The company has a system already in place
Rainbow Six Siege is one day away from its official launch date and the development team in charge of the shooter at Ubisoft Montreal says that it has a clear plan that it will use to deal with those gamers who take out their team because they want to spoil the experience of their fellow players.

The information comes from the official Twitter account of the studio in response to a question from a fan, but there are no details about the measures that will be taken to make sure that the impact of trolls is as low as possible.

Ubisoft will presumably aim to ban those who break the rules as quickly as possible or to force them to play in pools of gamers that include only those who have a negative reputation.

It's unclear how widespread team killing has been during the beta stage for the experience.

Rainbow Six Siege is a team-driven video game, and that means it's very important for the shooter to have a solid matchmaking system and to promote those gamers who are well behaved and are ready to help their squad mates rather than hinder them.

There's no single-player campaign and no option to play offline, which means that if the player base is not kept under control, it's possible that a wide number of players will abandon the experience quickly, especially given the fact that alternatives ranging from Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 to Halo 5: Guardians are on the market.

Rainbow Six Siege can be played on the PC, the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.

The shooter has a very Shakespeare driven launch trailer
Ubisoft Montreal is using the clip to show off some of the experiences that its tactics-driven combat game can generate, with a heavy dose of classic literature thrown in to emphasize the drama associated with players’ actions.

The studio has previously recruited Idris Elba to narrate some videos associated with Rainbow Six Siege, which teach the gamers some of the core mechanics of the game.

At the moment, Ubisoft admits that the game will run at 900p on the Xbox One and 1080p on the PlayStation 4 but says that it is continuing to perform optimization on both platforms.

The company has not said whether a launch day patch for Rainbow Six Siege will be released to deal with issues that were noticed during the recently ended beta stage.

An ambitious Season Pass for the shooter has already been revealed, and the first major piece of downloadable content will be offered in early 2016, with the developers saying that gamers can actually earn access to the new operators by simply playing.

For those who are in a hurry, the company is offering an option to use real-world money to get access to a range of items linked to both gameplay and cosmetic tweaks.

Ubisoft says Rainbow Six Siege will focus on destructible environments and a wide cast of characters, offering players a lot of choices when it come to their modes that they can engage with and the tactics they can employ.

@Rainbow6Game are you going to do anything about trolls that kill people on their team ? — Venom (@perry5356) November 28, 2015
