Crossplay might actually stop the amount of smurf accounts
r6 siege community is still one of the most toxic ones out there

They need to enable aim assist on the console if they want to have console PC crossplay. They need to fix the game improve battle pass progression It’s currently garbage totally based on wins when it should just be time based with wins making a small contribution to progress, they need to fix the matchmaking, the cheating, stop going down the Overwatch route and completely catering to pro league(which nobody cares about) with nerfs and it just irritates the majority of casual players, fix solo queuing, fix the speed of the matches. I have no faith in new team running the game they don’t know what they are doing, I still like it but my play time has decreased massively.

Yep, stopped playing due to the player attitude.

Doubt.... Of the multiple 100's of hours I've played I've only ran into cheating a handful of times. It's VASTLY overestimated. And smurfs happen EVERYWHERE, it's not a PC problem in even the slightest amount. People that suck will just call everyone a cheater....

Glad to see it going cross-plat. Game has a pretty healthy community on every platform as far as I'm aware, but it's always a nice feature to play with buddies on different platforms. Hope they get the consoles coming too. I really hope the new R6:Quarantine supports it as well.

Biggest downfall to PC gaming though console gaming is becoming more and more corrupted with cheating devices

Decent game but it's not what made the first few Rainbow Six games good. Time to move on from this shit IMO.
Meanwhile y'all shit on Fallout 76 and it has one of the best communities in any game.

These have existed in one form or another for a VERY long time. Cheating is even easier on consoles as you are less likely to get caught using an input device on consoles than you are to get caught using some kind of trainer for the PC.

This. People just aren't good at basic probability.
1) I get points refunded to me once every 10 or 20 games. This means the likelihood of meeting a cheater is pretty low. If you don't get this then you should never set foot in a casino.
2) Siege uses the rank you were in the previous season to help place you in games at the start of the next season. So the cheaters that managed to escape a ban are still paired up with their equals (Diamond and above). New cheaters will win their first 10 placement games and automatically get placed in plat so at most they have the opportunity to disrupt 10 low level games.
Yes it is a genuine problem at Diamond and Champion levels. Most kids aren't anywhere near this level but would like to think they are. High level players have every reason to complain but as you said, a lot of complaints are just from people who have simply lost a gun fight.

100% even back when Mike Ybarra was still with Xbox I asked him about those StrikePack FPS Dominators with the paid cheating mod service and he even said Xbox would never take a stand against those devices it was up to each games Devs.
Also told me those Devs knew those devices were abusing their games but doubted anyone would ever ban those devices.

Good, so Xbox is fine with cheats, same with devs.
Personally I was happy with The Crew 2 learning from the cheat fucks on PC and pushing them out from the leaderboard and only having separate communities. Even though I wasn't too competitive but been so in most events in day one and skipping the grind because all I mostly wanted are the free DLC cars after each event.
So yes, most console gamers don't wanna play with PC. If there are some cheaters on consoles they're easier to control and ban by the platform holder instead of going through all the hassle with PC players.
On a side note I remember this long race many were bitching about in The Crew forum - Ubisoft asking them to nerf the NPC, while comfortably posting this laughable margin I get between me and NPC near the end and they get triggered.
Those are extremely long races across the country, which is equivalent of around 150km by 50km map in real life.

Siege is the last game I’d want to play against PC players with cross play. If true, I hope you can disable it. It would be nice if they let you keep progression and cosmetics across platforms too.

Been a console player my entire life, owned every console since the NES and I've ALWAYS wanted cross-play. I remember wanting to challenge myself against PC players when I first played Unreal Championship on Xbox. Granted, I'm sure my overconfidence would have gotten me smashed, but I really wanted to try.

It's easier to cheat on console, as well as easier to evade bans. PC anti cheat software is constantly taking ppl down, left and right. While those non recoil, rapidfire, etc devices never seem to get taken down on console. Even reporting these guys never seems to do anything.
But either way, this is about x-play with cloud devices, not consoles.

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
Mouse and kb is overvalued you can be more aggressive yes but mistakes are on the player not the equipment.

I play siege on both console and PC. The average players on PC will wipe the floor with the best consoles have to offer. Good luck though.

O, I know this. I'm primarily a PC player. I was just saying that as a kid, I wanted the option of trying. I'd rather have the option and not use it than have it decided for me.

Yeah just make it opt out by default.

That's what I don't get with people that are so anti-crossplay. As long as it's opt-out by default and you can stay in your own tribe if you so choose, why wouldn't you WANT the option to choose. Why would you want someone to choose for you if it makes no difference to how you'll play anyways?
