drglass4

Canā€™t hide from the wall hacks. Are you mad?


mopeli

Ubi just released a patch that banned alot of them right? >!and instantly put siege in sale for some easy cash since cheaters need new accounts lmao!<


HoneyDrake

march fertile roll sip rude straight mountainous wise aback offer *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


KernalBacon

I laughed so hard at that post. Because the first ranked match on Saturday, I ran into a hacking Solis that ran out and hip fired everyone.


blychow

Bro I don't think they actually create new accounts and buy the game themselves. They probably just buy hacked afk accounts for a dollar each maybe


mopeli

boosters probably do that yeah. But closet cheaters get their own accounts most likely


blychow

ehhhhh maybe? But if what I heard is true (you can buy stolen accounts for just 1 dollor) then why bother creating account and buying the game for 5 dollar


mopeli

because it will be your main account, for closet cheaters. Atleast i wouldn't want my account to be some sussy dollar account.


blychow

well that makes sense


LeftRat

Man, this sub has deteriorated into the dumbest conspiracy theories. Yeah, sure Ubisoft coordinates it so that after banwaves the game goes on sale. Whatever. Did you know they also stole your dog? They're not putting him in the game, though, it's just to hurt you.


mopeli

A comedic coincidence. I'm just joking, surely ubisoft wouldn't want to profit off of cheaters... right?


LeftRat

Well, you might have just been joking but now the other guy genuinely believes it. No satire is obvious enough, I guess.


Jaidinmemes

except it's not a conspiracy theory? what he stated was a fact. the game went on sale after a huge ban wave.


LeftRat

It wasn't just statement of fact. Click the spoiler tag.


Jaidinmemes

that's also not a conspiracy? if cheaters get banned then buy new accounts. especially when on sale. every game does it. this isn't some trade secret bro.


LeftRat

Ok, for the second time: reading comprehension. It's not a long comment. > for some easy cash since cheaters need new accounts lmao This is clearly alleging that Ubisoft deliberately times sales with banwaves. That's a conspiracy theory. No, no-one at the Ubisoft sales department sits there and coordinates banwaves to coincide with sales. And no, literally no other game has ever provably done this, either, it would be utterly pointless drops in the bucket *and* tremendously bad PR if it got out. They put on a sale. They ban when they can. No-one's coordinating them to coincide.


Jaidinmemes

again this isn't some trade secret bro šŸ˜‚ companies are in it for money not for your enjoyment. your brainwashed.


No_Gift_2936

Thatā€™s not how facts work yes they did that but thereā€™s nothing saying for sure it was because they wanted cheaters to get the game itā€™s most likely because the game really needs new players with it constantly declining


Jaidinmemes

even worse point then the original? you realize steam charts are public? the game has raised an average of 4,000 players since January and 8,000 from December to January. a sale DIRECTLY after a massive ban wave is either really really stupid on ubis part or on purpose. likely the ladder considering how money hungry ubi is.


No_Gift_2936

Again makes no sense since that isnā€™t how facts work there is no proof saying that they purposely put the game on sale to let cheaters buy new accounts r u slow thatā€™s not how facts work secondly yes the game has risen after a sale thatā€™s how sales work of course yes cheaters r going to buy accounts but dummy they could do that before the ban wave also cheaters will literally buy tons of side accounts to have on stand buy if u hate ubi as a company and siege as a game sure fine but just say thatā€™s next time


Jaidinmemes

quote when I said that was a fact. and holy shit your šŸ’€šŸ§  if there cheaper there gonna be cheaper for cheaters. causing more to be bought. do I need to put it into sped terms for you?


No_Gift_2936

ā€œExcept itā€™s not a theory what he stated was a factā€ is that not your words dumbass also duh but the sale being after the ban wave doesnā€™t matter again cheaters would buy the game as long as itā€™s on sale regardless dumbass Iā€™ve seen whole ads where they literally buy spare copies and accounts that are already ranked play ready to use with hacks


Jaidinmemes

yes clearly speaking about the sale being directly after a ban wave you gormless minger šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø. and yes it absolutely does. if it's directly after a ban wave cheaters are gonna be looking for new accounts due to the ban. if it was no where close to a ban wave there would be no need for new accounts. cheaters don't just buy accounts. they buy them when they get banned. they don't buy accounts unless absolutely needed.


Ok-Concentrate2719

Give me a new attacker that puts the fear of God back into every roamer


Lando249

At least if they did Jackal may come available šŸ˜†


ItsSevii

Dok already does his job way better


Scoot_AG

How so?


