    Hope this game doesn't replace R6

    Some other people or a lot of people are concerned that ubisoft is trying to replace R6 or simply giving it the bare minimum, since people are complaining a lot on how problems aren't being solved until years after or not at all, the fans are asking it to be fixed.
    Yes I know things take time but from I'm hearing it takes years to fix anything
    Short and simple

    Also on a side note I know there is a lot of threads and posts on the R6 forum but do the devs and siege team even look at it anymore,
    Not to be self centered, but I think this would bring back rainbow, I made a post on there if Ubisoft had a fan made operator event, that would take five years or so to do, where if there were 100 (50 attack, 50 defense) operators made by fans and chosen by vote on which operator is most wanted by the community, the operator concepts made by the fans would have to be fully fleshed out, somewhat, where the operator had a good and balanced ability, Loadout, backstory, bio, and at least a good drawn sketch (because not everyone can be a 3d artist) those operators can be implemented into the game

    And I have some ideas, mainly new operator abilities/gadgets, but I do have an rework idea for jackal and I try to balance it out as much as possible and make sense of the ability/gadget


    Me personally don't experience a lot of these problems or just hackers since I'm on PS4

    There was a DEV TEAM AMA of Rainbow Six Siege on July 22nd where the devs replied to a lot of questions about the game and its future. XDefiant will not replace R6 Siege, but I am sure a lot of people who usually focus on Siege will find their place in the XDefiant community. But that doesn't mean they will stop playing it.

    I can only speak for myself and I look much forward to XDefiant, but Siege will always have a special place in my heart and I won't stop playing it cause it was a game changer for me.

    I don't have anything more to add as I think you said it well. R6 is a different game entirely with a different player base. XDefiant definitely won't replace R6.

    this game appears to be more the fast paced action shooter casual shooter to be easy to get in and play a match or two and leave and not the siege esports and competitive only mindset that is meant to be only for those who want be very competitive or want a whole esports scenario instead of actually enjyoing game

    Ok, what I should have said is that (I know this game is new and ubisoft is excited to work on it) hopefully ubisoft just doesn't give it the bare minimum, and does some work to keep it alive

    And if you can see my ideas that would be great, not much of them, and I'm looking for as much feedback as possible

    Different development teams. This is being developed by Ubisoft San Francisco and R6 is Ubisoft Montreal. At the very least I can't imagine any resources being pulled away from siege for the sake of this project.
