TOP ISSUES AND COMMUNITY CONCERNS



[h2]TOP ISSUES AND COMMUNITY CONCERNS[/h2]
Updated: 13 December 2019

We will be updating the following list regularly to outline the status of certain issues that are currently pressing for our community. Please note that this list is not exhaustive, and should only be used as a reference to give a general idea of where our focus currently is.



[h3]SOUND PROPAGATION ISSUES[/h3]
Description: During Y4S2, we set out a large batch of fixes to make improvements on our sound propagation system. However, some issues remained due to discrepancies between sound travelling through obstacle (e.g. walls, barricades, windows, reinforcements) versus sound passing through next to these obstacles via another route.

Status: [Target:Y5S1] We are working on a “perfect-fit” solution to tackle the remaining propagation inconsistencies.

[h3]REJOINING RANKED SESSION RESULTS IN A TEMPORARY BAN[/h3]
Description: Players who disconnect from Ranked games run into difficulties re-joining the match.

Status: [Target: During Y5S1] We have been seeing reports for this topic come in shortly after our DDoS reinforcements. We will be fine-tuning our systems to maintain security, while also remedying this.



[h3]DEBRIS STUCK IN WINDOW/DOOR BARRICADES[/h3]
Description: Debris sometimes remains stuck in the barricades on doors and windows, causing players to have different sight lines.

Objective: Provide consistency for all players for barricade destruction.

Status: [Target: Potentially Y5S1] We are currently in the production phase towards our chosen solution. We’re excited to share more info on this with you in the near future.

[h3]BENCHMARKING PERFORMANCE[/h3]
Description: Our current in-game benchmark test is outdated.

Status: We are working toward a new benchmark test that better conveys how Siege performs on different setups.

[h3]CONSISTENCY ON GADGETS DESTROYING PROPS[/h3]
Description: There are inconsistencies in how gadgets interact/destroy props on maps.

Status: [Target: Y5S1] Similar to how we implemented consistency on how props break on projectile trajectory in Y4S4, we are working on a system for deployable gadgets’ interaction with these props.



[h3]OPERATOR BANS[/h3]
Description: We have seen a high ban rate for Blitz, Echo, and Caveira in Ranked.

Status: We recently made some changes to Jackal—an Operator whose ban-rate was fairly high. We are still monitoring feedback around him from the community. For the other Operators who are most affected by Pick/Ban, we are discussing how we want to approach topic of balancing around them.

ELA 'HUK SZTUKI': IDENTITY





“Turn on your phones. Disengage your brains. Live in the moment. Consume.”

EXCERPT FROM A PRINT INTERVIEW, 09-09.

Reporter: What does identity mean to you?

Bosak: All identity is performative. The complication lies in the fact that, as much as you construct your image by what you say, how you dress, and which brands you buy, you’re never truly in control. You’re always subject to a status quo, a set of expectations about how someone who looks like you *must* act.

Reporter: Surely those expectations don’t carry over when we’re talking about art.

Bosak: Art transcends society only when nothing is known about the artist. I don’t want to transcend society. I want to record it.

Reporter: I see. So what do you say to people who claim your work is shallow and narcissistic?

Bosak: I say that if you can’t see yourself in someone else’s reflection you’re not trying hard enough.

Reporter: But, by doing so, aren’t you simply behaving in the way that society expects?

Bosak: (laughs) Aren’t you?


“We define ourselves by symbols, but those symbols can be perverted. Reused. Reworked, reframed, remade. In a word, stolen. Who are you then?”

CAPITÃO 'RESPONSA': SEEING THE PRESENT




“I get it. Everyone’s just doing their best to survive. You shoot at me, though? Then it gets personal.”

