New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on January 19, 2022) follows:
Rainbow Six Siege is a popular tactical first-person shooter that was released back in 2015. Developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft, the video game focuses on tactical cooperative gameplay.
Thanks to Ubisoft frequently pushing new content and making balance changes, the game feels fresh. Having said that, players recently reported that they were losing ELO due to frequent disconnections.
And now, Rainbow Six Siege players are now reporting (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) that their entire squads are experiencing disconnection issues followed by a temporary ban.
Players from all around the world are reporting the issue, making the game unplayable. The bug is annoying many since the penalties stack up with players saying that they are unable to play for hours.
Reinstalling the game and verifying files do not seem to work either.
Fortunately, Rainbow Six Siege developers have acknowledged the squad disconnection and ban issues and said that it is currently under investigation. However, they did not share any ETA on when the servers will be fixed.
As always, we will be keeping an eye out on the matter and update this space when the issue is fixed so make sure you keep checking this space.
