Use your fucking gadgets/drones.
Information is king.
Play target drill to learn maps and basic callouts.
Map control and power positions are how you win rounds.
Crosshair placement is more important than raw aim.
USE YOUR FUCKING DRONES/CAMS BECAUSE INFORMATION IS KING
>>
>>
>>2021679
Don't sprint a lot. Siege has slow aim-down-sight speed compared to many FPS.
Echoing other anons: use drones, learn maps, communicate.
General formula for comms is [Operator] [Action] [Location].
>"Blitz breaching Main Lobby"
>"Kapkan crouched in Garage on 3 Ping"
>"Warden flanking metal stairs! Warden metal stair flank!" (Can repeat a comm if urgent)
Try not to spam yell at people: "This guy is here! I got shot over there!" Location names are given by the HUD compass, but there are lots of specific call-outs (usually a key object, color, or material, even Pro player names) which will be foreign to you as a noob, but it's part of the learning curve.
A lot to comms, but as newer player, even having basics is great.
Goes without saying, if you can get friends into it, it can be way more fun than queuing with randoms.
>>
>>2021679
Some gun basics:
Zero concept of velocity so guns function more like lasers (besides the recoil). If you aim a pistol center, it can hit true across the map. No leading or compensation required (been playing BF6 so this sticks out as different in Siege lol).
1 hit headshots.
Bullet penetration and caliber-based destructible walls and floors.
Flash Hider and Vertical Grip are universal attachments on most guns with a few exceptions. Sights and laser sight are more preference, there's a gun range and practice modes to dial in instead of live matches.

I don't care.
If we're in ranked and I see you die at any time from a spawnpeek, I am going to assume you are either a peak gold or spent all your time during the drone phase on your phone not paying attention.
In either case you are shit desu
>>
>>2024249
agreed, but there's no way for new players to know how avoidable they are, or that some routes are just so much worse than others.
I think they're still one of the roughest parts of the new-player experience, and people keep doing them as long as they keep working (until ~high emerald)

I need some serious advice on this. Anyone who is Plat and above, please tell me what you think:
Let's say you're in a sweaty, "high-ranked" lobby and you're the last man standing in a 1v1, 1v2, or 1v3 scenario- how exactly should you consciously conduct your movement? Let's say the enemy is vaguely aware of where you are, and are holding an angle at your general position. They are already aiming down their sights waiting for you. Time is not on your side.
Should you:
A.) Approach the doorway with a very basic strafe-peek? (You know, alternate between the A and D keys while you try and get a glimpse inside the room?)
B.) Approach the doorway with a shaiiko peek?
C.) Approach the doorway with a slightly more complex hashom peek?
I know that in all cases you're likely to die, but which method would result in you receiving the LEAST damage and not get immediately headshot when entering the doorway, and would also overall be the least time-consuming?
>>
>>2029452
Your intent with any peaking / baiting at the angle is to draw out fire so you can calculate their position from the tracers or force a reload from them at which point you can move in / reposition.
Beyond that, gadgets to cause distraction or take a longer rotation. Any time you're man disadvantage and
>enemy is vaguely aware of where you are
applies, you must play aggressively with more movement (not careless, but necessary). Getting collapsed onto in a corner = certain death. Being mobile and taking the engagements one at a time is the better percentage to clutch.
>>
>>2030915
>Being mobile and taking the engagements one at a time is the better percentage to clutch.
Replying to myself, obviously different scenarios = play it different. Maybe you're Mute shotgun and you have the close door angle on multiple who need to flood in, then staying put and letting them move into you may be wiser ofc. Different ops, scenarios, sites, etc.

bruh even f2p dual front shitpile i couldn't find a match (just wanted some extra points from challenge). hey ubi why the FUCK did you waste money and time on that?
as dumb as it is, a warzone-mode clone probably would have done better and garnered more hype than dual front.
>>
>>2029452
I hit champ without ever learning how to shaiko peek or hashom peek.
Do them if you enjoy practicing them, but you absolutely do not need them.
The bigger their number advantage, the more aggressive you want to be (you may even want to full swing the first guy right away if its really bad)
You want to force a series of one-on-one before they can group up and figure out what they all need to be holding
If defuser has not been planted and its a 1v4 or 1v5, sit tight and bait the first 2 or 3 frags. This is sadly extremely effective even in champ lobbies

