Hi NynniSWAG! I was able to locate your ticket. Please update your ticket with a screenshot of your port forwarding setting so we may verify you've done the troubleshooting correctly. Once the team has that information, they can look further into it for you!

Hey adyka2111. The code you're getting usually means BattlEye is having issues loading, or is already running. Make sure to completely end task on all Rainbow Six Siege programs in Task Manager, then try launching again. If that error code comes back, do the same but then verify your game files from either Steam or Uplay, wherever you have the game installed. Let me know if it carries on afterwards.

Just to confirm Volly, This thread isn't for reporting bugs, but it was to announce the Bug Hunter Program. Bugs should be submitted on the R6FIX website.

Hey everyone, We have been testing another potential solution to the IQ, Clash and Deployable Shield exploits. With this update in place, we have not been able to reproduce these exploits internally. As such, we are pushing a patch today on PC only , Clash and Deployable Shields will remain disabled. We are planning to deploy this same patch on consoles as soon as possible, the earliest deployment window available to us is Thursday, June 27th. Until then, IQ will be removed from the operator selection screen for consoles. If you are able to reproduce the exploits following the patch deployment, please let us know through the R6Fix portal. If that is the case, we will remove IQ from the operator selection screen on PC as well.

Hey everyone, Posting the patch notes here as well if you'd like to discuss any changes happening with the upcoming patch/season. Operation Phantom Sight Patch Notes.

Hey everyone, Here are the patch notes for Y4S2 Phantom Sight.
Have a read through the article and I'll post another sticky thread in General Discussion as well.

Hey everyone, Just posting here as well to let everyone know we are aware of the current bugs with Clash, Deployable shields and IQ. These are being investigated and worked on currently. We'll update further on this Reddit thread and on Twitter when we have more information.

However, I'm confused. If you TK me 4 times, and I forgive you..then you won't be accountable for bans or RFF? But If you were sanctioned after your 1st TK then how do you TK me 3 more times during your RFF sanction? Would this be via the unintentional explosives RFF action?

If you keep forgiving someone because you feel it was an accident, that player won't be banned and RFF will not be activated. If you say the first TK was on purpose, the next time I attempt to TK you I will receive the damage. Also your feedback is great, by the time Year 4 Season 2 update rolls around when we make further changes from the community feedback and data gathered I'll be able to give you more answers then.

good job UBI.

Well all I can say is when this goes live later on today, give it a go and tell us how you feel afterwards. Read more

Hey! So the bans for TK'ing is still there in the background, if you inflict enough team damage you'll get the correct ban (30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 24 hours, 7 days) applied to your account if the validation has been confirmed as an intentional team kill. The only difference is, you still get the death once RFF has been confirmed. If I TK you 4-5 times over the whole match, but you see they were all accidental and you report it as Not Intentional there will be no RFF activated and the TK ban will not be applied. If there is no answer on the validation screen, intentional is automatically applied.

2. Speaking of C4..if a player C4's multiple friendlies..what happens? ...

Hey everyone, Just going to post here as well so anyone can reply and discuss on this thread.
RFF Announcement included again below; Spoiler:  Show Hello Everyone! Reverse Friendly Fire (RFF) is coming to the live servers tomorrow (this now being today). When a player abuses the friendly fire mechanic to grief their teammates, this system is activated. We believe that this first version will be a positive step forward in our fight against team killing while maintaining the same intensity and high stakes gameplay that is core to the Rainbow Six Siege experience. The Y4S1 release of RFF is not our final version of the system. Future iterations and improvements will continue based off data and player feedback. Community feedback so far has been invaluable and allowed us to make early iterations to the system. For example, RFF can now activate based on total friendly damage. In these cases, there is no validation screen for the offending player’s teammates. We are also ... Read more

You'll need to contact support. regarding the ban on your account.

Hello ZarrDy As previously mentioned the MMR rollback is only changing MMR where a cheater has been banned from that match, meaning all exchanging of MMR points has been made invalid. Looking into your account, I can see you've lost MMR from rollbacks, but you've also gained some as well from losing a match against someone who has been banned for cheating, so you are getting the best of both worlds here. Just to confirm, any MMR taken from your account will not be changed, we cannot manually edit this. Read more

So how am I supposed to prevent it from happening again if i don't know what caused the ban in the firstplace? Also I have seen countless photos of other politicians such as Bernie Sanders, Obama, etc and they haven't got their photo taken down. I have had this photo since November 2017 and it's only an issue as I get ban? That leads me to believe they are connected .It kinda seams that Ubi soft is really pushing an agenda

You have not been banned for 15 days from Rainbow Six Siege because of your Avatar, this is not possible. It will solely be due to the reason stated in the ban message when you're on the main menu of the g... Read more

The Test Server is only available on PC.

There won't be a change in the answer. in UBISOFT's view is also stated. Please refrain from using Political figures in your avatars going forward if you're still able to choose one, thank you.