Transcript dated 11/11. Edited for clarity.
Vincente: I’ve met people like you before. I got sent to a shrink after I lost my eye. You know what he wanted me to do? Visualization exercises. He wanted me to pretend that I still had both my eyes, to imagine the life I had before and “project it into the future.” You know what I said to him? “Cara, imagining I’ve still got both eyes isn’t going to get me back on the field. Can you help me or not?” He sent me to an occupational therapist and I never saw him again. So don’t ask me about how I’ve “adapted” or “grown”, or dig into my past to uncover the “real” impact of my trauma. I’m sick to death of talking about the first and only thing people notice about me.

Harry: Then let’s talk about something else.

Transcript ends.


“Kids always ask me how I got to be so strong. I tell them it comes from having something worth fighting for. When they grow up, they’ll understand.”

PRE-SEASON DESIGNER'S NOTES Y4S4

PRE-SEASON DESIGNER'S NOTES Y4S4



Find all the latest balancing changes coming with Operation Shifting Tides.[rainbow6.com] Our Dev Team is about to give an insider perspective at what led us to tweak certain abilities, weapons and gadgets.

WEAPON BALANCING

M-12 SMG
  • Increased M-12 SMG damage from 36 to 40
The M-12 is currently one of the lowest damages and slowest firing SMGs in the game. With most players favouring the Luison, there is currently very little reason to select the M-12. Our Devs are looking to give the M-12 a fairer chance during duels.


FO-12 SHOTGUN
  • Decreased damage dealt beyond 10 meters
  • Spread increase and accuracy reduction
Ela’s FO-12 is very strong and frustrating, mostly for console players, but on PC as well. She is targeted by Operator bans by console players and when she is not, her pick rate is very high. This weapon should be more in line with other semi-automatic shotguns. We also want to reduce her ban rate and how frustrating Ela can be.


SASG-12
  • Spread increase and accuracy reduction
The SASG-12 shares many similarities with the FO-12. A spread increase when shooting rapidly as well as an increased recoil will make it a bit less easy to control.


BOSG 12.2
  • #BOSGACOG is here
Adding the ACOG to 707th SMB Operator shotgun was mostly motivated by the low performance of the weapon. Even if part of the community was also looking forward to the addition of the ACOG, it remained a pure balancing decision. This new sight should not affect the overall performance of this weapon.

As usual, we will monitor its performance for Dokkaebi and Vigil and adjust whatever is necessary.


OPERATOR BALANCING

GLAZ
  • Increased Glaz’s scope highlight base intensity
We are giving our Russian sniper a bit more love to help him spot enemies even when the scope is not charged, thus making his scope useful in more situations.

KAID
  • Increased Kaid’s Electroclaw radius from 0.75m to 1.3m
  • Replaced Impact Grenades with Barbed Wire
Kaid’s gadget leaves ample room for creativity. The feedback we gathered indicated that Electroclaws added variety to many situations but needed an extra edge.

A wider radius instead of a third Electroclaw is more comfortable for attackers to handle, as it won’t require any extra gadgets to counter. The activation speed still allows for tricking and the return of his barbed wires should lead to more creative setups.

Kaid’s loadout has gone through several adjustments. This more cautious and step by step approach gives enough time to our community to explore all its potential.


WARDEN
  • Replaced Barbed Wire with C4
We want to increase his potential as a denial Defender for defuser plays. The C4 should give him more opportunity to defend a bomb site without exposing himself.

In addition, we are still considering other options to make sure Warden is relevant, we will tell you more when ready.


JACKAL

Jackal’s rework will be included in Operation Shifting Tides. As the most banned attacker, Jackal is a high source of frustration for many players and one of our top balancing priorities.



If you would like to know more about this rework, you can check our previous Designer’s Notes.[rainbow6.com]


LIMB PENETRATION

The new bullet penetration system will impact every bullet you shoot. Our Dev Team is aiming at reducing confusion. A side effect of this change should increase the lethality of various classes of weapons in certain situations. If you’d like to know more, please refer to this blog.[rainbow6.com]

NEW IN-GAME EVENT : LA CASA DE PAPEL

DEV BLOG: LIMB PENETRATION SYSTEM



In Y4S4 we are changing bullet penetration on character models in Rainbow Six Siege. This new system aims to increase the lethality of shots and provide guidance on where a bullet should land.

