Rainbow Six Siege – Great FPS game only after CSGO prepared for free

​

There are countless ways to spend money in Rainbow Six Siege like participating in the annual battle pass, buying premium skins or boosters, seasonal alpha packages… Anyway, this is a game that requires players to use a minimum of $20 for ingame transactions. So is Rainbow Six? Siege capable of being played free in the future?

Director, Athanassoff shared that he and most of the Siege development team wanted that to happen. But Athanassoff is not the only one who has the right to decide on the price of the game, the director explained: “This is the company’s decision. Me and the development team want the game to be free at some point. We want everyone to be able to play Siege.”

Athanassoff said making Siege a free game is more complicated than adjusting the price. The reason is because Siege needs certain features to be a good and successful free-to-play game. One of those features is a good solution to prevent accidents.”smurfing“. Smurfing is a term that refers to a high level player using a low level account.

The issue of “smurfing” is a perennially controversial topic in multiplayer games. Last year, Valve reset and banned over 17,000 smurf accounts in Dota 2. Epic maintains a zero-tolerance policy for smurfs in Fortnite. Overwatch doesn’t penalize players with multiple accounts, but the ban is applied to cases where you intentionally lose or drag your account’s win rate by playing with highly qualified teammates.
