Excellent game, ubi has dont a fantastic job of fixing gameplay balances and ironing out the many tech issues that were present at launch. Being an avid CS player I really took to the game instantly, after not playing Siege for nearly 2 years (early-mid 2016) am glad I came back at to it since the game is at a much better state now. I remember very high ping severs and uplay constantly messing up the connection mid-game back then now almost all of that is gone, some minor tech issue are present but that depends from PC to PC. My only complaint is that the operators cost a lot of renown (in-game currency you get from playing) and if you get the starters edition even the basic operators takes 15-16 hours of play to unlock even one operator. The seaon pass opeartors are worse costing 25k nenown and taking almost 25-35 hours to unlock or cost 5 USD per operator which is a bit steep imo, other than that ranked matchmaking is still in beta and in a broken state even after so many years so they need that fixed as well. Also connections errors still exist but are less frequent than before.

Just dont buy the starters edition its not worth it as unlocking the other base operators will take a crap ton of time instead buy the standard edition or the more advanced editions if you want extra R6 credits (currency used to unlock yearly operators) or just flat out get them with the season passes/gold or complete editions. Lastly if you dont have a very powerful GPU avoid downloading the ultra hd textures DLC as it is a whopping 34gb download which you wont use if you dont have that sort of GPU and with each new operator and map that size keeps increasing so yeah go to Properties -> DLC -> unselect the ultra hd textures pack manually to stop it from downloading or even after you have downloaded to not use/remove it.
