I thought this was about soccer, stupid click bait title.

Every SNES game in a tiny little box to use on your TV was my drive. Or hobby carpenters who want to make their own arcade cabinets.

You better erase that, he gave me shit for wanting to use raspberry pi.

He has surprisingly not so bad farm missions. I'm in.

I've been on one and I enjoyed it as an alternative to flying to a destination. But it's just like being at home so they aren't my first choice. I ate myself into a coma.

Wait so they did a bank robbery, a bomb scare and a kidnapping as a prank? Who the fuck thinks that's a smart idea?

That thing is mesmerizing.

I just finished 2nd in the last tournament. 2500 honor and got some heroes out of those pulls.

Orthos and Nikana Prime

This game will sell like hot cakes and it will be primarily due to the remaster. It was smart by them as this would be the one time I picture their sales falling to battlefield, but with that remaster it should be on top again. Not a chance in hell I'd buy it though.

I for once held off!

For a 50$ season pass they will release one single player mission quarterly, that's 2 hours of extra gameplay! IGN 10/10

The sales that pop up all the time annoy me a bit but I made an account, level 12. The3rdWalker.

**GAME BALANCING** Operators Balancing IQ’s gadget now has enhanced visual feedback We have changed the way IQ’s device displays the environment and electronic devices. You can now see through the screen, and there will now be an outline of the detected devices. The effective detection distance is now 20 meters. - Tachanka’s LMG is now easier to place and easier to use We have modified the placement zone so it is easier to deploy Tachanka’s Mounted LMG in tighter spaces, and while closer to walls or other objects. You will also be able to interact with the Mounted LMG much quicker than before (faster entry and exit time). This is a first step for Tachanka tweaks as we will continue to monitor and improve him. - Montagne’s shield adds side protection We are introducing added protection to Montagne’s shield to cover his sides. We believe this will make him a more interesting option, by pushing even further his defensive capabilities. This will allow him to enter rooms more safely and provide even more cover to his teammates. - Frost no longer has a Nitro Cell Building on the tweaks to Frost’s Super 90 shotgun introduced with Patch 2.3, we have decided to replace her Nitro Cell with Barbed Wire. We saw that the reduction in range to the shotgun did not really affect her selection rate nor her win rate. Since she has a very good and useful unique gadget, we believe that this change will fit her role as a trapper better. - Buck gets grenades & reduced recoil, but his shotgun loses range We are removing Buck’s Breach Charges due to the increase of Buck’s shotgun destruction radius. Instead, we are giving him frag grenades which we think will make him a more aggressive offensive Operator. We are reducing the horizontal variation on the recoil for one of his primary weapons, the C8 rifle. That means that when you hold fully automatic fire, the gun will move a little less in the left/right direction. We have slightly reduced underslung shotgun’s effective range by 2 meters, so it fits more as a tool than a clear-cut offensive weapon. - Thatcher’s EMP grenade gets a range reduction We’ve reduced his unique gadget’s effective range from 7m to 5.2m. The intention is to keep him from clearing a whole room of gadgets, from the top, bottom, or even sides. We want to encourage players into thinking where the best spot is to throw the EMP. Additionally, Thatcher’s EMP now disables enemies’ sights completely for 10 seconds. - Sledge swaps Breach Charges for Stun Grenades We have replaced his Breach Charges for Stun Grenades making his loadout options more versatile. We believe this change is for the best as Sledge has the equivalent of a better, reusable Breach Charge with him. He is also statistically almost never played with Breach Charges, which makes sense. - Thermite swaps Frag Grenades for Stun Grenades We are swapping Thermite’s Frag Grenades for Stun Grenades. There are two reasons behind this change. The first reason is that Thermite has a very important unique gadget, making him one of the most pivotal Operators in an attacking team. The second reason is to limit the number of concurrent Operators that can bring Frag Grenades on the field. To us, two Operators with frag grenades is more than enough for an attacking team, and more than two would make it a lot harder for the Defenders to protect their objective. This will make Thermite slightly less offensive, while giving him more utility. - The FBI SWAT Recruit