I want to like dual front, but the map is massive and feels soulless and runs like shit on my laptop which generally isn't even that shit even though its aging. You never really get the experience of a larger fight because in practice it plays like two seperate 3v3s or 2v4s and when it then runs like shit with jaggy framerates that makes it ten times more difficult to win a fight, the 30 minute or whatever match time just becomes a long arduous chore of eating shit for 30 minutes where half the time is spend just navigating the map rather than fighting the enemy team.

Shield Guard
Nothing smart was said except for that they're currently "developing a new anti-cheat method"
Dual Front
Dual front lets developers do some experimentation outside of Core siege. They are planning to do big updates for it in Y11 (bigger than neutral zone task)
Esports
Nothing smart was said about this either. Live events are cool I guess.
Operators
Devs still want to reach 100 operators goal. Though it is getting harder and harder to come up with new unique ideas.
Interesting fact - some operators mechanics were thought of after looking at current gameplay meta or ingame lore
Remasters
Remasters are thought as a way to keep old operators relevant and loved by players.
Karpazis added that some old operator features may be added back during anniversary event in Y10S4
Realism
Dev team working hard when deciding to spend their resources for each season into 1 surreal or 1 tactical 3D skin.
What I meant is that they hearing different demands from players and try to satisfy them all given limited resources.
Lore
Current narrative direction is praised by community and devs like to see that. More lore based content (incl. events) will come.
Thailand and Aruni
Corporate speech on how important PLACE_NAME is for entire community.
Corporate speech on how PLACE_NAME local community size lead to designing an operator who was born there in the lore
The next 10 years
While they keep getting funds and resources to continue developing they will, well, continue developing.

> Be Spoit
> Go 1-10 against NIP
I bet he's wishing he just stayed on M80, holy fuck. By now I legitimately think Spoit is the most overrated PL player in recent history. Yes, he won "Rookie of the year" years ago- but what has he accomplished since then? Jackshit.
Bro can beat Shaiiko in shitty YouTube 1v1s, but can't beat him in any meaningful tournaments that will improve his PL standing and career lmfao.
I think it's time to chalk Spoit y'all, all he's got going for him is being the 1v1 master

Ubisoft is smoking crack as usual when it comes to the breacher buffs next season baka.
Before next season:
Ace- S TIER
Hib- A TIER
Mav- B TIER
Therm- A TIER
During next season:
Ace- S++ TIER
Hib- S TIER
Mav- A TIER (Maybe even S TIER because his fucking nades will be back)
Therm- A TIER
I am fucking violently ill that Ace is going to have even more health, in addition to no longer being countered by Mute. Ace is already nonstop banned in ranked as is, soon he'll basically be an unplayable permabanned operator.
Fuck's sake
>>
>>2063852
Now that I think about it more, Mav might even be S++ TIER because he'll go back to making footholes, blindly throwing in a singular frag through the footholes made, and destroying all wall denial except Kaid claws.
I did not miss that bullshit, and now it's returning. Goddamnit.
>>
>>2063861
And if that wasn't bad enough, I completely forgot grenade lineups are superbly easy now due to the visual indicators when preparing to throw grenades. These weren't in the game seasons ago.
All Bandit trickers will be getting shit on by the old veteran Mav players.
I am seething, send help bros

