Rainbow Six: Siege |OT| And so it is, that Ash seeketh Ember Rise

I posted this before but didn't get a response.. trying one last time:
Is there a list of items in Alpha packs somewhere? I know that there are skins that you can't just buy with renown from the shop. I'm approaching 180,000 renown and I'm trying to decide if I should blow it all on alpha packs (50) or just save it and buy all of next years operators with it. There's not a lot that I haven't bought from the shop that I want. I can only think of a few items. It would be nice to look through and see what I could potentially get from alpha packs. Plus I could probably gain renown for the new ops pretty easily.
But if it's going to be most ly garbage, then maybe I don't want to.

I wouldn't waste my renown on them but that's just me. I'd rather buy what I want. Just watch some pack opening videos to see how many commons they get.
Last night i had a game (ranked) where i join and there was no one on the other team, we choose the operators and won the game, easiest game of my life XD
The glitched killcams are starting to get worrisome. Lots of hacking accusations being thrown around on PC. (And probably lots of reports as a result.)
Specifically, when the destruction doesn't update for all players it sometimes looks like wallhacks understandably. At this point, I'm starting to agree that maybe Operation Health 2.0 might not be such a bad idea...

I am not in love with this game as much as I used to be. It's been pissing me the fuck off lately. All these bullshit headshots, mouse & keyboard on console, crouch spam, trolls, unbalanced teams, team killers.... It's terrible lately.
oh yeah, this new shit is so annoying... lost a lot 1 vs 1 because of this.
Crouch spam? This shit:

It's annoying as hell, and most players do it with Ash. Ash's hitbox being like a toothpick isn't enough for them, so they do the next stupid shit to dodge even more bullets.

I'm really enjoying Frost Super 90 on Hereford. Lot's of hatches to play above and certain rooms people tend to come in the same windows every time.
They confirmed the Lion rework will be shown at the Invitational so expect the change at the start of Y4.
I got three kills and two assists with Clash in one round and clutched it 1v2 at the end. It felt great. Top Clash performance so far. The best is when they open the Mira and think they're so smart, and now there's a hard wall between us but I can shock them. Muppets.

I made a thread over the Pro League playlist

Cav getting nerfed and spawn killing is harder?
I may need to re-download the game because Cav and Spawn killing were some of the main reasons I put it down.

Nothing warms my heart right now than seeing Blitz being banned every fucking match right now. God it's so satisfying to see.
There's a special Playlist on the weekend right now where the pick and ban system from pro league is available for everyone to try out. It's great, check it out! Don't forget to redeem the free pro league alpha pack!
Oh shit. I will have to check that out for sure then! Thanks.
I'm going to have to disagree with the positivity on the reddit community and elsewhere regards the Road to Six Invitational Playlist and Challenges.
1. Pick and Ban
Pick and Ban only exists as a contingency because operators are unbalanced or broken.
We shouldn't need to create new meta options by, for instance, banning hard-breachers, shields or roamers. That's not what the game is about.
The Pick and Ban phase causes a minute delay getting into the actual game. I hate it and I don't want it, I want balanced operators and if there are issues, more game mode options, for example, a mode with just the launch operators.
2. Challenges
Games like COD and Fortnite reward players with a steady stream of easy-to-obtain unlocks. Ubi are offering a free loot pack out of a set of 20+ for anyone who completes timed weekend challenges. The first one is to destroy 30x attacker drones as a defender. So you can only grind towards this goal 50% of the time, and you're competing with your fellow defenders for a max of 10 drones per round. The new playlist is structured so you play 3x attack rounds, then 3x defense rounds (or vice versa). I prefer the old alternating structure. But anyways, this means that if you're on Attack you don't get to work towards the challenge for 3x rounds, or 10-15 minutes. In an hour, I played a grand total of 3 defense rounds and snagged 5x drone kills. So, to earn enough for a loot pack I'd need to play for 6 hours. Now I might luck out and start on defense first some matches, but... this is not scratching my brain's reward centre in the same way COD and Fortnite are, it's basically telling me I don't play enough Siege for Ubisoft to consider giving me a pack. It's stingy and manipulative.
3. Loot Packs are back.
Enough with these packs Ubi. Enough.
4. Bugs & Y4
There are some major bugs in the game right now and engagement from the devs about the game's future is at a bare minimum They seem pretty complacent about the direction of content updates and the MTX model.
As someone who played the game since day one, this mode embodies everything I hate about the direction of a game I'm playing less and less, because they're now clearly targetting a different demographic of players. I haven't bought the Y4 pass, and probably just need to accept this game has changed and found a bigger audience, but it's ran out of steam for me.

All well and good. But where do I find a slow tactical PvP shooter on console, now Siege has jumped the shark?
I'd suffer "Black Jesus" and raptor legs just to play with the pace and balance of Black Ice (post Super 90 nerf).
Imagine if Capcom updated Resident Evil 2 to make zombie bite animations shorter, added shortcuts to skip sections, added a gatling to the first item box and just sapped away the atmosphere to tailor the game for speedrunners. And then added loot boxes unlock different RE characters. That's a flawed but demonstrative example of how I feel Ubi are treating Siege with the Pro League / "100 operators" plan, when they've lost sight of the tense, sandbox gameplay that hooked people on the first place. But as long as there are now thousands of kids posting R6 memes, Ubi will continue in this direction.

Same, but just restart your game and when you log in again the pack should be there.
I just want the Ash headgear, got the Dokkaebi uniform.
Honestly wish they'd do more headgear like that for other characters(especially Hibana).

They won't stop doing the loot packs cuz people like me whale for them to get everything without hassle.
Pick and ban is silly. But it is funny to see Ash banned (and then some rage) given how common a pick she is.
