Who likes cheaters? No one, right? Even cheaters don’t like fellow cheaters. If you’re a Rainbow Six Siege player, and you’ve encountered the Rainbow Six Siege chat glitch or exploit that players use to crash games, then rejoice! Ubisoft has acted on it, and bans are coming!
Over on the Rainbow Six subreddit, Ubisoft has announced that a Rainbow Six Siege chat glitch fix has been deployed, and that a “ban wave” is coming!
We have now deployed the fix for the chat symbol exploit.
Beginning tomorrow, we will initiate a ban wave in accordance with the following section from the Code of Conduct.
FORBIDDEN CONDUCT:
The following actions violate the Code of Conduct, and can lead to disciplinary action in accordance with the Disciplinary Policy outlined below.
Any conduct which interrupts the general flow of Gameplay in the Game client, forum, or any other Ubisoft medium.
These bans are targeting players that abused the chat symbol exploit to crash matches. They will have varying lengths, depending on the frequency and severity of the exploit’s usage.
This is our next step towards sanctioning players that knowingly and deliberately take advantage of exploits to the detriment of the overall match.
This is definitely a good move, and if you’re one of the exploiters affected, please don’t message Ubisoft to complain, alright?
