Der Taktik-Shooter Rainbow Six: Siege erhält heute ein neues umfangreiches Update, das zahlreiche Änderungen am Spiel vornimmt und alle Services auf dedizierte Server umgestellt werden.
Am heutigen Mittwoch erhält Ubisofts Taktik-Shooter Rainbow Six: Siege ein weiteres Update. Patch 2.2.2 erscheint für PC, PlayStation 4 sowie Xbox One und legt den Grundstein für die kommende Saison in dem Shooter. Via Twitter haben die Verantwortlichen für den heutigen Tag Wartungsarbeiten angekündigt. Während dieser Zeit sind die Server voraussichtlich für rund 30 Minuten nicht verfügbar.
- PC: 16:00 Uhr
- PlayStation 4: 14:00
- Xbox One: 16:00
Rainbow Six: Siege: Kommender Patch „Y2S3.0“ wird bis zu 42 GB groß
Sämtliche benutzerdefinierte Spiele stellt Ubisoft mit dem neuen Update komplett auf dedizierte Server um. Zwar steht diese Funktion bereits seit Februar 2016 zur Verfügung, allerdings war dies mit einigen Hindernissen verbunden. So musste die Lobby bisher innerhalb von zehn Minuten gefüllt sein, um eine Partie über einen dedizierten Server laufen zu lassen. Waren diese zehn Minuten erreicht, so kam eine Peer-to-Peer-Verbindung zu Stande. Diese Peer-to-Peer-Option entfällt nun komplett.
Weiterhin wird auch der Modus Terroristenjagd in Zukunft nur noch über die Server von Ubisoft laufen. Außerdem ist mit Patch 2.2.2 der In-Game-Chat überarbeitet worden, wodurch die Klangqualität bei einer geringeren Bandbreite besser ausfallen soll. Das Voice-Chat-System wird erst für die PC-Version veröffentlicht, später dann für die beiden Konsolen PlayStation 4 sowie Xbox One.
Patch 2.2.2 bringt zudem neue Animationen mit sich. Für viele Spieler war es bisher nicht ersichtlich, in welche Richtung der Charakter zielt, der durch das Fenster steigt, wodurch schnell Frust aufkam. Das neue Update lässt diesen Fehler der Vergangenheit angehören.
