Ubisoft has announced new anti-toxicity measures for its tactical FPS Rainbow Six Siege X with the game’s latest update.
The Rainbow Six Siege X Y10S3.3 patch, which is set to hit the live servers today, will implement some important changes to Voice Chat Moderation that aim to reduce the overall toxicity in the game.
Following the new R6 patch, players will be able to see a new panel upon logging into the game that shows detected disruptive voice or text chat.
Players with a Reputation standing of Respectable and above will be able to use the new panel to provide feedback on any incorrect detections.
Lastly, the devs have also confirmed that Voice Chat detections for all players will be completely reset with this update, giving everyone a fresh start moving forward.
While many players appreciate the company’s efforts to address the toxicity in the game, a good portion of the community remains skeptical about how accurately the system will detect abusive behavior and worries that regular comms and friendly banter could be unfairly flagged.
How effective Ubisoft’s new methods are in combating toxicity in Siege X remains to be seen.
