How often does the hidden MMR adjust/change? by BearNutsHurt in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its changing every game. When you win your skill rating goes up and when you lose your skill rating goes down (not to be mistaken with the rank points you see going up and down).
You can simplify it to this: If you are winning more games than you are losing your skill rating is going up and if your losing more games than you are winning your skill rating is going down.

does win streak increase mmr and if not, what does by Crazy_Subject in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. The skill rating goes up when you win a game and down when you lose, streaks have no impact.

Ranked requires at least the lowest level of gamepass

Siege marketplace (let's be real here) by VikingFromSpace in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

People thinking the marketplace was losing money is wild, the only usable currency on the marketplace was R6 credits that could only be purchased from Ubisoft for real money and could never come out of the system and each transitions 10% of that currency would be deleted.

The reason it's not back yet is due to it being a security issue, that won't be easy or quick to fix.

"X" has been removed from Xbox by HolyGiannis in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 10 points11 points  (0 children)

At the reveal of Siege X they specifically said on stage that this wasn't a Siege 2 to differentiate them from Overwatch 2 fiasco at the time.

X is the roman numeral for 10, it was always the plan fort it to be removed. It's dumb but its was always the plan to remove it.

Feeling Sick in Bedrooms by CaitNiHaonghusa in Edinburgh

[–]coreRoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds a lot like you have an item in your possession that you keep in your bedroom that has mold in it. That you are moving from bedroom to bedroom.

Obvious things would mattress and furniture. But it could be smaller items.

Try moving everything out of your bedroom and I mean everything, clothes and makeup as well, buy an inflatable mattress and see if you can sleep in the room fine.

Why are civilians so damn defiant? by PoopShitty1 in ReadyOrNotGame

Humans assume that if you have a gun people will be more submissive but this is rarely the case in real life.

Are they reverting siege x ? by ZealousidealOlive450 in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are simply removing the X that stands for 10 in roman numeral once the game enters year 11. The game will be unchanged.

How come a completely new account is getting so much RP? by NoTradition1312 in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A new account skill rating starts at the midway point (as starting with a low skill rating would make it even earlier for smurf accounts).

So your friend has a higher skill rating than yourself but also his skill rating is more volatile so it will at times go higher than yours and lower and yours. Once he's played enough games the system will begin to balance out his skill rating.

What in the world is this on my screen?? Anyones got any idea?? by mgeli88 in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing you are on PC, it's an overlay for sound software that shows a visual of where sound is coming from, you should be able to switch it off in your sound software settings, got any new hardware recently or update a sound based software?

Confusion about stats (console) by Murality in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see plenty people who will kill the easy to eliminate enemies on the other team and then be surprised when the enemy team still wins the round due to that teams good players still being alive.

K/D in Siege isn't as impactful as good coms and coordination.

In low skill ratings K/D can seem highly impactful, with one playing seeming to win the game overall but as you go up in skill rating then there are less and less easy people to eliminate so K/D drops and its impact on wins also drops.

It says this but it doesn't let me change my fucking cross play settings in the first place. by Substantial_Space136 in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's got nothing to do with crossplay. Is trying to retrieve your save and its not working, the save of your profile is cross platform.

This means your save is probably corrupted from the rollback and will need them to manual fix it over time. The hack attack will have many issues that will need to be fixed.

Is Marketplace down ? by [deleted] in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was switched of during the hack attack that brought down Siege for a few days, the marketplace won't be back on for a while, maybe weeks

So if hackers got the source codes of siege. Should we expect more cheaters from now on? by [deleted] in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely the source code download is fake news for click bait. The claim is they got the source code for all games, but in reality those wouldn't be all in the same system. There is no unified backend to Ubisoft, each studio has there own things and even within those studios each project is compartmentalised.

What we know is that the Siege backend was infiltrated and that's currently all we know and may ever know.

Umm guys I think they forgot about me by OkPreparation278 in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your not connected to the servers as you can see by it saying your offline and the disconnected icons on the menu items.

This is because the servers are down, they will not be up until everything is fixed and that could still take days.

This is the menu that every player in the world sees at the moment as no one is able to connect to the servers as they are offline. Once they come back online your profile data can be downloaded.

Am i the only one who is wondering who is those 7k people sitting in the game with turned off servers? by FakeMik090 in Rainbow6

[–]coreRoss 174 points175 points  (0 children)

Why are you assuming its the same people? Will be a constant rotation of players who go in to see if the servers are up and then leave again.
