Rainbow Six Siege

Re: Rainbow Six Siege

This has been the biggest issue with the game by far and it's not even close. Just the server issues in general. I've sat on the screens for 15-20 minutes at a time on occasion. Unacceptable in a 5v5 environment. COD 2 back in 2005 ran just fine...how in 2015 this is still a thing is beyond me.

Outside of that it's a great, unique game with a solid first patch. But the server issues are a downer.

Today was the only day I have really had issues. Been pretty good for me prior.

I've only had horrible in-game lag yesterday. The rubber banding was pretty bad. But the long list of connection/server/net code issues are well documented and as frustrating as poor hit detection can be (drives me crazy when it's at its worst) nothing frustrates me more than essentially wasting time because of a variety of connection issues.

It's just inexcusable in 2015 and it's even more maddening because when this game works right, it sits firmly on my Mt Rushmore of online shooters along with COD4, BF4 and GRAW 2. It's that good.

Re: Rainbow Six Siege

Guess I'll have to hop on after work for a few matches and see how the patch is. I'll most likely be on around 6:30-7ish PST if anyone is down for a few games.

Re: Rainbow Six Siege

What time is the patch dropping? I'm assuming sometime in the afternoon.

Re: Rainbow Six Siege

So what system are people on? I am thinking of picking this up after Christmas but don't really want to run with randoms. But would definitely run with people on here. If I do get it, it would be on X1.

Re: Rainbow Six Siege

Don't know what they did server wise today besides a patch, but the game is playing awful tonight. I'm talking being literally 10-15 around a corner and still getting shot and dying. It wasn't just one match. I played about 3 and they were all terrible. Everyone has decent connection, 60-80, but it's just plain bad.

And on PS4, I guess nothing was touched with hit detection because it's still godawful. I love this game, but the hit detection wasn't even close to being good enough for a finished product and it still isn't.

Sucks if true. About to jump on in a few and see for myself.

Re: Rainbow Six Siege

No playing tonight. Constantly getting dropped from games.

Re: Rainbow Six Siege

I was just jumping in to talk about what a noticeable improvement this game has made with this first patch. Had no issues connecting with my friends, typically found matches within a minute, no drops...high praise from me tonight.

Netcode issues persist but they too are better than prepatch. A shame people are still having some issues.

Most of us are on PS4.

Re: Rainbow Six Siege

Server performance got better as the night went on last night, but that first batch of matches was the worst it's ever been for me. All 5 of us were rubber banding, getting killed when way past corners and vice versa. It did get smoother as the night went on and by the end of the night none of us were having any issues with connections in the game.

However, the new matchmaking was taking 7-8 minutes on average to find a match. I knew it would take longer with a higher priority on ranks, but I didn't expect it to take as long as it was all last night. And it seemed every other time we searched for a match we would get an error and have to send out squad invites again.

My biggest issue is the hit detection though. Hopefully the consoles see some improvement soon because this game is so fun, but the inconsistency and overall poor quality of the hit detection sticks out like a sore thumb. Every other aspect of the game feels polished from a game play standpoint until you actually try and shoot the enemy.

I still recommend the game, but an really hoping some more fixes are not top far off.
