'Rainbow Six Siege Year 2' Updates: What Can Fans Expect From Year 2
Keisuke Akio"Rainbow Six Siege Year Two" will be ramping up on many fronts, from quality of life game enhancements to new maps and new operators. Here is what we can expect from "Rainbow Six Siege Year 2."
New Operators
There are eight new operators planned each year for "Rainbow Six Siege" through four seasonal updates. It will be composed of four new attackers and four new defenders that would beef up the cast with each update.
At present, we have already seen and gotten to know Jackal and Mira as they were added with the Velvet Shell update. The developers do not plan to stop making more anytime soon. Creative Director Xavier Marquis once revealed to PC Gamer that they want a minimum of 50 operators for "Rainbow Six Siege."
Game Improvements
"Rainbow Six Siege Year Two" will have plenty of improvements in the area of matchmaking, server stability, and hit registration. At present, secondary services like voice chat are using a peer-to-peer system.
If one person is having issues, the whole system could break, forcing players to go back to the menu screen or cause problems with matchmaking. The peer-to-peer features should be moved to dedicated servers.
Game Modes
In "Rainbow Six Siege Year 2," players should not expect new game modes. The game developers are not planning to add any new ones anytime soon. Ubisoft is relying on their existing modes for the near future.
According to PVP Live, Mavis stated that the map can be different, the operators can be different, but they need something static and to them -- that is Siege mode. Although it may be disappointing to know that no new game modes are in the works, the new characters and maps would frequently modify the metagame. In addition, more characters connote more team compositions and "Rainbow Six Siege" will still be an endless puzzle.