Just finished watching the reveal panel.
No real apology for the content drought and hacker infestation is unacceptable.
Ubisoft is still not taking this seriously. How many times have we heard this before
>We pinky swear we will do something about cheating this time guys!!!
On top of that shilling multiple elites in the reveal and two week early access for a fucking gun? You have got to be shitting me.
This is a spit in the face. That nigger lover kike Yves should be groveling on stage and begging players for forgiveness.
I'll go over my thoughts on the balance changes in another post.
>>
>>2064183
>DMR
Favorite addition this season. This will be the meta pick on every operator that has it.
>Thatcher
I like it. Depending on the range could be good early game intel like IQ for scoping out where defenses are concentrated.
>Mute
More consistency is always good. Curious if the increased range is enough to counter thermite now.
>Castle
I like this change since it never made any sense why a metal barrier couldn't be electrified. No mention if this works with bandit.
>Thermite
Overtuned. Shotgun was unnecessary and three charges makes Hibana's niche as best breacher for hatches irrelevant now.
>Ace
No opinion. Never thought he was that good outside of being the best fragger of the group. There are a few sites where he is strong but breaching a larger area is generally better and no smokes for plants is a big downside.
>Hibana
I'm very happy with the changes to her gadget but it's a little odd that she got the DMR when her 20 round mag has always been an inherent flaw with hibana and now it's a non issue. I would have preferred to see her get the secondary shotty and thermite get the DMR.
>Mav
Retarded change. Mav is very strong he does not need frags and I say this as a mav main.
>Ranked
Still hiding actual rank for no fucking reason and they pussied out of a true solo queue.
I think there were many other operators who were more deserving of a facelift.
>>
>>
>>2064258
>ackshually he had frags before
great observation there genius. smg-11 had acog too ubisoft better bring that back since clearly it wasn't removed for a reason.
>because Mav will be reverted back to hard-countering Bandit-tricking for free
you don't need frags to cuck bandit. mav tricking is not hard if you know how it works. he has one of the only gadgets in the game with zero counters, he's a 3 speed, and has a great kit that is only getting better with an automatic pistol and frags. now he needs to blow up bulletproof gadgets too? where is the tradeoff for having such a powerful gadget?
>>
>>2064289
> you don't need frags to cuck bandit. mav tricking is not hard if you know how it works.
You don't need them, but frags are among the easiest ways
There is no tradeoff, he just gets them back now and is uncounterable unless you throw a C4 near a hole Mav is making and hopes it kills him
Thank Ubisoft, no refunds
>>
>>2063871
>All Bandit trickers will be getting shit
True. Maybe it's a first reaction, but overall it's a crazy Attacker Hard Breach buff right? Even before this update, disconnects have developed like Pros using Mira proactively (open so you can C4 kill / impact trick hard breach) to counter. But you almost never see that in common Ranked because the risk is high and players are not accustomed to that kind of coordinate line-up. So there are less counters on Defense for average players to pull off, your walls are just getting opened on most main sites
>>
>>
>>
>>2064289
>>2064321
"there is no counter to maverick"
Maybe at lower levels mav tricking is nice and safe, but at higher ranks people bring jager to catch the nades, and will shoot back when trying to mav trick
I almost never see maverick tricking in diamond or champ lobbies because it takes too long and is super risky for the Mav.
If you have enough support from your team smoking/counterpeeking the holes as you trick, you deserve to get wall, you're committing a ton of resources
>>
>>2074840
> Maybe at lower levels mav tricking is nice and safe
Stop with that retarded argument in your anecdotal lobbies. Mav is used all the time in pro league, which blows any ranked lobby you've ever been in completely out of the water- and even in PL, Mav regularly gets walls down.
Are you gonna call pros "low level" now? Shut your bitch ass up
>>
>>2074840
>and will shoot back when trying to mav trick
it's literally impossible to shoot mav on any wall he can rappel on which is the majority of important outside walls and any hatch which isn't hugging a wall. Even outside of those situations it is still borderline suicide to peek if he has any teammates with him and he can prone cut at an angle to make you have to stick your face right up to the wall to even see him. if you can't get any value out of mav you're just shit at him. the only counter to mav is c4 which either means risking not having any denial on the wall to begin with or shooting the battery which telegraphs a C4 throw and he can just sprint out of the way.
>>
>>2074840
Jager's and Wamai's gadgets cannot catch frags placed just slightly outside a line of sight Mav has made in a reinforcement wall
This will allow Mav to destroy Bandit's batteries basically for free, and all Jager/Wamai can do is helplessly watch in the background
How are you supposed to be in Diamond-Champ ELO but you don't know about that major issue? Are you one of those shitter Ranked 2.0 Champs that would get dumpstered by the old Ranked 1.0 Champs?

