Correct! We had temporarily removed the escalations of Abandonment Sanctions due to the huge increase in DDoS attacks. With Y5S1, we are turning those back on for Ranked and Unranked. This means that the more someone abandons a match, the longer the penalty will be. Read more

We don't have any details to share but the team is working on implementing a replay system! I do agree that it would really help with VOD reviews.

Thanks for sharing your concern. R6S does not have plans to go F2P in the near future. There are other aspects the team wants to look into before considering F2P.

The team is currently working on a fix for cases where you enter a Ranked match with less than 10 players in the lobby. As for players that leave in the middle of the game, there are abandonment penalties in place. We mentioned in the Void Edge notes that we will be reactivating the escalating abandon penalties for Ranked and Unranked after we have seen improvements in connection and server stability. This should hopefully help lessen the frequency of leavers.
If you are able to get a screenshot or clip of someone leaving mid-match who you think is throwing, be sure to send a report. You can also find Recently Played With Players under the Add Friends section, and report the usernames through the support portal. Read more

People make mistakes and bad calls particularly lower ranks and less experienced.
With the way match making is in quick match I find myself teamed up with and facing everyone from champion down to copper.
It's pretty pathetic Kicking someone when you're a Plat because someone is a level 100 silver who's played the game less than a month.

This has been a popular suggestion recently. When you say "deliberate TK", do you mean after the TK has been voted that it was intentional? Or just after someone TKs someone in general? I assume you meant after the victim voted it was intentional.
As we have mentioned before, the team is looking more into Vote Kick abuse reports. Read more

Sorry for the late reply! This FAQ explains that you need to buy the DLC on the same launcher you own the base game on or else there could be potential issue transferring content.

I don't see any downsides to ADAD rotations since that makes new players also pratice each side more often instead of regular crushing matches that are 2-0, i understand these are not meant for ranked and fully agree with letting ranked be a different thing, i never asked ranked to be adjusted to my wishes so why can ranked players dictate how casual should be for themselves when they want to play ranked only?

I definitely understand how you could feel this way. I think some people would agree and say that they feel that the approach to align competitive and casual is too one-sided. But as I had mentioned, the goal is to prepare players for Ranked if they so chose to play it, which does mean bringing some slight elements into Quick Match. I believe the House rework will be an example of preserving the casual feel. Read more

Hey everyone. The team and I have been monitoring this thread for the past few days now. I understand a bulk of you have been part of the R6 community for quite some time and are very passionate about the original R6 games. We acknowledge your efforts to share your love and frustrations around the R6 series. Siege has drastically evolved to something much larger than what the team imagined back in Alpha.
I know many of you are nostalgic for the older version of the game from Year 1. However, we believe the changes we’ve made in the past, and current changes, have been better suited for current gameplay requests from the overall community. Siege certainly would not be where it is today without previous decisions as well as community support, and the team does recognize that. We are still documenting ongoing discussions around these topics and sending them to the development team for visibility. Currently, the overall goal for Siege is to align competitive and casual players. W... Read more

Thanks for the suggestions Botmav2! Have you looked at the Y5S1 Designer Notes yet? The team has made some adjustments to Warden's gadget. We mention in our designer notes that Warden is currently not in a state where we want him to be.
Why do you think the R4C would be best for Warden's kit?

As Astor mentioned, we normally post maintenance notifications on the R6 Twitter!

That is normal. You no longer get the original 20 operators with any edition of Siege. You should only have access to Recruit with the Standard edition.
