I know people at Ubi Montreal, you guys can guess EXACTLY what happened. If it makes anyone feel better, they were significantly more depressed working on this season than we are playing it.
makes me feel worse. I feel so bad for the devs that genuinly care about the game and work on it, only for the greedy higher-ups wanting to drain every last cent out of out wallets.
@@Avozl They do care but Ubis inability to put out other quality games means that Siege gets drained at every possible opportunity. The battle between the devs and corporate is constant and ongoing- the big guys know they fucked up so will back off for a while but another New Blood will probably happen eventually.
Back in the day we had a high quality season trailer, two operators, a map, three new guns minimum, CGI or Gameplay small individual trailers for both operators, cool lore hidden facts in op bios, a cool main menu wallpaper with a unique season theme and sometimes huge events that werent recycled at the time, like outbreak or Rainbow is Magic. Oh, we also had 4 seasonal universal skins. I understand that this level couldnt be mantained forever, but are they even trying now? The Game feels dry. Even skin quality has become worse with time. Can someone PLEASE compare Velvet's shell season trailer with the one we got now? Its sad
That's sad to hear. You'd hope with a relatively light content update, that it'd feel more like having extra time to make cool things. It's rough, because there probably aren't as much people working on this stuff as there used to be.
Okay? They could’ve done something to make it better. It’s like they tried to give us the worst season ever. Even bringing back flesh and metal next week which is largely agreed upon to be the worst event
The thing that makes the recruit rework so sad is that this is the second one. Two primary and secondary guns and some gadgets is all they added. In a game that has over 20+ guns in each slot.
Also keep in mind they didn’t add guns to the recruits, they replaced the guns they did have with even fewer options (also options I just like less but that’s personal preference obviously)

Hey mate. I know I’m just a stranger on the internet, but I feel compelled to comment as someone who’s watched your videos over a fair few years. Like many watching this video today I was wondering why you sounded a little different, it had been a minute since I watched your content since I haven’t had an interest in Siege for a while now. So I did a quick look on your socials and figured out why. I also saw that you lost your old boy recently, and I’m very sorry for your loss. All I can say is I wish you the best with your decisions. I really, really hope they give you the closure and solace you are seeking.
This season has been awful for me. The lack of content doesn’t bother me too much. It’s been how buggy the game has been. Half my matches this season has had the chat bug where no one can hear each other on voice chat, text chat doesn’t work half the time. I’ve gotten the audio bug a few times now where the game is silent for hopefully just the round, if not the rest of the match. Game has had some crashes, but takes forever to reload so you get an abandon section if it crashes half way thru a match. All that and it’s not even accounting for the cheating. It gets very frustrating to play the game when you have maybe 2-5 hours a week to play. I really hope they’ve been cooking an engine upgrade/rewrite similar to CS2. I think that’s the only way it’ll fix the game and allow it to hit 100 ops.

Playing Rainbow Six at this point is like being in a toxic relationship where you know they're not gonna change, but hey it's still kind of comfortable because you're used to it.

They keep making horrible nerfs, rarely ever buff, made quick play bad (qb 2.0), made unranked bad (standard) and made ranked bad (ranked 2.0). It legit feels like they've been systematically destroying the game on purpose. They take away and never bring back all the fun spots and modes we like (OG outbreak or OG Mute protocol) and now are drip feeding us content. A season without an operator is insane, and to think we aren't getting one next in S4 either is actually wild. This game will never hit 100 operators only getting 2 ops a year, it will die out long before that.
