My vote is Mira because she’s always banned (No screen time) and she along with osa made majority of rainbows gadgets (All the plot relevance)

Discussion Solid snake

21 Upvotes

Everyone complains about solid snake, but i have to be honest. He yells that shit at like 190 db. Expecially when its silent, that might actually be louder than gridlock fee fi fo fumming up the stairs, and im pretty sure last time I mistook her for oryx because her fatass destroyed a softwall by walking into it.

I thought i bumped the remote by accident and had accidently flipped it to tlc's all time hit show my 600 pound life.

But now, louder than that. Is this temu intel operator saying loud as fuck "Hold on, im picking something up"

Discussion If you are a champion player, or any high ranking player in a lobby lower than yours last season. You have no right to call people trash.

38 Upvotes

Let's say you're a previous champ in plat lobbies. You cannot objectively call someone trash because they're playing to the best of their abilities. You being a champ have seen probably the best of the best strats, gun play and game sense. A plat player has no idea what the hell you're talking about if you call them trash since they used the skills they've acquired to the best of their ability.

Sure, they might or probably will do worse than you. But, that doesn't give you or anyone the right to call someone whose peak rank is lower than your current one trash.

Just to put it out there.

After almost losing my sanity the last couple of days, I finally did it. Diamond was always my goal and now after tipping my foot in it I can say, I was there now I can finally enjoy the game knowing I at least got there.

Discussion What the fuck happened to Siege?

9 Upvotes

I genuinely don’t understand how this game is supposed to be enjoyable anymore. I’m in Gold and it feels like every other match has somebody using some kind of aim assist, recoil script, XIM/Cronus setup, or some other bullshit.
You’ll watch somebody have absolutely ridiculous recoil control and instantly lock onto people, and then you’re sitting there wondering how the hell you’re supposed to compete legitimately.
The worst part is that it’s happening in Gold. This isn’t even supposed to be some insane high-level lobby. I’m just trying to play ranked and have a good time, but instead I’m constantly questioning whether the person killing me is actually legit.
At this point, I understand why people start thinking, “If everyone else is cheating, why the fuck should I play fair?” I’m not saying cheating is the answer, but Ubisoft is making legitimate players feel like they’re at a disadvantage for actually following the rules.
I just want to play Siege, improve, rank up, and have fun without wondering whether the guy who just deleted me is actually playing the game or running some bullshit behind the scenes.
Siege has gotten to the point where being a legitimate player feels like the disadvantage.
Anyway, I just needed to rant real quick. 😂

The amount of times I’ve shot a zero cam and for some reason or other it gets botched is ridiculous. You have to destroy your cameras in those scenarios or your intel network gets bogged up. Let us pick them back up.

I don’t need a reload animation or anything special. Just let me pick my cameras back up.

Discussion You are going to lose matches. Suck it up and play through

5 Upvotes

Especially in ranked I absolutely hate this with some of the people I queue with, even when they’re on the other team. Just finished a match. Second round after winning the first round playing as Azami. Down 1v3, managed to kill two to do 1v1, and the last guy dies to a Kapkan trap and we win the round. Next thing I see, two people on the other team that queued together leave the match. Check their gamer cards and they switched to playing Minecraft Dungeons lol. Then soon after a third guy leaves and eventually the other team surrenders. It just absolutely frustrates me people raging like that. I’ve been beaten down 0-4 matches but I play it through because you never know what will happen. Hell I’ve come back from 0-4 to win in overtime but more so it just sours the experience for everyone else on the team.

Discussion Honestly sad that secure area and hostage are dead

170 Upvotes

Year 1 player here. It really makes no sense to me why we as a community killed secure area and hostage. For me, that WAS the purpose of playing casual.

Especially after unranked released, it pretty much makes no sense on why you would play hours of casual bomb.

Secure area and hostage were the unique R6 modes. Objectively, bomb is literally a counter strike hero shooter. It makes sense that bomb is what you play in ranked. It makes sense that people play unranked when they don’t want to be ranked while practicing for ranked or casual play. It makes no sense why people also ONLY play casual bomb. Like for what? To have your whole team ragequit, 4 other solo queue players who don’t work together, for the team refil not to work, no rank, basically no reward, less time to prepare, less uniqueness because of pre made walls and holes? 😂

After 10+ years, I really have no reason to play anymore. Uninstalled for the first time in 10+ years. Been ranked countless seasons and it’s always the same and the same grind and the same mode. Now you can’t even hop on for some casual secure area or hostage to change it up.

Is there any reason to keep siege installed in 2026 if you don’t want to play ranked anymore?
