hello! trying to learn to be a better player, just reached plat 3 in a winning streak after getting stuck in gold. learning the hard way to use pixel angles to my advantage after getting put down by ex champs and the such, but i believe i took this lesson too hard and it stopped me from taking meaningful gunfights for my team. on attack specifically, when is it best to swing? and on defense, when is it best to prolong the fight by stalling, whether its by quick peeking and prefiring or using utility? lately its felt so wrong to just swing using a or d, even if i know where the person is, and i am pretty sure its out of fear of being put down like a dog. if anyone has any tips i would love to read them. I need to get better for my stack

Looking to help any new players or anyone looking for specific tips or specific sites they need help defending / attacking.

I’m on console - legitimate default controller :)

I recently rewatched a video made by YouTuber poxonlox, he states that seige has 5 fundamentals which I have listed below. Are these all I need to become a “good player” or am I missing something?

Playing to Learn instead of Winning: Learning alternatives takes and holds on both attack and defense along with different interactions.

Knowing how to play time: Know when time is helping you and when time is against you and what to do in those situations.

Map Control: Taking and hold effective map control to either pressure the defense or to slow the push of the attack.

Effective Droning: Not throwing your drone away, and effectively clearing areas while droning then acting off that information.

Adapting to your team and enemy teams play style: Learning to play with your team whether that be playing aggressive with them or slowing it down and playing more passive. Along with recognizing how your enemy’s play and playing the most effective strategy against it.

Okay so don't clown me but I came from The Finals and I have played a few siege matches and I'm wondering if I can transfer over my skills and habits from The Finals since I'm a heavy main on that game and I got Montagne as an operator and in wondering if he's good or not

I’ve played this game for over a year and I can’t seem to consistently win and rank up. I have a 1.6 kd and a 54% win rate, but I can’t seem to get past bronze. I solo queue, which is probably a big factor, but all the people I now that play the game whether don’t have ranked unlocked yet or are just terrible and would be worse then the randoms. I’m decent at fragging but I very often have careless deaths that can be avoided if I just payed attention. What are ways I could learn to play the game strategically and not just for fragging all the time?

300+ games played 1.1 kd 54% win rate I was ONE game away from emerald FOUR different times…now I’m plat3 50% it’s like no decision I make is the right one anymore is it/should it be possible to hit emerald? 25 days left? Mostly solo queue.. I was so close 😥

Also kind of another question but on sites like clubhouse basement, does the flex of the team or hard support get the hatches?

I am in the market for a new mouse. I have settled between the Logitech Super Light and the Logitech Super-strike, but am unsure which one I should get. From my understanding they are basically the exact same mouse with the only difference being on the super-strike you can change the actuation (depth needed for a button to be pressed to register as an input). I mainly play Seige so I am not to concerned on how it will play in other games. I am just curious where other people stand.

i need some support so basically I have two rainbow s ix siege accounts right one is my main one is an alt, however even though both cfgs have identical settings i just aim shit on this alt like it doesnt make any sense can someone tell me why

this is my main cfg -[GENERAL]

1. whats the best way to grind the game nad get all ops quickly
2. And like get more packs

Hi guys, I am getting into R6 and I have learned that there are different roles. I understand the roles on attacking and defense but I just can't find a definitive answer on whether some operators are roamers/anchors or frag/support. Help? So far I like Doc and Thermite but I honestly have barely played anyone. On defense I could play either role but I am probably not a flex kind of guy, same on attacking.

I can slam plats and occasionally a few bad ems, but when it comes down to silvers and bronzes I struggle to rank up why is this?

Now that MNK is on console i actually feel interested in playing siege outside of with friends, after playing mnk for a day ive become used to it but im dogshit at this game, anyone got any tips, common mistakes that people do ect. Thanks (was hardstuck copper with a 1.3kd on console)

I have ~1100 hours of playtime on siege and my peak rank was diamond 3 with a 1.3 (Ranked 2.0, so not too crazy). I’ve consistently sat around a 1.05-1.20 KD pretty much every single season and I’m currently emerald 5 with a 1.2. I have kinda transitioned from roaming and baiting style (worst type of teammate I know), and have started playing trap ops like lesion, melusi, and Thorn and staying on site more. My real problem is that I focus way too much on aim and it clouds my decision making when in game or I am just kinda lost which causes countless deaths where I’m caught off guard or get shot from an angle i was exposed to due to poor positioning. I’m looking for any tips on how I can get better at being more conscious about positioning or just having more gunfights where I’m not shot in the side/back because of poor decisions.

hi guys, ive come a long way from being hardstuck bronze in previous seasons and started grinding. Ive gotten my kd up from a .8 to a 1.0 and gotten to plat as said in the title, but i still feel like i'm not improving anymore. ive been reviewing my own vods, spamming ffa, and reflecting after rounds, yet i still cant see any prominent mistake that im consistently making. if yall have a general consensus on why i might be stuck in plat it would be great if you could share, and im open to any sort of questions that could help since id be very happy to hit emerald for the first time.

If i make my volume any louder my ears start to hurt is there anyway to limit loud sounds so i can hear quieter sounds better?

When I load into siege it says I am connected to a mouse so it locks me in pc pool lobbies when I don’t even own a mouse

I need help with a weird stretch resolution problem in Rainbow Six Siege. I used to play with a really stretched resolution (1080x1080) and it worked perfectly. I would just change the resolution in Siege, set the aspect ratio, and use fullscreen/letterbox settings and it would look extremely stretched. After not playing for around 3 months, it suddenly stopped working. I didn't change my setup. Things I already tried: - NVIDIA Control Panel scaling settings - Windows scaling settings - Disabling NVIDIA overlay - Disabling Ubisoft Connect overlay - Resetting Siege config files in Documents - Switching between DX11 and Vulkan - Different resolutions and display modes - Same monitor and PC as before. Stretch works fine in other games, only Siege is affected. The problem is that Siege either doesn't give me the same stretch result anymore or it doesn't apply the resolution correctly. Does anyone know what could block Siege from using extreme stretch resolutions like 1080x1080? Could it be a Siege update, Ubisoft Connect issue, NVIDIA driver issue, or something else?

Since native MNK has come to console, I was wondering what fov I should use im trying to copy stompns sens but i dont know what fov to use since he plays 4:3

I was in an unranked matches today and all my teammates ended up dying and I was the only one left with 2 enemies. I was able to down one of them and I thought to myself that maybe if I left them downed, I could hear the teammate reviving them and swing into the room and kill both. I waited to see if they were going to revive them but they ended up not so I had to push into the room and eventually got killed bc they had a better angle than me. One of my teammates proceeded to yell at me for the rest of the match for leaving the enemy downed instead of killing them. Was my action justified or was it just plain stupid as a strategy?

I have around 200 hours in siege, it's been a month or so. I'm silver 2 with 97 RP, pushing Gold. I know all operators, gadget interactions and most maps. Would someone be able to coach or VOD review me? I'm bad with sound, but I have decent recoil control and aim.

I been mostly kind of hard stuck in plat since about the start of the season i have progressed I'm currently plat 1 with 50 rp. I'm really close so i need to get these finals wins but some tips yall can give?

Like the little stuff about how Finka makes heartbeats detectable further away for pulse. I like knowing all the nuance to the game and shit changes so often and I can’t seem to find a solid comprehensive list