I got pissed when they removed t-Hunt and replaced it with a.i playlist. That playlist sucks, t-Hunt was so good for Warm ups imo. They remove all fun stuff, they really want this game too die
G i'm not gonna lie, I haven't watched a siege video in easily a year at this point. with the direction that their monetisation is indicative of, ensuring that the best years of siege are well and truly behind us. but I have to say thank you for the years of coverage, I always thought that you brought a more methodical style approach to siege content whilst being entertaining. I hope you can replicate such success in your future endeavours. a final 'sah dood&/ett!' from me
I swear this season the bugs have been skyrocketing for me, the no sound bug, the constant lmg fire in the corner of site bug, text chat not registering bug its extremely frustrating
Yeah the Solis nerf was just horrible, i understand somthing had to be done, maybe take away her impacts or nerf her gadget a bit but they took it way too far with everything they did she's borderline useless now and they're talking about nerfing her more next season as well that's crazy. Immediately reminds me of Nokk and how nobody uses her anymore after Silent Step was removed and now Ubisoft keeps saying "wE dOnT kNoE wHy NoBoDy PlAys KnOkK nOw"
The sad part is that Deadly Omen brought me back after 4 years I ragequit in Void Edge (Y3 Operation Chimera player here). Could've kept the momentum going, like how Myths and Mortals season in Fortnite got me addicted to that game as I'm a HUGE sucker for Greek Mythology and despite this season not being as good (lacklustre characters, bosses + weapons are meh), I had a BLAST with the Metallica content! Alas, - New Blood more like New Bugs.

Or just toxicity in general, one of my recordings had 2-3 of my teammates being utterly racist to each other in voice chat. Maybe they were friends fucking around or some kind of social experiment prank as well as actual hatred, but either way I was like "WOW this game isn't for the faint for heart LMAO" - the battle pass lore is rly boring compared to last season's, last season I got a smile from reading Zero's "Thanks for the save kid. Come to training sometime" comment on Rook's BP skin - the story itself feels like it's at a dead end, maybe like an inbetween before something big happens. I hope so, the same way Deimos shook up the Siege storyline... - this season's skins are very uninspired compared to Deadly Omen's (both BP and seasonal skins), Outbreak's and Containment's which I still main to this day. To name a few favourites, IQ Containment skin, Rook Deadly Omen BP skin, Lion's BP skin, Mira's BP skin, Deadly Omen seasonal in general I just run it on HIbana, Kapkan or any op I like running really.

Icing on the cake would be getting Plat rank one season just to prove I CAN do it but if not oh well. It also doesn't help that the cheater problem kills my desire to improve at the game, why bother suffering through all those ranked games just to enter the cheaters' jurisdiction, not the playerbase's jurisdiction hmm? Not saying champ is impossible, Jynxzi and his boys pushed for it successfully this season but definitely way harder than it needs to be for the wrong reasons (cheaters and the odd hit reg/controller deadzone glitch/bugs in general) It's just too much man, seriously. Our time on this Earth is finite, not infinite and other games, other interests, other hobbies old or new exist during this finite period. Knowing me I'd probably go to some single player or MMO game to enjoy myself hoping that it's free of developer + community stupidity in any shape or form. Or stick to the classics. I'll find a way, trust me. Good luck to anyone who still plays this game after I go and thank you Greg, VarsityGaming, CoconutBrah, Beaulo, Alka etc for being brilliant role models to the community at large. Your work will always be appreciated ❤ *tl;dr* Deadly Omen brought me back, but New Blood undid all that hard work so last season for me. Other games exist anyway so I know where the door is. Best wishes everyone!
Getting serious whiplash going from those sponsored G videos talking about how cool the new season was and other such PR whatnot only for G to instead bounce to this, telling the truth about how rough things truly are. Props to them for speaking up about how it really is but it hurts a little bit after those sponsors at such a disastrous time in R6's History. They've gotta eat though and YT's a rough ecosystem so I don't hold it against them. Glad to be back on the same page with G! o7
@@meeeeoooowwnot everyone is gonna know. As someone who has only recently gotten back into watching Gs stuff, I only noticed them changing their voice after a few videos. They sound like they're really trying and I can appreciate the progress, but that doesn't mean everyone knows yet, and doesn't mean it doesn't take time. I think it's a good thing to educate others on what is happening, encouraging a more genuinely positive and reassuring community, but getting angry over someone accidentally misgendering G is not the right way to do it. 👍
The reason why nobody believes Ubisoft about them fixing the anti cheat is because T6 is BY FAR the worst game with cheaters on PC. Every game on PC is dealing with up tick of cheaters but R6 anti cheat is horrible, watching Vasity they don't even do basic stat bans which is insane.
