The Rainbow Six Siege<\/a> anti-cheat system, BattlEye, is coming under fire from the community. While no anti-cheat is perfect, there’s a specific issue with the BattlEye system, where the rollback feature automatically adjusts players’ ranks when a cheater gets caught. This then nullifies the ELO change in a match, meaning players can lose ELO rating despite beating a cheater in a hard-fought match. Now, it appears some Rainbow Six Siege players have had enough, and famous content creator and former world champion, George “KingGeorge” Kassa, is protesting this issue.<\/p>\n

R6 Siege anti-cheat issue: KingGeorge protests<\/h2>\n

KingGeorge has taken to Twitter to announce<\/a> he will not be purchasing R6 Credits until the anti-cheat system is improved.<\/p>\n

Drawing a line in the sand, the content creator invited others to stand with him until such time as Ubisoft does something.<\/p>\n

KingGeorge on Twitter<\/span>I will not be purchasing R6 Credits until the Anti-cheat is improved. I really hope this isn’t a long term thing but it just hurts to play cheaters every game. It also sucks to lose hundreds of elo in rollback to cheaters that we beat. I invite others to join me in this as well. pic.twitter.com\/1tBuQaWK1m— KingGeorge (@KingGeorge) April 29, 2021<\/span>KingGeorge<\/span>Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

KingGeorge states: “I will not be purchasing R6 Credits until the Anti-cheat is improved. I really hope this isn’t a long term thing but it just hurts to play cheaters every game. It also sucks to lose hundreds of ELO in rollback to cheaters that we beat. I invite others to join me in this as well.”<\/p>\n

KingGeorge expressed his disappointment with the cheating problem in R6 Siege, and talked about ELO rollbacks: “I’m really disappointed with the cheating problem in Siege. It sometimes makes the game super annoying to play. I still love the game, but it annoys the hell out of me when I’m playing against people who are cheating.<\/p>\n

“I got 274 ELO rolled back today against cheaters that I beat, and no one that I’ve played with has been banned. I don’t even get to keep the ELO I get beating cheaters. The system is bad.”<\/p>\n

Many players have come out in support of this protest against the Rainbow Six Siege anti-cheat system issues. <\/p>\n

Even the likes of AceeZ, Rogue’s in-game leader and shot-caller, appears to be joining KingGeorge<\/a> in not purchasing any more R6 Credits.<\/p>\n
