No, it is in objectively a worse spot than since White Noise
Every siege thread
did they really abandon the tactical aesthetic and added this fortnite looking ass shit? man fuck this game
Last 2 operators have both been tacticool
>a comparatively normal looking operator
I'm shocked actually
The bee man is also very tacticool. I wish he didn't suck balls to play.
ok that looks pretty good, might reinstall
this is some stupid fucking sci-fi shit though.
>NOOOOOOO SHE CAN SEE GADGETS THROUGH WALLS MY IMMERSION
Spergs will never be pleased until every operator is just using viet cong bamboo traps
im talking about the appearance of the operator you dimwitted gay. looks like a titanfall pilot
would you prefer if it was a power glove grandpa
Normalize putting masks on women
Not in the sandmoron way
looks like a fucking kamen rider
why abandon the swat aesthetic?
Probably because there is only so many ways you can make a SWAT guy in a helmet that tactical 4chanfags will jerk over
>wanting the grounded tactical aesthetic means you're a 4chanfag
You should genuinely have a nice day.
Lets just say all my most racist friends have ready or not installed
I don't get it, they are nearly all still wearing tactical gear?
Is the complaint here suppose to be
>NOOOOOOO WHY ARENT THEY ALL WEARING GENERIC MASKS
you are actually fucking retarded
I want to fuck Thorn, Azami, and Aruni
Yes. It's still very fun.
Yeah they fixed up its mechanics do its a lot slower and more methodical, and I can't remember what the last gamebreaking bug was
The impression I've gotten from the last couple updates is that since siege is slowly dying they just gave back the creative control to the original devs and they are back to trying to make siege slower and more autistic
Operators were slowed down
Jumpout timers were gutted
Lean/crouch spam is non existent
Attachments are more balanced so silencers are an appealing option, making intel gathering way more important
And now they reworked reloads so you can't just magically stop your reload mid animation and have to commit with only 1 in the chamber
>Back to the original devs
That why this guy popped up, called Harry a fucking idiot for turning R6 into that Olympic shit then gunned him down?
It's entirely possible
It's all just schizo theories but the direction siege is moving in right now at least on the surface points to that
Why did they copy Ghost Recon Breakpoint 1:1 with this dude?
pretty sure it's actually him. For some reason ubisoft wants all the tom clancy games to share the same universe that's why there's siege operators making cameos in wildlands
Did they ever fixed the spray recoil? I quit Siege when the meta devolved into Ash/Smoke strafing and prefiring around corners with fast SMGs and perfect accuracy.
Horizontal recoil for SMGs and LMGs was amped up a bunch so there isn't really a consistent way to dampen it
but the compensator was recently buffed so I don't know how that changes things
My main complaint was that there was no aim penalty while moving, which led to that prefire non-sense. Makes the game play like COD a bit too much for me. I don't like CSGO much, but I prefer how at least there you can just swing around corners with a high fire rate weapon and have a good chance of getting a headshot.
Yeah I don't think that's ever getting removed
reinstalled the other week and uninstalled after a couple of matches
game has a great atmosphere but there is just too much downtime and waiting for shit to happen
Internet ruined your brain
i really like hell let loose, tho
not much happens there either but you get to do more than just sit in a room and wait for attackers or look for defenders
>not much happens there either but you get to do more than just sit in a room and wait for attackers or look for defenders
As a defender your pace of engagement is entirely dependant on you, there are crackheads that will consistently try to jump out of bank because their ADHD won't let them play site
I think you could argue the ban phase formalities are boring and take too long, but the gameplay is rarely just "waiting", even when you're dead
Haven't played in years. There's a point where a game has gotten too many updates and it loses its identity, and Siege passed it a while back. They should've stopped a few years ago and just made a Siege 2 instead.
Same. I remember years ago when they announced that their goal was to add 100 operators, the game's fate was ultimately destined to be pure shit. There is no way you can add that many operators with "unique" abilities without everything turning into a complete clusterfuck. Balance issues and redundancies will be everywhere. They should have stopped around the Japanese operators or so.
Or in a perfect world make a proper sequel to ravenshield with destructible environments. Now that would have been something special
>There is no way you can add that many operators with "unique" abilities without everything turning into a complete clusterfuck. Balance issues and redundancies will be everywhere
You can just look at the most recent operator usage graphs and notice the balance is surprisingly good
I dunno about redundancies but year 1 operators like ash, sledge, jager and bandit still get played a lot so it's not like there is a persistent powercreep making old operators redundant
Probably not
As far as I'm concerned, the game died with /r6g/
R6g was 99% seethe central and 1% futa ash pics
But it was MY seethe general
Also /r6g/ died around the same time the game went from shit to irredeemable shit.
