Rainbow Six Siege X Will be the Next Concord If Ubisoft Doesn’t Abandon 1 Horrendous Practice

Rainbow Six Siege X going free-to-play is good news; however, will it be viable for Ubisoft? It’s not like it’s a bad game and can’t compete in the free-to-play market. Rather, the problem is Ubisoft developers themselves, who can hamper the success of their shooter.

Anyone who has played Rainbow Six Siege previously knows how horrendous the development has been, while it was a paid game. The level of bugs and hacker infestation led to it losing many players before. Freemium games have done much better if brought into consideration. They shouldn’t repeat their past, or it’ll cost dearly.

Rainbow Six Siege X developers pose a great threat to the success of the free-to-play title

Before getting into the dark side of Rainbow Six Siege, let’s talk about the good days that led to its success. The shooter title was initially one of the best tactical experiences anyone could have. It had decent new additions and events that kept folks captivated.

Moreover, developers cared about the whole community and listened to their feedback for improving the game. They even dedicated an entire season (Operation Health) to fix the game because they wanted to keep the fanbase happy. The amount of care made the community strong and led to a gain in player base.

They are seemingly doing the same with the release of Rainbow Six Siege X. However, there is a graveyard of mistakes that has completely erased players’ trust. There have been many instances where they didn’t deliver what they proposed. Additionally, they’ve misguided players with their promises.

They have huge plans with Rainbow Six Siege X, and the roadmap is full of it. However, their past doesn’t allow the community to trust them fully. Because most of the time, the delivered product was either buggy, created issues for existing mechanics, or broke their promise mid-year.

Ubisoft developers cannot be trusted fully

Since Rainbow Six Siege X will be a free-to-play game, any bug or brain-dead changes will push players away. If a bug is found, most freemium developers are quick about hot fixing it, but Ubisoft takes a lot of time. Think of it: The crossplay feature was brought out nine years later. Being prompt has been a Ubisoft problem for a long time. I hope it isn’t repeated.

It all started to fall apart somewhere around Year 4 of Rainbow Six Siege. Why? Because the game was getting very buggy, with broken hit registration and many cheating issues. This is something Siege has been tackling for a long time now. Still, it was breathable, due to all the great events and operators it brought.

The main issues started with Year 7, when Ubisoft started favoring the decisions of Pro League players rather than the regular community. They made left and right changes, even though it was okay for every single player. This set an image that the developers only cared about their Pro League community and not the majority.

Furthermore, Ubisoft repeated limited events introduced during Years 4 and 5. This further angered the community, and everyone lost faith in them. The amount of negligence players faced is immeasurable, even though it was a paid game.

Almost forgot the cherry on top, crossplay delay. The developers first introduced the idea of crossplay back in Year 7, and they promised to launch it by the end of the year. However, it was misleading, as the crossplay feature was limited as it only allowed for inter-console. The full feature that includes PC took two years and was finally released with Operation Collision Point(Y9S4).

What do you think? Will Rainbow Six Siege X redeem itself on its tenth anniversary? Do you think Ubisoft will remain the same or be worse than before since it’s free now? Let us know in the comments below.
