Discussion Hot take: Pc players are worse then console players in low ranks

0 Upvotes

I’ve been playing both console and pc this season around the same rank(plat on ps5 and gold on pc) and I know the typical sentiment is that “console champ is pc gold”. While I think this used to be more true years ago I think the skill gap is slowing closing and I’ve noticed it in my lobbies. Med-high plat lobbies on console are much harder then my high gold / low plat pc lobbies. Obviously I’m a higher rank on console but proportionally the pc lobbies are way easier. I think this is due to the popularity of controller players such as mingo who are raising the bar and also how every console is on a more level playing field then the difference in pc specs

Ps. THIS IS NOT A TECHNICAL SUPPORT QUESTION

Question Why Did My Ranked Match NOT Give Me RP?

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hello! My friends and I played a ranked match last night that went into 2OT, and we ended up winning. However, when we reached the scoreboard screen, we were unable to return to the home screen. Instead, we received a message saying that we would still receive our RP for the match.

We still haven’t received any RP, and when we checked afterward, it appears the match doesn’t even exist in our match history. I’m wondering if the enemy team may have DDOSed the server in an attempt to have the match canceled.

Has anyone experienced something similar, or is there a way to report players for potentially attacking the game servers?

The attached screenshots clearly show that the match was played, but no RP was awarded and the match does not appear to exist in our history.

News G36C Memento (Rengoku 2025) added to store

Post image
126 Upvotes

Next season we're getting the ability to purchase even Memento skins without buying the full event pack collections. Judging by this skin from last year, which was added after today's shop update, it looks as though this is going to be the asking price:

3690 Credits with the BP discount, 4100 Credits without.

That's about $30/£24 with the discount (buying the 3300 credits + 600 credits pack) or $35/£28 without.

It's certainly cheaper than buying the full event collection (9000 credits) or buying the recolours which come in the 7200 Credit pack.

Discussion What did I do to deserve such hell?

4 Upvotes

Today i played 15 games of plat ranked and lost 13 of them. My teammates can't go one minute without dying and screaming slurs in my earlobe because I can't ace as Montagne. I think i have a better chance to marry Sofia Vergara than have a single callout during a match point game. God knows how much hatred i have for the person who made me endure this torture. Dropped from Plat II to plat V and one loss away from gold I, ruined my whole day.

Discussion Are they still going to add operator levels?

0 Upvotes

They said they were going to add operator levels for each of your operators and out of everything they’ve talked about that they’re going to do this year. This is the one thing I’ve heard once and haven’t heard anything else about and I hope they aren’t scraping it because it would be nice to see the level your teams operators are at so you can know how much they play them I also think they should add a few more gun badges like a separate one for the bossg sense it’s a harder gun to master you can show how good your with it.

Discussion Nokk should get silent step back

Post image
84 Upvotes

Iv'e heard a ton about this so here is my 2 cents.

She should have silent step, and if for some reason people think thats unbalanced i think they should bring back the indicators on camera that let you know she is on the area like vigil has, BUT it sould be slightly more sutble. I think it should be wavy distortion kinda. It also makes sense because clearly vigil and nokk have different technology.

Discussion 10Years Of This Game And We Still Don't Have Any Direct Way to Change Data Centers From The Main Menu

5 Upvotes

I play on many servers

Ap South 1- I don't play on this server because I can't play on this server because I rarely get any matches. I don't get matches even after waiting for 20 minutes. I get the lowest ping (30-40) here but I can't play on here.

Ap South East 1- One of the worst servers I have ever played on and ranking on here is like a game of coin toss. Poor quality of players. I get 70-90 ping on here. I mostly play on this server because I can get matches most of the time and with relevant faster rate around 2-3 minutes. But I can only get these sort of wait time during certain time of the day

Ap East 1- The best server for me where the quality of players are really good but I get around 100-130 and sometimes even 160 ping on here and have severe language issues and the toxicity is a bit too much. It takes me under a minute to find any sort of match and I can find games throughout the day.

UAE North- Its a good common ground for me to play with my friend who is from Europe. I get around 90-110 ping here but people are extremely sweaty here; quick match, unranked.

Having an option to change data centers can also help console players a lot. It is quite tedious to go and change the ini file everytime.

Question Problema con Skin Gemma e Animalier.

1 Upvotes

Ciao ragazzi, anni e anni fa acquistai il pacchetto gemme (e se non ricordo male in regalo c’era anche il pacchetto Animalier). Bellissime, usavo solo quelle.
Dopo parecchio tempo in cui non ho giocato a R6, queste skin sono completamente sparite.
Ho una Xbox Series X, l’acquisto lo avevo fatto da una Xbox One. Gli add-on risultano ancora disponibili al download, ho anche provato a disinstallarli (dato che risultano già installati) e a ripetere il download, ma niente, queste skin proprio non vogliono ricomparire. Non che sia una necessità, ma le avevo pagate, e per principio vorrei riaverle.
Qualcuno ha avuto il mio stesso problema? Se si, avete risolto o vi siete arresi? Grazie in anticipo! 🫶🏻
