Please fix Blackbeard. I've never seen such an overpowered class last so long in a game without being touched by the devs. It's getting ridiculous.

Let Tachanka break shields. Is BBs shield breakable? I get annihilated by him all the time.

E: Let Capitao's Crossbow bolts stick to his shield too, shoot some fuckin fire at his face.

As a Capitao, there are easier ways to teamkill BB. The shield is breakable but it takes enough damage to kill good 10 players before it will break, and seems to not get the headshot damage multiplier.

Put Capitao on defenders then please, trying to think what the alternative is now for defenders. Smoke? maybe? that's harder to pull off though.

For defenders it's literally any C4/shotgun operator, though there can be situations were you can do little but sit and wait.

Coup de Grace
The only change I really want to see to Blackbeard is increasing the visibility of his shield.

I just hate how often I peek someone and fire at them only to see the white hit marker and know I'm going to die. If the shield was more visible (some kind of color tint or glare for example), it would be less frustrating.

His shield should just be a neon pink box for the defenders because you can't hit him through it anyway

Agreed, make it slightly more visible (he's literal neckbeard, just add green Razer (tm) glow to contour or something :razz:) and slightly increase the amount of cracks and other visually interfering poo poo caused incoming shots.

mister happy turtle is a happy turtle
Anyone got a solution to this problem on PC? I keep disconnecting from my games. Maybe after an hour of play I will get a 312 error. When I get back into game after that I get that error about once every 10-15 min. The game was working fine then a couple of weeks ago I start having these disconnect issues. This happens on terrorist hunt, casual and ranked,

I know 312 implies a problem on my end, but nothing has changed on my network or my router since I got the game last year. I have since forwarded the ports and done all the things that Ubisoft suggests (https://support.ubi.com/en-GB/Faqs/000023138/Connectivity-issues-in-Rainbow-6-Siege), but nothing helps. My router isn't logging any events at the time of disconnect and my internet remains connected.

Would be nice to get a solution to this. Its quite a pain!

Is there a sweet spot for making vault holes with Buck's shotty? I can't seem to nail the seamless single-shot vaulting from the patch gif a while ago, and it always takes me like three or four shells. Do I have to make sure there's headroom or something?

that gif is old. the patch after they increased its wall damage reduced the range on the shotgun which made it harder to break walls again.

No it hasn't. It's still just as good as it was at release; a machine pistol with an ACOG scope, almost no spread with a suppressor, and a pinpoint-accurate sniper-tier first shot (and since this is a game with instant kill headshots on every weapon, you only need one shot). Which is completely loving absurd considering the Mac series was deemed fit for combat "only in a phone booth." I don't know how you even begin to complain about the balance issues in this game when that has been a thing from the start and remains such to this day. There has never been any attempt at balance whatsoever; that's why every new defense operator comes out with nitro and a semi-automatic shotgun and at least 2 speed. Ubisoft relies entirely on the extremely low TTD and round-based respawn to keep their game from being unplayable. This is best reflected on the operators that no one picked except as a joke before they were buffed because they were a detriment to the team by robbing them of a better operator.

So I just reinstalled the game recently and I'm kinda confused by the non skin pack dlc. Is it $30 for just the operators or is anything else of note included?

isnt that the season pass? you get the operators and some skins with it, but i don't think all of them? either way, you don't have to buy it to get the operators, you can also buy them with 25k renown each.

The season pass is definitely not worth getting. Don't do it! Apart from a really small amount of skin-buying currency, and some cheap operators, you get to play new operators when they're released 7 days early, and that's it. If you can wait 7 days for a new man then it's basically worthless IIRC.

If you like trading money for convenience then buy it. If you want to support the game, don't buy it. Buy skins. If you want to play the game, buy it on sale and only use Clancy shekels.

It has been adjusted twice, it used to be laser accurate through the entire mag and now has a huge jump in recoil on the 3rd or 4th shot. It's still a really strong weapon and will continue to be even if they remove the ACOG because high rate of fire and tap shooting at the head is a good combination in this game. Depsite that it's still nowhere near as overpowered as Blackbeard.

The season pass is only a "deal" if you want ALL of the operators, all 8 of them, that's all it really gives you. Otherwise you're better off getting just the operators you want with a mix of renown and purchasing them outright.

Wait for the season pass to go on sale for $20 again if you think you might want at least half of the operators, then it's a good deal.

Firstly, I think you might be confusing him with someone else who said "jewbisoft"(and iirc got probated for it?) however many months ago and maybe the latest mention of shekels has set you off unreasonably.

The season pass is a reasonable buy for new players who might not be able to poopsock to get the expensive DLC operators in a timely fashion, especially since we're getting to the end of "Year One"(and hopefully the start of Y2 content) and there are also more things to blow silly amounts of renown on.