Honestly, the nerf for solis/fenrir affected them the complete opposite ways I expected. I thought fenrir was too harsh, and the Solis was probably gonna be still very much viable. Turns out it was the other way around. I still bully people with Fenrir, but I NEVER see anyone using Solis, ever. Haven't seen her once this season, and I've probably played about 50 games or so already lol
Love hearing a smart gal talk about Siege! Commenting for engagement. I havent been into Siege in a hot minute but i keep watching just to hear your opinions.
Yo’, it’s been a while since I last watched your channel, a couple years now I think since the last video of yours that I watched was “How To Play Osa”, and this video came up on my homepage feed. I do gotta ask, if it’s not rude to, I can’t tell if I’m just imagining it, but what’s up with your voice? It sounds kind of squeaky or scratchy compared to how I remember it.
He changed his name from Gregor to G and is undergoing a gender change, slowly. He is taking some stuff that is altering his voice to be more feminine.
to counterbalance the ignorance, your voice is incredibly impressive. your bravery, especially in gaming communities which can be so goddamn hostile, is remarkable
I haven't played siege in about 2 years, but it was the first game me and my friends tried to actually rank up in. It had it's quirks, but it was a ton of fun for the most part. Hopefully they pull back next season. Also kept watching your vids despite that, they have a nice flow, lol.
Me and my friends have played the game very regularly since 2018. We have barely played this season and have been playing a ton of valorant on console. Just has been a much more rewarding experience
THIS is the video I needed you to echo us on. Thank you. I understand your gripes about people complaining when we/they don’t know what goes on in the background… however, it’s finally come to the point where we truly sick of this mortal loop we’ve gone through playing this game. THIS GAME HAS ESSENTIALLY BECOME SISYPHUS’ BOULDER & WE CANT GET IT OVER THE HILL. Enough is enough ubi. I know this dev team is passionate enough to fix this game. The company is hindering them from doing so. It’s a tragedy to see my favorite mp game sink further down the hole…
You took a sponsorship/promotion deal Rainbow Six+ (or whatever it is called). There you have the reason: Unstoppable corporate greed that makes a few Ubisoft shareholders money!
I've seen so many people get in a gunfight, see bloodsplatter and then when they're killed zero hits have registered - I've had it and I assumed it was lag but I've not seen it so often on a season and never had other teammates talking about it across almost every lobby I'm in (console)
Been playing this game for years and this season is one of the only seasons where I genuinely felt like permanently dropping the game. I got close but I haven’t, I want the game to succeed but Ubisoft truly has shown time and time again they have no idea what direction they want to take this game and Siege just feels like a shell of its former self now. More content but more hollow at the same time…
Just started playing the game so I have no knowledge of its previous iterations. I hope things get better for returning and veteran players. Ela is bae.
I just wanna point out the game is still wildly popular even though it is on a downturn it’s still very likely the dev team will get it back together by the end of the year like usual
Honestly the 5 nerfs they gave solis was a little harsh but I’ve been playing her for awhile and she’s still fine. Also the recruits were “remastered” and I’m happy to finally see em in ranked because it’s all I play so for me personally it’s kinda new, both ops are good too so I’m not really disappointed.
If we get those 200 or however many operators I'll be out the collage tuition I'll have for my child someday. It was a good uh mediocre vaguely sometimes enjoyable run
I played R6 for years, took a break and tried it a couple of days ago for the first time in years. The worst thing for me was actually the 5 business days it takes to ads in this game
This season sucks cause I can’t play it, I’ve been paying for a while and it never loads me in, I know I took a break but match making should at least load me in to players my skill level even though I haven’t played, this game doesn’t give an incentive to play anymore either, it’s just sad
If you didn’t have a channel based around siege, would you still play the game? I find that even if a game was in a good state, after playing for a while I gotta move on. And in the states it been in it further solidified not needin’ to come back. Keep my good memories with the boys during covid as is.
All they do is nerf everything, and ash, Jager, and all the others still have a high pick rate. They have failed to balance the game. Who knew that making everything weaker, slower, and barely putting anything in the game for a new season would be bad.