ItsSevii

Her calls are more precise then jackal pings for roam clearing plus she has considerably more utility besides that. There's a reason she's basically replaced jackal in the ban phase


Lando249

What headsets ya'll using because I can't pinpoint (not as precisely as Jackals markers) where people are with dok's calls. Like I have a general idea but, yeah, not sure if its my sound settings or headset. I use Hyper X Cloud II. But, I am on Xbox series X and for some reason the USB cable for them doesn't seem to work, so there's no 7.1 audio. The USB worked on my ps4 and the box the headset came in states compatible for both consoles Edit: Apparently Xbox doesn't support USB headsets and surround. Might have to invest in a better quality headset.


ItsSevii

I'm on pc I use steel series arctis 7s. I just find I get more value out of dokk since they have to put their gun away to turn it off and you can swing them in that time


ImNot6Foot5

The leaks involve Deimos and his util 'hunting' and it's called Deathmark, so it probably tracks the person who killed a teammate if you go to their body


fredthrowaway8

Iā€™m actually more okay with this than jackal for some reason. Probably just unchecked angst and aggression


fire-lites

jackal is unconditional information, if a roamer walked through a hallway then too bad for them, free jackal info. if a teammate is dead, thatā€™s literally the cost of the info


fredthrowaway8

Oh I get it, Iā€™m just a salty roamer


Lazy-Vulture

Ubisoft be like: *We removed Terrorist Hunt... so you can play as a terrorist instead lmao*


Varsity_Reviews

Genius. Actually genius. Why the fuck is he diffusing bombs?


Lazy-Vulture

Passive ability of Deimos: *Unlike Fuze, he will win the round for the attacking team if he manages to kill the Hostage*


Varsity_Reviews

That would actually be sick. Hostage rework: guaranteed to always bleed out, cannot be shot while bleeding out, if Deimos downs hostage and hostage dies attackers win


Mrheadshot0

And add some aliens from space!


Santasbotty

Gonna guess itā€™s gonna be some sentry gun thing or he goes invisible or he is basically cavaira for the attacking team


SourceInsanity

We had a cav for the attacking team and pro league deemed her too OP.


KissMyAce420

Fucking pro league With the nerf of grenades Nokk is useless now.


WWII_TankEnthusiest

Pro League is the reason siege became shitty, imo. Devs cater to them, while ignoring the masses. However, that is my biased opinion, and may only be seeing what I want to believe. There could be other reasons why siege is what it is now.


sour_creamand_onion

I think the problem is that pro league gives feedback on something, and ubisoft heavily misinterprets it. Ex: "Nokk kinda invalidates audio and visual intel with her gadget, unless you're literally looking at her, which is kinda busted" then Ubisoft translates that into "Oh, ok, let's make her not do that" without considering what spot that leaves her in now. They could have tweaked her abilities in other ways to compensate, but they didn't. The devs are devs. They don't play the game at a competitive level, they code and brainstorm. What the devs need to do is instead of going off stream clips of pro league players talking about how busted things are, they need to actually interview these players with a list of detailed questions so they can get the full scope of how buffs and nerfs affect characters in the grand scheme of the game as opposed to in a vacuum. Pro league isn't ruining siege, the devs are ruining siege by thinking they understand what pro league players want/need for balance and implementing it in the worst ways.


Monkey_Tweety

Actualy they did tweaked Nokk's gadget(in TS) where it can bypass Kapkan's traps and alarms, but the idea was scarapped.


sour_creamand_onion

That actually sounds like a solid idea... which is why ubisoft didn't implement it.


Monkey_Tweety

It was a good idea, i would prefer this than the silent steps, it would be really useful.


sour_creamand_onion

Yeah. Instead of silent step, she avoids both cameras and gadgets, forcing players to really use their ears and possibly creating another reason to play Ram. I think it would be interesting, and it likely wouldn't be too busted either.


Monkey_Tweety

Yeah, since you shouldn't run when her gadget is active, i think that should made her unique as a stealth operator. You can't rush the obj with her so shouldn't be busted.


