In addition, the post stated that Ubisoft has ‘discussed the current situation with our legal team’, and will send cease and desist letters to those enabling the attacks. Ubisoft has said that the ‘ worst offenders’ that instigated the DDoS attacks will be banned from the game next week, and waves of sanctions will ‘continue as needed’ for PC and console players. However, because three Rainbow Six Siege matches are hosted per server, this affected all matches instead of just the one the attacker was participating in. By causing server lag, players would become frustrated and leave the match, therefore allowing the DDoS attacker to be rewarded with rank points. It is theorised that the attacks are a retaliation against the update’s reset of multiplayer rankings. Or, like the ‘bad actors’ manipulating Dota 2 by cheating and using smurf accounts, you’ll get yourself permanently banned.ĭenial of service attacks have been affecting Rainbow Six Siege since the start of Ember Rise, the third season of the multiplayer competitive shooter that brought two new Operators, new gadgets, and a Kanal map rework. Like the case of World of Warcraft Classic, there’s a considerable chunk of the community who become cross and grumpy because they can’t play the game they’ve waited all week to get stuck into.
Rainbow Six Siege DDoS attackers that targeted Operation Ember Rise will be banned from the game for ever, Ubisoft has announced (via PCGamesN and ZDNet).
