Rainbow Six: Siege has brought so much to the table when it comes to tactical shooters that it might very well dethrone (someday!?)
Gaming Boulevard got their hands on Rainbow Six Siege: Shifting Tides and explains why it's such a big improvement.
While the majority of video games are marketed to the audiences in the west, the market in Asia is big (and Asia isn’t only Japan), and it even reaches massive status when you factor in China. Ubisoft has announced a list of changes it’s making to Rainbow Six Siege’s aesthetics since it plans to expand to Asian territories.
I think Ubisoft is being dumb tbh. One mans opinion but the removal of blood etc is just really odd for a mature shooting game with already M Rating
Taking blood out means I'm done with this game. Sorry Ubisoft but that is how it is. I liked Rainbow Six for what it is, not what for what the Asian market will allow. Big mistake.
dude it´s soo stupid ,i loved the blood splaters and the way the looked on walls and the floor,it maked the game so much cooler,f#&k this over-political correct trend bullsh#$t,i grew up with Duke Nukem and Doom,it´s just freaking pixels .
This time the community is more in the right, ubisoft is changing aspects of the game globally to cater to a segment of the market, it's basically taking a dump on anyone who already purchased. And from my understanding the players will be split from the global community regardless so they didn't have to do this at all they could have just did it for those playing in that region .. ionno it's a big mess, I do think the lack of blood is going to be goofy as hell lol shooting someone in the head is perfectly fine but blood being shown is a no-no lol
they might as well just have rainbows come out when you kill someone lol
I've never seen a game get away with so much.
The season system was already a nasty way of knobbing fans over, but essentially turning the game into a mobile game to appease Chinese companies? Madness.
Forget reason. The community is in an uproar. That makes me more ruckused than the ruckus than the RDR2 2nd CD fiasco earlier this week, and even more than the COD community being unhappy about BO4 weapon variants.
All these things to be upset about, all this week. 2 of them from mp1st.com.
Maybe N4G mods can make a new rule that articles about some people in a community somewhere being upset isn't really a story. I mean, if these journalists and what they do aren't news, then I don't see how random forum goers opinions are news. We already talk about this stuff, and it just causes stupid discussion on the topic at hand. If the writers want to discuss the topic, at least bring their own take on the subject through an opinion piece.
As much as journalists hate these pieces, uproar from fans shows the lack of care being shown by companies and where gaming is in 2018.
This is the objectivist era.
@mogp
It's just something from an article earlier this week. This is the third story about how fans in some community are upset about something, based on nothing more than some normal internet post being upset about something.
@senior
In this case, I think there is a better story here than what the fans think. Rather, instead of focusing on what the fans are upset about, report the story itself, which is the visual changes to the game. Within that story, you cite how it's upset fans.
This is what actual journalism does, instead of making hit pieces which focus on people being upset. Inform. Don't breed a bandwagon culture by making it seem like this is something that would upset everyone.

Not good. I won't be supporting game companies that cater to communist regimes.
SJWs are actually scared of being ruined/killed by corrupt politicians that promote some of the world's nastiest crimes such as racism, sexism etc.
In fact, the terms was coined in order to describe the superheroes of DC comics.
Yeah, a lot of themngo overboard, and they can't take a joke, but it comes from fear and we should all sympathise with that just a little bit.
Now Now....control your furor. All this ballyhoo and commotion is really no reason to be disturbed over it.
Downroar. It's good for the soul.
Ubisoft has been silent on the request from players since the game’s release.
I think its fine. I have 700 hours on PC and only play ranked, only been kicked out of maybe 3 games due to accidental team killings. And then it's a 15 minute ban.
Issue is, how do you fix it? Remove team killing? That would not work because watching your shots helps add to the tension and strategy of the game.
Also by removing the ban then you run in to the issue of team killers running rampant and just forcing everyone down to Copper 4.
Edit: forgot they changed the ban system. As one not gotten a TK. But those ban timers reset after a while so you shouldn't see more then 30 minutes ever, if you even see thst.
There should be some obvious team killing punishment. If you're still setting up on defense it should auto ban. If you haven't moved beyond 20 meters of spawning as offense, auto ban.
Try to shoot a camera at spawn, instaban.
Try to shoot a drone, or open a wall up, instaban.
The TKing aspect on PC is not that bad, very rarely do I run into problems, that being said from what I hear the console versions have a rampant issue with it.
How about realy punishing those who teamkill. It doesnt happen to often but very anoying when u get in a game With those asshats that kils u right in the begining of a round. Im sure those fuckers does this often and should realy be punished or banned!
A hour or so punishment is nothing. Im sure those guys does it right before they log of and the punishment means nothing then. And if u acidentaly kill someone and they also se it after in the killcam, why WHY do they kill u in the NeXT round?! Nice way to loose a match for the entire team...
On pc i never really had a problem with tkers, but on ps4 i run into them like every other game, whether it be on my team or the enemy team. it's annoying and should really be punished more severely on console
Wishful thinking..
No. Doesn't really matter if the game itself is great or not; the hype just isn't there and very few people actually play it. Its popularity is only going to decrease from now on. Or at the very least, it won't magically grow 10x and suddenly match CSGO's ccu
Still play Siege frequently. Its the only FPS I currently play. Lotta fun to be had, especially if you have a good group of people to communicate with, which oddly enough happens often considering I random most of the time due to my schedule. Definitely glad I bought this game and have no regrets about it.
I have this game and have put 83 hours according to my Steam profile: http://steamcommunity.com/i...
This game? It will never be the next CSGO because it doesn't play like CSGO and the learning curve is too deep for people to easily pick up.
Look, I enjoy the game (83 hours...) and go as far to say that I like it better than CSGO due to mechanics, but the game suffers from many bugs and not so great hitboxes (planned to be fixed) that do ruin the balance and use of certain characters. The thing about CSGO is that that's a game that anyone can pick up and you won't need to worry about mechanics being reworked or characters/weapons being added in so then you have to relearn what you already know. On the other hand, Siege is a game where you need hours and hours to get decent, learning every character, every entry point, what works, what doesn't in every map...many people give up because the learning curve is a lot and then you have a community that pressures you and blames you because of positioning or barricading the wrong walls so they end up team killing you. Yea, team kill punishment is kind of light in Siege as you can get one free team kill and a lot of people do use it to troll or show anger.
CSGO has strong staying power, but Siege, some want to master it, some get too frustrated to find out the correct way to every mechanic and play something else. Though, the addition of "loot boxes" in Siege did dramatically increase that staying power, but the game needs to be more newbie friendly and add more than those tutorials. One component is to add a destructible environment highlighter setting so new players can learn which walls are insertion points or penetrable because it took me a lot of time to learn what kind of walls I can punch holes with a shotgun. A lot of the learning actually came from watching other players carefully than me doing it.
Siege is fun once you get the flow of it, but the thing is with games like these, fun is when you can do good here and there and the only way you can get the flow of things is to pour in hours and hours. That;s because once you die, you have to wait your turn again for a while so it's unlike fighting games that also have a steep learning curve, but you can still have fun playing casually.
I played R6 for awhile, and it almost always just made me want to play CS.