The goal of the new bullet penetration system is to reduce the impression of inaccurate hit registration, reducing past player confusion as to where a shot will land. The new penetration rules will be dependent on the type of gun used, and will determine how the bullet will travel after its initial hit.



PENETRATION RULES

NO PENETRATION
A bullet hits one body part and will not pass through to hit other body parts. This was the case for almost all guns in Rainbow Six Siege up until now.

SIMPLE PENETRATION
A shot that connects with a body part will then potentially hit another body part behind the first hit appendage of the same Operator.

For example, you shoot at an enemy with their hand up in front of their face after being flashed. If you hit their hand, the bullet will penetrate through to their head. The actual damage done will be calculated by taking into account the hit on the body part with the highest modifier (please see “Damage Modifier” section). In this case, the bullet’s damage will equal the headshot.

Please note that in simple penetration, a bullet will never hit a third part of the character. Nor will simple penetration bullets shoot through the first person to continue doing damage to another body.

As an additional note, should a bullet pass through two of either of the following: chest, neck, or head - only the 1st area hit will be accounted to calculate damage. This avoids issues where hitting the lower back of an operator results in a headshot.

FULL PENETRATION
If someone else is behind the first person shot, the bullet will damage the first person, then go through to penetrate a second person or surface. The second person will only take 70% of the initial damage.

For each body that the bullet hits under full penetration, the bullet’s damage and route will follow the same simple penetration rules above.

DAMAGE MODIFIER

Under the Simple Penetration system mentioned above, the body part with the highest modifier will be considered when determining damage when multiple parts are hit.

Hands/Arms: 0.75 (1 and 2 armor) and 0.65 (3 armor)

Groin/Lower Torso/Upper Torso: 1.0

Legs: 0.75 (1 and 2 armor) and 0.65 (3 armor).

Neck and Head: 50.0

ARMOR RATING
Since an operator’s Armor also affects the amount of damage taken, below is a breakdown of the 3 different Armor Ratings and how much of the initial damage a limb will actually take.

1 Armor: 1.0 (full damage)

2 Armor: 0.9 (10% lower)

3 Armor: 0.8 (20% lower)


The new Bullet Penetration system will be on the Y4S4 Test Server. We appreciate any feedback you all have to offer us on the new system and look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Rainbow Six Pro League – Season X Finals – Day 2
After 6 months of intense continental competition, the eight best teams from Season X will meet in Tokoname, Japan, to crown a new Rainbow Six Pro League Champion. This season’s conclusion promises to be unprecedented.

Y4S3.3 PATCH NOTES

Y4S3.3 PATCH NOTES



The Y4S3.3 patch will deploy for PC on Tuesday, October 22nd. For full details on the balancing changes, please see our Designer’s Notes[ubi.li].

MMR ROLLBACK UPDATE
With Y4S3.3 the MMR Rollback system is getting a few improvements that allow us to more appropriately target and address those who exploit the integrity of the ranked system. A drastic MMR change is a sign of massive irregularity and a red flag in our system. So we will now be resetting MMR for such players.

This means that instead of undergoing a significant change in MMR, players will have to redo their placement matches to get back appropriately on the ladder. Players who have their MMR reset will also not receive the seasonal ranked charm for their highest rank prior to the reset.

BALANCING

GLAZ
Stay focused on the details, but detail a bit faster now.

Increased Glaz’s rate of fire to 380 (up from 285)

TWITCH
Less fragging, more tactical dabbing.

Reduced Twitch’s F2 Magazine to 25 (down from 30)

WARDEN
Warden’s Glo Up.

Warden changed to 2 speed – 2 armor type instead of 1 speed – 3 armor

BUG FIXES

FIXED – Players can use a 3rd party hack to change other players’ operators.
FIXED – After switching from advanced to standard deployment, Attacker’s first breach charge deployment attempt gets canceled.