Shield loadout will now have heavy armor The FBI SWAT recruit equipped with a shield is now bearing heavy armor, making him a 3 armor and 1 movement speed instead of 2 armor and 2 speed. We made that change for shield-wielding Operators to be consistent in speed. We saw what kind of aggression the Recruit Shield could bring and a skilled player taking full advantage of his loadout was too strong. This change should help making him on par with other shield-wielding Operators and effectively allow the newer Rainbow Six Siege players to get accustomed to the movement speed that shield-wielders have. Gadget and Attachment Balancing Introducing gadget placement cancellation controls We have introduced a new flow for placing gadgets. Instead of holding a key or button and letting it go when you are ready to place the gadget, you can now press it to take out the gadget in your hands and then hold it to place the gadget. You can also cancel the placement at any time. This feature will need to be turned ON in the Options menu. - Red Dot & Reflex Triangle sights now more precise The green triangle in the Reflex Sight and the red dot in the Red Dot sight are now much smaller for better precision. - Flash Hider & Compensator adjustments We have reworked how the Flash Hider and Compensator function. We want them to have more significant roles, like the Silencer. The intention is to have each attachment reward a specific weapon wielding style. Flash Hider Besides still partially hiding the flash, we have opted to reduce the time it takes for the weapon to center back and reduce the first shot recoil. This attachment will now reward single-shot and short burst firing. Compensator We have added a cap on the maximum recoil this attachment allows for, making fully-automatic fire more potent. Stun Grenades now detonate faster after contact - Stun Grenades now detonate 1 second after making contact with a surface instead of having a 3 second fuse. We wanted to make that change because we think it will add a surprise effect and will make them more effective. **Weapon Balancing** - Pump-Action Shotgun rebalance We have improved the pump-action shotguns by giving them more effective range for their maximum damage. This means that their full damage will begin falling off at a further distance than previously. - SDASS Compact 53 damage up to 3 meters -> 53 damage up to 5 meters - 591A1 48 damage up to 5 meters -> 48 damage up to 6.5 meters - M870 60 damage up to 2 meters -> 55 damage up to 3.5 meters This change was primarily due to feedback we received from the community and from workshops with Pro League players. Please note that the line is very fine between underpowered and overpowered for shotguns. We will be monitoring the change to these weapons closely. **PLAYER COMFORT** Controller aiming deadzone fix There was an issue with deadzones on controllers that has been fixed, which will result in smoother and more accurate aiming while using a controller. No more penalty points for destroying your own gadget You won’t be penalized for destroying your own gadgets anymore. For example, if you’re Rook and someone forgets to pick up an armored plate, you can now destroy the bag so the enemy can’t take advantage of it, without losing points. Maintenance System Messaging There is now an improved maintenance messaging system that will provide a prompt before the maintenance occurs. Additionally players will not be able to attempt to join a game during a maintenance. Edit playlist – Custom Games You can now edit custom game playlists. Skip boot sequence You can now skip the boot sequence by pressing any button. Options, Activity, and Squad menus Now in-game menus, like the Options menu, are black. **PLAYLIST CHANGES** Seasonal Ranked Beta & Ranked Reward System We are introducing Seasonal Ranked Beta and an exclusive reward system for the end of every season. Starting at the end of Season 1, every player who earns a rank will receive a reward based on their rank tier when the season has finished. We will also be doing a complete reset of ranks for Season 2, with a soft reset of ranks for future seasons. This means that everyone will be going into Ranked Season 2 from the same starting level, while future seasons will be a compression of player ranks. One of the reasons why we are doing a complete reset is primarily due to the bug that was counting players’ matches as an abandon when exiting the match before the After Action Report animation had completed. This bug was fixed in Patch 2.3, but the results of this means that there are a lot of players still stuck at a lower rank than they should be. So doing a complete wipe of ranks means these players are not penalized for Season 