I'm so sick and tired of waiting 20+ minutes for the game to finally work, only to have a dumb fuck TK his entire team as soon as it loads. This community is filled with fucktards.

Whats the difference betweem ash and sledge? Seems ash is better?
Ash can breach from a distance. Only has two shots. Sledge is obvi close range but can destroy the same shit she can, but has much more swings available. Different boats.
I prefer Sledge. He has frags. And I like his AR more.
He also has an SMG secondary. Do not, I repeat DO NOT sleep on it. Smack a ACOG scope on that and rack up the headshots.

Ah the frags sound useful
Does the hammer act as a better OHK melee weapon too?
You mean that machine pistol?
I've only ever managed to kill one person with the hammer and that was Doc in the animation of reviving himself. I'd imagine it's the same as the knife though, just slower. Killfeed would always be hilarious though seeing a hammer kill pop up.
And yeah. Him and Smoke use it. It's especially good with Smoke, breaking windows and sniping people. Takes awhile to get used to but man is the ACOG good on that.

LOVE day variations to the maps. Love.
I just wish it was possible to shoot out lights and use actual darkness (with the ability to use night vision)
If some maps were outsidr somehow, itd be so awesome
Also, one guy went outside (glitch) and I tk'd him.

I agree with Hiiilife. Sledge has a great AR and he can carry grenades. Also hammer is basically unlimited

Cod4 had it and I loved it. It's somewhat possible to disable lights right?
Thatcher can with emp nades. Lights flicker back on in like 5-6 seconds tho. Damn I miss CoD4.

Cant they make lights go dark somehow? This game has no dynamic lighting right?

Irritating when random team mates feel the need to strafe in front of your line of sight when you already have a hallway covered. Especially when you have a better weapon to do so than they do.
Having to wait until some idiot has shot all of his M10 shotgun rounds out down a corridor before he will get out the way and I can kill the person he's aiming at... it's annoying. People are so desperate to be the person to get the kills that they just throw themselves forward.
In many cases, if I don't simply move out of the corridor and give the lane to the guy pushing forward, he will get us both shot, as bullets fly through him, into me. So I move, he gets killed, and we achieve nothing. Success!
Sometimes people just aren't patient enough. You don't always need to do anything. Sometimes you can just wait, and shoot at what you see.

I love playing as doc and healing my pals.
Also, ran into a jerk who was exploiting the out of bounds thing again. Dude didnt find us in time and we wrecked him. Second time, he ran back inside.
So, Ive already run into 2 cheaters so far. I dont imagine ranked is worth playing until it's sorted out

I'm at the point where I'm playing with at least three friends when I matchmake. If we run into one of those exploiters, we votekick them before the round starts.
Yeah, it sucks that we have to play with a man down, but we're good enough that we can win a 4v5 without cheating. Let's hope that 1.3 isn't too late into January.

It was sadly a 5vs3 cause two guys dropped during the loadout screen,but I still love sniping on the Plane as Glaz

The issue with connecting to games on PS4 in Rainbow Six Siege should now be resolved. Thank you for your patience.

Well they ruin that with the big red name tag when your crosshairs are over an enemy. That needs to go too.

Saw this on the rainbow6 subreddit. I would totally play a lego rainbow 6.

Yep. Glaz is really good without ever using him as traditional overwatch sniper. I almost find him more effective indoors. Since I am still new, I tend to hang back a little when my group moves inside, and having the red shifted scope with better zoom than anyone, I can pick off people through longer sight lines pretty easy. I prefer semi auto weapons over auto weapons in any shooter, and he has the only semi auto weapon worth a damn in the game. All the other weapons that shoot slower don't have enough accuracy or damage offset to ever make semi auto fire worth it over full auto. Double click to kill for body shots, or line up the headshots. Both feel great.
A couple of clips from my session last night.
I was playing with randoms, and Sledge seemed to be a new player, as he didn't seem to understand which reinforcements to break down. Towards the end, despite me repeatedly marking the door for him to smash, he ran off, so I broke it down myself, resulting in a literal last second hostage rescue.