Maybe siege2 will be good, no amount of updates will fix siege unless they pull a destiny 2 and remove shit.
siege died the first update after operation health. sci-fi ops, ela, and that other asian gay ruined the game 100%, followed up with lion's uav and that korean cunt doing the phone spam shit. Awful mechanics.
Pretty sure the killing blow to /r6g/ was the announcement of operation health since we were hyped for polish ops, only for health to fucking can them.
same shit really, that update fucked a lot of the game up, and everything else after just killed it outright
>I haven't played in 6 years but here's my hot take on what the game is now
I like entering these threads and seeing boomers who clearly haven't played in ages regurgitate the same buzzwords they were seething about half a decade ago like they are still in any capacity relevant
Imagine seething about Lion
In 2023
>shit game mechanic kills game
>gets changed years after people leave
>s-seething
cope, game is shit. All it takes is 1 bad patch/update to completely purge a game.
You're still shaking over an operator that has been bottom of the barrel for years
Does he keep you up at night?
>one operator
there was tons of bad decisions, faking ignorance doesn't do shit.
how can i when i haven't had it installed since the ela update? if anything, it's more than likely still dogshit but just in other avenues. I heard tons of ops lost frags as well, making attacking boring gay shit.
>i dont know why its shit
>but it just is ok!?
>dickriding ubisofts bad decisions
lol
lmao
>ummmm you actually use your current experience to gauge the quality of something?
>dickrider much???
I accept your concession
Ubisoft is still a dogshit studio but that doesn't mean they can't accidentally trip into success
>game is dying and bleeding players non-stop
>success
Go play fortnite I hear its real popular
>hurrr go play x
cope, siege is trash now, it's a shame but it's a fact.
Explain why current siege is shit without having a meltie over women or realism
It's a waiting room simulator. Waiting for matchmaking, waiting for ops/bans, waiting for spawn selection, waiting for prep phase, waiting for anything to happen, waiting for post-match fashion show emote cringe, etc.
I prefer to game when I'm gaming.
Its ok they added a deathmatch mode for zoomzooms
if you spend your round waiting in a corner for attackers to come to you you're playing the game wrong tbh
Crackdown on censorship killed the bants and everyone stopped talking in fear of getting banned. Someone better post the edit of pic related.
And don't even (you) me with that strawman of "Duuurrr you just wanted to say moron didn't you????"
It's hard to not resort to that when half the
>say word
>money stolen
threads are about some underage autist saying moron over and over
>say 'the coon'
>get banned
Remember that shit? Y'know, where you literally couldn't type the name of Cartmans superhero persona? Two games from the same fucking publishers? How about the name of a skin in spanish, hielo Black?
Anyone with half a brain could tell they were going way too fucking far.
You're a legend, thank you.
>no I meant cartmans superhero persona I swear!
Nobody in the history of the internet has ever bought that shit man
>mistype frag and type fag instead
>get banned to toxicity
Or maybe, JUST MAYBE... hear me out.
They should just censor words with asterisks instead of straight up dishing out bans?
And they could also add an option to mute individual players! And a report function for when they are legit 'toxic'! Maybe even an option to disable all chats for the user?
You know, like the same shit all multiplayer games had before normies got into vidya?
Stop being disingenuous. You look like a twat.
Don't pretend that shit instantly bans you for life the moment you type fag, it doesn't even mute you the first couple times
How many times have you mistyped frag in your life
Address my points. Why don't they add those features instead of outright banning people which killed the social aspects of the game?
They don't outright ban people, dishonest-kun
I'm not even sure they ban you anymore
If they don't ban you any more then I imagine there's still some sort of chat censorship no? I stopped playing this shit a couple of months after they pulled this crap.
Also, still haven't given me a reason why they couldn't just add the features I recommended.
>no you can't even heckin mute me automatically for being an annoying moron
stop coping
Still haven't addressed it
Also lmao, I completely forgot about pic related
Why are videogames always about censorship autism with you morons
Do you spend all day trying to bait children into saying coon?
>pic
kek i remember doing this 5 years ago and actually getting someone banned
>be brit'ish
>tell friends I'm going for a smoke
>banned
>They should just censor words with asterisks instead of straight up dishing out bans?
