OPERATION CHIMERA UPDATE
OPERATION CHIMERA PATCH

For the full list of changes, check out the patch notes at the bottom of this article, via Ubisoft. Patch 3.1's final big tweaks are the removal of Bartlett University from the Casual map playlist, to be replaced by Yacht, and that you can no longer walk on top of deployable shields. If you do interrupt a reload (by any method) and then reload again shortly afterward, you'll be able to resume it after some key moment-after throwing away an old magazine, for example-rather than having to undergo the entire animation again. After the coming patch, you'll be able to interrupt a reload animation by aiming down a weapon's sights. Ubisoft has also changed a few things regarding reloads. The reasoning for this is that 'making Blitz faster is the next logical step to making him a more attractive choice and help him close the gap, as he really shines when he manages to get in close quarter with isolated defenders.' The final Operator tweak pertains to Blitz, who has been made a 2 speed / 2 armor Operator, having previously been 1 speed / 3 armor. 'Having impact grenades for faster rotations is a better fit for his playstyle,' Ubisoft states.

Kapkan is also losing his impact grenades, in favor of barbed wires, as he apparently had too many tasks during the preparation phase as it was. This loadout change will force her to rely on teammates for rotation holes, or to pick the shotgun if she wants to do them herself.' 'She was too good at doing all the roaming work by herself,' the developer said, 'preparing rotations, being warned by Concussion mines, and of course killing with her SMG.

OPERATION CHIMERA UPDATE

In addition to adding the two new Operators, Finka and Lion, and the new co-op Outbreak event, the update introduces some gameplay tweaks and changes a bunch of Operators.Įla has been a popular pick since her release, but she's to be nerfed in the new update, as Ubisoft believes she is still 'picked way too often.' Her SMG will suffer from increased recoil and deal less damage than before, and her impact grenades have been replaced by a deployable shield. Rainbow Six Siege's latest DLC, Operation Chimera, is coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC on March 6, and with it now live on the Technical Test Server, Ubisoft has released its patch notes.
