yes, plus you're playing on a console. you're lucky that your teammates are not just walking into walls the entire time

In Rainbow Six Siege some of them choke up so hard when they face an enemy and never react in time whatsoever. Like they'll be shot at and they'll live long enough to aim at the wall before dying

That wouldn't be so much of a problem if they weren't doing it in FUCKING RANKED/COMPETITVE mode smh

Overwatch in general is mind numbingly boring. I have no idea how people are still playing that after the first few weeks. More power to them but holy shit is it boring.

I like everything about Overwatch except actually playing it

Rainbow Six Siege is like Overwatch but with counter-terrorist organizations and actual customization

honestly thats been my experience with rainbow six siege (on xbox one) as well.

i play and enjoy console games, but 99% of players for most competitive video games are really bad. it's not just that they suck at aiming (which they do) but the reaction times are really slow and they have almost no spacial or tactical awareness. dudes will camp out in areas where they can clearly be seen by other players, will just charge into rooms without checking them out first, walk around while looking down the sights, sprint past enemies, etc.

pretty much the only console games I have played where i think the players have a decent skill level are CoD, because you barely have to aim in that (more about just straight up reaction time with no care for spacial awareness)

Spot on. Everytime I see a dude get killed in Siege it's like "man where tf is your peripheral vision"

One time I saw a dude in a 1v1 sidestep into a bear trap placed in the middle of the fucking floor and lose the round, I left that game immediately after

Honestly I'd rather play with random newbies than the tryhards who take the game way too seriously and is barking orders constantly

It can be mind-numbing without randoms, too.

This was your first mistake. Play team deathmatch