Ubi: " we wholeheartedly agree with G's gaming experience's video about new blood. Thats why we're very excited to announce that we will be reworking Border to be much more like Blackhaven Labs!"
What irks me so much ist the gap between operation health and this one. In health they announced cut and clear that they needed time thank you see you in three months. This time they just lied a bit, and make it seem like a full season
You know the season’s gonna be rough when part of the “content” is a nerf or a buff. We need to remove their idea that balancing is part of the “content”
If only they had an entire community willing to play test servers or something... That aside, I'm not so faithful as you are, G. With how old the game itself is I'm not really confident they can stop the cheater problem at this point, idk maybe I'm just despairing but it's been going on for so long and so severely that I really don't feel much hope anymore. Just gonna try to enjoy it until it's over :'(
I tried Xdefiant and a teammate said for me to uninstall the game because I was "costing them the game" where I kept feeding. Cry me a river boy, this game's free and I'm playing the objective which was *PUSH THE DOG.* Not to mention I have a *SLOW* laptop which is about 4 to 5 years old.
I have had zero games ruined by cheaters, yet DOZENS ruined by gamebreaking bugs like not being able to use my weapon or just straight up having a teammate not connect 1 out 10 games
I've never understood the constant craving for new content. In R6S it feels like "Content" doesn't actually mean anything interesting to me anyway: why do I care if a new operator has a *new variant of 5.56 pew pew machine*, I can barely comfortably equip and run half the guns in the game as is. I've played the game for...1500 hours? It's not a solid critique or push-back on my part, I've just always found it odd that the first thing everyone mentions is "we aren't getting new guns". Guns are so damn boring in the game anyway, who cares. Give me interesting game modes. Give me game health and quality of life. R6S is a monumentally challenging game to get into, and I doubt even 1% of it's players feel like they're "up to speed" with its content.
I don’t understand why Gregor takes it so easy on Ubisoft. They release NO new substantial content. They objectively make recruit worse and less enjoyable to play (which he doesn’t even mention) and massive NERF two operators and disguise it as content. Even downplaying how fucking vile the membership system is, not criticizing it for being an objectively money hungry tactic to suck up more cash and time from a desperately resource poor game. But that it was packaged wrong and the audience would’ve just gotten over it had it be released properly. Why are you doing this man, like defending the frost rework or complementing how well put together the trailer was. Like why? Who are you sugarcoating this for? This is an appalling season that is so devoid of content the numbers are at an all time low. Just say it.
i dont really play siege but as an FPS addict i can get the problems, some games i recommend if you want to try something new just for a change of pace, trepang2, insurgency sandstorm, squad, ghost recon wildlands (i think it was on sale for $5 idk if it still is), the OG dishonored game is a great refresher too though it isnt an FPS
I think New Blood also signals the anticipated injection of new players. There is already so much to learn for actual brand new/returning players, they could view this as a point to stall the META a little for the new people to catch up. Or I'm just giving Ubisoft too much credit.
Minor spellibg mistake

It also doesn't help that the cheater problem kills my desire to improve at the game, why bother suffering through all those ranked games just to enter the cheaters' jurisdiction, not the playerbase's jurisdiction hmm? Not saying champ is impossible, Jynxzi and his boys pushed for it successfully this season but definitely way harder than it needs to be for the wrong reasons (cheaters and the odd hit reg/controller deadzone glitch/bugs in general)
It's just too much man, seriously. Our time on this Earth is finite, not infinite and other games, other interests, other hobbies old or new exist during this finite period. Knowing me I'd probably go to some single player or MMO game to enjoy myself hoping that it's free of developer + community stupidity in any shape or form. Or stick to the classics. I'll find a way, trust me. Good luck to anyone who still plays this game after I go and thank you Greg, VarsityGaming, CoconutBrah, Beaulo, Alka etc for being brilliant role models to the community at large. Your work will always be appreciated ❤
*tl;dr* Deadly Omen brought me back, but New Blood undid all that hard work so last season for me. Other games exist anyway so I know where the door is. Best wishes everyone!
