full breakdown of all the features<\/a>.<\/p>\nMore granular changes can be found below.<\/p>\n
Rainbow Six: Siege Operation Shadow Legacy patch notes<\/h2>\nBalancing<\/h3>\n Maverick<\/strong><\/p>\n\nMaverick now has an additional blowtorch canister, with 6 in all (up from 5).<\/li>\n This gives players more leniency when rationing their fuel to open hatches. On average it requires approximately 2.3 canisters to open a hatch, so an extra canister will be a bit more forgiving of mistakes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nNew sights, modification & redistribution of older sights<\/h3>\n New Sights\/Scopes<\/strong><\/p>\n\nNew M4S Red Dot Sight – 1.0x zoom, which functions as a ‘no zoom’ sight<\/li>\n New MH1 Holo Sight – Alternative Holo that offers a clean sight and new reticule.<\/li>\n New ACOG (1.5x Scope) – An ACOG with short-to-medium range magnification<\/li>\n New Scope (2.0 Scope) – With medium range magnification<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nModified Sights<\/strong><\/p>\n\n2.5x ACOG – Zoom level changed.<\/li>\n 3.0x Scope – No longer a unique option, and will be an option for most DMRs (depending on balancing needs)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nPlayer comfort<\/h3>\n Minimum MMR Gain\/Loss<\/strong><\/p>\nWinning\/Losing a ranked match will now give a minimum of 25 +\/- MMR gain or loss. We’ve also tweaked the MMR gain\/loss distribution to prevent diminishing MMR returns for players who play lots of ranked games.<\/p>\n
In-Game Report Notifications<\/strong><\/p>\nYou will now receive in-game notifications after a player that you reported is sanctioned. These will replace the ‘Thank you’ emails for reporting a banned player. Play nice. Play fair. Report those that don’t.<\/p>\n
Vote-To-Kick Removal (Later in the season)<\/strong><\/p>\nLater in the season, we’ll be removing vote-to-kick from Quick Match—the only playlist which had this feature. We’ve been monitoring the use of vote-to-kick and have found that it has since strayed from its original intent, leaning towards a more toxicity-related use case. With the numerous RFF conditions in place, as well as the improved player-reporting panel, we feel the original need for vote-to-kick should be fulfilled by these other options for reporting toxic players instead. We strongly encourage you to report toxic players via the in-game reporting panel so that they can be sanctioned.<\/p>\n
Caster HUD<\/strong><\/p>\n\nA new player card is present at the bottom-center of the screen that will help viewers swiftly notice which player they’re spectating. This is extremely useful, especially when switching quickly between players’ views.<\/li>\n Player’s life bar has new feedback to easily spot players taking damage<\/li>\n Activating and deactivating the defuser has a new VFX to make this action more noticeable when it occurs during the round<\/li>\n Drone Info is now present in the player card even if the operator is dead or in the DBNO state<\/li>\n Abilities and gadgets have new VFX for their states when they are ready, active, cool-down, etc.<\/li>\n Hostage and Secure Area game modes are now shown as feedback in the HUD<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nGame health<\/h3>\n <\/h3>\n Gadget Deployment Refactor<\/strong><\/p>\nMoving forward with our push for behavioral consistency, we’ve built further on our Y4S4 projectile map asset destruction changes and brought it to deployables.<\/p>\n
To make gadget deployment behavior more predictable and consistent, deployable gadgets will now either destroy fragile\/smaller map assets when deployed on them (paintings\/posters), or deploy without impediment on normal textured surfaces (paneled walls\/carpets).<\/p>\n
ADS Sensitivity System<\/strong><\/p>\nPlayers now have the option to customize ADS sensitivity in the Options menu. With the ADS Sensitivity System, ADS is more consistent across all sight\/scope magnifications. You can customize sensitivity levels per zoom level according to your personal preference by selecting the ‘Advanced’ option in the Options menu.<\/p>\n
Vault Detection<\/strong><\/p>\nImprovement of the vault detection system will make vaulting smoother, easier, and make vault behavior more consistent.<\/p>\n
RFF + Hostage Rules Update<\/strong><\/p>\nWe’ve updated the RFF rules around hostage to be more consistent and transparent to prevent ambiguity and abuse.<\/p>\n
MMR Rollback Cap<\/strong><\/p>\nThe cap for MMR rollback has been raised from your max MMR for the season to your max MMR + a fixed amount. We hope this will give a bit more flexibility for MMR rollback and reduce some of the frustrations surrounding it.<\/p>\n
Sound Refactoring<\/strong><\/p>\nWe have begun the process of refactoring our sound system, which will essentially repackage the way sounds are stored and connected to the game. For more information on what that means and how it will improve our sound system, please see Top Issues & Community Concerns<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