2. Until further notice, Ranked is considered a continuous work in progress as we will monitor data from matchmaking closely. Throughout the Season, we will continue to introduce improvements based on this data and feedback from the community. Our intention is for the community feedback to continue to shape Ranked, as you have helped us shape many aspects of Rainbow Six Siege. We encourage you all to play Ranked Season 2 and provide us with feedback on your experience as this will be an evolving feature. Ranked Matchmaking now matches you with players closer to your skill We've tweaked the way rank and MatchMaking Rating (“MMR”) calculations work. The uncertainty level of your skill (the sigma value) now has a much stronger importance when matching you against other players. This has two consequences: New players (e.g. placement matches, where the system doesn't know much about you yet) have a very high uncertainty value. In Season 1, winning your first one or two placement matches would often result in you getting matched against high Gold or low Platinum ranked players for your following match. Season 2 matchmaking now errs on the side of matching high-uncertainty players with lower-skilled players, which should make for a match with closer actual skill rating. Rank variation in matches should feel smoother in your first ~20-30 matches of the season, instead of the fluctuations we used to see in Season 1. In addition, we've reworked the UI to show you your MMR and where you stand in your current rank bracket. This should make it easier for you to see what you need to do to rank up or to avoid ranking down. 10 Ranked placement matches instead of 5 We have changed the number of Ranked placement games you need to complete before being ranked. This is to ensure that you are indeed placed in the right skill bracket as 5 games was not giving the matchmaking system enough certainty about your skill. Ranked Display Changes All players’ ranks are now displayed in the After Action Report, and we’ve made it clearer when you change ranks. Ranked Abandon now has a Renown penalty When you abandon a Ranked match, you will now receive a 50% Renown penalty for a fixed time for Ranked matches. **GAMEPLAY OPTIMIZATION** **POSITIONING AND PERSPECTIVE REPRESENTATION IMPROVEMENTS** Reduced exposure on Operator’s head positioning while aiming We have grouped the camera and head placement tighter to expose the player’s head less. This should mitigate the issue where you are looking down from a window and someone can see your head but you can’t see theirs. Animations when leaning are now mirrored on both sides Since all Operators are right-handed, leaning on the left or right gave a different head exposure. We have mirrored the animations in a way that exposes the head as much on the right than on the left. **VISUAL & AUDIO IMPROVEMENTS** Indoors vs. outdoors lighting differences are now less extreme We have improved visibility when looking inside and outside, from the opposite perspective. This is especially noticeable for extreme cases where it was too bright or too dark. **Graphics update** We have improved many aspects of the graphics. One of them being the HDR rendering, so that the game will be more contrasted and saturated. Additionally some of the lighting on menus have been tweaked, and the lighting on the weapons has been improved. Added gun occlusion to make sound more realistice In addition to sound propagation, we have added gun occlusion sounds to represent a more realistic sound profile. This means that you will have additional positional information when someone is firing behind a wall near you, or above/below you. Killcam black & white effect reduced The black and white effect for the killcam is now greatly reduced. Near death visual effect reduced The near death effect now desaturates the colors a lot less. Death animation polish The death animation has been polished to make it more organic. Larger weapon preview size The preview size of a weapon is now bigger in the menus. **DESTRUCTION IMPROVEMENTS** Car windows are now breakable You can now shoot through previously unbreakable car windows. **OTHER IMPROVEMENTS** **ANTICHEAT AND TOXIC BEHAVIOR** **Code of Conduct** [Link](http://rainbow6.ubi.com/siege/en-US/news/detail.aspx?c=tcm:152-249092-16&ct=tcm:148-76770-32) We are introducing a Code of Conduct that clearly states how we expect players to engage with one another in and outside of the game. We have developed a discipline matrix that coincides with the Code of Conduct and will be using this as a procedural guideline to take disciplinary action against players we identify as exhibiting toxic behavior, including cheaters. Click here to read the full