Rainbow 6 - Y5S3.1 PATCH NOTES

Posted: 24 Sep 2020 01:33 AM PDT

The Y5S3.1 update contains primarily a backlog of bug fixes from the TS that did not make it in time for the season update.

UPDATES

VOTE-TO-KICK REMOVAL

In this update we will be removing the vote-to-kick feature from Quick Match (vote-to-kick was previously only available in Quick Match.)

We've been monitoring the use of vote-to-kick for the last seasons and have confirmed that it is indeed a highly abused feature used as a disruption tool and that it is considered by most to be a pain point in this playlist. Considering that it brings more tension to Quick Match, we decided to turn it off.
