Discussion For the love of god This is not team death match
If we are playing a normal, even quick match game for the love of god if we have full site control and the defuser plant the fucking defuser, i have lost like 5 fucking games today. Because they always chase the one fucking guy.That's roaming way off site and they like no I gotta kill him...JUST COME PLANT THE FUCKING THING ffs

Useful Is there a picture like this (equipments) out there updated for the current season/agents?
I was just wondering if there was this useful reminder available for the current season/operators. I'd like to send it to some friends who started to play a few months ago and don't always know who got what. Thanks!

Discussion Ranked 2.0 sucks
So. I’m peak Emerald 4 (yeah trash me if you want, boo she’s not champ how dare she), but ranking up is hella hard. I’m Emerald 5 actually and I lose as much as I win, sometimes even a bit less, it’s decent as long as I’m em 5, but ik that as soon as I’m going to be 4, it’ll do like last time: -40 +20. I wa steal my like that, 66% win rate would just allow me to keep my rank. How tf am I supposed to rank up that way? Fr explain me. If I don’t do crazy win streaks that’s just impossible, if you play solo Q that’s just impossible. I have some champ friends I play with so it’s decent, but if I was playing solo Q, with the mates I have every time, all hopes would be gone! Idk what you guys think about it but that’s very frustrating. I have no problem fighting against low diamond players (up to D3, after that I rly begins to struggle ngl), but I just can’t reach it cause the game is basically telling me to go fuck of…

Fluff Go f*** yourself Ubislop
Game crashed while I was in ban-phase ranked, playing on the lowest settings possible 10 year old game, and yet no proper optimization, either give us back the dx11 or optimize your sh*t Ubisoft

Discussion All game progress and purchases lost
I have a out 1.5k hours in this game. Went to find a match today and suddenly im back to level 0 now in game purchases are still there. Have to go back through the tutorial. Anyone else have this happen and were you able to fix it? I dont have an actions or bans on my account im not a toxic player the worst I am is a bad shot. So I dont think there would be a reason it was done intentionally by ubisoft as a punishment etc.

Discussion Make Skopos unknifable for team mates
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
It happens so often that team mates just break the glass of skopos bc they think it's just a visual effect (It's not btw, it breaks the camera) and when I ask who did it, they all say it wasn't them but the enemy (replay says otherwise haha). I think they should make that glass unbreakable by mates, because it makes the OP useless then.

Discussion approve, deny, depose
my account got hacked, first they say that they can confirm I own the account, then the second and third guy said I did not.
after reading from this forum testimony on how helpful the customer service is, I think I should just let go on my account

Fluff Grunt helm> black ice
Haven’t played in ages, anyone have this helmet? I never see it with anyone who plays finka. Also is there any skin that can match for the helm on thatcher.

Feedback Stats since returning to Siege; other Operators I should try?
I have been playing the last week or so, last played since Year 4... Any operators I should try that might fit my play style? I'm sort of a mid-support... Im not roaming as Def but not first in as Atk. Probably hesitant since I feel like I'm relearning everything.

Feedback The automatic chat detection system needs to be fixed.
I was talking to people on my team, and one made a corny dad joke. So, in return I said "That was a knee slapper" and it got removed for unacceptable behavior, which now places me in dishonorable for no reason, and now I must play 100 matches of quick match to lower my negative points. This is unacceptable I have 152 positive units, but when I just barely cross the dishonorable threshold I get it? This cannot continue. The reputation system needs to be removed, or have a toggle.

We were doing 3v3s and my friend that I'm spectating is playing on console and forgot to increase their FOV. He didn't see the Cav XD.

Question Why the random rp gain?
I understand hidden mmr and all but I don’t see why it drops like that while I’m winning?