Getting serious whiplash going from those sponsored G videos talking about how cool the new season was and other such PR whatnot only for G to instead bounce to this, telling the truth about how rough things truly are. Props to them for speaking up about how it really is but it hurts a little bit after those sponsors at such a disastrous time in R6's History. They've gotta eat though and YT's a rough ecosystem so I don't hold it against them. Glad to be back on the same page with G! o7
This comment is with good intentions but would it kill you to use their preferred name? At the very least?
@@meeeeooooww Sorry. Just used to calling him Gregor from the old days. I'll edit it.
@@meeeeoooowwis it really that serious?
@@meeeeoooowwnot everyone is gonna know. As someone who has only recently gotten back into watching Gs stuff, I only noticed them changing their voice after a few videos. They sound like they're really trying and I can appreciate the progress, but that doesn't mean everyone knows yet, and doesn't mean it doesn't take time. I think it's a good thing to educate others on what is happening, encouraging a more genuinely positive and reassuring community, but getting angry over someone accidentally misgendering G is not the right way to do it. 👍
@@meeeeooooww would it kill you to not be a condescending twat? at the very least?
Thumbnail says Disater
The reason why nobody believes Ubisoft about them fixing the anti cheat is because T6 is BY FAR the worst game with cheaters on PC. Every game on PC is dealing with up tick of cheaters but R6 anti cheat is horrible, watching Vasity they don't even do basic stat bans which is insane.
My guess is that big companies don't see cheaters effecting the bottom line so they put any and all anti cheat on low/no priority
Honestly, the nerf for solis/fenrir affected them the complete opposite ways I expected. I thought fenrir was too harsh, and the Solis was probably gonna be still very much viable. Turns out it was the other way around. I still bully people with Fenrir, but I NEVER see anyone using Solis, ever. Haven't seen her once this season, and I've probably played about 50 games or so already lol
We need The Division 3. Also very impressive to see how much you've grown, especially when comparing your videos from a year ago. Keep it up!
Kinda a fascinating exercise in negative synergy for all those bad pr moves to occur within one season.
Love hearing a smart gal talk about Siege!
Commenting for engagement.
I havent been into Siege in a hot minute but i keep watching just to hear your opinions.
Yo’, it’s been a while since I last watched your channel, a couple years now I think since the last video of yours that I watched was “How To Play Osa”, and this video came up on my homepage feed. I do gotta ask, if it’s not rude to, I can’t tell if I’m just imagining it, but what’s up with your voice? It sounds kind of squeaky or scratchy compared to how I remember it.
He changed his name from Gregor to G and is undergoing a gender change, slowly. He is taking some stuff that is altering his voice to be more feminine.
*she is doing voice training. the hormones don't alter my voice.
@@GGEI also haven’t been here in quite some time, hope everything goes well!
@SB_kilsgb growing pains of explaining a transition, lol. Hopefully everyone can adjust with time.
to counterbalance the ignorance, your voice is incredibly impressive. your bravery, especially in gaming communities which can be so goddamn hostile, is remarkable
I haven't played siege in about 2 years, but it was the first game me and my friends tried to actually rank up in. It had it's quirks, but it was a ton of fun for the most part. Hopefully they pull back next season. Also kept watching your vids despite that, they have a nice flow, lol.
Me and my friends have played the game very regularly since 2018. We have barely played this season and have been playing a ton of valorant on console. Just has been a much more rewarding experience
LMAO the bud light bit is so good 😂
Also you should definitely go back to VALORANT it's so much better, I do NOT miss this game lol
Mousetrap does t really work on console either, so every game there are at least 2 MnK sweats just slamming everyone with Ash/Twitch/Doc/Melusi
why does his voice sound different? what happened?
THIS is the video I needed you to echo us on. Thank you.
I understand your gripes about people complaining when we/they don’t know what goes on in the background… however, it’s finally come to the point where we truly sick of this mortal loop we’ve gone through playing this game. THIS GAME HAS ESSENTIALLY BECOME SISYPHUS’ BOULDER & WE CANT GET IT OVER THE HILL.
