People aren't complaining about people going "gently caress/poo poo" when they get owned, they're complaining about people flooding chat with things like "kill yourself niggerfaggot".

And here I would have thought that the team that is 3/5ths named young black people shot killed by police (in a game about trying not to get killed by the opposing police) would be more racially sensitive and gracious.

lol at the idea of enforcing standards of decency when people can just personally mute players they find too offensive or annoying to ignore

i'd rather have the devs spend their time actually improving the game and adding new content rather than trying to make their PvP virtual murder simulator a safe place

there are gonna be jerks in every multiplayer game... but for every random rear end in a top hat encountered in siege, i come across entire teams full of people trying to communicate constructively and work together even if they at times get frustrated and say naughty cuss words into their microphone

I'm glad they review toxic behavior. It hurts the community which hurts the number of players willing to come back which hurts the likelihood of new players coming in which hurts money.

Weird to me how the racism seems to be a universal experience, I have voice chat muted so maybe I'm missing some there but I've pretty much never experienced it otherwise. People are still assholes but in the "ez pz" sorta way instead.

I have like at least 150 hours logged in this game which might not be a lot to some but that's nearly an entire week added up and I can only remember a select few instances where I've seen people spamming hateful poo poo and TKing in a way that was disruptive to the game.

for a competitive eSp0rtz™ shooter this game is actually quite chill and the people tend to be way more level headed than what I've seen in practically everything else like it - just look at CS:GO

seen way more ggs than gtfos in Siege even if the only operators played were tachanka/recruit and we lost every round. i feel like the playerbase overall has a pretty good sense of humor even when the game seemingly fucks them over for whatever reason.

I love team killing those people. I rarely solo queue and always have at least 2-3 friends with me. People get real upset when you TK them, and explain why when they ask. Then they get killed by the rest of the team so we don't have to worry about bans.

In other news, Ubi announced that they dropped pro league support for XB1 to focus exclusively on PC.
GO4 & the newly added '' Major leagues'' will be hosted for both XB1 and PS4.

PC competition program: Pro League, Challenger League and Go4R6
With a new focus for Year Two, the Pro League will now exclusively be held on PC. It will be bigger than ever with a larger prize pool and more teams invited at Season Finals. We will also be adding an intermediate level for up & coming competitors: the Challenger League. Following the same schedule and format as the Pro League, the Challenger League will be open to 8 teams who proved their worth, reaching this launching pad into the Pro League. They will play and fight for $5,000 every Season per region as well as to secure their position into the next Season’s Pro League.
We will of course be maintaining weekly Go4R6 tournaments.
More information about the new format below.

Xbox One competition program: Major League and Go4R6
The competitive program for Xbox One will now encompass a Major League as well as weekly Go4R6 Tournaments. Following the same format as the Pro League, the Major Leagues will welcome 8 teams per region, fighting over the course of 4 full Seasons! Each Season will have $5,000 of prize pool up for grabs per region.
More information about the new format below.

New PlayStation 4 competition program: Major League and Go4R6
We are also happy to be introducing PlayStation 4 to our competitive program! Just like Xbox One, it will consist of a Major League, as well as weekly Go4R6 Tournaments. We are stoked to see what it will bring to the Rainbow Six competitive scene!

BIG VINCE COMIN FOR YOU
I'm glad to see ubi paying attention to the esports aspect of siege. Too many publishers try to lean super hard in to the esports aspect of games right off the bat, but Siege has been handled very smoothly where it could have been a disaster and super forced.

It helps that it has a pretty solid presentation that does a good job communication the tactical aspect. The dollhouse spectator view is really cool, the games are well broadcasted/commentated, and its overall a very watchable esport.


Edit - Also my suggestion for a cool way to incrementally expand on older content: begin to revamp optics so that each group has some unique optics, similar to the Spetznaz.