Against the same team, things got crazy once they located the hostage. As Pulse, I must have panicked them or something, because their behaviour was hilarious, especially Blitz towards the end.

Playing with mics is undoubtedly THE way to play this game, but sometimes playing without can have hilarious results.

I have some questions about some of the rock,paper, scissor aspects of Castle barriers and operator specials ; Can Sledge smash them down? Can Fuze penetrate them with his cluster device? Do any bullets penetrate them, like Glaz's rifle? Can defenders shoot through the Castle barrier to preemptively destroy a breaching charge like you can with regular wooden reinforcements?
Sledge CAN smash them down.
Fuze CAN penetrate them with his cluster.
Glaz' bullets Can penetrate them.
Defenders CANNOT shoot through them, but if someone is placing a breach charge, their feet can be shot through the gap underneath the barricade.

Damn.. so they aren't as effective as I thought for securing rooms. I think I am going to start doing what one Castle player did in a group I ran with on the weekend. He would use them more as decoys. Just barricade some doorways not immediately adjacent to the objective to cause people to waste breaching charges and give away their position.
I'd recommend them for some windows, otherwise Castle is useless (Even to the point of hurting the team if you have it blocked on objectives)

Yeah, the main positives for Castle are that little spots can't really be punched out like the wooden doors (which is sometimes crucial, for both attackers AND defenders) and they can't be shot through.
Some areas, I actually prefer Castle NOT set up his barricades. Easiest way to cover a door/entrance is from another door that you can punch a little hole through.
Castle is crucial in rooms with lots of windows, though.

Didn't know this. Thought it was just terrorists that could do it. Good tip!
Shame it doesn't so visible damage whilst you're doing this though.

And remember that walling your team into a tiny box doesn't do them much good. A lot of the times we use our castle to push our defense into larger areas so they aren't shooting fish in a barrel. Those walls use up a lot of attackers resources, and loud resources that allow you to detect a direction and prepare to defend that area.

Castle's pretty good but only situationally. I like him for the basement in the Oregon map. If you barricade and electrify the wood panel and Castle-barricade the doorway at the top of the stairs, you can camp there and shoot anyone who tries to breach the door in the feet. Unless they're smart and breach the floor above the stairs, which I learned today you can do.
I used to take Castle if no one takes him but I kinda stopped that. His barricades are just too easy to take down.
His barricades many times hurt your team as well. They are best for windows but that tells the other team "Hey we are in here!!!!" If they havent found the objective.
His guns are alright but I would much rather be Jager, Mute or Smoke usually.

Tried ranked for the first time last night.
Initial 5 games (I solo Q'd) put me at Silver II.
I noticed the cheaters seems to be in ranked more than casual. Had a dude go 11/0 on the enemy team and was popping us all through walls and such.

Ash can bring them down as well.
Castle barricades are amazing for windows when combined with mute. Then only sledge and ash can take them down. If you have pulse on your team you will get a free c4 kill camping those windows and blowing up anyone who comes to breach them.
Evolved1
make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
I've been stonewalled by Castle. The last one alive at the end of a round, having equipped smokes instead of breach charges, and unable to get into the damn objective room as time expires.
It's a terrible, helpless feeling. As the team watches you flaccidly fail and flail in those closing moments.
Castle's prophylactic barriers making the objective practically impregnable.
It's rare though.
lol

I take it you couldn't punch them down cause you were out of time/he shot your feet?

Yep, this is huge. I normally just cover one or two windows if there are any with Castle barriers and then save one or two for late round barriers. When you know their entire squad has committed to a single avenue of attack, and the time is winding down, you can really funnel them in a direction or straight up block them out of the objective room (with other barriers and operator talents combined) I forget what map it was on, by my squad locked down a room where with the team make up of the attackers, there was no way in for them but one door we intentionally left open. Then it was just a shooting gallery.