Enough is enough ubi. I know this dev team is passionate enough to fix this game. The company is hindering them from doing so. It’s a tragedy to see my favorite mp game sink further down the hole…
I want to play siege so bad but I will have an aneurysm
You took a sponsorship/promotion deal Rainbow Six+ (or whatever it is called). There you have the reason: Unstoppable corporate greed that makes a few Ubisoft shareholders money!
I've seen so many people get in a gunfight, see bloodsplatter and then when they're killed zero hits have registered - I've had it and I assumed it was lag but I've not seen it so often on a season and never had other teammates talking about it across almost every lobby I'm in (console)
I only ever play this game when I need something to join a friend on and zone out to talk to them. The competitive aspect is completely dead for me
The sound engine has never been so bad. It’s actually disgusting and ads times are just a joke.
Ubi used to cook. The kitchen is char now.
You haven't been around long have you?
Been playing this game for years and this season is one of the only seasons where I genuinely felt like permanently dropping the game. I got close but I haven’t, I want the game to succeed but Ubisoft truly has shown time and time again they have no idea what direction they want to take this game and Siege just feels like a shell of its former self now. More content but more hollow at the same time…
if this is the direction they're taking for 10 more years, this game wouldn't even last 10 months
We all just gonna forget G was shilling for the membership
Skibidi gyatt rizz
“Refreshing bud light” yea your lying
Gregor this game is going downhill
Greggorina
I think bro’s tweaking out now
Commenting to show my support!! I haven't played R6 in some time, but I love your takes. Keep up the good work.
Am a normal diamond players and now I can’t get out of bronze this ranked things sucks
Just started playing the game so I have no knowledge of its previous iterations. I hope things get better for returning and veteran players. Ela is bae.
same thing has been happening to for honor, its crazy how similar these 2 games have been shitting the bed recently
I just wanna point out the game is still wildly popular even though it is on a downturn it’s still very likely the dev team will get it back together by the end of the year like usual
this season has made me lose all will to play the game it is so boring and repetitive
Honestly the 5 nerfs they gave solis was a little harsh but I’ve been playing her for awhile and she’s still fine. Also the recruits were “remastered” and I’m happy to finally see em in ranked because it’s all I play so for me personally it’s kinda new, both ops are good too so I’m not really disappointed.
I'm just hoping the devs get to work on s3 properly and head in a good direction when Kure gets added to the game.
If we get those 200 or however many operators I'll be out the collage tuition I'll have for my child someday. It was a good uh mediocre vaguely sometimes enjoyable run
"I got into an argument with a 14 year old, I am pushing 30" hit so hard from a fellow 30-pusher.
Man, if only my accuracy in ranked was as good as Ubisoft's is when shooting themselves in the foot...
Yo G why did you leave your gameplay comms on? I cant focus on your monologue while tipsy from the 4th; will rewatch later lol
I played R6 for years, took a break and tried it a couple of days ago for the first time in years. The worst thing for me was actually the 5 business days it takes to ads in this game
This season sucks cause I can’t play it, I’ve been paying for a while and it never loads me in, I know I took a break but match making should at least load me in to players my skill level even though I haven’t played, this game doesn’t give an incentive to play anymore either, it’s just sad
Bring back Terrorist Hunt,so I can play with myself...I mean by myself...I mean single hand... nevermind
i wouldn’t be able to handle that enemy game chat, would have made me furious
If you didn’t have a channel based around siege, would you still play the game? I find that even if a game was in a good state, after playing for a while I gotta move on. And in the states it been in it further solidified not needin’ to come back. Keep my good memories with the boys during covid as is.
yoo what happen to my dude voice?
transition
As a former Siege player, this is like watching Operation Health happen all over again lmao
The Valorant rant was so fucking real
god i love this game but this season has made it so hard to keep playing
Surely they'll save it next season
Next season right guys, surely
All they do is nerf everything, and ash, Jager, and all the others still have a high pick rate. They have failed to balance the game. Who knew that making everything weaker, slower, and barely putting anything in the game for a new season would be bad.
