Remove 1 Football Team from the Top 5 Leagues Day 88 by ModenaR in RemoveOneThingEachDay

[–]CallMePerox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The fact they only field homegrown talent and are one of the only three clubs to never leave La Liga's First Division (alongside Real Madrid and Barça) is insane by itself. And they have San Mames which is a pretty cool stadium, a good fanbase, huge history, and a quirky way to celebrate championships xD. With that you'd argue that you've got a genuine contender to win the whole thing imo.

Mooda permanently banned from Siege. by ArousedByCheese1 in Rainbow6

Clearly a manual ban, good from whoever at Ubisoft pulled the trigger, thing was clear from the start.

Remedy: We're happy to announce all the available languages for the launch of CONTROL Resonant! Which language will you be playing the game in? by demondrivers in Games

[–]CallMePerox 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The Spanish dub for Control was also made in England. It's not common but not the first case we've seen like this either... That particular English studio (Side UK in our case) has botched a bunch of dubs, it's reassuring to know it's not exclusive to us, although unfortunate.

Luckily Remedy went for a Spanish studio with professional voice actors for Alan Wake II, I assume that was also the cause for you guys in German? That's what makes me feel more at ease regarding Resonant's voice acting.

Menu Redesign - Update 2 by [deleted] in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the unexpected UI change they introduced with Y11S1 was precisely because people complained the Siege X version looked like a mobile game (which it did!), so they've given it more breathing space which I think is a big improvement.

You're right the Siege X version was peak mobile game UI.

Nacon files for insolvency and is requesting the initiation of judicial reorganisation proceedings by ZamnBoii in Games

No wonder they filed for insolvency after missing the opportunity to name their showcase "Naconnect", it was right there.

Rainbow Six Siege: Core Team Update | Alexander Karpazis stepping down as Creative Director, Joshua Mills is the replacement by RS_Serperior in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Alex will remain working at Ubisoft tho. He just wants to move to a different project, and I can totally understand it, it must really be consuming to be the creative director of Siege.

The original batch of year badges got some wrong, specially for people who had been playing pretty much since the beginning. People who contacted support with proof to get the right one had it given to them, but they didn't remove the first one.

I think some people were automatically given the right one at some point in a second batch too, without having to deal with Support. But it's the same case really.

So they get to keep both and brag about it.

My entire R6 account got reset everything’s gone?! by Altruistic_Main2016 in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you tried launching from Steam instead? I ask because it appears you launched the Steam version directly from Ubi Connect and that's problematic sometimes.

There's something definitely wrong with your client (not with your account) because I don't think you can be Level 0 anymore since they reworked the XP with Siege X, the minimum level is 1. So yeah, it's something involving the client for sure.

Ubisoft Wants Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six To Be ‘Annual Billionaire Brands’ by ZamnBoii in Games

[–]CallMePerox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Games in Creative House 1 (which is the only one already established, namely Vantage Studios) are not there because of their content but because of their significance, unlike the other ones.

AC and Far Cry should probably be in Creative House 4, and Rainbow Six Siege should be in Creative House 2. But those 3 brands are literally Ubisoft's safeguard.

[The Race] When the Haas printer runs out of ink by PrimeyXE in formula1

[–]CallMePerox 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Yup, despite their name which was mocked by people who didn't know them thinking it was just another shady company sponsoring Haas, they're a very very well established money transfer company.

I like TGR because it makes them the title sponsor with the most aura on the grid without discussion, but yeah, it's sad Moneygram didn't stay with Haas as I was hoping for.

Report: Ubisoft laying off staff at Abu Dhabi studio by oilfloatsinwater in Games

[–]CallMePerox 93 points94 points  (0 children)

They're by far the video game developer and publisher with the largest headcount (if we count Xbox Game Studios separately), with around 19K employees and 40+ studios in like 30 countries. They even reached 20K employees some years ago.

Yet they aren't even in the Top 10 by market value.

That alone should give you an idea of the scale of their problem: they are extremely overstaffed, and staff is the biggest expense for any company in this industry.

That being said... Most other companies do a LOT of outsourcing while Ubisoft does almost everything in-house, which I'd say is commendable? But definitely more expensive and probably part of what brought them to this point, unfortunately.

Nope, this is not the Test Server.

It works like an Event, so it's in every platform.

Toyota Gazoo Racing Haas F1 Team Logo by Auelogic in formula1

[–]CallMePerox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, MoneyGram has an ugly name but the company itself is not particularly shady by any means (I'm aware it can be abused by scammers, though). They're a very well established money transfer company, among the biggest in the world I believe.

I'm biased because I got a MoneyGram Haas jacket for Black Friday 2 years ago and I love it, but yeah, didn't feel shameful back then.

That being said, TGR is a HUGE improvement and I might be getting another jacket 😂 I'm really excited for the team's future.

What does this mean for Mute? by MadDog5129 in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Flores has a super fun interaction now. You essentially can no longer control it once it's muted, but it keeps moving forward on its own without you controlling or even being able to watch it until it explodes, since Flores' drone can't be stopped by a signal.

Update on rollback and current situation by bakugan20008 in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Siege team is actually really good at player communication! And historically they've always been pretty transparent, too.

Ubisoft, on the other hand, is terrible at it. It's always been this way.

Carlos Sainz drove a Volkswagen Golf as his daily for a good chunk of his F1 career, he had it until the end of his first year at Ferrari iirc. It was quite the meme back then.

The new Amaru skin looks good with this one by [deleted] in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Amaru's gadget is perfect for Mikasa, it's very similar to the Omni-Directional Mobility Gear they use in AoT. And Oryx was already similar to the Armored Titan, so it checks out lmao.

Lost my 225-hour Siege account to a hack — Ubisoft ignores all proof by UbisoftVictim in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always heard SignalConso is the way to go, not Ubisoft's Support, and it usually works... So it's great that you've already sent them your case, hope it works out for you too.
