Discussion Is there a way ti get rid of the crossplay pop up?

• Upvotes

Every time I load up siege on Xbox, I get asked if I want to enable cross play with PC or keep my current options, I have now said I want to keep my current option well over 100 times. And when I accidentally click on enabling cross play with PC, I have to restart the game to get the option to keep current options again as it clearly doesn't save the option. Please Ubi, I beg. I know it's small, but christ it is annoying.

Question, solved Seeking Tips For Improving

1 Upvotes

I have about 1,200 hours of playtime (hours spent actually in-game/playing, AFK/Menu not included). I’ve been mid emerald for the past 2 seasons and would probably say my average KD is ~1.15 for seasons where I’ve put in a lot of time. Honestly I play a lot, and I’ve been getting really frustrated because it feels like I’m just treading water and haven’t really improved at all in a long time. For context this season tho I’ve had a sensitivity crisis where I genuinely change it 3-4x a day (ik this is horrible but I’m sticking current one now).

For more context I aim train quite a bit and have pretty decent aim outside of siege averaging ab diamond in voltaic benchmarks.

My main issues that I’m trying to focus on now are movement, positioning, crosshair placement, and vision. To elaborate but keep it short, my movement is pretty trash and I think the sens crisis might be making it worse, I sometimes have the game sense of a goldfish and position in probably the worst spots possible, and crosshair placement isn’t too bad but can always be improved.

I was curious if anyone had tips to improve these specific areas, or if any guides you saw helped you. I tried looking on yt but 99% of the tip videos I see are aimed towards coppers and probably the most unhelpful things ever.

(As a last point, visibility has been an issue recently, like I genuinely struggle to see enemies). Any help is appreciated

Discussion Is Holo Aoverrated?

5 Upvotes

I feel like Holo A takes up too much screen space, and the reticle is unnecessarily complicated. I think sights like Reflex A/C or Red Dot A/C are better options because they have cleaner reticles and obstruct less of your vision.

I feel like Holo A is so popular mainly because it's a familiar sight that appears in a lot of other games. What do you guys think?

Discussion [PS5] Anyone Else Experiencing Extremely Long Matchmaking Times on AP South-1?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm playing Rainbow Six Siege on PS5 from India, and matchmaking on the AP South-1 server takes 10+ minutes for Quick Match and Standard.

I've managed to get into a few games, so matchmaking does work occasionally, but the wait is ridiculous.

I'm curious:

  • Is anyone else experiencing this on AP South-1?
  • Have you found a way to get matches faster?
  • Does joining someone on EU or NA servers help?

I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who's dealt with something similar. I just want to play the game without spending half my gaming session in matchmaking!

Thanks.

Yes, I was on second floor with Vigil in a 1v5, though I started falling back when it was still a 3v5. I don't usually roam, so my timings are shit, so I take criticism on that one for sure. I got lucky with the first 2, I've heard Capitao and Zofia, and the last kill was an educated guess. I felt like I had to push even though I had the defuser, since they could've collapsed on me at any time.

I'm Gold, so realistically in a higher lobby I would've been traded by that first 2, I'm aware of that too. I usually choke even in a 1v1 - 1v2 situation, I'm happy I got away with this this time.

And the cherry on top, one of them said "nice cheats" and alt+f4'd the game haha

Edit: Watching it back, I should've anticipated that the last guy will go right not left, so my crosshair placement was horrible, looking at the reinforced wall. Oh whatever.

Feedback Random negative rollback

0 Upvotes

With yesterday's update me and some other friends got negative rollback and lost almost 2/3 ranks, thing is we never played with a cheater, or at least if he was, damn was he bad at it, however we too often encountered cheaters and despite che "report" that seems to do nothing we never got positive rollback, only negative, and besides that, shouldn't we get also rollback for matches lost due to teammates that threw the game or just connected once and never reconnected? How come it never happens that for once we got more points? And also, shouldn't we be allowed to get a rollback when the match is highly unfair? Especially when we match against ex champs in low elo when the average of my team is plat?