OPERATORS
FIXED – Blackbeard’s shield clips through his body when equipping while leaning.
FIXED – Hibana’s XKairos pellets can destroy other pellets deployed on the same wall even if they are out of the blast radius.
FIXED –Defenders can place a barricade or Castle’s Armor Panel over Goyo’s Volcan Shield.

USER EXPERIENCE
FIXED – Radio music doesn’t stop playing even when the radio is destroyed.
FIXED – Right clicking when in the scoreboard will cause player to enter ADS and the selected tab simultaneously.
FIXED – Mute text chat option does not work on LAN.
FIXED – When going into observation mode, SFX plays twice.
FIXED – My Rank UI tab now shows your current rank in the season instead of the highest rank achieved.
FIXED – Minor visual texture issues for Uniforms.
FIXED – Visual glitch if players switch weapons after rappelling.
FIXED – Menu UI visual fixes.

Y4S3.3 DESIGNER'S NOTES: MID-SEASON



In this patch’s Designer’s Notes, we are looking back at what has been shared earlier. Our Dev team had the pleasure of welcoming Prodigio Pete, Rogue-9 and Get Flanked into our Barcelona office, home of our balancing team. The discussion and data shared during the podcastt is available below, as well as the changes that will be implemented in the Y4S3.3 update.

WIN DELTA VS. PRESENCE



Please note that we are using presence to gauge the popularity of an operator. This notion had to be introduced to reflect the implementation of the pick & ban.

Presence definition: “pick rate of an Operator when not banned.”


BAN RATE



UPCOMING CHANGES

TWITCH
  • F2 magazine capacity reduced from 30 to 25
Twitch is still one of the top performing Operators, and despite a minor recoil nerf in an earlier patch[rainbow6.ubisoft.com] she remains a top attacker. We’re reducing her magazine capacity to lower her fragging ability, but no changes to her gadget as we feel her ability remains crucial to teamplay and is in a good spot now.

WARDEN
  • Changing Warden’s from a 1 speed, 3 armor Operator to 2 speed 2 armor
Warden’s presence is quite low, and we want to address that. By increasing his speed, he will have more opportunities to use his ability effectively. This is a first step into increasing the potential surrounding Warden operator and his gadget. We are also taking larger changes to his kit under consideration for the future.

GLAZ
  • Rate of fire increased for the OTs-03 by 33% (from 285 to 380 rounds per minute.)
We are still looking to calibrate the Russian sniper to find the right balance. We are quite happy about the previous work done to address the frustration stemming from his gadget but would like to increase his presence as he is the least played attacker now.

CURRENT STATUS

BLACKBEARD
Blackbeard’s win delta is currently on the rise. While we did not expect to see such a steep increase, we are following a few leads. We will continue to monitor his performance to see if tweaking is necessary to keep him on par with other attacking Operators.

NØKK
Nøkk has had a slow start and her pick rate is quite low. To make her a more attractive choice, we are currently reviewing some suggestions to improve her loadout. We feel it is premature to change anything regarding her as an Operator for now, so for the time being, we would like to keep monitoring her performance. The last few weeks of Pro League have shown a few interesting uses of her ability, and we would like to keep an eye on it to see how she can evolve.

KAID
We are exploring a few options for Kaid as we would like to offer the Moroccan defender more opportunity to use his secondary gadgets. We are not quite ready to give more details, as it is a work in progress.

JACKAL
  • Added different coloured circles around the targeted footstep for better visual feedback. These circles also have varying pattern lengths to be Colour Blind friendly.


As the most banned attacker, Jackal is a high source of frustration for many players and one of our top balancing priorities.

The primary focus of our design with the Jackal changes were on his tracking ability. Jackal’s tracking ability should require a more active contribution from the player and should be overall less frequent and shorter for defenders. We want to reduce the number of pings, based on the “age” of the footprint. We would also like Jackal mains to decide if scanning footsteps is the correct choice to make, as it will make them disappear.

The new version of Jackal is currently available on the Test Server and our goal is to have his update go live next season.
