I had rook, but hadn't really used him, so I'll go down that path. And agree on sledge/thermite as well, they see pretty regular use, just was trying out ash as a recent unlock as well.

Finally setup discord and jumped on, also added my u/n to the googledoc. Thanks for letting me play goons. I'm not always this terrible. Usually I get a few kills. Meh. I'll get better with time.

Everyone will have games where they are dead weight or don't really get a chance to contribute, but to regularly get a few kills per match is a good result, if you're killing as often as you're killed, or otherwise contributing to your team getting more kills, you're on the right track.

I played seige a long long time ago, and it didn't really seem that great. But it seems like this game has gone the way of the pheonix and slowly risen from the grave. What changed?

Game was always good, people are just slowly realizing this.

Sticking to my initial year 2 map predictions, still need to come up with a prediction for Poland now that Israel is out though.

The game was fairly great when it first came out, just janky since Ubisoft decided to ignore decades of technological advances and user experience research. They have been slowly reclaiming the relics of the ancients over the past years, so we might eventually reach usability parity with iTunes for Windows circa 2007.

What about Polish Air Force Tu-154 crash, and a new game mode where Polish CTUs need to intercept Russian CTUs tampering with the evidence.

Every player wants an actual skycraper map that takes advantage of repelling and extended stairwell spirals.

But I would also like to see a map with multiple small buildings and alleyways like a street market or whatever in the theme of the location it's in. Maybe something like PayDay2 maps that would allow for roaming between storefronts on both sides yet still feel contained and focused. Also lots of expensive debris to kick up when having a shootout.

Yeah, the random hitching even on good pcs is annoying as hell. Got 16 gigs of RAM and an I7 and a 1070 yet at least once a match it'll hitch for half a second.

Update on mic working in everything but Siege - My default communications device was set to something not plugged in (but how? :iiam: ). Other games and voice chat software used my default device instead. The issue is now way fixed.

Contact support. If you had Y1 season pass it should even be 1200 R6bucks.

speaking of Seasonpass Y1,

Was there anything else in the first season pass that you can no longer get like weapon skins? Still miffed that I missed out on the R6 coins and stuff from the Y1 pass.

Also, please add a "Report rear end in a top hat" button for these people that are just skirting the auto kick with team kills and team damage or destroying devices. Or just being real dicks in text/voice chat.

I don't want to completely lock out text/voice chat just because of one or two assholes. But I would like to see them get punished for typing or yelling "N-----S" in chat.