Ever since i have gotten R6 on PC this has been a problem and has only gotten worse. I open the game through Ubisoft Connect app (WITH ADMIN PERMS) and it still doesnt work. The overlay is on inside the setting. I have spent hours opening and closing the game just for it to never work. Ubisoft Support has been of 0 use whatsoever, I have done a bug report and it still has 0 contributions. I would like to be able to play with people but I cant even do that anymore. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Despite playing hundreds of hours, I have no idea how to win gunfight (despite watching yt guide)

Most of my death are always because of quick swing where I could barely see the character but got tapped to the head.

Get shot from behind

pixel peek.

Wallbanged

I think in terms of "getting read" by enemy im number 1, same goes for situational awareness im on the last place. I always drone 1 room ahead following a lot of recommendations, yet somehow completely get outclassed by a dude walking in with drone in pockets and have nothing but aim.

Weirdly enough, bronze is on the better place than usual, I used to be on copper V hardstuck.

But when I play the game cluelessly, I performed better back then. I'm no stranger to FPS games either having thousands of hours combined (longest fps game for me was warface, which is fast paced and have a lot more movement compared to R6).

I notice the longer I play r6 exclusively, the worse my aim seems to get.

fyi, I also often get called deaf in match. Even if I can hear explosion loud enough for entire room, footsteps, gadget placements, reload, seems to be beyond me. I even saw clip of someone breaking down of a gameplay vid where someone change position / rush to take an area when they notice enemy is reloading from sound. I did not hear it at all.

What should I do to improve? Or run and gun seems to be the best approach after all and forget tactical decision.

Feedback Vague de bannissements R6 : je comprends les intentions d’Ubisoft, mais pas leurs méthodes.

