EDIT #3 - Monday, September 13 @ 4:35pm ET:
Console performance continues to hold steady.
We have identified a fix which addresses the issue of joining Squads on console, and have deployed it on Xbox and PlayStation.
We will closely monitor its performance and keep you informed of any further updates.
EDIT #2 - Monday, September 13 @ 12:30pm ET:
This morning, we observed an issue affecting matchmaking on console and have since deployed a fix for this.
Console performance has returned to normal, but this temporary fix has caused an issue with joining Squads.
We are aware of this and working on a permanent fix.
EDIT - Sunday, September 12 @ 9:00pm ET:
We're happy to report that the issues affecting matchmaking on PC have been successfully resolved.
As some of you have reported, there was an emerging issue preventing console players from joining Squads. We have addressed this and things should be returning to normal.
We'll continue to closely monitor the game's performance to ensure these fixes hold. Over the next week, we will implement more robust long-term measures to prevent this from happening again.
Once again, thank you for standing by as we stamp out these issues!

Hey r/Rainbow6,
Thanks for bearing with us! We're aware of two separate issues, one impacting matchmaking on PC and one impacting online infrastructure on Xbox, and the team is actively working to fix both.
As soon as we have solid details to share, we'll update you here and through the Rainbow6Game Twitter account.
All that to say, we're on it!
