If you stand at this spot in the Billiards Room for one second, you\u2019ll die, so be careful.<\/font><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In <em>Rainbow Six Siege<\/em>, the game tracks whether players are indoors or outdoors, so if a player on the defending team steps outside for one second, the attacking team is notified. This system is in place to prevent defenders from gaining a huge advantage by going outdoors. It\u2019s also impossible for defenders to go outdoors during the preparation phase, a short period before the start of the match where defenders get set up to face the opposing team. This current bug seems to be related to game\u2019s outdoor detection system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This problem that some players are calling a \u201cDeath Spot\u201d has been confirmed in the Billiards Room of the Coastline map. For some reason, when approaching the counter near the middle of the room, the game flags the player as being outdoors. In other words, despite being inside, the player is treated as if they aren\u2019t. This room and the neighboring hookah lounge are frequented spots and are often passed through when looking at enemy entry points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The player dies in the above video, but it looks like a fall death, possibly because the player is considered outdoors which is normally impossible during the preparation phase. If a defending player stands on the spot during the action phase, they are just detected as if they were outside.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6998\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184424-header-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>When I tried standing on the spot myself, I was also detected as being outside. And as if they were outside, Echo\u2019s drones also become inoperable on the spot until you go and pick them up. It only takes a second before the game alerts the attackers someone is outdoors, so it\u2019s possible that someone could trigger the alert before they\u2019re even aware of what\u2019s happening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This isn\u2019t the first time this sort of issue has popped up in the game. A similar situation previously occurred on the Favela map. There are also cases where a defending player can go prone near an open door and have part of their body outside while still being considered indoors.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u30d5\u30a1\u30d9\u30fc\u30e9\u306e\u30a2\u30f3\u30c8\u30a2\u30d1\u30fc\u30c82F\u306b\u3042\u308b\u76e3\u8996\u30ab\u30e1\u30e9\u306e\u4e0b\u3001\u3053\u3053\u5c4b\u5916\u5224\u5b9a\u3067\u7279\u5b9a\u3055\u308c\u308b\u306e\u3067\u77e5\u3063\u3066\u304a\u304f\u3068\u826f\u304d\u304b\u306a\u3041\uff5e<br><br> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/PS4share?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#PS4share<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Oftn1VIhVp\">https:\/\/t.co\/Oftn1VIhVp<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0I6nKAdQLh\">pic.twitter.com\/0I6nKAdQLh<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \u30a8\u30eb\u30e9\u30a4\u30c4 (@lexus_ux) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lexus_ux\/status\/1332697116712472577?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 28, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption><font size=\"2\"><strong>Tweet Translation:<br><\/strong>It\u2019s probably good to know that under the camera of the Aunt\u2019s Apartment room in Favela is considered outdoors.<\/font><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The reason for this current problem is unknown, but the delay in implementing a disconnection timer when cameras and drones are outdoors may provide a hint. The feature was planned to arrive with the Year 6 Season 4, High Calibre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <em>Rainbow Six Siege<\/em>, defending players can use gadgets outdoors to search for the attacking team. An update was planned that would place a time limit on gadgets that were outside, but the implementation was delayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On older maps in the game, the outside\/inside detection was designed to be done manually, and this caused problems where cameras placed on ceilings would sometimes be detected as being outside, which disables them. Fixing these issues will require modifications to each map which has caused the delay. Oddly enough, Ubisoft uses the Billiards Room as their example when explaining the issue.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u27a1\ufe0fWhat happened?<br><br>Our maps are generally tailored to larger, less sneaky gadgets.<br><br>Unfortunately, they don&#39;t allow for accurate detection of cam positions (inside vs outside) so we need to refine spaces to match this new mechanic.<br><br>See below for an explanation \u2935 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TibN7wMXBI\">pic.twitter.com\/TibN7wMXBI<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Rainbow Six Siege (@Rainbow6Game) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Rainbow6Game\/status\/1463575795490775045?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 24, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar issues up to this point have been fixed with updates, so the new death spot probably will be as well.
