Rainbow Six Update on Boosted Cheater Ban Wave


Update on Boosted Cheater Ban Wave

Posted: 04 Sep 2018 10:14 AM PDT

On Friday, August 31st, we initiated a ban wave targeted at boosted players.

During the process of investigating player claims of erroneous bans, we discovered an issue with our data that resulted in ban inaccuracies that affected some of our players. Players flagged for playing with cheaters were banned as intended, but some players were mistakenly banned after being grouped with players permanently banned for toxicity.

To correct this, we have unbanned all players that received a 15-day sanction for being boosted by a cheater. We are currently in the process of validating the data, and reverting the sanctions and MMR resets for the innocent players that received the sanction in error. Once we have ensured the erroneous bans have been cleared, we will re-initiate the ban wave for the finalized list of players meant to be banned for being boosted by a cheater.

Additionally, all players banned in error will receive a 30 day Renown Booster, to be activated at their leisure.

We apologize for the issues caused to innocent players. We will be reviewing the validation process for data sets of this nature to catch these types of problems before they have an impact on our players.

Update: We have finished processing the data and all players flagged for playing with cheaters have now been correctly banned. Any innocent players affected by the ban have been un-banned and will have their MMR and Ranked Charms re-added to their accounts this week. The 30 day Renown Booster compensation will also be delivered later this week.

Grim Sky Rook Model Feedback and Update

Posted: 04 Sep 2018 10:54 AM PDT

We've heard your feedback on the updated Rook Model in the Grim Sky Test Servers. In an ongoing effort to improve the visuals in Rainbow Six Siege, we occasionally update the models of our Operators. As such, we changed the base model for Rook's face, which was only visible on the elite uniform.

We will not be able to revert the face model completely. We will be lowering the visor, and tweaking his face model to make him appear a bit older. These corrections will not go live with Operation Grim Sky, but will instead be implemented in later patch this coming Season.

Do the Moroccan operators need a nerf?

Posted: 04 Sep 2018 10:26 AM PDT

I know grim sky has been out for a couple of hours but with some people saying Maverick needs a nerf, I'd like to ask a more important question, do the Moroccan ops, that we know nothing about, need a nerf? I feel it's important to complain about characters being over powered before we've played with/ against them for 10 minutes, thank you for reading and giving your opinion

Also nerf blackbeard again because patch notes aren't the same without his name being there

Additional Points per Kill

Posted: 04 Sep 2018 01:35 AM PDT

We all know about the "+10 Sister Rivalry" or the "+10 clay pidgeon". Wouldn't it be cool if we had the opportunity to earn more lore-based points or just additional points for a good performance? Here's a list of small additions that would make the game's lore more known (maybe) and earn us more points:

+25 double kill

+50 triple kill

+75 quadra kill

+150 ACE

When either Echo or Ying kills the other one: +10 Heart Broken (Echo and Ying used to be a couple before breaking up)

When either Doc or Lion kills the other one: +10 Detestation (Doc and Lion aren't great friends and despise one another, if you follow dulcamarra you probably know something about it)

When either Thatcher or Lion kills the other one: +10 Rematch (Thatcher punched Lion in the face after he offended him during a training exercise)

When either Maestro or Sledge kills the other one: +10 Interrupted Friendship (in Maestro's bio they are dsscribed as great friends, and Maestro even invited Sledge in italy, to his house)

When either Mira or Ash kills the other one: +10 Blue Orion Flashback (in Mira's bio is said that she "developed a rivalry woth FBI SWAT operato Eliza Cohen (Ash) after operation Blue Orion" we know nothing about this operation)

When either Finka or Tachanka kills the other one: +10 Interrupted Love (Finka flirts with Tachanka) ((yes it's in her bio)) (((no I'm not kidding)))

When either Finka or Kapkan kills the other one: +10 Scarred for Life (Kapkan accidentally hit Finka in the face with a knife during a training session, hence her big scar and name, Finka means "Knife" in russian)

When Fuze rescues the hostage: +10 Against Nature Whe all know why

When either Vigil or Dokkaebi kills the other one: +10 Babysitting (Vigil was assigned by Six the mission of looking after Dokkaebi, due to her rebel teenager-like attitude)

When the last two men standing on a team are Lion/Montagne, Thermite/Thatcher, Valkirye/Ela, Smoke/Lesion or Maestro/Alibi and manage to win the round : +10 Best Buddies All of these couples as described as good friends in the lore

Last but not least, since in Vigil's bio Blackbeard is seen by him as a mentor, When BB kills Vigil: +10 More to Learn When Vigil kills BB: +10 Student becoming Master

These are adjustments that would not give an advantage over the others players in the scoreboard, but more of a small connection between the action made and the characters you made it with. Hope i taught you something today and maybe one day we'll see this in the game.

Let me know in the comments if there was something i should add