They don't straight up dish out bans, and nobody wants to see your retarded message
>And they could also add an option to mute individual players! And a report function for when they are legit 'toxic'! Maybe even an option to disable all chats for the user?
The fact all these options exist and you're suggesting them as if they are a really high IQ ideas and not implemented already really says everything about what your actual concern is
>and nobody wants to see your retarded message
Then use the option to disable chat
>The fact all these options exist
It has been years since I last played. Did they exist when they first started dishing out auto bans? If so, why add auto bans to begin with?
I was going to type out a whole paragraph of how shit just takes more power away from people, much like how community servers are a thing of the past but I just don't care anymore arguing about this shit with some random who is keen to suck corpo cock.
I gave my answer on why I think current siege is shit. Take it or leave it
>they should put in all these features
>these features have existed for a while
>WELL ITS ABOUT THE BIGGER PICTURE BUCKO
lol
Before you depart to complain about this autistic shit in another thread, would you mind telling us what "your" report function would do if someone was reported for being toxic?
>to complain about this autistic shit in another thread
I ain't doing this shit again.
>would you mind telling us what "your" report function would do if someone was reported for being toxic?
Sure. If someone feels like someone else is being toxic, they hit the report and give a reason (eg trolling, feeding, being an unlikeable cunt in chat etc). After a certain amount of reports the person will be banned for a period of time. After that period of time, if the person accumulates more reports, ban him for even longer and longer if he keeps going. I'm not autistic enough to come up with how many reports should build before action happens or length of bans, I don't care enough to think on it.
Give the means to ban people to the people. If the people find a certain individual repulsive enough, he will be dealt with. This way a small minority won't be able to dictate who says what.
Now I'm fucking off. Have fun in this shithole
>I'd make the toxic report button work in exactly the way it works
that's crazy
I've tried to pick it back up multiple times, last time was when they added tdm. Maybe I'm blinded by nostalgia and what I imagined the game would become, but the game just isn't fun.
Also doesn't help that anytime I hear about siege now, even from active players, is that the game sucks.
Every time I enter one of these threads it's people who play the game saying it's mechanically the best its been while people who play complain about trannies and morons
>/r6g/ dead
>/fhg/ dead
I miss them so much bro
Whether a game has a general on this site or not is a pretty good indicator of the games' health.
The game died when they ended teamkilling
Teamkilling still exists
You just can't intentionally grief every match like a 13 year old
>complaining that you get penalties for griefing
lol
>the game got better when they ended teamkilling
FTFY. People that TK are subhuman.
It's not like you can't accidentally shoot your teammates or blow them up with a retarded C4
But if you do it repeatedly and don't get forgiven by your teammates you get flagged as a shitter and enable reverse friendly fire
If you play it with friends its a lot of fun, theres some really dumb and fun stuff you can do in a 5 stack
It's not a game you can take super seriously
I'll probably play it when they implement the shield changes
Looks more tactical than the hipfire RNG simulator it used to be
didn't they add a chud operator recently? that's a no from me.
Played it last autumn, have played it before that on and off from year one season 3. It was okay, just like everything else you play with your friends. I just don't like the new gadgets, a little too futuristic for my taste.
this was boring
I think even ubisoft is pretending it didn't even happen
It's failure might be half the reason they went back to trying to make R6 tacticool
Everything other the writing and art design is great.
If all you care about is good gameplay siege is one of the best FPS on the market.
I disagree entirely. It is much too focused on bullshit kills through millions of possible tiny angles and holes that you all have to know about. 3 speed operators will always be OP because of the instant headshots and because of their lighter footsteps. The game has nice ideas but I don't like how it plays, and I have hundreds of hours in it.
3 speeds and bullet holes were nerfed ages ago.
>It is much too focused on bullshit kills through millions of possible tiny angles and holes that you all have to know about.
bullethole angles have been removed a couple years ago
Kills are still about map knowledge but kills that one sided haven't been a thing in a while
Didnt they turn it into free to play? Or it was something else. It does look like ftp with skins and packs
I think the starter edition was given away for free sometime ago, and it gets discounted often
They will probably make it f2p when it starts dying for real
This game is the perfect example of why it isn't f2p games that are shit, but all games as a service. It's much more gnomish than many f2p games I played.
It's pretty decent now
With how many packs you get from the ranked and battle pass rewards and with the seasonal operator discounts it doesn't that much effort to get the operators you want
Supposedly in one of the later seasons they're letting new players unlock whatever operators they want of a specific """"role"""" after doing the new tutorials
>is it worth coming back to?