Everyone, I bring pathetic news:
As usual, Ubisoft has lied regarding this season's "Ranked 2.0" adjustment.
Visual/peak rank is supposed to have allegedly been taken moreso into account with the launch of this season, yet I literally just got out of barely beating a PC peak Diamond player as someone on PC that's never even been Diamond.
Ranked 2.0 is still completely fucked, come back and try ranked once Ranked 3.0 is launched

Good evening, Operators.
I'm one of the faggots that oversees our board's football/soccer/divegrass team.
Since it's a new season, we're renewing our Roster, so I wanted to see if you faggots wanted to be part of it.
>What's this?
It's AI vs AI football played in Pro Evolution Soccer, almost every board from 4chan has a team, and /vm/ is no exception.
>Okay, what to do?
Since we want/need new players, I want you guys to decide if you wanna be part of this, and if so, which character/meme you want to send as a representative so it gets polled with all other suggestions. If chosen, your suggestion will be part of our 23 player team.
Here's our team's wiki page and current roster:
https://implyingrigged.info/wiki//vm/

If you guys have any question, don't be shy and ask away, I'm gonna stay around.

As far as I'm concerned, any pro that willingly plays against non-pros in a ranked environment is generally dogshit
Those faggots will go 20-0, 15-5, etc. against regular people that don't get paid to play Siege 24/7, and then get wafflestomped in pro league
I guarantee you that if I had 10k hours dumped into Siege and was a pro player, I'd only ever be scrimming 24/7 and you'd never catch me in ranked unless it was magically guaranteed I fight doomstacks of Champs and other pros every game, because that's unfair as fuck otherwise
>>
>>2143337
I mean, seriously: I just fucking looked up Hot and that douche has been Diamond since OPERATION FUCKING HEALTH. Practically the very inception of Siege as we know it.
It is virtually impossible for a non-pro to compete against someone like that

Yeah, massive worldwide hack, the economy got killed with hackers giving 1 million R6 credits and the marketplace imploded. All content creators got permabanned and many others have gotten fake bans
Now the game got taken down (it might still be offline? I didn't check) and we don't have any news about it yet. Like the other anon said, a rollback should be a no-brainer but who knows what else they've done in their backend
>>
>>2153541
wow lol yeah i wonder what action ubi will take. funny enough my usual way of using the marketplace is listing black ice for pretty high asking price and my smg-12 listing sold for 4000 obviously as a result of hacked credits (wish i had put it even higher like 10k). would be cool if my situation slips through the cracks or if it'll be a complete rollback for entire player base.

>>
>>

A rollback is currently ongoing and afterwards, extensive quality control tests will be executed to ensure the integrity of accounts and effectiveness of changes. The team is focused on getting players back into the game as quickly as possible. Please know that this matter is being handled with extreme care and therefore, timing cannot be guaranteed. We will provide another update as soon as we know more.
Thank you all for your patience and understanding as we continue to tackle this.

i was already committed to never spending real money for credits or anything in-game on R6 for a while (previously did before marketplace), but now more than ever. that shit was an embarrassment, and the game's life is shorter rather than longer. call me a sucker but i wanted to believe in 5-10 more years of the game. extreme doubt now

NEW ARMOR SYSTEM EXPLAINED
There are now 5 different armour systems in the game
Light - 70hp, Fastest
Tactical - 90 hp, Fast
Medium - 110 hp, Middle
Heavy - 130 hp, Slow
Juggernaut 150 hp, slowest
3 Speeds: Light, Tactical and Medium
2 Speeds: Tactical, Medium and Heavy
1 Speeds Medium, Heavy and Juggernaut
Medium is the only one EVERY operator can use, meaning some ops you think are TOO slow like Zofia or Gridlock, can be made slightly faster at a cost for health

