Basically the previous variation had acceleration, meaning you reach your full speed after being a second or so on the maximum with your analog stick.

Now it will be more linear, which means you will reach that speed instantly if you push hard right or left, basically it's more linear, like with mouse movement, which depends on how much it traveled.

That's at least how I understand it from the post and others.

Basically, yes. It will be an option, so you can keep the classic curve if you would prefer!

Thanks for clearing that up, and any chance we could please get some information or comment on the intentional server crashes/DDoS/Lag Switching? That seems to be another big topic at the moment.

It is a big topic here as well, and we are well aware of the impact it is having. We don't have anything more than that to share.

I really don't understand why it's so hard to fix these exploits. I'm no Dev and really shouldn't have a opinion on it but for a multi million dollar company there's no excuse anymore. I know there's rumors where some Siege Devs reportedly temporarily left the team to help with Breakpoint and Quarantine and if that's true then I have no idea why they would cripple one of their top profitable games by making Devs leave and let the game go to crap.

That isn't true.

The reason it is a complicated is because it is tied to one of our most base level systems that touches on nearly everything. It also isn't a situation where throwing more devs on it fixes it faster, because only so many people can work on it at once.

Yes. I'm not in the office so I'm not sure on the timing, but we are planning to prevent her from being selectable again.

Thanks a lot for the quick feedback!

As I've some years of intense IT background as well i do know that sometims fixes can take some time and I'm sure you're doing your best to get things up and running again :) But Imo taking some more time to get things fixed would be better than temporary solutions, which could probably bring some more unwanted side effects. But thats just my opinion and the way I would solve problems like these. And for sure, it's not the easiest decision between taking some loadouts(claymores, shields, etc.) out of the game for probably months and making a temporary fix, which allows you to use these gadgets again instantly.

Regarding casual matchmaking: More often than sometimes it feels like matchmaking/ranks in casual differs way too much between attackers and defenders, means we're getting stomped by much stronger opponents. For sure there's enough space for getting better on my side, i know ;) but in some matches I really do feel like can...

Interesting point regarding casual matchmaking! We actually use the exact same system for ranked and casual. Casual has a MMR just like ranked, but it isn't displayed. It is likely that people play them differently, so it is less accurate than their Ranked rank.

Performance restrictions. Higher FOV requires more processing power, lowering frame rate.

I'm really looking forward to the new season today, and I'm supporting the devs by buying a season pass every year... but there are some points that roil the start somehow...

- Fixing the Clash/IQ/shield glitches: instead of fixing the root causes of these bugs, why adding the failsafes? I know there's a good intention behind for sure, but from my point of view, time would be better spent on fixing the root causes.

- Dropshotting: Yayyyy its back... I mean, seriously!?

- "Bomb only" in ranked: i don't think its a good move to remove "secure area" and "hostage" from ranked... why not making four separated ranked modes instead(secure, hostage, bomb, and one with all together)? I don't know UBI's internal stats, but I could imagine the majority of the player base is more representive than the pro league one's.

- Matchmaking in casual: Name says it, but it could be better adapted to the own rank/skill.

Nevertheless, I really do like playing R6S...

Hello!

Thanks for giving me an opportunity to clarify on a few things.!

  • The true fix for the exploits is a massive reconfiguration to how we handle one of the most critical components of the game. We are testing it as much as possible before releasing it. This is a temporary solution why we make sure that the true fix doesn't have an hidden nastys. :)

  • Drop shotting will only be back for a short time. Not ideal, but sometimes these things happen . We currently have a fix planned for 2.1 if it tests well!

  • Bomb is our most played and most balanced game mode.

  • Not sure what you're saying about Casual matchmaking. Happy to answer if you could clarify!

I'm very disappointed to see no patch notes about the console aim acceleration change that was announced 2 seasons ago. It was aimed to be released Y4S2 but unfortunately nothing yet..

It would be awesome to get a dev update about it!

edit: its coming this season (probably) can't f wait

We are still working on finalizing and releasing it during season 2, not necessarily when season 2 launches.

I wish something like this was written on the post so people understand that they weren't just randomly selected English streamers or something. The reaction here is pretty ridiculous lol.

On another note, can I ask when this charm event kicks off? There's no date on the post and the FAQ is outdated.

That's a fair point! I'll see that it's included in future posts.

It'll be available a few hours after Operation Phantom Sight is available on all platforms.

I'll take this opportunity to get Zironic's since I got KG & Shroud instead of his last season.. but other than that the new ones are a disappointment. Should be people that the community actually know of like KiX, NarcoNug, Get_Flanked, etc.

Edit: Epi has explained why most of us don't know these guys in a reply, in that case I think the big streamers for other languages deserve it just as much as the big English streamers.

I think it is very important to remember that there are huge communities of players outside of the English community. Matimi0 is the only English streamer, but these others are just as big of a deal in their respective communities.

The discounts vary per region. As Twitter is a global channel and region targeting isn't possible, we wanted to ensure we covered all of our bases.

Is it a worry that incentivising people to stay a high rank might end up in more smurfing?

Not really. The "incentive" in extremely minor. They just have slightly higher MMR during their placement matches the following season.

We are looking at what we can do to detect and manage smurfs though, and have a cell that is thinking on it.

You are correct.

We are crunching everything towards 2500.

We are plan to have more changes with the Y4S2.3 update.

Edit: Since Epi has informed us she was OP with an AR I retract my statement.

She had one early on in development.

It was way too strong.