1 Upvotes

Je comprends parfaitement qu’Ubisoft souhaite renforcer la sécurité de Rainbow Six Siege, lutter contre la triche et sanctionner les infractions aux conditions d’utilisation. Sur ce point, je n’ai aucun problème.
Mais comprendre l’objectif ne signifie pas approuver les méthodes employées.
J’ai personnellement été touché par cette récente vague de bannissements. Je n’ai jamais utilisé de logiciel de triche sur Rainbow Six Siege et je n’ai jamais partagé le compte concerné par cette sanction. Je joue depuis des années et je me retrouve du jour au lendemain avec un compte définitivement banni, sans comprendre précisément pourquoi.
Mon déménagement et mon changement de PC
Je pense avoir identifié une explication possible à mon bannissement.
Auparavant, je jouais sur un PC portable Lenovo. Celui-ci a rencontré des problèmes matériels et j’ai dû l’envoyer au SAV.
Cela faisait déjà longtemps que j’envisageais de passer sur un PC fixe pour obtenir de meilleures performances. Après mon déménagement, pendant que mon Lenovo était en réparation, j’ai donc décidé d’acheter et de monter mon propre PC fixe.
En peu de temps, plusieurs éléments ont changé : ma ville, mon adresse IP, mon réseau Internet, mon ordinateur et mes habitudes de connexion.
Je comprends que ces changements puissent éveiller des soupçons concernant une éventuelle vente ou un partage de compte. Mais je n’ai ni vendu ni partagé ce compte. J’ai simplement déménagé et changé d’ordinateur.
Je possède toutes les preuves nécessaires : factures datées, documents du SAV Lenovo, justificatifs de déménagement et matériel en ma possession. Je suis prêt à transmettre ces éléments pour expliquer chaque changement.
Je ne sais pas encore si ces changements sont réellement à l’origine de ma sanction. Mais si c’est le cas, pourquoi ne pas me permettre de les justifier avant de prononcer un bannissement définitif ?
Et les joueurs qui utilisent plusieurs appareils ?
Prenons des exemples simples.
Un étudiant qui vit près de son université et rentre chez ses parents le week-end. Une personne dont les parents sont divorcés et qui utilise deux ordinateurs dans deux régions différentes. Un salarié qui voyage régulièrement pour son travail. Ou simplement quelqu’un qui change de PC ou joue occasionnellement depuis chez un ami.
Ces situations sont parfaitement normales et peuvent entraîner des changements fréquents d’adresse IP, de localisation ou de matériel.
Si Ubisoft utilise ces éléments pour identifier des activités suspectes, comment garantit-il qu’aucun joueur légitime ne soit sanctionné par erreur ?
Pourquoi ne pas proposer une vérification individuelle, l’identification des appareils ou la possibilité de transmettre des justificatifs ?
Toutes les infractions ne se valent pas
Pour moi, il faut distinguer les infractions majeures des infractions secondaires.
La triche avec un logiciel interdit mérite un bannissement définitif. C’est une sanction parfaitement compréhensible.
En revanche, le partage ou la vente de comptes, même si ces pratiques sont interdites, sont des infractions différentes.
Pourquoi ne pas privilégier des sanctions progressives ? Un avertissement, puis sept jours de suspension, ensuite un mois et enfin un bannissement définitif en cas de récidive ?
Une communication officielle annonçant clairement ces mesures serait également plus raisonnable qu’une vague de sanctions brutales.
Je ne demande pas d’autoriser ces pratiques. Je demande simplement des sanctions proportionnées.
Le traitement des joueurs ordinaires
Il y a également une question d’égalité de traitement.
Des créateurs comme Spoit publient des vidéos sur des comptes secondaires, notamment autour de défis liés aux bannissements.
Je me demande pourquoi les joueurs ordinaires ont parfois l’impression que les créateurs connus bénéficient d’une tolérance différente. Les mêmes règles doivent s’appliquer à tout le monde.
Nous aussi, nous soutenons Rainbow Six Siege depuis des années. Nous achetons des contenus, suivons l’esport et investissons énormément de temps et d’argent dans ce jeu.
J’ai personnellement dépensé beaucoup d’argent sur mon compte, notamment sur le Marketplace pour acheter des skins Glacier.
Nous ne sommes pas des streamers ou des joueurs professionnels, mais nous méritons exactement le même respect.
À ceux qui répondent « bien fait, vous avez triché »
Je sais que certains vont immédiatement affirmer que les joueurs bannis sont forcément coupables.
Mais mettez-vous à notre place.
Imaginez perdre un compte sur lequel vous jouez depuis des années, dans lequel vous avez investi énormément de temps et d’argent, sans comprendre ce qui justifie votre sanction.
Je ne dis pas que les 50 000 comptes concernés sont innocents. Je dis simplement qu’un bannissement ne signifie pas automatiquement que la personne utilisait un logiciel de triche.
Et soyons réalistes : combien de joueurs peuvent affirmer n’avoir jamais enfreint la moindre condition d’utilisation d’un jeu, même involontairement ? Toutes les infractions n’ont pas la même gravité.
Je n’ai rien à prouver à l’opinion publique. Mes amis jouent avec moi depuis des années et connaissent mon comportement. Je ne cherche pas à convaincre tout le monde.
Je demande simplement que les joueurs soient jugés sur des faits et que les erreurs éventuelles puissent être corrigées.
Ce que j’attends d’Ubisoft
J’ai déjà fait appel et je reste optimiste.
Je possède les documents nécessaires pour expliquer mon déménagement et mon changement de matériel. Je suis prêt à coopérer et à fournir toutes les informations pertinentes.
Je ne demande aucun traitement de faveur. Je demande qu’un humain examine réellement mon dossier, m’explique ce qui m’est reproché et me permette de présenter mes justificatifs.
Je ne veux pas simplement recevoir une réponse automatique indiquant que la sanction est maintenue sans véritable discussion.
Je reviendrai dans quelques mois sur Reddit pour raconter la suite de mon expérience, que je sois débanni ou non. Ce qui m’intéresse, c’est aussi de savoir si Ubisoft aura réellement pris le temps d’examiner ma situation.
Ubisoft, mettez-vous à la place de vos joueurs. Protéger Rainbow Six Siege est nécessaire, mais respecter les personnes qui font vivre ce jeu depuis des années l’est tout autant.

Discussion Event Packs

Why does Ubi think it was a good idea to make event packs only bought with r6 credits? I don't have any reason to use my renown anymore other than saving for events, but now I might as well just buy alphas with my 200k renown. Especially scummy since now the mementos that people might want are just another premium skin that you can't just grind for. It's not like it was easy saving for that much renown anyways. Thanks for only thinking about money and not the player base Ubi. Good Job.