>>2021679
1. cheaters everywhere
2. as soon as you win even 1 round, the enemy team will toggle their cheats
3. SMGs are the only viable automatics anymore due to 1 shot head shot rule
4. learn an operator that has selfish abilities on attack and defense, as teamwork doesnt exist in this game anymore. It's CoD, but slower
5. learn spawnpeek spots, learn to avoid them, and learn to use them. (abuse the shit out of them too)
and remember this the most. This game has had the fun optimized out of it.

thoughts? i think this is a brilliant step for the franchise
obviously they don't want to compete with siege by making another shooter, turning it into a turn-based game can let them iterate on the slow-paced strategic of the old games
i hope there's some elements that resemble the classic planning phaseand the option to romance and bang iana like a fire emblem game
>>
>>2194798
It might be okay, but its not a good sign everyone totally forgot about the last Cancyverse turn-based tactics game. Really, if you want a something that resembles the planning phase of the original game, there's Frozen Synapse and the contemporary Private Military Manager, alongside the elephant-in-the-room of XCom. Not that Ubisoft can't make another good Rainbow Six game, but we're far past the point where you can slap "Tom Clancy's" on a game cover with a guy brandishing an H&K gun and guarantee its quality.

Isn't this game's movement a lil bit glitchy? when you prone and then press the sprint button, the character will get up, do a lil hop and just walk, if you switch to your pistol, he starts sprinting for real
and with lean mode on hold, if you lean right then hold lean left at the same time, the character does not lean left, you can if you reverse the direction

they cancelled prince of persia and massively delayed black flaggot remake by 1 year
however it seems like siege will become one of their major focus now. i hope this brings more funds to the team and we end up getting more content. it'll likely take a while though, so maybe in 2-3 years we'll see the results.
this mid-season patch has been great.

would a new game work if they port all the cosmetics and incorporate coop modes like extraction but more grounded? i think they can also add back more realistic lighting as long as it's server-side and bring back nightmaps with tarkov flashlight so that people can have more underbarrel options

Dudes. What the FUCK is up with weirdos tryharding so much in unranked? I'm currently Emerald and I've been playing Siege since High calibre- and I can honestly say that the sweatiest matches I've ever had, have always been in unranked and NEVER ranked.
It just doesn't make sense. Randoms on the enemy team will straight-up bust out pro league tier strats in goddamn unranked and put up double digits whenever I'm trying to relax and complete a few Ubisoft connect challenges and am not prepared at all whatsoever, but then those some randoms will get fucking dumpstered in ranked and hardly get 5 kills.
I'm not kidding: only like 2 weeks ago in unranked, I fought against this mega-tryharding Champ. I looked up his profile afterwards, and I shit you not: his lifetime unranked/quick-match kda was like 2.20, but his lifetime ranked kda was hovering around 1.20.
What's the point of being fucking Superman when your ELO is not on the line, but then when your ELO is actually at stake, you're suddenly a normal player??
Does it all just boil down to ego-stroking?

You'll probably get fucked up a lot unless you enjoy that type of competitive FPS experience, there is a decently high knowledge barrier in the form of map callouts, gadgets, reinforcements and angles
I'd suggest finding a friend to share the pain with

At a certain point they completely detached your visual rank from the value the game uses to determine who you should be playing against
If you start a new season, the game still knows you're a plat and will match you with other plats, even though your rank says you're copper
You will rank up much faster though because how high your invisible MMR is determines how quickly you boost through the shitter ranks

not at all, its way more complex and interesting.
The maps alone are more dynamic with many more angles + destruction, and then there's gadgets.
CS caters to a more autistic, repetitive experience.
It is nice having so few callouts to remember though

siege will always be my favorite "tactical" """competitive""" first person shooter.
CS bores me to death; i'd rather just not play any video games for a day than have to get on counter strike lel. i seriously do not see the appeal in the boring robotic feel of the round-to-round gameplay, the guns, the strategies, the fucking, people who religiously play CS. i'd rather work a part time job than play CS.
siege 100% clears it with the unpredictability factor alone plus, i can aim down the fucking sights of my gun in siege. fuck CS. lmao
COD and battlefield are total slop games, i couldn't name a single reason to play the most recent versions of either these IPs.
overwatch and valorant do not interest me, playerbases are full of whiny faggots and harpies ("valorant egirl/eboy" is a trope for a reason.
battle royale types like apex, PUBG or warzone are not what i'm looking for in a multiplayer game.
similarly, milsims like ARMA or Squad are way way waaaaaay too demanding for me to get any actual enjoyment out of them.
are there any reason(s) that you keep coming back to r6 siege, despite it all?