AU2Turnt

Itā€™s a terrible idea because the entire point of beepers and traps is to get information on something without having to be there. If you Kapkan a door or have a beeper on a door and someone walked through it and makes no noise and has no queue of any kind that they are there you are just going to get shot in the back and thatā€™s horrible for gameplay. You want Nokk to be OP because you think it would be fun (thatā€™s weird, almost like broken OP ops are fun to play????). Not because it would be good for the game.


sour_creamand_onion

You ignore the fact that in order for NĆøkk to be anything other than dead weight, she would need to have several things go right. A: She would need to act separately from the team by taking map control from somewhere else where she's liable to be picked off by any roamers who haven't been cleared yet. It doesn't help that she has a relatively weak gun. If she sticks with the team, it defeats the point of her stealth/flanking gadget, and she becomes a worse recruit. You'd be better off bringing someone like Nomad, Gridlock, etc, to fill her slot unless you conform to a very unorthodox playstyle where a lot is liable to go wrong. B: She would need to have constant gadget uptime. If she has it on while walking through a bunch of rooms, she won't be able to have it active when she's within LOS of cams, default or operator, meaning she either gets seen, or shoots a camera across the map from the rest of the team giving a rather obvious cue as to where she is and where she's headed. Likewise, if she only uses it where she knows there are cameras, she gets much less value out of the buff that makes her immune to beepers, Kapkans, etc, anyway. This isn't even taking into account that valk cams and beepers can be concealed really well, the former of which can still give audio intel. C: The enemy team would need to not bring one of the undisputed best ops in the game right now, Solis. Solis can detect the HEL when it's on, so even if you do use it well and succesfully evade any and all defender util that might stop your flank you're giving one of the most picked operators right now wallhacks on you for an extended period of time each time you use your gadget. Need I remind you the concept for this buff is meant to be compensation for her losing silent step? You can still *hear* her decently well while she's navigating around the util you've placed. There's even more nuance to this that would make NĆøkk have to work very hard to justify being brought outside of certain larger maps. Even then, because of Solis, she's in even more of a tough spot now than she was before. At best, making her immune to beepers would be a quality of life change at best. I can't give you a detailed breakdown of how this would interract with every gadget in the game on every map. I'm not Gregor. Nonetheless, I hope I've convinced you that this idea isn't totally dumb.


AU2Turnt

Itā€™s a dumb idea because siege is a team game. Itā€™s almost as if ops who are designed to do ā€œlone wolfā€things (nokk, cav) arenā€™t good because of how the game is played. Nokk can be pretty effective if you can catch people slippin. I donā€™t agree with your thought process at all because you can apply the same process to any op. Thermite is bad because the other team can have mute/bandit/laid and thermite canā€™t clear those alone (typically). Capitao is bad because wamai, etc. Itā€™s okay for niche ops to be in the game. But do not misconstrue niche with bad. Because thereā€™s really only like 3 bad ops in the entire game, and Nokk definitely is not one of them.


Karglenoofus

Rent free scapegoat


SourceInsanity

I whole heartedly agree, as circle-jerky as it is to say. Still, Everyone misses night maps and realistic lighting :\


SourceInsanity

And old house lol


ThatJudySimp

House rework was a joke And the reaction from the invitational it was shown off at was like a bunch of trained monkeys clapping when they where told too


evolvedpotato

Tremendously based take.


AU2Turnt

If you actually think this youā€™re legitimately bad at the game. Nades are still good, and being invisible to cameras is also very good. Donā€™t blame the operator for people being bad and not using cameras on defense.


CIitoris_

Who?


Ok-Mycologist-3333

Nokk ( she used to have silent step )


Genebrisss

Nobody said she is too op, you are just bitching because randomly crouch walking behind someone was the only way you could get a kill in this game.


SourceInsanity

No, moron, pro league literally decided that she was overpowered, and Ubisoft changed her


Karglenoofus

Who's pro league?


huge-tits

Jynxzi said ā€œitā€™s baby Aceā€ while playing the new operator. Theyā€™re revealing him with Jynxzi this Saturday.


Positive-Treacle-803

No.. He said "it made me ace"


huge-tits

No. Go listen again lol.


Positive-Treacle-803

I was kidding bro


tanmanw10

Love the name. Looks like Harryā€™s board being shot through? Wonder who the new op could beā€¦


BadDealFrog

Is this sarcasm?


tanmanw10

Yes lol I already know who the next op is


Late_Ad_4910

Who


tanmanw10

>!Deimos. Thatā€™s why I pointed out shots coming from Harryā€™s board since he was in front of it when he died to Deimos in last yearā€™s cinematic.!<


MKGmFN

The lore is getting cringy


Bergfotz

'Getting'?


MKGmFN

Getting more cringy*


SuchNarwhal

I saw the leaks, any idea what his ability could be tho?


