Rainbow Six Siege Updates

Yeah a few bugs they have picked up on in this update are what personally I wanted to see change.
In all honesty this game has the hard foundations of a great game so if it means waiting a while for the updates then so be it.It speaks well for the updates coming that they are using the PC platform to test them and make sure its right for us console users.

I completely agree. As it takes time for it to pass inspection of Xbox so it can be released. Test it out on PC and get it right the first time for us.

Plus the dlc being put back to the 2nd of February means I get a bit longer to come up with the 💵
Still enjoy playing it now but so many more improvements could take it to the next level,im just glad that they are recognising that the problems are there unlike other developers have in the past

HIT REGISTRATION IMPROVEMENTS
Updated the server tick rate for all PC users, coming soon to consoles
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). This change however has been done in an intermittent fashion and in certain regions only, as we were testing various configurations. We are now satisfied with its state so we are now deploying this update to all PC users. As soon as this feature has been validated with this more massive test on PC, we will be deploying this update on consoles as soon as possible

Refining the quality of PVP matches with more evenly matched opponents
- Added a criteria that increases the odds of pre-made parties being matched against a squad with an equal number of pre-made parties within them.
- Skill criterion originating from the player’s region is now more precise.

Improved connectivity to PVP and PVE matches
- Increased match quality by ensuring players using the same data center get matched together, leading to better ping.
- Improved accuracy of the estimated waiting time while in lobby.