Code of Conduct. Ban escalation is now harsher for cheaters With Season 2, we are implementing a new escalation plan for cheating. First Offense: Temporary ban for a maximum of 15 days. Second Offense: Permanent ban. Cheating is an on-going battle, but we want to be clear: cheaters are not welcome in our game, and we are always advancing towards meaningful solutions. Bans for toxic behavior We are introducing temporary and permanent bans for offensive behavior, such as racist comments. In these cases, we will apply the following discipline actions: First offense: Warning Second offense: 2 day temporary suspension Third offense: 7 day temporary suspension Multiple offenses: permanent ban Cheating in the Pro League and ESL We are working closely with ESL to investigate any team or player that is accused of cheating while in the Pro League. Additionally, any player identified as cheating in the Pro League will be banned in-game. **PVE IMPROVEMENTS** Reduced friendly fire in PVE Friendly fire damage percentage in PVE has been reduced from 0.25 to 0.1 in Casual, and 0.5 to 0.25 in Normal. More appropriate AI balance for Consoles vs. PC. We have rebalanced the PVE on Consoles to match win rates of PC. Previously, we observed that PC players have a higher win ratio at all levels of difficulty. This is mostly due to the fact that the mouse and keyboard are a more precise input device than controllers, making it more difficult for Console players to achieve the same results as their PC counterparts. **In-game shop** - [CHARMS](http://static9.cdn.ubi.com/resource/en-US/game/rainbow6/siege/R6_dust-line_bg-customization-2.jpg) Charms are now available for weapons. Whether you want to equip your favorite operator, a six medal or a unicorn, you can now equip your weapon with a lucky charm before going into battle. - [HEADGEAR](http://static9.cdn.ubi.com/resource/en-US/game/rainbow6/siege/R6_dust-line_bg-customization-1.jpg) Swap out your operator’s headgear from basic camo upgrades to high quality traditional military and fantasy gear. Unlock new gear using Renown, R6 Credits, or a combination of the two. - DUST LINE WEAPON SKINS With Operation Dust Line, get the USA desert Camo, the Dust Line signature skin, the Navy SEAL skin and more. More items from the in-game shop are now available for purchase by R6 Credits or Renown. Additionally, the overall cost of weapon skins have been reduced. In Season 2, we have reworked the weapon skin tiers to only include three tiers instead of five. We have also added a Seasonal Tier for the signature skin of Season 2. **NEW FEATURES** - [WINNING TEAM SHOWCASE](http://static9.cdn.ubi.com/resource/en-US/game/rainbow6/siege/R6-dust-line-feature-team_248352.jpg) We are also introducing a new winner’s showcase to the end of multiplayer matches. After the final round, the winning team’s operators are displayed in all their glory to both the winning and losing teams, and an MVP for the match is crowned, for ultimate bragging rights. - LOADOUT CUSTOMIZATION BETWEEN ROUNDS You can now customize your operator’s loadout between each round. Simply select your operator and go to their loadout to select weapon, attachments, charms and headgear. **2 NEW OPERATORS** With Operation Dust Line, Team Rainbow recruits two of the Navy SEAL’s finest: Blackbeard and Valkyrie. The new Operators are immediately unlocked for Season Pass owners, with a 7 day exclusive access. All players can then unlock the Operators with Renown or R6 Credits after the exclusive period ends. **NEW MAP** - BORDER Team Rainbow has been called in to assist the local law enforcement and regain control of the border. Two Navy SEALs stationed in the area have been enlisted to provide their expertise of the region to Team Rainbow. A mix of old and new buildings with open air pathways make this the most destructible and open planned map to date. The new Border map is available for free for all players. **MAIN BUG FIXES** **GAMEPLAY** Fixed – FBI Operator sights losses accuracy after aiming with secondary weapon.

I've made prime access and the platinum sale go a fairly decent way.

My last three purchases where just to make a statement which I'm not proud of but hey, fuck it. I still have 1945 platinum left!

The music set the tone to the point I got goosebumps. I've waited for a WW1/2 shooter for a long time and I'm more inclined to like the Battlefield franchise than Call of Duty. #HYPE

I'll design whatever you want bby

I would storm your castle so effing hard on my steed your head would spin Phil.

I was surprised that the USB device they put their product on wouldn't work either, hell I was shocked it wasn't a CD/DVD in the case...

what happens if it's tribal warfare.