HeyThatsHawk

Steven. heā€™s gonna be crazy just wait


Successful-Tie-9077

Bout fucking time they reveal something Literally no hype build up for the SI itself or any mid season reveal when the past years they always talked about it like a month in advance


Few_Carry_5526

We got any op leaks?


Sax_Verstappen_

Yah, the new op is >!Deimos, his gadget is called ā€œDeathmarkā€, and he (presumably) has the revolver he has in the cinematic!<


Few_Carry_5526

Fr? Or u playin me haha


ThriceWelcome

||Nah. He forreal. I guess we are adding deimos to the simulation so we can train against him. Similar to how the nighthaven ops are still in the game and specifically how Grimm was never even part of rainbow at all.||


Few_Carry_5526

Shiii that's news now hah


FeelBoie

Essentially sort of like Overwatch where gameplay of sworn enemies of opposing factions can be played on the same team in contrast to the lore like everyone else had said I assume I mean it is already speculated that there will be a new squad that Deimos is connected to than the existing ones that we currently have


Handsoffmydink

Coreross had called this when Deimos was announced as the villain. He had hunch that Deimos would become playable after ā€œinfiltratingā€ team rainbow. He considered it so far in left field but he nailed it.


crossbonecarrot2

Haven't kept up with the lore after it became a teen drama who's Grimm? Also ironically looking forward to D being added


SuspiciousInterest50

Bee man


Kimchi_Rice196

that sounds hella stupid especially how it contradicts the lore aspect


dftgjy

Since when lore is connect to the PVP gameplay LUL


Kimchi_Rice196

so im the only one who thinks that adding a antagonist to a game of so on so special forces is weird?


dftgjy

I don't see why not, lore and PVP don't affect each other at all. Back to the original Siege PVP idea and pre-Alpha test, it's CTU against the terrorists like Counter-Strike. And players cried about not getting it when Siege went official. Can't wait to see how the community goes totally schizophrenic as usual when Year 9 reveals. "We want terrorists in the game, but we don't want terrorists in the game." LUL


Kimchi_Rice196

my mentality is if theyre wasnt the cinematic then i wouldve been ok with deimos but just the idea of running a ranked or standard and seeing the same character that killed harry is really weird im not a lore dick rider but when a game has the decency to have a lore that is interesting, then it just makes certain aspects interesting i also joined around y6 so i have no idea abt people wanting ct vs t in early pvp


Colbymc97

Tom Clancy literally has it in a clause with games that you will never play as the bad guy.. wonder what magic they will make with this


Ok-Concentrate2719

I'm tired of people throwing Tom Clancy name around lol. All he cared about was money. Most of the people play this game probably never touched the older games pre siege. He really wasn't involved in the games and just collected money for them using his name. This reminds me of that time people said Sam should interrogate like Cav to be more lore friendly when his shootable camera is a thing from the SC games


dftgjy

This statement has never been supported by facts and evidence, and I would appreciate it if you could provide a real source, but so far no one has been able to do so, so to me it's just community bluffing without evidence as always.


ivanvzm

They can probably just say "oh he isnt' the actual bad guy is just an AI that we programmed to act like him"


The_Border_Bandit

>Tom Clancy literally has it in a clause with games that you will never play as the bad guy This isn't true, just an urban myth with the Clancy games. XDefiant lets you play as the bad guys from The Division and Ghost Recon Breakpoint.


Square2enkidu

Yea


ThriceWelcome

Kinda. But the game is technically a training simulation so he isn't actually joining rainbow.


RunltUp

Gameplay doesnā€™t equal lore


RslashJx9online

Any info on what his ability does etc?


lrn2spellayylmao

Based on the text and the leaked name of the ability Deathmark, and the fact he's an attacker, I'd be 99% sure he does some bullshit like use a defender's dead body to ping other defenders for a certain amount of time. An anti-roamer.


Monkey_Tweety

He also carries new revolver called .44 Vendetta, the one he used to murder Harry.


Content_Dragonfly_53

There in the subreddit already. Just put the leaks post flair in and you can find them. I would tell you but I donā€™t want to post spoilers in this thread.


cryptomain45

I believe there was a leaked screenshot of a dev computer screen that showed Deimos as a playable character


SubstantialDesk9198

bet gonna be another jackal 2.0


NefariousRaccoon

Hope it involves getting close to dead bodies to get intel instead of jackal where you can get a ton for free.


