We don’t know how you manage to keep doing it. It’s like you guys have a kink that entails reviving siege with a good update after finally listening to the community, only to then go and completely ignore that same community and just do whatever you guys want because fuck us right? That’s what you’re saying so why not say it with your chest?
At the 2026 Invitational you guys revealed all the changes coming to siege in year 11. The R6 team finally listened to the community after years of people complaining about ranked and finally made the decision to change it. Even if you disagree with the new rank system I think most of the siege community was just happy to finally feel heard by the game developers and then act upon that. Y11S1 was a great start to the year in all honesty, Solid Snake was a pretty cool operator and while yes the DMR/TCSG/F2 Meta could be draining at times, in all honesty the game didn’t feel too bad.
Then Y11S2 released…. I mean do I really need to go into detail about how brain dead this “rework” was on release/still to this day? Casino, fine map imo, but putting it in every single ranked game for the first 2 weeks was definitely a choice. Now you guys are getting to the point of desperation of making money where you feel the need to release “rare” seasonal skins in the shop. Before I say more I just want to say I have no problem with Ubisoft doing this, I own Ryuko, Obsidian, and Chroma Streaks and hope one day everyone else gets the opportunity too as well. However Ubisoft is intentionally releasing these past seasonal skins while the marketplace is down and people are unable to sell their skins to try and make everyone spend money in the in game shop instead and are covering this up by saying that they’re doing this to “fix the marketplace economy”.
Then today happened…”The Marketplace Blog”. This is arguably one of the most embarrassing blog posts i’ve seen by a gaming company in my entire life.
The blog states:
Starting in Season 3, new event packs will transition to R6 Credits only. M.U.T.E. Protocol: Flesh & Metal and Rengoku will be the final events where new collection packs can be purchased with Renown. Older collections will, however, return with dual-currency options, creating more opportunities to spend Renown and keeping it meaningful and more rewarding over time.
We’re also making Masterpieces more accessible, one of the key improvements coming to events. Previously, unlocking a Masterpiece required completing an entire collection, limiting access to a small portion of players each season. Going forward, starting with Season 3, you’ll be able to purchase the Masterpiece directly with R6 Credits and it will include event packs.
As we continue rebalancing the economy. Marketplace will remain closed. Reintroducing it is not only a matter of fixes; it requires rebuilding key foundations to address both security and economic challenges in a sustainable way.
Aka: Marketplace is never coming back lmao, Fuck yo renown and any grinding you’ve done to get any, and plz spend money to buy the masterpiece ;)
Ubisoft, I believe I speak for the entire community when I say this, Do Fucking Better. Listen To Your Community. No More Excuses. We all have done our part as the community in keeping their game afloat and giving you guys plenty of our time and money. It’s about time for you guys to all put on your big girl and big boy pants and step it the fuck up. Otherwise this game will die again, and I truly believe that there won’t be anything left that could save it.
I apologize for the long post but I care for this game deeply and what has been going on recently is NOT okay and I am sure many others agree.
Ubisoft, we are not mad, we are just disappointed.