Ubi: " we wholeheartedly agree with G's gaming experience's video about new blood. Thats why we're very excited to announce that we will be reworking Border to be much more like Blackhaven Labs!"
hmm
12:38 nah bro we got DAK PRESCOTT in the mf building 🙏🏿😭
crazy lol its almost like everyone was saying this was gonna happen
2:42 "allocating resource" Picks RAM... dont know if that was a planed edit but funny all the same
What irks me so much ist the gap between operation health and this one.
In health they announced cut and clear that they needed time thank you see you in three months.
This time they just lied a bit, and make it seem like a full season
You know the season’s gonna be rough when part of the “content” is a nerf or a buff. We need to remove their idea that balancing is part of the “content”
Gregor when an op with a strong ability now has to use lesser guns to maximize their potential: 😦☹️😔
Bro at 0:19 Sledge's operator portrait is so odd. He ha the build of a Destiny 2 male hunter
If only they had an entire community willing to play test servers or something...
That aside, I'm not so faithful as you are, G. With how old the game itself is I'm not really confident they can stop the cheater problem at this point, idk maybe I'm just despairing but it's been going on for so long and so severely that I really don't feel much hope anymore. Just gonna try to enjoy it until it's over :'(
Game completely lost its soul. First marketed towards a more serious tactical game, and then to esports and then to whatever the fuck it is now.
Disater :(
Have they fixed Ranked 2.0 matchmaking yet? I haven't really played until it came out. I'm still waiting for that fix.
I tried Xdefiant and a teammate said for me to uninstall the game because I was "costing them the game" where I kept feeding.
Cry me a river boy, this game's free and I'm playing the objective which was *PUSH THE DOG.*
Not to mention I have a *SLOW* laptop which is about 4 to 5 years old.
I have had zero games ruined by cheaters, yet DOZENS ruined by gamebreaking bugs like not being able to use my weapon or just straight up having a teammate not connect 1 out 10 games
Thanks for the info on vulkan I knew something was off
13:12 I’ve been saying this for literal years and it never gets better 😭
I've never understood the constant craving for new content. In R6S it feels like "Content" doesn't actually mean anything interesting to me anyway: why do I care if a new operator has a *new variant of 5.56 pew pew machine*, I can barely comfortably equip and run half the guns in the game as is. I've played the game for...1500 hours?
It's not a solid critique or push-back on my part, I've just always found it odd that the first thing everyone mentions is "we aren't getting new guns". Guns are so damn boring in the game anyway, who cares.
Give me interesting game modes. Give me game health and quality of life. R6S is a monumentally challenging game to get into, and I doubt even 1% of it's players feel like they're "up to speed" with its content.
3 nerfs actually, the recruit nerf was a bad "rework"
As a Chicago Bears fan, there's no chance that Siege can disappoint me the way that I've been disappointed in the past.
I don’t understand why Gregor takes it so easy on Ubisoft. They release NO new substantial content. They objectively make recruit worse and less enjoyable to play (which he doesn’t even mention) and massive NERF two operators and disguise it as content. Even downplaying how fucking vile the membership system is, not criticizing it for being an objectively money hungry tactic to suck up more cash and time from a desperately resource poor game. But that it was packaged wrong and the audience would’ve just gotten over it had it be released properly.
Why are you doing this man, like defending the frost rework or complementing how well put together the trailer was. Like why? Who are you sugarcoating this for? This is an appalling season that is so devoid of content the numbers are at an all time low. Just say it.
Just let it die already lmfao
i dont really play siege but as an FPS addict i can get the problems, some games i recommend if you want to try something new just for a change of pace, trepang2, insurgency sandstorm, squad, ghost recon wildlands (i think it was on sale for $5 idk if it still is), the OG dishonored game is a great refresher too though it isnt an FPS
I think New Blood also signals the anticipated injection of new players. There is already so much to learn for actual brand new/returning players, they could view this as a point to stall the META a little for the new people to catch up. Or I'm just giving Ubisoft too much credit.
Also fuck BattleEye, as useful as a chocolate teapot.
On top of all the Solid nerfs you mentioned you forgot they also made her ability take longer to recharge and made it burn out faster when using it.
i'm not a regular viewer, but this video was very funny. loved the punchlines. thank you
