Ela's tactical capri leggings meant that they used too many polygons modelling her butt, ergo they have to remove whole maps to make up the difference.

They probably have a maximum disk space that they can't go over and didn't account for a season 2 and beyond

I try avoiding the WE VS YOU since i've always considered myself a goon before anything else in this thread but I guess it can't be helped :/

Blaming an entire company of ~10k individuals over a map change seems overkill is all i'm saying.

I'm also curious on how you consider Op Health gently caress you over? It's not completely out yet. You can say how much Ubi is the equivalent of Hitler if you're not happy with the result but in the meantime stop being mad at a videogame man.


Sieges like a love/hate relation where shes batshit insane but the sex is amazing.


There is nothing in OP Health that could not have been done along with whatever season content we missed out on. Most of OP health has been back end stuff, with some minor cosmetic spawn peek map fixes that literally shouldn't take longer than two days for a couple artist to implement, if that. (and for the record I have been in games/film industry for 10+ years so this is not some armchair expert thing.)

You guys have been consistently short changing us on content you promised and now you are actually taking away content. That is never ok. I am pretty sure I am in the top %1 of players in terms of monetary support for this game (I don't even want to mention how much I spent so far, it is embarrassing) but you guys are making it hard to continue doing so. Most of our regulars already stopped playing Siege for lack of content and I am not sure how losing even more content is going to bring them back.

Agreed.

It's one of the few maps that is just one long nearly fully destructible hallway with patches of cover in between.

That's not to say that I can't think of ANY way to improve it (the lighting................) but I think we should still have access to it while whatever revamp is done to it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsK8vDtrFV4

Stuff like this just doesn't happen on other maps, Border being the only one that gets close to having that level of single level destruction.

For all its faults, it really is one of the best designed maps in the game.

I used to really dislike yatch but its grown on me. Just a fun kind of shooty map and each floor offers a different play style. Compared to coastline it's top tier.

Hard, I said however long ago when you brought up the map removal thing that it was a dumb bad idea and I stand by that.

It's a really dumb and bad decision and it would be great if we could get more justification for it, also people are going to be incredibly(rightfully) mad if it's because of something like limitations from consoles being mirrored on PC for the sake of parity when it makes no sense to gimp the objectively superior(and IIRC much more popular?) version of the game.

tbf a lot of Op Health work has been done on a structural level where we shipped ( on release) things that held by a thread. It's for the long run really and this whole thing was bound to happen at some point if ubi wanted Siege to last.

If i'm being perfectly honest here i think Ubi, 1. promised too much and 2. explained too much and while a providing a certain amount visibility and transparency is nice, it still leave room for people to react ,however, after giving our side of the story the rest is not really open to discussion. It's just a summary of what happened. Take it as you want it's just my view on it.

Also since you've been in the industry for 10+ years you're well placed to know that even if a simple level design change that does indeed take 2 days or less is not easy to ship then theres a lot more involved than the actual fix.

Yeah, when the digits hit 4 you take a Hard look at your Siege spending habits. Hell, even I've bought something around $200 worth of the game mainly due to $15 full edition sales to get new people playing.

Remove all the skins and bullshit cosmetics. Remove the acog for everyone. Remove the stupid loot crates. Fix the glitches. Don't forget Poland. Take MP out of beta.

VVV Thanks mate :)


PS: Before anyone takes my shitposting seriously, removing the maps will suck even if I hate favela. I know people who love that horrible map in the same way I love Bartlett. As far as everyone I play with is concerned, we just want the loving bugs fixed. My group has quickly become smaller due to people losing interest and things like operation health and now the removal of the maps isn't making it easy to get them to keep playing. Make them fix the game Hard. Thanks.

they arent even removing them from the game, just making it impossible to play them in normal multiplayer, which is even dumber.

While all of these are astoundingly bad decisions, I think the part that makes me actually angry is the fact that the stated reason is to make it easier for new players to learn the maps. I mean, haha are you for real nigga just play more.

They will rework "some of" the maps they remove, and eventually they will just remove maps entirely and forever, no rework.

How anyone is defending any of this, even sarcastically, is beyond me.
