I actually played this again the other night with some gaffers.

So how does the casual matchmaking work now? The matches I played seemed super easy, the first match I had played in two months and I went 14-1.

I was killing people with the same old tricks and gimmicks that I used two months ago, including killing people outside after they spawned when on defense. I thought people would be familiar with this stuff by now?

Still, I had fun and it was nice to play and co-ordinate with the people that were with me. One guy with a shield helped me clear rooms a few times especially. I love shield users, they're great. If you protect me, I promise I'll try not to shoot you in the back :p

Is there a glitch with renown? I was playing with a friend earlier and commented that I was almost 48k, and when we logged off later I noticed I was at almost 47k. No, I didn't spend any. I'm wondering if I lost session renown by quitting before it went to matchmaking or something.

Casual is pretty up and down in my experience. You go through a bunch of easy games and then finally get a team that puts up a real challenge.

Game felt rough as hell last night man...questionable kills and deaths galore. I love this game but damn can it be hit or miss.

Matchmaking is so slow on consoles. Feels like we spend more time on the matchmaking screen than actually playing. Im on ps4 on brazilian servers, but since last week i started to see more us players with terrible pings. Maybe a sign that the player base is shrinking or did they opened the servers ip restriction?

The game needs desperately new content like more maps and operators.Or maybe a rework in existent operators like iq and her gadget.

I need more content and the game needs more content for being alive with a healthy community.If ubisoft not put more content the people are going to move to others games

Too late.This kind of game needs new content every month or 2 month max.And do special weekend with 2xp or community goals for unlock a skin or something like.They are not doing nothing.

We need to be getting info on a new map and operators very soon. It's been over 2 months now since the last update. That's unacceptable to me after the plan they initially laid out.

Why they haven't made the Article 5 map available to multiplayer games as a stop-gap is beyond me. The map is in the game already, it's there! Just let us play it! (without the smoke of course).

What do people get out of team killing? It's really pissing me off getting shot in the back at the start of a round and a lot of the time my team quits instead of kicking the bastards so I'm stuck with them!

These assholes have learned to injure people instead of outright killing them. They need to implement a system that bans people for weeks when they do that.

I do agree that Ubisoft and the developer haven't supported this game very well, and I feel that the rate of content suggests that they have just a very small portion of the team still working on the game.

I wonder what their staff are workng on now.

Hopefully they're working on reading "How to Develop for Dummies: Ubi Edition".

Feels good. I'm now L21 and starting to get kills more regularly and even clutched a few matches

Does Mountain need a buff? I wonder why play him over Fuze and Blitz. Those other two shield dudes just bring way more to the table? Maybe Mountain has more armor I guess I need to look at the stats

Played quite a few matches last night. I'm really enjoying the P90. Dropping fools with it. It's always an interesting gun to use in shooters just because it's so unique looking.

who got P90? Like which specialist

I tried to play last night at about 2am central time. Couldn't find any ranked games and casual was taking 10-15 a match to find something.

On the other hand, my friends and I haven't had any problems since the patch on UK/Irish servers which is amazing considering all the problems we've had since launch.

All's been well for me also (PS4 UK) matchmaking wise since the new patch hit. I hope it stays that way, but issues seem to arise a few weeks after a patch is released.

I love the new Buck. Feels well balanced as an attacker that requires skill to use effectively and is still dangerous in a 1 on 1. I feel like the recoil pattern being so crazy on his automatic is the signifier of how best to play him, short accurate bursts from where the enemy doesn't expect via muder holes from the master key. If you get into prolonged battles you are giving up your advantage.

The smg11 nerf is weird, it's recoil is clearly way worse but people didn't use it in that way with spraydowns anyway, it was always a quick tap gun. People running acog can still get quick headshot taps because of the high first shot accuracy, but there is really no way of changing that because siege as a game has accurate bullet to crosshair mechanics, making your first shot be off mark wouldn't feel right. As a holo user I find it still works great at mid range, but I still think they should remove the ACOG (at least for defensive smg11s).

I still really want to be able to change loadouts in actual games, some attachments are so much better on certain maps. I hope Ubi is looking into that.

I was having fun this weekend. I think Alpine just needs to take some R&R and go back to TLoU for a while haha. Then he'll realize what really bad netcode is.

The highest level player on the team wasn't playing and the competition got a little easier? I'm sure it did. I'm sure my level brings higher level competition even though my level doesn't mean I am good.

Speaking of that, I'll post a Chronospherics like non-humble brag.

TLOU has a better netcode.

I mean moreso that there weren't so many questionable deaths like Friday night, which felt downright unfair.

Ah, April 12 is finally here. Now I have to decide which challenge I want to tackle on my video games every night: Dark Souls 3 or Siege's matchmaking system.