We used to be extremely active on /vg/ but now we're not allowed to make threads there anymore. Hell, we're on /vm/ and we can't call these threads a general at all, since generals are banned on /vm/.
Most are unaware of /r6g/ having moved on this board.

It's not surprising. Siege is a very cerebral game in a genre that already has trouble appealing to anyone besides white military nerds. If you're not the 0.1% who were blessed with Beaulo hands and an adderall prescription you won't get far in this game as a midwit. Being an Ubisoft game instantly kills any discussion of it on /v/.
If we were allowed to have a general on /vg/ it wouldn't make a difference. /r6g/ died from lack of posters not from mods deleting threads. All the attempted revivals back then died after a few posts. Besides /vm/ is a comfy board it's nice not having to deal with schizos like most generals on /vg/.

most rewarding + adrenaline rush FPS. other FPS are slop or boring as you say. for me, the ceiling of my own improvement and "mastery," of the game feels infinite. clutching up and/or shitting on people with sick plays in R6 feels so amazing because of the context of how difficult it is to do so

It bothers me quite a lot that they're all using the wrong weapons
Snake's Pistol is some sort of mishmash of his Mk.23 from MGS1 and 2 (by the LAM) and the Mk.2 from MGS4 (Barrel and wierd bolt thing in the back?)
Ocelot is using a fucking snub nose and not an SAA and Meryl isn't using a deagle. I can't tell if Sam's using his 5.7 or not
>>
>>2243131
it's supposed to be tribute to both original MGS games, stop nerding out so hard, i bet the op designers know more about his weapons than you or me but they do have to work in the confine of siege's aesthetics

Probably copyright reasons. John Clark and Domingo Chavez debuted in Tom Clancy's books a decade before Rainbow Six (either version) came out, and legal ownership of all Jack Ryan-related things, besides "Tom Clancy's" games, are controlled by his family. Yes, Deimos is actually Morris from the 1st R6 game, but he is one of many original operators created for the game and didn't appear in the novel version.

Is technical performance in Siege still currently fucked for anyone else right now? I'm dealing with getting halved FPS, jitters, and packet loss but stutters are virtually gone. Last season though, of course, the performance of R6 was PERFECT. It all went to shit this season.
When will Ubisoft actually bring out some helpful hotfixes??

yeah, all the little ubishit shills loved Y10 too, which had some of the worst cheating in the history of the game.
everyone thought SiegeX was going to make the game good again, it didn't.
The community has been begging for soloQ ranked for so long, most of us have moved on.
Uibslop finally "delivers" and it's closed to champs.
go ahead, fall for "ubisoft is listening!" memes again, you'll get burned.

operators don't take that long to unlock. older ones are discounted and the game gives you a ton of free credits for doing the assignments. there's also weekly challenges to earn more.
you're mainly paying for ranked access and the option to skip the grind. there's no power creep either you can get by with the starter operators just fine they just might not be the ideal in all situations.
to give you a quick example thermite is the starter hard breacher and he can open the most walls but he has to place his charges by hand so he's riskier than the other hard breachers.

valorant, siege have no generals despite there being more things to talk about than 99% of the gacha slops on /vg/, CS has a general but it's too slow so it can survive only on /vm/ and they always talk about e-celebs and their degenerate gamba scene instead of the game itself

>most games are noobs being steamrolled by experienced players
IIRC quick match has no MMR so that might be why. My ranked and unranked games are generally pretty balanced.
>you see the same names game after game
A lot of players use the auto generated alias option which pulls from a small list of words.
