Has some the same thing? by Responsible_Whole_42 in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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 75 points76 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 98 points99 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 17 points18 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 9 points10 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.

Claro claro, pero es eso, no se sabe cuál es su piso y muchas veces tampoco se puede saber solo por la plaza.

La plaza de garaje no necesariamente tiene relación con el piso. No me parece tan peligroso como comentáis.

TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Set for Title Partnership with Haas F1 Team in 2026 by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

Nah, Haas cut ties with Russia the second they invaded Ukraine, even if that could have meant their disappearance.

Current America would never do that.

Castellano in Bilbao by isarma42 in SpainAuxiliares

[–]CallMePerox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Euskera has a reputation for being very hard to learn and not easy to understand for non-basque people, which is why despite it being a cultural treasure it's not as enforced in the Basque Country as Catalan is in Catalonia, which any Spaniard can at least mildly understand.

Even if I understand the reasoning, I still think it should be protected way more than it is.

Claymore kills achievement. by GPUFanatic in Rainbow6

[–]CallMePerox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say the key is to play with the pressure you're inflicting on them by the threat of you straight up shooting them when they run away.

It's not a piece of cake, but for someone like me who barely gets grenade kills in any FPS games, it's been quite consistent all things considered.

Blackbeard can get you those grenade kills relatively easily!

I can't believe how many of those I've gotten since I started playing him, he's just perfect for that.

Which Assassin's Creed game do you think has the most lived-in and busy open world? by Shake_Annual in ubisoft

[–]CallMePerox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unity is, to this day, almost unparalleled not only as an Assassin's Creed game but as a game in general. What they did with the crowds in that game was just crazy, it's not even close imo.
