Buck getting grenades and IQ now getting 100% gadget information are huge deals.

It basically plucks them from the garbage bin and makes them really god damn strong. Buck needed frags bad because his only contribution to his team was a good gun, with a specialized function attached, which Glaz already had and did way better. With frags he now is really good at engaging the enemy along with a shield.

IQ getting the outlines of her enemy gadgets and being able to actually see means that she can now realistically use her gadget and relay meaningful information to the team. It used to be pretty much worthless because it only really told you what room they were in sometimes, and vague gadget locations weren't useful.

Frost losing C4 means she now dies like a bitch if caught alone vs a shield, which is good. She was too good as a roamer.

The Montagne buff is also amazing. No more strafing him to win.

Next DLC soon, details revealed.

Caveira is the defensive Operator of the two. As such, she possesses the “Silent Step” skill that enables her to sneak up on enemies to immobilize and then interrogate them to reveal their teammates’ location. Her arsenal includes an M12 and SPAS-15 for primary weapons, a PRB92 as a secondary, and Nitro Cell C4 and Barbed Wire for gadgets.

As the attacker, Capitão carries a tactical crossbow that can fire asphyxiating bolts that burn oxygen within a certain radius, as well as micro smoke grenades that can mask positions and team movements. Capitão also has an M-249 and PARA-308 for primary weapon options, a PRB92 for secondary, and frag and stun grenades rounding her available arsenal.

Operation Skull Rain will also have a new map for teams to do battle. Set in a Brazilian favela, this new map supports exterior shell destruction, making it Rainbow Six Siege’s most destructible map to date. The new map will be free for all players.

Finally, the development team will also add several tweaks and improvements to the overall Rainbow Six Siege experience. Perhaps the biggest of these is the addition of a Tactical Realism custom game mode. By popular request, the Tactical Realism mode prevents players from marking enemies, allowing only the timer, compass, gadget, and weapon panels to be visible in the HUD. Additionally, there are no kill confirmations, and more realistic magazine management will be put into play. The idea is to push players to rely even more on their teammates and communication for information on enemy locations and kill counts.

A new angled grip attachment and a new surrender system will also be introduced in the update. The angled grip makes the transition between hip fire and ADS much faster, creating a faster-paced style of combat. Meanwhile, the new surrender system makes it possible for your team to surrender during a ranked match with a majority vote, but matches can only be surrendered before the third round.

More details on Operation Skull Rain will be revealed during the Season Two Xbox Pro League Finals livestream on July 30 at 3AM CET. For more on Rainbow Six Siege, check out our previous coverage

-Some Attackers now get Claymore mines to help stop flanking
-Some Defenders have had their Nitro Cells replaced with Impact Grenades
-Two new barrel attachments
-Several gun buffs

Its a really good update, I have no problems with any of the changes. I just hope they can keep up the quality in the future, and do some stuff to make shields/tachanka more useful.

It's around 30k on PC daily according to the community manager. Gotta remember it uses Uplay and most people bought it on Uplay or a Uplay code for the big discounts, so Steam count isn't accurate. Also alive on consoles.

They also hit 10 million registered players last month.

Big news for Siege. Year 2 season pass has been announced as Siege is very profitable for Ubi.

Big things coming this patch are full body skins, removal of the ACOG from the SAS secondary SMG, caliber based destruction, and a ton of bug fixes.

You won't get your true rank until around 30 games. Rank at 10 matches is just an estimation.

I played so much Demon Hunter Pulse but I know there were like 3 nerfs in a row, nerfing hipfire as well as the sensor.

Not getting good is what you are doing wrong.
I bought this game about 1 week ago and already put 20 hours in, after 15h I started getting good and it feels good.

Turn off bloom

Remember that this game isnt a real shooter, gunplay is 30% of the game

You get a spare drone, fucking use it you autist

Don't fall for noob trap operators

Cameras are your friends

Wallbanging beats and clear

Noticed this, only very rarely will you be shooting someone who is aware of you. Because they'd be shooting you and you'd be dead if they are

Copybass wrote:You get a spare drone, fucking use it you autist

It keeps getting shot
Also if your original drone survives the setup phase you can go back to it and use it again. Useful stuff

Copybass wrote:Don't fall for noob trap operators

Such as? I've noticed a lot of them seem kind of pointless. But then thats not very helpful either because on defence they all seem useless. Except Rook. Rook is good.

Copybass wrote:Cameras are your friends

Until they get shot anyway. People seem to have their locations memorised

C. Drone piloting is part of keeping your drone safe, learn to hide it and how to dodge people. Additionally learn to use drone holes to trap people. Having someone see your drone and tricking them into chasing it to a drone hole where you proceed to shoot their feet or wallbang them is a hilariously free kill.

D. Good Defensive Ops would be Bandit (Electricity makes breaching charges useless, kills drones in wire, makes wire hurt people), Jager (Low level play mostly - no grenades is cool but the big thing is he's the only Defender with a rifle meaning he's able to longrange onetap - May have changed with the new DLC?), Smoke (Nests are area denial), Caviera (Free Wallhacks are fucking OP), Valkyrie is fucking insane (Her Cameras are small and pretty hard to see, learn the right spots for them and you're terrifying) and overall anyone with a Nitro is great. Echo is SUPPOSEDLY good but I havent played Japan DLC yet

Good Offensive is a meme - Blackbeard WAS good but got nerfed, you usually want thermal charges + 4 frag grenadiers. Serious.

E. Valkyrie AKA Hollywood cams fix this, plus it all depends on your luck whether or not you get opponents who know the maps.

F. Shooting through a wall > Breaching. I accidentally a word.

He's still great, the nerfs were because a recent buff to his scanner made him too good/autoshotguns in general had too little damage falloff

Guess who is listed as having a 5.0 to 1 Win-loss rate?
This guy

Guess who actually sucks really badly?
You guessed it. Me again. I think their system might need some work because I'm terrible and bad

The system works in that you get placed high after 10 matches, then get your true rank by 30. This is why rock placed Silver 2 and ended up Copper 1, the lowest you can go, by 20 or so matches.

Keep playing and you'll probably be in silver.

DrPillzRedux · Thu May 11, 2017 5:33 pm

Not fully canceled, just merged with other seasons.

Chinese and 1 Polish op come with a map in August
South Koreans and the other Polish op come in November, with one map. Only 3 maps this year though.

So instead of doing the bug fixing as normal updates like any sane developer, they cut a map out that was promised.
