Within Rainbow Six: Siege<\/a>, AFK (Away From Keyboard) players have become something particularly problematic since it’s a game that relies a lot on teamwork.<\/p>\n

However, many users take advantage of this system to use bots, get out of games and get experience doing nothing, following a trend known as AFK farming that waters down the grind that takes to get an account to level 50, the minimum necessary to play in competitive.<\/p>\n

Through a statement on Twitter, Ubisoft has announced that from now on, they will apply strong sanctions against users who sabotage games while AFK, after having detected an increase in cases of players who abuse this during the last week.<\/p>\n

In order not to ruin the experience of the rest of the users, the team responsible for this will take measures in this regard, by launching a new wave of punishments when certain users are detected not moving in the game or show irregular behaviour.<\/p>\n