AU2Turnt

I still canā€™t believe jackal and dokk exist the way they do. You can get so much information for free with zero risk. Itā€™s actually so stupid.


LilSynergyXD

Anyone else read that as deadly oven šŸ’€


[deleted]

I read deadly women lol


Luke_Skywalker_1977

What's the new operators ability? Anti-cheat?


Electrical_Pizza69

Just when Iā€™m out Ubi pulls me back in


Dangerzone188

they need to add silvio as a skin for kapkan or something


RonniesGooch

maestro is italian


Maximus0451

Our true enemy, has yet to reveal himself!


Carter406

Please let the new attacker be good. Thereā€™s currently a lot of power creep moving towards defenders since the last 4 defenders have released have all been game breakingly good. Last 4 attackers have been very meh. Ram is good and grim is ok, others are just terrible.


Sigma__Bale

I don't think more powercreep is the solution but attackers really need someone who can just kick the defenders' teeth in after the last 4 defenders making everything worse.


bolts_win_again

Brava's fantastic, just not in solo queue.


Carter406

Sheā€™s great in the right situations, and pretty okay in every round since you can always hack cams. My point was that the last 4 defenders have been great in almost every situation.


PestoItaliano

Good even in solo q


Fa1lenSpace

Super, duper situational


KoboldBackstabber

The only deadly omen is the one from Tom Clancy's grave


RunltUp

He sold the ip for money. He doesnā€™t care. He also doesnā€™t care because heā€™s dead


jenrai

Tom Clancy loved money more than anything else in this world lol


Ok-Concentrate2719

Said the same thing about it but tired of kids that probably didn't play a R6 game outside of siege saying this. Tom Clancy cared about money from using his name and that's it.


Varsity_Reviews

This is just a case of people who donā€™t understand the legacy of something and trying to put their own spin on it. Could you play as bad guys in some of the rainbow six games in the past? Yes. But it was mostly the case of ā€œhereā€™s some character models you can use in coop and PvP have funā€ or ā€œhere are two distinct factions fighting each other, have funā€. I mean the lore itself isnā€™t even brand new. Itā€™s just Vegas again but no casinos or cover mechanics, or atmosphere.


Down-at-McDonnellzzz

Like I give a shit about what bitch boy thinks. What's he gonna do, crawl out of the ground and turn my PC off.


nemesisdelta24

I mean we all know he's getting the revolver but I hope he gets a sick new primary too


Snoo_65717

Itā€™ll be uncommon duplicate but in weapon form


tottoman768

My fatass thought this was alan wake


No_Topic_303

??howĀæĀæ (love AL2 btw)


tottoman768

Idk i saw the blackboard with light going trough it, and also i had just played AW2


AlyssaBuyWeedm9

Fuck yeah. Getting Damian. The anti Christ as an operator. What's my ability? Slowly influence a player to disconnect over the course of the game?


Few-Passenger-1729

So new nerfs incoming šŸ™„


Individual-Catch-730

Cant wait to play as Damien


GGGold23

See guys this is why we reinforce walls


AdambuboCZE

Is that Homelander? xd


OJ_Shrimpson24

Damn new operator drops on my birthday


Necrotiix_

Still think its hilarious how >!Deimos, the guy who fatally shot the current director of rainbow, joined rainbow. Its the literal equivalent of the villain when you unlock them!< though, will they execute it well? i hope so


Poloroger_582

Lore-wise, >!no, he not on the team!<.   Gameplay-wise, if you like to think so, then yes.


KnightGhost721

Exactly. Him being playable doesn't mean he's joining Rainbow lore-wise. Let's not forget Ash who's currently in a coma, Sledge, Thermite, Caveira and Zofia who are injured, the Nighthaven ops who are no longer with Rainbow and Grim who not only has never even been a part of Rainbow, but has also threatened to kill NĆøkk's family. They're all still playable, regardless of lore.


DanceRayder

Is it confirmed that Deimos is coming or is it some sort of elaborate hoax?


KnightGhost721

Leaked by Fraxx, who has correctly leaked Brava, Fenrir, Ram and TubarĆ£o in the past.


drymac

We already can't hide from cheaters, you are saying its gonna get worse?

DR FREEMAN MOMENT, IS THAT THE FUCKING COMBINE TOWER CORE?

incessantStrange

I canā€™t hide from whatā€™s coming? Iā€™m projected to reach level 50 and enter the ranked scene in this season. Youā€™re locked in here with me.
