Ubisoft heeft een nieuwe patch klaar staan voor Rainbow Six Siege, hierin wat fixes tegen het cheaten, en een verbetering van de hit registratie. De update komt vandaag naar de PC versie van de game, en de console versie kan de update op de 20ste verwachten.
“This patch will be released on PC first because of the faster deployment process, in order to test the impact the fixes have and adjust if needed,” aldus Ubisoft op het forum van de game.
“A much bigger patch, Patch 2.0, will be released at the same time as Season 1, on February 2. This update will be made available on PC and consoles at the same time.”
De volledige patch lijst vindt je hieronder :
General Tweaks and Improvements
Hit Registration Improvements
- Updated the server tick rate for console users
- With the goal of improving positioning and shooting replication, we had deployed a first update on PC in which the player position update rate is set to 60 times per second (vs. the previous 30). After testing, we are satisfied with its state so we are now deploying this update to all consoles as well.
Anti-Cheating Improvements
- Cheating countermeasures have been improved further.
- Banning policy update: all cheaters detected by the system will be banned permanently. No more three day ban for first offense.
Exploit Fix: Defenders Exiting The Preparation Phase
- Added a configuration that allows us to turn ON an insta-kill configuration for Defenders that go outside their zone during the preparation phase (this behavior should not be possible, but if exploits are found, the guilty shall be punished by a swift death!)
- We will be able to activate this functionality at any time. We will first be testing it on XB1 during the afternoon of January 13 (Montreal time). If it proves effective, we will be deploying this on all platforms later that day.
Top Community Raised Bug Fixes
(Live for PC on Jan. 13, live for consoles on Jan. 20)
Please be aware that this is not an exhaustive list and that we are only highlighting fixes that were done about the most commonly raised community bugs.
Level Design Fixes
- Fixed a bug that allowed players to exit their zone during the preparation phase (red wall). When transitioning from proning to standing position combined with putting up a barricade, players were able to go through walls. We believe this exploit is now solved. Please share your experience in this forum thread if you still encounter it after the patch (information we are looking for listed in opening post).
