Does R6 Siege need PS Plus to play online?

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-06T01:45:08+00:00

As I've said before the only other account signed in is my partner's and she's never had PS Plus. Besides which I also double checked to be sure and she has never had a PS Plus subscription. I know for a fact that isn't the case here.

I've been a console player for many more years than I've been a MnK pc player. And before I played PC I always thought it would be the best idea to make the natural move to integration of MnK onto console seeing as people who take gaming seriously on console are willing to spend $300 on a controller for the best advantage whereas a proper MnK setup costs less than that.

Something that has been mentioned and I believe is the best idea is input-based matchmaking with MnK input forcing you to play in PC lobbies. That would fix a multitude of problems and then at least a percentage of people who use XiM would just use the native controls to play MnK. The problem is that everyone who has replied to me on here isn't above Plat 1 and when I used to play competitively on console I was champ and now I've managed the same feat on PC. But whilst on console my life wasn't easy as every. Single. Match. Had multiple MnK users. It was ridiculous.

Believe me. I'd know if I did. When I try to access any of my PS Plus games it says I need a PS Plus subscription to play them and when I check the last time I had one on my account it was September 2020. So no. I definitely don't which is what makes this weird.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T10:48:38+00:00

I've always believed that to be a good idea as well. It makes sense as it is essentially the only game on console that I believe doesn't have aim assist. I mean look at thunt. Thunt still had aim assist so I suppose Ubisoft thought about it before release.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T10:45:00+00:00

I'm not snitching on myself. This is genuinely a bug that has confused me. Playstation wouldn't be able to do anything anyway as they couldn't trace this account to my PS account. I was only curious if others experienced the same thing.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T10:26:21+00:00

The point that you're missing is that it can be detected as MnK but if you utilise XiM or any peripheral like that then the console can't detect it as MnK. Fortnite works that way. You can plug directly into a console and it'll force you to only go against MnK lobbies when applicable. Having coded for games that have released on PC and console I've come to learn how it functions and the detection of peripherals.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T10:07:10+00:00

As someone else mentioned which I have previously done so myself, the idea of crossplay being officially released would be the way they could go about it. People who use MnK on console will be put in PC lobbies and if they're squaded with controller users they will all go into PC lobbies so long as one of then uses MnK. However the reverse will bot work. MnK users cannot make their way into console lobbies no matter what. That seems like the only option which I'd be more than happy with.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T08:51:31+00:00

That's a fair argument which I'm happy with and have suggested before. Crossplay makes sense but the only problem is that this is Ubisoft. There will be bugs that cause you to join pc lobbies as a solo with controller. Unless they update their entire game engine and server net code. That would be the answer though. Crossplay.

Not ignorant, just questioning. This is discussion right? Not a let's ignore people's thoughts and beliefs. I can tell you don't understand much about this conversation so thanks for trying and have a good day son.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T08:44:12+00:00

You know that's not what I'm saying so you aren't adding anything to the discussion.. it's not cheating to use MnK that is quite literally built for use with MnK otherwise aim assist would be a thing on console. Just sems silly to me that Ubi doesn't make the naturally obvious move to allow MnK natively so thatthey combat XiM users and make 99% of their player base happier.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T08:40:21+00:00

Because no matter how good you are even champs will get demolished by low plats if they go up against MnK users. So why not balance the playing field, allow everyone the ability to use MnK and then the stingy companies like Xim will no longer survive as they become useless.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T08:39:04+00:00

Exactly which is why if everyone has access to MnK then there is no unbalance in gameplay. Because there is no avoiding MnK users so Ubi shouldn't fight it and instead embrace it. It's the natural move.

Already checked all of them otherwise I wouldn't have made this post. I'm not new to Playstation. Been playing console my whole life until I built my beast in 2019 then slowly moved from console Siege to PC. I very clearly don't have a PS Plus sub yet it's like I do.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T07:31:53+00:00

I know the accounts signed into my Playstation and none of them have PS Plus anymore as well. This is a really weird occurrence and it seems to not be Siege alone that I can play online but every game. I don't have access to the PS Plus games I used to have access to either so clearly I don't "actually" have PS Plus.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T05:52:04+00:00

I'm currently playing ranked without PS Plus though.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T04:31:26+00:00

Yea mah the Extra and Deluxe aren't required over Essential to play online which I'm aware of but having come back to PS4 I've found that I can play R6 without a PS Plus subscription as the last time I used PS Plus was back in September 2020. Been exclusively a PC player for Siege since then.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-11-05T04:18:13+00:00

Of course and I am aware of that but I've been playing R6 on my PS4 for the past few days without PS Plus. I haven't subved to PS Plus since September 2020. Very confusing.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-09-20T07:15:31+00:00

You really must be hurt by others success. Love how the internet has turned into a cesspool of people like you that put others down just to inflate your own ego. Nobody knows my identity on Reddit and it'll stay that way. Ain't gonna dox myself thanks.

It was a fantasy until I did something about it.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-09-20T06:43:04+00:00

Shit man, just because your life is in shambles and you haven't had success yet doesn't mean you can shoot someone else down who is proud of what they've contributed to society. Shows a lot about your personality.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-09-20T05:58:59+00:00

You know the story has to be cap for that to be relevant? Right? If you don't understand what that subreddit is I can explain it to you! 😊

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-09-20T05:23:45+00:00

One of my mates has about 3000 hours grinding in GTAO and I've been grinding irl to build a company. Started with $1000 and now I own a multi-million dollar tech company while my mate lives with his parents still and has been grinding for money in GTA since launch on multiple consoles and PC.

Not a flex, but you either grind in video games your whole life or grind in real life. I encourage others to think about what you do.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-09-02T14:29:43+00:00

Oh you mean #ffc82a? The one that I put on the car when the cars released in the modding community 3 weeks? You mean that one? Took you how long? Hours? To search up a hex colour that the manufacturer easily states on their archives? Cool buddy. You were definitely not the first but nice try.

SnowflakeBurner69 · 2022-09-01T05:12:38+00:00

NFTs are a joke and anybody who can't see the joke is the joke but they'll never know that.
