Throughout Vector Glare we’ve continued to address cheats that are affecting players. Here are some that have been worked on since our last Anti-Cheat Status Update:

• Various Instant kill cheats
  
• Various Infinite ammo cheats
  
• Teleport hack
  
• Self revive cheat

[h2]REPORTING DISCONNECTED PLAYERS[/h2]
With the new season we increase the window of opportunity in terms of reporting! Players who have disconnected from a match session can now be reported.

Available only in Ranked and Unranked playlists.
Disconnected player information will now be persistent through the scoreboard.
All categories of reports are available.


[h2]MATCH REPLAY REPORTING[/h2]
We understand that it’s not always possible to report a player during a live match due to disconnections, similar names, or maybe you notice something after the fact while reviewing your matches.

Being able to report players during a match replay is an additional step that we’ve taken to make it easier for the community to give feedback when it comes to suspicious players.

With adding these tools, we hope to continue to provide a stream-lined way for players to report suspicious/toxic individuals.

For the best results please make sure to follow these next steps!


[h2]HOW YOU CAN HELP[/h2]
Report Cheaters In-Game

In-game reporting continues to be the best way to get your reports to us. If you’re reporting a cheater on social media, the following can help us to identify and sanction them.

• Clear video or photo proof of the incident
  
• The offending player’s Username and User ID
  
• Match ID for any relevant matches
  
• Date and time of the incident
  

Think you might have seen a cheater? You can use Match Replay to double check.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Since 2014, Siege Tales has been creating cartoons about different video games. In 2018, he discovered Rainbow Six Siege and fell in love with the game. Playing it countless hours with his friends lead him to start an animated cartoon series based on the game – he made over 100 episodes.

Siege Tales aims to use a simple design but keep it clear and recognizable. With this goal in mind, his art style has been changing a lot throughout his journey as a YouTuber. His inspiration often comes from music which helps him getting ideas and already envision his animations, resulting in rhythmed videos.

To celebrate a milestone on his YouTube Channel, Siege Tales had the idea to create a headgear for Caveira. Today, we can celebrate with him another achievement as he had the opportunity to design a whole operator bundle! Ela was the best character to transpose his ideas into a bundle. And of course, his iconic Catveira needed to make an appearance!

Head to Siege Tales’ YouTube channel to watch all his videos! Want to see more? Tik Tok, Instagram, Twitter.
