semi auto shotguns are really fucking good and they took away her nitro cells.

Still a better kapkan than kapkan

Yep. Sadly Ubishit really wants to capitalise on the esports market.

Na it is still a bit wonky, mostly because some operators are just not worth picking.

I mean IQ is someones waifu out there I'm sure, but her gadget is shit. So you can tell if a oven is on or off but that is about it.
Thatcher is a must along with Termite. Meta gaming and all that. But as I said, this can be fixed if Ubisoft ever gets around to it.

I rather take a cactus up my anus. Punkbuster is about as good as "FairFight" which is the current non-functional anti-cheat being employed.

Take CS:GO as an example. You got 3 layers of protection.
First VAC, which reads client memory against most hacks and has a hash id list of all known cheats. Already here you filter a shit ton of hacks.
Next is Overwatch, which is community voting on demos on whether the person in question is cheating (I assume Valve keeps a small internal team to verify these bans once community reach a conclusion). This picks up any player reports (who knows where the reports in Rainbow Six: Seige goes, I reported plenty and have had no feedback).
And last but not least, thanks to community servers, you have local admins who can act right away without having to wait for a verdict from Valve or the community.

It may not be perfect (that $4 sale on CS:GO, what the fuck were Valve thinking) but it works well enough to people have faith in the system. Compared to Rainbow Six: Siege currently and its FairFight. Everyone knows that FairFight ain't doing shit to stop anything and the few people that did get banned, have been unbanned as well. Meaning that there is not even a zero tolerance policy on cheating.

As for E-sports, yeah it sucks I can agree on that. E-sports is 'in' these days and thus Ubisoft obviously is going to capitalize on it. It is hurting the game overall instead of focus on the important issues (poor netcode, rampage hacking, no community servers, no modding).

As for calling Rainbow Six: Siege tactical, I laugh in your general direction.
The game has no doors. One of the most important things ever in a close combat, tactical shooter. See also: SWAT 4, Door Kickers, previous installments of Rainbow Six.

Niche? I dunno I love Siege in the realistic damage model but its not to realistic where the gun recoil is crazy and you never see the guy who kills you.

but im a faggot who also likes Vegas 2….

You and me both, it is why I got so many hours in Siege.

Rainbow Six: Siege has quality too it and there is certainly a good game hidden beneath the shit of things that Ubisoft has pushed onto the dev team. But that is the core issue ultimately, the publisher fucked the dev team hard.

Looking at their options for 6 months regarding anti-cheat is called "stalling for time". Watch, they are gonna stall for another 6 months and once the entire season pass is out, Ubisoft is going to downsize the team to a graveyard shift.

It is common practice within the console market.

So are the reviews saying it's full of hackers and ubisoft not doing anything about it bs?

Like usual but I dont think the game will die (soon anyway) it has good gameplay with a top tier sound design and destruction system. If anything other games should learn from the sound design this game has.


If we do get more free DLC I want GROM operators

I know, it is so fucking good. It is really why I kept coming back. I love how sound travels as you expect it and not just in bird eye view, hearing footsteps right through 3ft thick walls.

And when you blast two walls at the same time and rush the enemy while they are completely confused as to what is happening is one the best feelings ever.

Give me a bastard child of SWAT 4 and Siege and I would be in heaven.

But I'm excited to see what else the new operators are going to have for gadgets. I believe it is the Japanese SWAT team equivalent next, right?

Next is HUE HUE operators, next are nips.


I've actually seen less hackers since DL, so they're doing something at least. Not enough, though.


Nah, next year they're going to ask people to buy the next season pass for extra jewery.

Nope BRs are next the Japs are the last ones.

I hope the next attackers dont just have an attachment but I think the jap might have a thermal scope ubisoft japan leaked this a while ago. We dont know anything for the BRs though but the new maps a favela.

Me too, I was actually hoping for another special drone for more drone shenanigans. But it seems kinda unlikely now.

Do we have a Holla Forums Holla Forums group on steam for this game?

Holy shit, do they add to the gameplay or change mechanics? No? Then, who gives a flying fuck? They're cosmetics.

Bitch, I will fucking cut you.

FUCK

Did they make it or just publish it?

YO IM GIVING OUT FREE COPIES OF THIS GAME SINCE ITS $15

BUT IN ORDER TO GET THEM YOU NEED TO SAY

You're a giant faggot and this game is barebones shit.

This guy wins

He was the only one who went against the grain. So would you like your copy?

will do art request for a copy.

Ok shlomo

also, here's some examples of my stuff.

What makes people shoot their team mates out of nowhere after winning two rounds? I've seen it happen so often now on both sides. It's baffling.

I would assume dicks, faggots and just plainly "it's just a game bro" types.

Team killing is not punished, or rather there is a 3 second timer after round start where friendly fire results in a kick but after that it is open season.

There is no real way to solve it, other than maybe pair team killers with other teamkillers, but the game is already dealing with a very small player base (on PC at least, ranked takes 10 mins+ to find a match) and diving it further would be silly.

I'll be first to say that Bait shield fuze and Pulse "C4" Surprise are the two operators that I have the most fun off.

Fuck, Pulse is pretty much overpowered if you know what you're doing.

been playing this with tunngle for a while. it's one of the most fun( is funnest even a world) shooters I've played.

Any porn of the siege girls yet?

It's just weird that some people are doing it after already winning two rounds and playing as a team before. It's like they hate winning.


Good question actually.

I have like 10 death threats in my inbox over it.

We should play together sometime.
I am sure we have at least 10 people.

That guy's legs amuse me more than anything

Some


mostly shadshit

I want to see Frost get spit roasted by Bandit Jaeger behind a shield in a corner of the room.

*Bandit and Jaeger

Buck got buffed several times in a row, and hasnt received a nerf yet since the last buff Unless it was a ninja nerf that wasnt documented Which im sure there wasnt you're just bad

So are you shit for brains, microtransaction defending millennial cumstains all saying the Season Pass is nothing but skins too?

…yes?
The only other thing the season pass does is give you access to new operators one week early when they're released and you don't have to spend in-game currency to buy them. That's it. Why anyone would pay real money for that, I have no idea.

Ubishit now doing something they've should've done in the first fucking place.
archive.is/PeUta

Nah, these things never go well.

This have you seen that shit show of a planetside 2 Holla Forums group?


His shotgun got nerfed since ubi didnt want people using it as a killing tool more of a breaching one but in result it nerfed his breaching aswell

I hope some of you dont do this

If you grab a hostage and throw it into the enemy's electric barb wire, can it kill the hostage and count as a win for you?

...

GOTYAY

Anyway, other than how fucky the shields can be sometimes (get shot once in the hand, die instantly sometimes )and goddamn blackbeards shooting through windows I fucking love this game.

Literally every motherfucking horseshit F2P apologist has said this.

...

Nope, Navy seals are about cheesing the enemy through either the fucking gun shield, or Valkyrie's tiny head hitbox and spam shotgun.
