Team up with //IceOrb, he already wanted to spearhead a project that revolves around collecting names of people that hurt your feelings by hurting potential feelings of other people that aren't you.

No, but you can use https://www.r6db.com/ to check their previous player names if they are one of those folks that like to use multiple lovely names a night to get a rise outta people.

Just report in game and move on or if you want to take it a step further you can send a report to Battleye.

You're never going to get that satisfaction of seeing the ban dealt anyway so there is no sense in getting burnt up by it.

Like Hard has said multiple times in the thread(s), just report em and trust in the system.

Looking for a competitive FPS with short match lengths about 15-20 min? Is Siege a good game for this or is it like CSGO with the average ranked match being around an hour?

Casual can only last 20/25 (round time and round time plus op select/drones) minutes unless you get a draw, ranked can last longer.

About how long is ranked? 30-40?

15-20 is about the average. Matches require 3-5 rounds minimum for completion, with a potential of 9 rounds, depending if it's casual or ranked. Each round is 4 minutes in casual, 3 in ranked. It all depends if one team is dominating or if teams are trading wins back and forth.

I've had ranked games take longer than 15-20 minutes. I'd say a safe bet is around 30 minutes, taking into account the loading times, operator select, drone phase and round times. But if teams are getting wins each and it bounces back and forth, they can last longer.

Casual lasts as long as you want, as you can leave and requeue any time AFAIK with no penalties.

To kinda summarize what others are awkwardly saying, most matches are 15-20 minutes. However some rare matches will be a draw for a long time and end up in double overtime, which ends up to 30 or a bit more.

Average matches are definitely around 20 minutes in ranked and not around an hour. Its pretty fast compared to CSGO, there's far fewer rounds.

I have three regrets
The first is to be born in Joseon.
It won't go an hour. The very longest ranked games where it goes full overtime and a full 9 rounds are probably like 40 minutes. Half an hour for ranked, 20 minutes for casual is more standard I'd say.

Sweaty isn't a new term but it's probably being brought back. When you're a fat loser nerd exerting yourself just by playing a video game, you get sweaty. You're a sweaty tryhard.

Sports games tie into it at least slightly as well. When speed, stamina and/or physique were 'OP' in games like FIFA, players whose strong suits were any or all of those three traits were called sweaty. Choosing or building a squad that consists primarily of that kind of player was considered tryhard, hence the correlation.

It would be cool if when there was 1 minute left in the round the defenders were allowed to go outside. You're already pretty susceptible to that sort of aggressive peek on a lot of spots and it's a cool and fun mechanic.

Goons and Discord are always weird. There's like 100 users but barely any regularly play.

Your best bet is to probably hop on the R6 Reddit Discord and try and find normal people to play with. There's a tonne of kids, mic breathers and general weirdos, but there's a few chill people. Just don't be afraid to tell someone to leave if they join your room and you don't like the sound of them.

I've never had a problem finding people to play with using the discord in the OP. I play at bizarre nightshift hours too and there are usually one of two goons still blasting scrubs.

though the reddit discord is actually useful if you're looking for a quick 5man ranked group

I've had bad experience with Reddit discords (meme lords) that I've kind of just stopped using them. But assuming siege is better because the community seems to be better than other games.

We have games almost every night. What time are you getting on? Sometimes if it's empty just idle in one of the R6 chat rooms. More often than not it'll fill up within 30 minutes. Also lots of people are playing PU: Battlegrounds right now. Once the hype dies down it should be filled up more often.

Yeah, I've definitely been in a PUBG hole as of late. Once they drop some new operators I'll be back in.

I was on around noon PST. I'm assuming most people were at work, but just wanted to make sure it's not dead. I'll try again at later times.
